@psychicentertainment51166 жыл бұрын
Not as easy as you'd think. If it were a movie -- like a real move, not a fan film; a commercial film -- it would be better if the movies focused on a different point in the series imho, like maybe before SR and after BO2, or maybe after Defiance. Reason being that because the dialogue is SO iconic, it might ruin it for some people to hear an actor say it differently than the game. I'm not even talking about dumbing down dialogue, I'm just talking about how the lines are spoken and delivered. And actors are *not* puppets, so you can't just "make" them say it a certain way, because then it becomes artificial. Although, I'm SERIOUSLY considering, as a film maker, getting an entertainment attorney and getting the film rights from Square.

Agreed with all the requests to re-release this series with upgraded graphics. Personally, I'd love to see the original games all rolled into one mega game for such a re-release, one flowing into the next with the same updated look. The two Soul Reaver games in particular would benefit from this, I think. Seguing to Blood Omen 2 would be awkward, but there'd be an opportunity to clarify its context (for ages I didn't understand that it was the result of the time tampering at the end of Soul Reaver 2). Anyway, my two cents. I'm sure there are many that'd prefer it stay a series of distinct games.

BO2 follows Defiance, storyline-wise. Chronologically, it's the Kain from Blood Omen 1, before the events of Soul Reaver 1, but taking into account the time line changes put into place in Defiance. Hence it being about Janos and the Hylden Lord, and Kain's rise to power simultaneously.

No it's not, and actually... The name of the Franchise is "Legacy of Kain", because SR is the second game of the series, being the direct sequel of Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain. And it has 3 games afterwards, these are: LoK: SR 2 (SR sequel), LoK: Defiance (SR saga's ending), and Blood Omen 2 (this "chronologically" takes place before SR 1, but it shows what happened to the past after the time travels that Raziel and Kain started after Soul Reaver's Ending). Blood Omen and SR 1 are for PS1, the rest for PS 2

The way they had Kain moving the whole time, adjusting the controls as he and Raziel have their little argument certainly made it more interesting. Plus some of Kain's moral posturing was taken out in the redone dialog. And the Elder making false promises that once he goes through the portal he will be beyond his influence.

How could could you transform a Sarafan Priest into a vampire?" vs "I found the Tomb of Sarafan, Kain. How could you profane a priest by turning him into a vampire?!"). But the one line that gives me chills is "These chambers offer insight for those patient enough to look. In your haste to find me, perhaps you have no gazed deeply enough. Our futures, are predestined. Moebius foretold mine a millenium ago. We each play out the parts fate has written for us; we are compelled ineluctably down preordained paths. Free will...is an illusion." Probably one of the greatest monologues ever written.

Now appearently, the legacy of kain lost worlds site has digged the game for such a time they actually FOUND this material, and released a trailer for a 2020 release. They haven't said they'll make it playable (they haven't excluded it when asked tho) but they'll surely reveal it to everyone. For more info, you can find the trailer by tapping "soul reaver lost world" on the searchbar.
