Legacy of Kain Dead Sun - There was a time when Square Enix remembered it owned The Legacy of Kain series, and tried to do something new with it. Two phantoms spawned from it, one was Nosgoth, that you got to play before it was shut down. The other one was Dead Sun, a dead game that no one played.

Well dead sun was never released...so i guess thats why noe one plays it....
Very heart breaking.

Dead Sun had great potential, but all was wasted for Nosgoth multiplayer arena. (Which ironically, was canceled too.)

Don't be silly. Nothing was wasted for Nosgoth which was set to come out alongside Dead Sun anyway. Also, with what we know of it from the gameplay vids, Dead Sun was set to completely rape the story and lore right in the eyesocket.

Are you mad? It was obviously a new story, explicitly described by the dev team as occurring centuries later and without any connection whatsoever to the old series.

It was literally meant as a modern rendition of an old game that could never have its story nor dev-team-effort matched within a century. As such, it would be both appealing to old fans and fantastic to all players.

"Don't be silly" LMAO, could *you* be any sillier?

Edit: Let's not forget that LoK:Soul Reaver was the most ambitious (and most deserving of that title, representative of the whole series) game of all time: https://www.neogaf.com/threads/soul-reaver-may-have-been-the-most-overly-ambitious-game-ever-research-thread.488564/

No, unfortunately I am quite sane, which seems more and more like a disadvantage in this day and age.

So is it occuring centuries later or does it have no connection to the old series whatsoever? It's an either/or situation; the former leaves a lot of space to rape the story in every orifice, which it would, by the way, look it up. The backstory of this abomination is that Kain went back in time and offed his younger self and that somehow fixed the future. Kinda. Which is, you know, pretty damn impossible given the previously established rules of time travel and changing the past.
And then it would turn out that he DIDN'T kill himself, but somehow fooled reality into thinking he did. Which is triple impossible with a side of nonsense.

Yeah, I remember the gameplay leaks which clearly demonstrated that the writing in Dead Sun is anything but appealing to me and many other OG fans.

Given that I'm yet to be silly in this thread, yes, I very much could. But, given that you ask this question in response to a five year old post, I have to ask: do you have any self-awareness?

Yeah. Soul Reaver is a fantastic game all around. No arguing there.
