    It's been awhile, but here's another Soul Reaver 2 recreated scene -- albeit a much shorter one this time.
    Still wishing I had access to better models to make these animations more worthwhile and exciting, but I'm making do with what I have.

      Thank you thank you!! This just feels really great to see this, maybe cuz LoK fans are so content starved, but this is appreciated nonetheless. Oh, and some questions.
      - What other projects do you have in mind?
      - Do you do these as a hobby or are you studying to get an animation job?
      - Oh, and I find that this game feels, feminine, in some goth type way, maybe it's the theatrics, thoughts?

    I like the way that Raziel moves his hands more when he talks. It makes it more dynamic for the dialog scenes since he doesn't have a mouth, so his big old Spider-Man eyes and body language has to do the bulk of the acting (beyond Michael Bells dulcet tones.) Great stuff

    • @danielvereb4579
      @danielvereb4579 Рік тому +7

      Yeah, when a character has no mouth, you really need to add more character to his other features, like his eyes too. One problem I had with the immersion of say Starcraft 2 Legacy of the Void, was that all the protoss, well they have no face only eyes and there is barely any expression. The arms move but it just isn't enough. In Brood War times, their portraits, though limited, would bob their heads and flash their eyes, which was really cool and gave them character.

      A cool workaround for the lacking technology of the day. His gestures and body language are similar to Silent Hills use of fog to hide the draw distance. In a way, the graphical and technical power we have today may very well limit the artistic creativity of modern designers. They don't have to develop ingenious solutions to technical problems as much anymore.

    This came at a perfect time, considering the survey that Crystal Dynamics released earlier this month regarding a potential new LoK game after the IP acquisition.
    I love the animation here, it adds so much more characterisation. Even with no pupils and mouth to work with, the wide gestures, subtle positioning of the eyelids and camera angles really elevate this scene above the original. It's very impressive!

    Why was I never notified of this masterful followup? The regard this shows for the source animation while also emphasizing body language just enough to express what the original relied on voice work to convey, all without going overboard is impeccable. Raziel's personality and emotions radiate through the movements you've added. I am in awe. Superb job on this.

    Once again I am reminded how awesome the voice acting in this game really was - it's a shame that the VA for the Elder God has unfortunately passed away.

  • @NomaranTheAlchemist
    @NomaranTheAlchemist Рік тому +6

    Dammnnnnn man this was probably one of the most intense scenes imo during Soul Reaver 2 because you are basically learning the truth of the history of the world for yourself and in both Blood Omen and Soul Reaver you were only given one half of the story and the other is yours to discover. But won't lie it was weird for me at first to think that the Elder God was actually on my side but then in SR2 you learn that is not the way of it....still what a clean animation. Worth the wait.

      Crystal Dynamics is thinking about it and they opened a poll, asking people various questions as if there ever is a new LoK game, what should it look like. And although I am in doubts about the sequel, to see the previous games remade, with the voice lines preserved (and maybe expanded for the actors that still live) would bring me the greatest of joys.

    This made me realize one thing, a hint as to Raziel's true potential.
    The Elder God chastises him for failing. Despite the fact by his own admittance, he is omnipresent, omniscient, you can have conversations in the future, and continue them in the past.
    Yet here the elder who is all knowing about other's fates, actions, what they will and wont do, chastises you, for failing. And there is the hint.
