User blog comment:LoK-Aevum/News: Another unconfirmed, unconfirmable rumour for you/@comment-190.190.128.112-20120507181102

We should take into consideration what happened when soul reaver 1 came out. Many fans of the original blood omen were not satisfied with the direction that the game took. The fact that Kain lost protagonism in favor of a brand new character like Raziel, and the direction of the story, a thousand years fron the original game, didnt get on well with the already big fan base that blood omen had, loosing it completely and replacing it with a new one.

Suffice to say that those concepts were salvaged from scrap (aka:Shifter) and patched together with the blood omen story I can imagine that this could be the case for this rumours of reboot. Taking in consideration that this has already happen before. There is a precedent.

Its strange how those old blood omen fans hated these secuels, but the new ones are heager to play and revive the original blood omen game. A game they got to know, (and I think I speak for myself and for many others) mainly because we played soul reaver and we wanted to know kain origins and the creation of the Pillars and its corruption. And How Raziel destiny fitted in all that mess.

I guess only time will tell what next instalment of the Legacy of Kain series we can expect. We have already waited for a decade by now, so wainting a little longer will do no harm.
