Legacy of Kain™ Soul Reaver 1&2 Remastered - First 20 Minutes (No Commentary Gameplay) · No Commentary Gaming

0:04
Cain is deified. The clans tell tales of him.
0:09
Few know the truth. He was mortal once as well.
0:14
We all. However, his contempt for
0:17
humanity drove him to create Me and my brethren.
0:22
I am Razio, first born of his lieutenants.
0:27
I stood with Cain and my brethren at the dawn of the
0:30
Empire. I have served him a Millennium.
0:37
Over time, we became less human and more divine.
0:45
Cain would enter the state of change and emerge with a new
0:48
gift some years after the Master.
0:56
Our evolution would follow until I had the honor of surpassing my
1:02
Lord. For my transgression, I earned a
1:31
new kind of reward. There
1:54
was only one possible outcome. My eternal damnation.
2:04
I Bazzio was to suffer the fate of traitors and weaklings, to
2:09
burn forever in the bowels of the Lake of the Dead.
2:16
Cast him. In.
2:29
Tumbling, burning with quite hot fire, I plunged into the depths
2:34
of the abyss. Unspeakable pain, relentless
2:38
agony. Time cease to exist.
2:42
Only this torture and a deepening hatred of the
2:45
hypocrisy that damned me to this hell.
2:54
An eternity passed and my torment receded, bringing me
2:59
back from the precipice of madness.
3:02
The descent had destroyed me, and yet I lived Russia.
3:33
I know you, Raziel. You are worthy.
3:37
What madness is this? What pitiful form is this that I
3:41
have come to inhabit? Death would be a release next to
3:46
this travesty. You did not survive the abyss,
3:52
Raziel. I have only spared you from
3:55
total dissolution. I would choose oblivion over
4:00
this existence. The choice is not yours.
4:06
I am destroyed. You are reborn.
4:12
The birth of 1 of Cain's abominations traps the essence
4:16
of life. It is this soul that animates
4:20
the corpse you lived in. And that, Raziel, is the demise
4:26
of Nazgoth. There is no balance.
4:29
The souls of the dead remain trapped.
4:32
I cannot spin them in the wheel of fate.
4:34
They cannot complete their destinies.
4:40
Redeem yourself, or, if you prefer, avenge yourself.
4:47
Settle your dispute with Cain, destroy him and your brethren.
4:51
Free their souls and let the wheel of fate churn again.
4:57
Use your hatred to weave their souls.
5:01
I can make it possible. Become my soul reaver, my Angel
5:09
of death. These gates twist space, laying
5:33
a path across great spans. You are weak.
6:21
You must feed. The old hunger has left me.
6:25
I have no desire for blood. You are changed.
6:29
Your bloodthirst is replaced by a deeper need.
6:33
You've become a devourer of souls.
6:38
To sustain your strength, you must hunt the lost spirits of
6:42
the underworld and consume the souls of your enemies.
8:03
What scabrous wretches are these?
8:07
Sure, the scavengers of the Underworld, their feral hunter
8:12
has claimed countless souls, spirits who now shall never find
8:17
their rest. Music.
9:24
These portals are your conduit between the spectrum and
9:27
material realms. With their aid you may gather
9:31
matter and will yourself to become manifest in the physical
9:36
world. This is taxing, however, Your
9:39
strength must first be fully restored.
9:43
You require no conduit to return to this plane.
9:47
You may abandoned your physical body at any time.
10:01
Sustain your strength to prolong your manifestation in the
10:04
physical world. If you fail to feed or absorb
10:08
too many wounds, this fragile matter will dissolve.
10:14
You are young yet, Raziel, you still retain many of your
10:24
vampiric weaknesses. Immersion in water, while not
10:28
fatal, will dissolve your physical body, forcing your
10:32
return to the spirit world. Be aware that in the spectral
10:36
realm of water has neither heft nor lift, it stands as thin as
10:42
air. What are?
10:59
These creatures. Do you not recognize them?
11:03
They are the children of your brother Duma.
11:07
That's impossible. These foul, scuttling beasts
11:11
could not be king of our high blood.
11:13
Do you suppose the time stood still for you, Rafael?
11:18
Much has changed since you passed from the world of men.
11:27
I knew my opponent's weaknesses, having suffered them myself.
11:31
Physical wounds are fleeting empires.
11:34
Immortal flesh begins to close as soon as it is cleaved,
11:38
vampires need only fear those wounds that impale or inflamed
11:43
water scorches like acid, and fledglings are devastated by
11:47
sunlight's touch. I would have to modify my
11:50
tactics to suit my foes. Unfettered from the flesh, a
12:02
creature's soul fades swiftly into the spectral realm.
12:06
Droid in quickly, Rachael, or you will be compelled to follow.
12:57
Your physical prowess surpasses what you knew in life.
13:01
Even massive obstacles can be moved effortlessly.
13:52
My. God, the sanctuary of the clans,
14:01
reduced to ruin. Beyond these walls lay the
14:04
pillars of Nosgol, the seat of King's empire.
14:08
How humble it now appeared, collapsing into the dust of its
14:12
former magnificence. And yet I had only just emerged.
14:17
In the instant between my execution and resurrection,
14:21
centuries had apparently passed. This world is wrecked with
14:28
cataclysms, the earth strange to shrug off the pestilence of
14:32
Cain's parasitic empire. The fate of this world was
14:36
preordained in an instant by a solitary man unwilling to martyr
14:42
himself to restore Noscot's balance, Cain condemned the
14:46
world to the decay. You see, in that moment the
14:50
unravelling began. Now it is nearly played out.
14:55
Nosgoth teethers on the brink of collapse.
14:57
It's fragile balance cannot hold.
16:22
The doors of the sanctuary were removable, either barred from
16:25
the inside or rusted shut. I would need to find another
16:29
means of entry.
