I personally love the method of story telling where theirs narration from the characters to further dive into the characters and cleverly lore dump. It’s a smart way to sneak past technological limitations and it eventually just became its style even when the technology got better
4:07:18 “There’s no way like a kid from elementary school knows a quarter of these words” Me 20 years ago: Hmph, a quarter?? More like 2 quarters ahh 🤪
playing the first game also helps put into perspective what a cool game this is. Kain completely fucks the world up and over, and getting revenge on him for doing that is a great continuation of the story. the massive implications of what happens in the first game being show in the second game really made this feel like a impactful story. can't say the same for the rest of the series.
I’ve always loved the Legacy of Kain games! Im glad you played this. Did he end up playing the 2nd soul reaver? As of the time of writing this, I don’t see it uploaded anywhere if he did.
Oooooooo it looooooks sooooooo gooooooood! Bro this looks great! They did a great job. I loved this game as a kid, but never got very far cuz it was kinda clunky. Does it play well too?
At least I could tell where I was going in the second one. Still wish I finished the first. Got as far as the wraith blade. Those heart piece things aren’t mandatory. In my experience at least. Now if only they covered Defiance. And the Blood Omens.
I’ve always looked at this game through rose tinted glasses, having only reached the second boss when I was young, and playing it again shattered them, my god the puzzles in this game can be pretty asinine and every boss is a puzzle. I still like it because the atmosphere in this game is on point but I really hope they switched it up in soul reaver 2.
there us a world legend. in game notes added as a feature in the remaster. Also there 2 entities that will remind you where to go if you speak to them. game doesnt hold the players hand much. keep in mind it was made in a time where all these dev tips and clues didnt exist yet. This game is a pioneer in the action adventure genre but i hope you can forgive its rather, unforgiving qualities and enjoy the story to the fullest. just a little msg and humble request from a die hard fan :)
After so many years of nothing, its unbelievable to see Legacy Of Kain getting love again. 🥲Hopefully it does well enough to where we can see the series continue. Or at least have an epilogue (as it kinda just 'ended on a cliffhanger with Defiance ). Even though It never really had the best gameplay...man does It legitimately have one of the greatest stories ever conceived in videogaming. 🖤
Bro the voice acting is high class top-notch shit !
Legacy of Kain has the most stacked voice acting in gaming history and I will die on that hill.

I really miss tony Jay :( he was like every great villain in my childhood!
3:22 me on my last squat rep
When my favorite millionaire streamer gets completely confounded by baby's first block puzzle. 😣

I played and learned. Educational game.

Oh child, you know nothing of Kami lol

Its weird without the music
Hi TH-cam!
Oooooooo it looooooks sooooooo gooooooood! Bro this looks great! They did a great job. I loved this game as a kid, but never got very far cuz it was kinda clunky. Does it play well too?
noway i use too love this game
What’s with the audio? Game sounds muffled and nearly no music.
If I recall, the iconic opening music is actually by a band and often get's claimed on TH-cam.
The 2nd one is the best in the series… wtf???
i here no music
it gets copywrited
Probably copyright reasons
Possible copyright issue?
no not here, there
@@charg1nmalaz0r51 Then get a damn copywright and lose some money for a vid, do a 10 min vid jesus.
Wtf is this.
Like he knows what games do well and not. Maybe let people stream what they want instead of discouraging
Play soulreaver 2 it is much more accessible than the first and has more interesting story
I disagree the combat is modern sure but I prefer the strategic combat in 1 and also the exploration is a downgrade in sr2.
Okay!

I got as far as an air tunnel, had to turn on the fan so I could fly upwards. I've never played the sequels either, would like to one day.

Bro making remakes but failing to get the rights for the music...
edit: it's been done in post, thankfully
The music is being filtered out, you can hear the whole thing muffled.
Thanks either google or twitch for that.
That is not the game.
@@FeekyChucker that's insane
God this game is hard without cheating a few times. Soul reaver 2 toned it down a bit.
How do you know which way to go and what too do.
