"You said it yourself Kain! There are only two sides to your coin!" "Apparently so, but suppose you throw a coin enough times... Suppose that one day, it lands on its edge." One of my favorite lines in all of gaming.

Raziel’s sacrifice at the end of the series showed that he wasn’t lying about choosing integrity when he first met Kain again after his resurrection. From the start, he really did have the right to judge Kain.

I remember watching my uncle play blood omen 1 a few times as a 6. I never played or followed the series closely but always knew I wanted to go back and check it out 25 years later. I just randomly decided to look for a retrospective on this title 2 days ago and I must say I am truly impressed by the level of detail you put into this video. I have seem quite a few retrospectives and yours is one of the best I've seen on any series. Thanks for the high level of care, effort and detail you went to make this video. I know feel like I can truly appreciate this ground breaking series. I hope square will decide the remake to the original as well as a sequel.

Have I replayed this whole series just the other month? Yes. Have I seen everything youtube has to offer on Legacy of Kain? Yes. Will I watch this 3 hour LoK retrospective? Hell yes!

I now accept that Defiance is the best ending and closure to the series that we're going to get without some soulless corporate cash grab

There is something about these unique, early, and nearly forgotten fantasy console games that feels so iconic to this day. Games like Vexx and Sphinx and the Cursed Mummy, You can even kind of notice how fantasy games like Legacy of Kain have had an impact on the storytelling of similar fantasy games over the years like Darksiders and the God of War series.

it's so sad that this series has generally been forgotten. I can't think of another work of fiction that has affected me as much. Not only did it get me into video games, but it's what made me want to start writing.

The fact that 200k ppl have watched a 3 hour long video about a near 20 year old series says a lot. Thank you for this amazing video. I can only imagine how many hours it took you to make this happen. Time fades even legend. Kain

"Kain is deified" Just the start of that game still, to this day, gives me chills.

In a world full of remakes/remasters of some of the amazing gems of the past, I can say that this series is something that would be a good target for that.

The intro cutscene to soul reaver is probably my favorite intro cutscene of all time. Another scene that sticks out to me was was raziel was examining the glass morals in soul reaver 2. I just remember how interesting the world was. I never finished the series but finding out that raziel dies at the end made me tear up. He was my favorite character

This series was a pillar of gaming throughout my teens. One of the greatest gaming universes and story I've ever experienced. It's unfortunate that Kain never got a proper ending to his story and this series has been abandoned seemingly for good. Thanks for taking the time to shine a light on this classic series!

I was obsessed with this series when I was younger and I didn't know anyone else who played. Very cool to see that it has such a big and dedicated fanbase.

I can’t believe I watched 3 hours worth of history and retrospective about I game I’ve only seen my Dad play when I was 3-5. This was a well put together video and the lore of this game is LEGENDARY. 💯

I'm almost 40 years old, and I remember when the first Blood Omen released when I was barely in middle school. I instantly fell in love, the story, dialog, characters, game play and open world gripped me from the start. To this day whenever talkin bout the best vampire ever with my friends, I sing Kain's praises. Edward who? Dracula who? Blade....well naw Blade is ah bad a$$ too lolz.

An interesting observation I've heard about Blood Omen 1 is how at the beginning of the game, there are enough human enemies for you to avoid killing innocents. But later, as monsters become more common, you get to a point where you are forced to feed at every opportunity. This could be a metaphor for Kain slowly losing his humanity.

Christmas morning 1996, my grandma bought me a PlayStation and one game, Legacy of Kain. Terrific memories as a gamer. Thanks so much for taking the time to make this vid.

i don't know why there hasn't been a reboot of this series yet. it's quite literally one of the best game series ever lore-wise, and now that the times and tech have caught up, i couldn't think of a series that deserves a reboot more.
