My vocabulary was graciously enhanced Beyond recognition of its Original speech.

I would not want it remade. The original was somewhat clunky as a game even when it released and was nowhere near of what Diablo had done as far as gameplay goes. But We all know what made it special. The story. Any kind of remake/reboot would have to change it somehow and i can`t really think of any modern game studio that could do this game justice. Even in recent SR remaster trailer Raziel introduction looks like they are presenting a Fortnite character. If someone will ever remake BO they`ll probably just add some "modern" shit, make the cast more diverse and gay and cut things that they would find problematic for modern audiences so they could sell it to as many people as possible. Big games nowdays are a buisness, not passion projects. The original LOK died over 20 years ago. Let`s just remember it for what it was. A good story that does not need modern day adaptation. Like a good book You once read.

He also gains an immunity to water while sunlight will still kill him. I learned about it from @StrictlyFantasy.

I'd prefer a remake, simply because i never liked games with a top-down visual. I played BO1 and i loved it, but the top-down visual felt like a cumbersome limitation.

Remake VS remaster... Hmm... Couldn't say this is a tough question. I think, a remake is the right way to go - for all those reasons you've mentioned. Totally agree with that. As for the nostalgia, I've got an idea. In some remakes of pretty old games (PS1 era and old arcade games) there is an in-game option to play the full original game. A game within a game, so to speak. In this case we could explore Nosgoth in it's dark, reborn glory AND compare the remake directly to the original, if we want to. And there is another idea - a WISH - just in case the almighty creator gods are listening... Every game (okay, most games) needs a good tutorial and I would LOVE it if we could play as Vorador in this tutorial instead of just watching the cutscene at the beginning of the game. Could you imagine? Sneaking into the fortress and slaughtering the first guardians as this vampiric force of nature? It would be so cool. And we would get a great comparision between him and the newborn fledgling we are going to play as for the rest of the game. Maybe they could also include Vorador's second fight against Malek and after that we switch back to Kain... Ah, just wishful thinking!

I want to play the first one. The one that actually introduced us to that universe

Need a remake. Need a remake. Need a remake!!!

Yes yes yes

IMO the artistic area of the games (story, music, voice acting, art style) should remain intact, while the technical area (graphics, controls, camera, combat system) should be improved and modernized.

A remaster does not preclude a remake. It serves a very different purpose of ensuring the original work still functions and can be appreciated. A remake on the other hand is intended to add new ways to experience the original story. Both should be able to coexist, and a remaster might be more practical for the moment given that it’s a fraction of the cost and Embracer still isn’t doing so well. The remasters seem to be though, and adding Blood Omen would allow fans to have a complete collection.

Worried about the remasters? Not in the slightest! Yes, it would be nice if they would enhance/overhaul the movement animations for certain characters, especially Raziel's gliding animation and Dumah's run cycle, but even if they don't do that, these games will be brilliant. There is no other game on the market, which could hold a candle to the storytelling of the LoK series, and the people will appreciate this. At least in the case of both Soul Reaver games and Defiance, there is no need to be worried. The Blood Omen games are another topic. They need more than just a remaster and I'm not sure, if Aspyr could handle that. BUT on the other hand, I think, they are on a very good way, and with the help of the community maybe we will see a lore-friendly remake of Blood Omen 1 & 2 one day. As long as they don't do anything really stupid - like reviving Dead Sun - we really don't have to be afraid of the future of LoK.

well i'm not too worried about the games my main gripe witch was rahab's design has already been fixed. Performance wise I think the main thing they could probably fix is update the camera controls for SR1 I heard a few players had issues with it. I would like the pillars to look a little more like the fan-remastered pillars updated texture for the throne to make it look more like the fmv throne and giving the runes at the base that gold trim really makes them pop and it looks a lot better but it's no deal breaker if they don't do that but it would be really nice. one other thing the fan remaster did was the added cut texture back into the game I hope this remaster dose that as well. But what I am worried about is the lack of ads for this game. they need to make people more aware of the game, we need more trailers better trailers than what we have now.

I wouldn't get my hopes up on updated mechanics pertaining to the actual gameplay, Soul Reaver 1 and 2 were solid. It fell under those platformers like the original tomb raider games, where you hold R1 to autoface/walk so you don't fall off platforms and the movement and level systems are tuned for each other. There's not a whole lot that needs to be changed. Maybe a better 'look' feature instead of R2/RT + L2/LT, simply using the right analog, that's kind of the only thing I can see happening, but even then I'm not sure that would even be a good change since you can't use the face buttons at the same time, etc etc, the game worked fine the first time around lol.

Your videos are awesome

Let's not forget that the same as happened with TR remaster, it probably will have a lot of patchs to enhance the visuals.

I am too against a remake, but I would accept a remaster like it was made with Metroid Prime Remaster or even the Tomb Raider remasters.

You evil butt munch you cut the video

I'm not sure why people arent complaining about some other stuff. Like the soul reaver itself seems to be a slightly better version of soul reaver 2. But the only reason soul reaver1 and 2s reaver looked that way were due to limitations, they should have made it like the one in defiance where it actually looked like a spirit sword again like in the original soul reaver 1 cutscene when it exploded

I didn't know it, but I needed to hear this. Thank you.

Great edit, bro

Those “fixed” look horrible! STOP WHINING AND CRYING!! The remaster looks perfect the way Aspyr is remastering it!

So the SECRET is that there is no SECRET, and I fell for your clickbait. Don't tell anyone.

I would prefer it darker

Eu nao to curtindo nao, português correto ta bem mais ou menos, nao vale o valor cobrado

Can't wait for the remaster

I like the graphics, but i don't like how they changed the wraith blade from the cool swirly effect to a bunch of sparkling dots.

I only played soulreaver 1 , really enjoyed it. The Story and Atmosphere were great.

To be honest I never noticed the big ear till now

Well, it was a boss showcase and SR2 basically has no bosses except some with major spoilers. Plus SR1 is the most iconic and received a larger amount of facelift, so they wanted to capitalize on that. No worries though, I think both games will look great.

👍😎

I think reasons are: - SR1 being way more cult-classic than SR2 - there are no bosses in SR2, so no separate video for them. I do think, that it is possible to have "Enemy showcase trailer" in the future.

Pretty sure they are showing SR1 because it is going to be the most dramatic change. The visuals should be identical across the 2 games now.

i dont thenk that they ded aloth weth soul rever 2 noth to the extent the ps1 got

When i was a Kid i saw the game at almost every yard sale and i didnt get it. Stupid Kid me.

I want a physical copy

why dont you do it the oldschool way and just wait for release and find everything out firsthand with personal gameplay.

Agreed brotha.

SR2 probably didn’t improve that much

😢 a masterful piece of art in the history of video games

Your talking as if we haven't seen it at all, and, soul reaver 2 doesn't have bosses in a traditional sense, everything that could be considered a boss is literally a stronger version of a generic enemy, even the final boss is just a suped up sarafan swordsman

I'm waiting for the "got ya" moment where you tell us it's actually garbage

We need a blood omen remake

They said fuck the uglie stick and used the entire tree on that statue instead.

I just hope that they raise the difficulty of the bosses in SR2 a little bit, like Raziel and the Sarafan bretheren and other supposed bosses in the game that feel just like normal enemies in the game, I think it not that difficult, the devs could just increase their (invisible) health bar and give them better skills a make it a little bit like fighting games where you have to read and counter your opponent, or even like the Soulsbourne games.

A couple of years ago, the developers had a questionnaire regarding the future of LOK. It was a long questionnaire asking what was wanted vs what was definitely not wanted, and would a remaster be something we wanted plus for more entries- continuation of the story or new characters. The success of the remasters will signal to developers how hungry the market is for more games and if they should invest time and money.

I really hope they add to the detail to the plants and scenery like tomb raider remastered did and amazing job of environments, so far i have not seen much of anything i hope its not a let down in that department

they already showed us Kain and Moebius, both of which still need improvement. if they are shooting for the cgi look, if you look at the boss trailer, Kains eye's shoot out their sockets more, and the crown could be better. (there's a user that goes by the hylden who recreated cgi Kain and it looks flawless.) I told aspyr to copy that. moebius in the original has bigger eyes/mouth that it looks mo-capped. the new one looks stiff. in my honest opinion, SR2 has the best artwork out of the 5 lok games. if they just improve upon the original by adding more detail that's all you need, vs making a whole new model. kain and raziel can be one to one for the cgi, but everyone else can just be better models with more detail of SR2. I think next month they'll show more of SR2 cuz they're not ready at the moment.

Now that you mentioned the status looks more feminine in the original game, in the remasters looks more ambiguous, this was probably made because sweet babies and wokies.
