Kevin95 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Soul Reaver was a truly masterpiece. Too bad the next 3 games in the series weren't even nearly as good as SR1 was. But still, I would really like to see a reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still, I would really like to see a reboot. I thought Defiance was a great game. but yeah SR2 was not great and the less said about blood omen 2 the better. The story across all the games was excellent though and they left the story wide open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

julesthegr8 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 One of the most epic games ever!!! I will buy it when/if it comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangepop1 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I loved the series. One question though: If and when they decide to "reboot" it, who would they get to replace Tony Jay(Elder God)? I don't think anyone else could match a voice as powerful as his. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dz06lt Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I would hope for a new Kain game before a remake of the originals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewVincent Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Definitely psyched about this one! Hope it will get past rumor stage! A reboot of the series would be incredible, albeit I would also LOVE to see a collection release, just to get back on the old titles and relive the incredible story. I've never really managed to finish every game in the series and just getting more in-depth with the actual plot would be magnificent (true some are available through PSN but still :/) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure_Breed-1 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 my cuzin had the game, cant remember which one. was fun up untill this one point........ we never found out how to get past it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrJackel666 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 hmmm this could be good but also this could ruin the series ..we'll just have to wait and see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Soze Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I've been waiting for something new from the Legacy of Kain series for a long time. I always liked Kain more than Raziel, but Soul Reaver and Defiance were the stronger games. I remember the opening movie for Soul Reaver just blew me away. A friend let me borrow it and I didn't realize it was a sequel to Blood Omen. My jaw dropped when I saw Kain sitting on the Pillars of Nosgoth. I think I still have my original copy of Blood Omen for PSone. I might have to dust it off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eiloreen Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I think that this saga is already dead. Maybe kain and raziel don't die so easily. Stab!!! stab!! stab!!! xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Fusion Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I hope this is real, because this would be something I've been waiting for since a long time. I would also like to add, how cool would it be if this game was seriously open world, a sand box game, in which you could not only travel to the spirit world, but also back and forth through time. Just a little thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spectralheaven Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Why would they make a reboot of the series is beyond me. They have a perfectly good story to follow, the Defiance left me wanting for more. I know that it wouldn't be the same without the Elder God voice actor but still, reboots these days don't mean anything good - it's usually a dumbed down clone for masses that doesn't catch half of the atmosphere of the original Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryakamanu Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Doesn't interest me much so far, but makes me want to go back to Blood Omen again. I still have the disc lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A reboot , which if it sells well, then followed by a new game in the franchise makes the most sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1NG_NAZARA Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) REVIVE!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.vgleaks.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/nosgoth-4.jpg War for Nosgoth mentioned in AMD driver update, Steam Database | VG247 Legacy of Kain revival suggested by AMD drivers | Joystiq 'War For Nosgoth' (Legacy of Kain) title appears in AMD Drivers. - BE EXCITED! BE VERY MUCH EXCITED!!! NOTE: It is unknown as of yet if it is a reboot or a sequel. Edited May 29, 2013 by K1NG_NAZARA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keyser Soze Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) I'm hoping the game moves the series further along rather than rebooting it, but at this point I'll take any LoK I can get. I'd love to here some news at E3 about this. ...I know that it wouldn't be the same without the Elder God voice actor... We wouldn't need a voice for the Elder God if they move the series forward. There are plenty of people who can do a deep voice and I don't think I don't think it would be a big deal to do a reboot without the original voice actor. He had a recognizable voice but I don't think there's anything the did that was irreplaceable. Edited May 29, 2013 by Keyser Soze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1NG_NAZARA Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 If War for Nosgoth is a sequel to Defiance (which may be as the ending [spoiler=2292854]Where Janos became the Hylden Lord and Kain destroyed the Elder God with the help of the fully powered Soul Reaver [thanks to Raziel's death] left room for a War against the Hylden race and since the Elder God [in spoiler], there is no need for a new voice actor) It makes more sense if this is going to be a direct sequel of Defiance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 That upcoming Nosgoth game is sadly both multiplayer and PC only which makes no sense given that the Kain series has always been single player and better known on consoles, Square Enix is run by a bunch of fucking idiots.

graffix13 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Didn't Crystal Dynamics put out the first Legacy of Kain? They should reboot that series like they have with Tomb Raider. Soul Reaver is one of my favorites. I downloaded the ps1 port to my Vita, and while it's still fun it could use an update IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
