Legacy of Kain™ Soul Reaver 1&2 Remastered

Played about 90 minutes. The story seemed interesting, but the gameplay is boring and clunky, the player movement is just bad, and the camera movement is headache-inducing. That isn’t interesting enough to suffer through the gameplay just to see the story. Not worth it.

Exactly how i remember it as a kid. Plays very well on a modern system, didn't have any issues with crashes or configuring the controls. Only pet peeve i have is the jumping in game, boy is it awful lol.

This game is so fun. I came across it randomly and liked the art style, but man, did I not expect the story, gameplay, level design, and OST to be so good!

As somebody who never played the original and only now tried this version, the gameplay is simply too dated and uninteresting to keep me engaged after getting used to the various other modern action games. The narrative and story seemed interesting, but the combat really drags it down for me, unfortunately.

My profile picture is Kain, so I mean peak story, peak series, great characters. Legendary stuff and great remaster. Story carries, gameplay is a bit dated but it's so one of a kind I'll excuse that.
