Originally inspired from:

The original cutscene of this conversation is what
introduced me to the Legacy of Kain series some years ago.
I have been inspired by the multiple entries,
particularly for the story, characters and amazing voice talent.

More than anything, I wanted to commemorate Soul Reaver 2's
18th anniversary this month. (Curious how it falls on Halloween.)
It's not often that I get to animate other video games I love.

There are some stunning 3D fanarts of Legacy of Kain online.
I know these models & effects don't quite measure up since MMD was pushed to its limits,
(I failed to discover a way to manipulate Raziel's Wraith Blade so that it would circle his arm)
But regardless, I had a lot of fun throwing this little re-imagined scene together.

I just hope one day the Legacy of Kain series gets an official reboot that it deserves.

So happy about the remaster announcement!

[thyeconomy]

The English in this game already surpasses the public school system standards.

[trial_with_an_error]

“Hate me, but do it honestly.”

I don’t know why, but this to me is Kain’s greatest line.

[MCPunk]

This seven minute exchange between Raziel and Kain has more thought and care put into it than 99% of modern video games combined.

[NBDYSPCL]

I just realised the irony in Kain saying "if Mobius told you I was on the underside of hell would you throw yourself into oblivion to pursue me" as, in a roundabout way, that's what happens.

[Nathanelsematters]

"But suppose you throw a coin enough times...Suppose one day it lands on its' edge."
What a quote.

[sebu]

Them: I have a bachelor of english language and literature.


Me: Well ... I played Soul Reaver 1, 2 and Leagacy of Kain: Defiance.

[OmegaHulk]

5:50 Can I just say that I love that little point that Kain does when he says,
"There's a Third option."

[Silver-Kaitou]

"Let's drop the moral posturing, shall we?!"

I love this line so much and I don't know why.

Edit: Thanks for all the great replies. I love this community.

[autisticlootist]

"Textures by the Hylden"... My god... the Hylden! We walked right into their trap...

[lordiblees]

Kain: "Isn't it customary to grant the condemned a final request?"
Raziel: "I recall no such courtesy from you."

Goodness gracious. Lines spoken in this game read like an extremely well-written novel. What a game.

[LegacyofRei]

As I stumbled across this ancient revived edifice, a wisp of the reaver's energy was drawn to the subscribe button, illuminating it. This created a beacon of sorts for the notifaction bell. Whenever I find myself needing some nostalgia these videos would draw me back to safety restoring it.

[volnutt]

I'd pay just to have all of the scenes recreated. I watch this series just the cut scenes more often than i probably should

[hatoru]

I swear the story and voice acting of this game was a masterpiece through and through. Of all the games I played the legacy of Kain series was one of the few game series who's stories that most engaging and I never grown tired of it.

[johnsourvelis]

man, the dialogue this series has, its phenomenal

[matodragonespor]

I love how Kain scolding Raziel for hiding his true motivations behind a courtain of disinterested morality is the most reproduced part of the video

[danpasquale]

Why the fuck has this legendary series not been remastered for next generation console yet? This story is magnificent, the voice acting/script superb, and the character development/plot twist were ahead of its time. The legacy of Kain needs to come back bottomline.

[NewExile]

The chemistry between Bell and Templeman really made this something special. I love the way they play off each other the whole time.

[michaelburke]

Dialogue aged like fine wine. Such a shame Dark Prophecy was canceled :(

[SHDW-nfki]

Consider that Kain timed his speech exactly


Raziel really is that predictable
