Regarding the comments about the game being abandonware, I have the understanding it is not, the download links for this game from abandoware sites are illegal. The mere aging of a game is not going to make it abandonware, a game is of public domain once the license, patent, etc. expires or if the owner willingly gives it to the public. The publishing rights of this game are either of Activision or Square-Enix now.
Come on GoG, please release this game. With the new Legacy of Kain game 'Nosgoth' officialy confirmend to be in the works, I want to be able to replay all of the Legacy of Kain series before I play the new Nosgoth game.
The one game missing from my LoK collection, my absolute favourite story of all time, and I never got to experience the beginning of it ;_; I'd buy this in a heartbeat!
just finished playing through the other 3. I already have this game on PS but I would kill to have it on PC. Especially since it was so hard to find in the USA a long time ago. Impossible to find now! Thanks for the others but in my opinion you need this one
Only my all time favorite game! I just finished buying it on disc for the pc and I can't seem to get it running on windows 7. Yeah yeah I did everything I had to do, downloading all those patches but it still isnt working properly. If GoG released this I would buy it yet AGAIN! Love this game do it GoG!!
Damn, i want the whole Legacy of Kain collection on GOG, just one more, c'mon GOG, just one more. :D
gog please make it !!
I hope gog can get it working having to start from the second game in the series is not hard with legacy of kain becuase theres a big time jump but i would still like to play blood omen BEFORE soul reaver fighting the old protaganist has no weight if i never played as him
This game is near impossible to get running on Windows 7 these days. Come on GoG! You can do it!
Best of the series but tragically overlooked.
I really want this game.
If you can, bring it to gog, please! I'm really looking forward to finally playing it. Gonna buy all lok-titles if you do, promise ;-) .
I find myself checking this website virtually every single day in hope that the original Blood Omen will be available to purchase.
Hope it'll be announced soon. :)
From the time I've started using GoG.com a few years ago I've been hoping they would bring out Blood Omen 1 some time. Since they've released the other four games in the Legacy of Kain series my hopes were raised for them to bring out Blood Omen 1 soon as well. I would buy it immediately!
Instabuy! I ordered the original ps1 disk, and dusted off my ps2, just to play this gem.
We need this game on here!!!
:D one of best vampire game ever made :D i remeber when bought on ps1 long time ago *.* now gimme a pc working version :D
Still hoping this game will some day be on GOG...
PSN has Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain as a PSOne Classic. Can we get it on GOG as a PClassic? :D
There is already versions online that work with win7 online. Also psn has this game so the licensing is not that big of a issue.
The game is available on the PSN. Problem with property is not that huge, it seems.
I understand why GOG doesn't have this game yet, but we can all appreciate them trying at least. Even though I understand the reason, I don't understand the cause really. I mean, this game is almost twenty years old. Its not like anyone is profiting off of the game anymore. The only place you can really find it anymore is on the net or in second hand shops. There's no real downside to letting GOG have the rights to it.
Please try GOG. I really want this game so I can play through the series. In response to TubeAlloy's comments. Ty :-) And to add to that the game seems to be compatible with WINE and has Gold status when running the version 2.0 KainSetup.exe patch from comcast.net provided in TubeAlloy's post. I haven't tested it yet.
I owned every LoK game at one point or another. Bought the rest of the series for nostalgia and Nosgoth's sake last week. Get this in here! :D
Please GOG, Make it Happen... Many people around the World will become happy...
This is the only one I don't own and would love to own.
Come on guys, you got the rest of the series already; make this happen :)
Edit - copy the trainer into the same folder as the kain.exe. Link got pasted again by mistake
For those that wish to get this title it is officially classed as abandonware to the best of my knowledge. It is possible to download a copy of the game from several sites legally (around 80mb zipped). I have not linked any sites here in case there are some legal issues around this so from here on lets assume you have an original Blood Omen CD (You lucky devil!)and you need to get it running on XP/Vista/Windows 7 | 8 In order to run the game on a modern PC you will need http://home.comcast.net/~masterpisgreat/KainSetup.exe - patch to fix several issues including a freeze for CPU > 1.5Ghzhttp://nosgothica.org/games/paul_met/Bink_patch_BO_(PC).exe - fix for video files to use bink technology Additionally the game will probably run very slowly. You need the trainer available from http://nosgothica.org/games/bo1_trainer_eng.zip. Copy the trainer into the same folder as http://nosgothica.org/games/bo1_trainer_eng.zip., right click on the trainer and run as administrator. Then launch the game from the trainer. Once in Blood Omen pressing "9" will fix the speed issue. Additionally there are some nice tweaks like saving the game at any time by pressing F10 but if you're a purist like me you just need the speed boost. NOTE for the BO1 patcher you need to give it the directory Blood Omen is installed in, sometimes you will need to delete a "/KAIN" that the patcher adds to the path. ADDITIONAL NOTE - For some, if not all, of these files you need to right-click and "run as administrator" in vista + in order to give them the permissions they need to run. DISCLAIMER - I scanned all of these files with Avira as of 11/02/2013 and they came back clean. Additionally I feel these are community files provided by guys that love these games as much as we do and for that I'd like to thank them all. That being said you do install these files at your own risk.
I see the others and I won't buy any unless the original is here too, I already own them all anyway. I didn't know there was a PC version, it always seemed made for PC though.
That's very interesting and disappointing, hurabi. Thanks for the information.
The reason this isn't on GoG yet and may never be is that it'll take a hell of a lot of cutting of red tape to get it on here. The rights to this game were not soley belonging to Eidios like the other games. I do hope it gets on GoG but I don't have high hopes.
It boggles the mind that this game's still not on gog.com! There rest of the series are, so where the foundation? C'mon, you gog, you can do it! You know you want this, and you know we want this, we know you want this, and we know we want this! All that's left is putting it for sale!
Does anyone know why this game is so hard to find? The other four games in the series are on GoG, but I can't find the first one anywhere.
WANT! wantwantwant!! gimme naoooo!
I really, really want this.
Yeah, add this game please! Wanted to play it for long time.
Still waiting for this one...
I only need this one to complete the collection. I'm also missing Blood Omen 2, but let's just make as if that one doesn't exist.
I would absolutely buy this game were it to come to GOG. Please make this happen!
Please work your magic, try your best, We need this! -- Its such a pain to get working on modern systems... please help us!
I'm soooo ready to replay the whole Kain-Raziel story, just waiting for the game that started it all D:
This game is incredible, it is a milestone game! GOG.com must add it!
I would most definitely be interested in seeing this game on the GOG catalog.
I bought all the games of this series except Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain
Would you please add Blood Omen to the catalogue? To have the other four but not the one that started it all it's a gaming crime, and I'm sure it's illegal somewhere. And on the dawn of Silicon Knights, please make it happen.
Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain na0!!11oneone I would buy it hard, and gawds know Dyack needs the money.
having BO back would be great - they could have to incorporate the fan made patches which made BO possible to run on win7, like they did with SR1. It´s not as simple as with BO1 on psn.
