^ those kind of comments always make me lol, what the fuck did you expect, complex psychological character development and 20h long tutorial on how to shoot guns then another 2h every time lara kills someone? get a grip, its A GAME.
Get a fucking grip. Do you think your definition of games is universal? People play games for a vast variety of reasons. The way you speak of games, they could simply just be arcade games.
sabin already make poost which responds to that bullshit.
anyway - definition, really? whatt exatly are you talking about? if you wanna play a game when characters deals emotionally with every kill he/her make then, well, GOOD LUCK with finding that one.
TR flaws are pretty stupid story, predictable characters but gameplay wise its the best TR game in many years and a perfect example of how to propely reboot a failing franchise.
square enix have picked a nice momentum with good deus ex, very good TR, (didnt play hitman yet), hope they can make something with long forgotten legacy of kain games.
So "the perfect example of how to propely reboot a failing franchise" is to change everything about it?
Regardless of quality, that's never the best example, is it?
So, let's say, if SC:C turned out to be truly one of the best TPS games of all time, would that make it a) "the perfect example of how to propely reboot a failing franchise" or b) would it still be a huge disappointment because it plays nothing like the original?
I say b).

Lara was always Rambo, or didn't you play any of the other games? You know... like the one where she fights a fucking T-Rex?
Where she was depicted as a seasoned.. Tomb Raider from the very first cutscene, so no problems there.
In this one she supposedly becomes Rambo in 30 minutes and actually taunts the enemies that she's coming to kill all of them multiple times in the game.
Tomb Raider : I Spit On Your Grave
the thing was if this would be Lara when she was 21-25 years old when she was a Raider a Adventurous Gal it would be ok , but she is now like 16 -18 here , her first thing and in the first few seconds she becomes a amazon Conan warrior princes
Shit at least Far Cry 3 made it believable with the character in the way he actually became a bad ass. Here in Derp Raider, she goes from Steve Urkel to mothafucking RAMBO in like what 30minutes.
At least give us a 1hour session were they show her doing flashbacks on how she learned all this Green Beret survival shit and her Amazing marksmanship that makes an experienced sniper blush.

+1
Farcry 3 did a phenomenal job showing how a city boy becomes a warrior but that quick heal regeneration was ridiculous
I only hope that they:
- don't bastardize the formula by narrowing the levels and adding useless QTEs in order to make everything look more cinematic;
- don't turn Raziel into some kind of emokid a-la DmC;
- implement decent puzzles, unlike the ones that we've seen in TRawesome;
- don't taint the gameplay with silly instinct modes and *XP-all-the-things!*
and many others
They should take inspiration from, let's say Darksiders 2, but I fear that they'll follow the authentic blockbuster route.
Act nao and receive pre order day 1 OMFG AMAZING DORITOS MOUNTAIN DEW DLC.
Included in this AWESOME DLC is:
*An amazing vampire twilight skin for razuel, feel how bulla felt when durrward carried hers

the thing was Darksiders was LEGACY OF KAIN look-a-like ... every time i played it i got this 'í seen this before' oh it was in Soul Reaver
My crystal ball says this one will be good because it's Crystal Dynamics and they never fail. No, they didn't fail with Tomb Raider, it's not because nfohump people are complaining that the game sucks.

@consolitis : my bad, I had never heard of this game. Still, one game out of all the ones they did is pretty good. You can say the same with Blizzard and Diablo 3
Still, any game from Crystal Dynamics is something to be looking forward to, don't you think ? Just like I'm not really looking forward to another Timegate game (Alien dev), because these really suck (and the majority, including the press, admits they suck).
@garus : you don't like Tomb Raider, fine. It's not because you don't like it that the whole industry sucks. This game was a real breeze of fresh air, you can tell me anything you want, the game was majorly liked by everyone and was praised by the press.
It means that you are part of the elite minority that don't like this game. Too bad for you I guess, good for the others.
Now you tell me you hated that Alien game, fair enough, most people hated it, you are part of the majority, good for you for once !
Oh well, the PC section will always disgust me, you are looking forward to another possible great game, but it gets destroyed and hated before it's EVEN announced. Really mature. So be it I guess. I guess it was better to praise Sim City before it was out, saying how great it would be since it would be a PC exclusive, etc, right ? Consoles port prolly killed Sim City huh ? QTE too ?

"War of Nosgorth" found in AMD drivers + Steam registry.
Speculation is it's some F2P / MOBA shit.

Not HD remake. REBOOT. New art style. New game overall.
In making by Crystal Dynamics!
So, basically same crap as original Soul Reaver was. I really, really don't understand what made some people love SR. And the fact that they "parasited" (and butchered it) on the universe and setting of the original game from SK just makes it more pathetic. No wonder, original game was AMAZING. Reminded me about lots and lots of fun I had with Alundra but with more defined story and setting and colorful characters.
I want continuation or re-make or re-imagined version of BO from old SK team, the one that existed in 199x :<
(but it will never happen)

How about,you know, they for ONCE take inspiration from original game? Doesn't it seems like... right thing to do?
Reboot will be another mediocre shit. They had no idea what made original game tick and be so much loved (and produce such great community) and they still don't. Just take a look at list of "great" games CD produced so far. Expectations? C'mon guys.

Don't get me wrong, taking inspiration from the original game was obviously the most logical (and best) thing to do without any doubt, but since they have planned (or maybe not..who knows) to reboot and 'modernize' the whole thing I thought that something close to Darksiders' formula could be a good choice after all.
Completely agree... as long as they take away LoK title :3
(because let us be honest - none of previous games not upcoming has anything to do with look at all >_>)
So, not a Soul Reaver/Legacy of Kain reboot/sequel. Something else, just using the same universe. As irritating as it is, I think the first comment under this article might be right (Moba). What do you think, guys?
TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."

“Crystal Dynamics are not working on a Legacy of Kain game”.
So this thread is likely pointless because I don't believe they would outsource a LoK reboot to someone else. Conclusion: no LoK games in development.

Legacy of Kain: 10 cancelled titles exposed by NeoGAF investigation
Quote:
The investigation comes from NeoGAF user Mama Robotnik, the same person who exposed many cancelled Silicon Knights projects last year.
On the most recent rumoured project Legacy of Kain: Dead Sun, Mama Robotnik claims that developer Climax was working on the game for over three years as a PS4 launch title and that the newly-announced game Nosgoth – formally referred to in rumours as ‘War for Nosgoth’ – was actually the game’s multiplayer component.
Quote:
The report also claims that sales projections for Dead Sun did not meet Square-Enix targets and they quietly cancelled the project. It was said to be set many years after the Soul Reaver series, and starred a vampire called Gein who feeds on a human called Asher. The pair become linked through some strange soul symbiosis and embark on a quest across an open world depiction of Nosgoth. As a result of the anomaly, Gein/Asher can morph between spectral and material realms at will.
Quote:
Mama Robotnik claims there have been ten cancelled Legacy of Kain projects so far, and that they were in development across a wide range of studios and publishers including, Crystal Dynamics, Silicon Knights, Climax, AndNow, Activision, Square-Enix, Eidos, Ritual Entertainment, Glyphx, Nixxes and Psyonix.
The cancelled games are believed to be:
* Pillars of Nosgoth
* Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain Enhanced
* Sirens
* Kain 2 (Crystal Dynamics)
* Kain 2 (Silicon Knights)
* Shifter
* Soul Reaver 2 (not the version that did get released, obviously)
* Chakan 2: The Forever Man
* Legacy of Kain: The Dark Prophecy
* Legacy of Kain: Dead Sun
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
