Should I play it?
Legacy of Kain
No
Sure. Is a good series.
Yes
Why?
And why should I play the hack and slash before the later action entries?
You should play it because it's where the story starts. Of course if you're a zoomer who just can't into Blood Omen, you can skip it and just start with Soul Reaver when KAIN WAS DEIFIED.
As for why it's a good series, it's because of the writing and voice-acting. Gameplay is only there to fill in time between story beats, and those beats are greatness beyond your wildest imaginings.
>And why should I play the hack and slash before the later action entries?
Do you mean why play blood omen before soul reaver? It's a good setup to the series and keeps the lore a bit more grounded before it gets crazy. Gameplay is fun if you're looking for something 2d zelda-like. You could play soul reaver first if you really want to but it's nice to check out blood omen at lease once before or after soul reaver.
>why?
Because it's gay and written by a whore.
>Why?
Great plot, atmosphere, and lore.
the actual gameplay isn't to everyone's taste though. Each title also has it's own spin on gameplay so if you find yourself struggling with one title and don't care too much about story you can move on to the next..
VAE VICTUS
Bad gameplay, good voice acting, stupid plot which you might enjoy if you have a low IQ
This is lies, it's a clunky unplayable piece of shit swj bait.
>story beats
Story beats by Dre
Looks like we have shitposters in this oblivion.
Yea Forums is destroyed.
Legacy of Load screens
cast him in
That's why you play the PC version of blood omen.
It can't be helped.
Wish it was on gog.
>I only watch movies for the soundtrack
Didnt know it was on pc. Was 12 when it came out on psx. I just remember the load times were long as hell.
I don't think anyone will penalize you for downloading an abandonware copy of the PC version.
I think the load times were always a bit much back in the day on any platform but modern PCs are fucking fast now so loading isn't really an issue.
Its not on my abandoneware though and the other sites look skeevy.
Also got no idea if it works on modern pcs or its one of those games that shits itself.
I downloaded it from somewhere like a year ago, works fine for me.
Shit, it used to be on myabandonware but it looks like they want you to buy the game on the PS store. I found that the PC version worked with no hassle other than getting it setup for a modern controller.
shit game not enough overly verbose monologues
Post more Spider Man edits, please. My HDD got busted before I made a backup with them.
The PC ports of all the LoK games are horrendous. The controls alone will make you want to shove your fist through your monitor. Emulate the PS1 version of Blood Omen, Then emulate the Dreamcast version of Soul Reaver, then the PS2 version of the rest of the games in 4k with Widescreen cheats. Simple.
But I don't have many.
>ripoff is better than the original
But they're both great?
I'll take voodoo Vin Diesel over theater vampire time travel bullshit any day.
Tell me about Shadow Man.
When enemies die, they sound like real life pigs getting slaughtered.
>t.grew up with farmers
Also the game is atmospheric as fuck and spooky too.
Also forgot to mention, it's also the best 3d metroidvania.
Okay then. But can you ride a turtle?
It's the best Vin Diesel game along with Butcher Bay.
It's pretty neato but the controls are a little janky
Blood Omen > Soul Reaver
I know there is at least one more, where he sits on a tree.
Why would you sit at home and play video games when it's 70 degerees and you could mow some grass?
