things fans want in LOK 6

[nichie14]

Yep!! I strongly Agreed!!! A free-roaming Nosgoth with citizens, animals and creatures would be so Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Actually many or should i said thousands upon thousands of people would love that too. Have let's a vote on If they want a free-roaming Nosgoth like Fable or Zelda:Ocarina of TIme. Also thanks ScionofBalance and GawDawg for agreeing with us that Raziel should come back. And we all agree he's an important character that will have a major impact in future LOK games. Finally the debate is settle. Raziel will return

Please do not throw around the names of actual religious deities for the sole purpose of doing so. Such posting can be construed as offensive by various religious sects and it's best to avoid that in the community.

EDIT: Additionally, tread cautiously when introducing real-world religion into discussion as well.

Thanks.

i agree with you RAZIEL_IS_DEAD now its up to kain to fullfil his destiny and restore the pillers to nosgoth!!its hard to believe that raziel is death ceause raziel was the only reason that i play legacy of kain series!!,we have to look forward and sea what happend in the next games of the series.!!

My wishes are that as Kain is purified, now at the end of LOKD, In the next series he evolves and gets transformed just like Raziel did (he should be having wings), just like Janos.

He could now fly to places he wants. explore more of nosgoth through flying.

[nichie14]

Hey Guys and Gals, Raziel is not dead have you guys heard? The official word from the lead animator of Crystal Dynamics that Raziel is still alive. So cheer up and be happy since we are going t o see Raziel again. Yes!!!!
Be happy

Where did you read that? I'd like to see it in an official article of some sort before I start pondering it.

[nichie14]

Omega Fury has the scoop on it. And i think a senior member in here told me it's coming out July 7. So have you guys pre-order them yet. I can't wait. I hope it's longer than Defiance and have plots. I can't wait till July 7.

Please be advised that there is no truth to these rumors. An individual claimed that a lead animator was leaking information about a new title at a California school. Chris@Crystal responded with the following:

I just checked with the Defiance team and they ae not aware of anyone speaking at Palo Alto high school. Can you tell me who it was that spoke or what they looked like? Otherwise I am going to delete this thread.
Thanks.

With regard to the July 7th information, that is also untrue. The member-in-question was referring to last year's April Fool's Joke initiated by Blincoln, willow and Divine Shadow.

[nichie14]

Hi Miss Umah,
how would you know that that's not true? Omega Fury is the one that brought it up so he's the only one that know whether is true or not. i won't spread the rumor unfortunately even though i have 50 bucks ready to pre-order, but i still think in my opinion that Omega Fury is telling the truth. Why would he lie about that in the forum.

YEAH!!!! Raziel is back on July 7th.

"Borderline?"

Just an update on the rumor mill. Chris did some more investigating and posted this in another thread:

"Yeah, it was me. I spoke at Palo Alto High - it was a career day. I didn't mention anything about story or characters, and the stuff I showed them was from sr 1 and 2 - he must have thought it was from the next lok6."

Things I would love to see in LOK6:

1. A return of Kain's Lupine form. I would love to be able to run about as a wolf and pounce on hapless victims, tearing their throats out as they scream and make futile struggles;

2. Far more spells for Kain like BO1;

3. More gore. I wanna see Kain hack limbs off with the Reaver!

4. A more open format, with the option to randomly kill and pillage when the main storyline is finished;

5. The ability to assume bat form whenever you wish, and even attack people as a swarm of bats. Same for mist;

6. The non-return of Raziel. Don't do it, CD!

7. A realistic physics engine and rag-doll effects on corpses.

[Slifer001]

I would like to see Raziel being released from the Reaver in the final game.

[Slifer001]

Hey! don't blow an artery, it's only an opinion.

[BigKevSexyMan]

I would like to see Raziel NOT being released from the Reaver in the final game.

What I would not like to see in the next LOK...

Any indication that Raz is still aware, even though he's in the sword. What would he say? "Stop using me to bash through effing walls you son of a pig! You have effing claws, use those!"

BO2's combat system:

I'm not good at fighting. I got through BO2, screaming insults at Kain constantly, simply because I couldn't figure out how to dodge. SR2's combat system allowed me to run around like a maniac, randomly slashing and occasionally hitting the enemy, while not providing much of a target.

Hand-to-hand combat with bosses. I finally only beat Sebastion because I used the reaver cheat. Maybe there should be a two-fold system where you can beat a boss by hitting him until he falls down, or use the environment against them.

The lore bar thing=kill and drink everyone you can lay claw on, even people who aren't annoying you. I realise as the player I could've just run away, but that would be lore lost.

What I'd like to see in the next LOK...

A bit more explanation about what was going on in Kain's mind when he was trying to change Raz's fate.

A cheat code that lets me "fly" the camera to anyplace in the room that the character is currently occupying. I really liked admiring the scenery in the other games.

It's hard to write puzzles for Kain. They have a very "god of the machine" like feel. (Oh, gee. An environment where only a character with Kain's abilities can get through.) Perhaps the "keys" can be event triggers, bits of information that allow the character to procede.

BO1's bat form for times when you need to backtrack. (just figured out how that one worked)

If we really want the fan service, maybe show that Kain has some dead Razilium tucked away somewhere and he manages to revive them. I don't think it's important.

What I really want is for CD to design a new game with a new story (away from Nosgoth) that I can glom onto so I can get over my Raziel obsession. Take the SR game formula and lay it onto a new plot.

[Alastor]

Okay that's it!! I cant take this anymore!! We... the TRUE fans of Raziel are having a hard time coping with the loss of our beloved little boy blue as it is, but now we're also forced to hear things like this. WHAT IS UP!! We have accepted the fact that the chances of him being a playable character in the next LOK is slim to none. We are trying to deal with the fact that we may never see him again... EVER. WE are praying that his enormous sacrifice will not eventually be forgotten by all, and his legacy lost forever. Considering this, and all the hell he's been put through, comments like...

Hey, I like Raziel as much as everyone else. But think about it. WHY BRING RAZIEL BACK, besides to ruin his story...

[KainOFthehylden]

ohhh god im sick of this
every thread is turned to raziel-come-back-or-not thread
let's face it
raziel will never come back
we all like him and appreciate his sacrifice but the best for evrybody and for him not to come back

[Laxely]

Despite the lynching i'll get from Redeemer/Destroyer I agree with you I mean he's had one hell of an innings seeing as SR wasn't originally going to have a sequal.

He'll be in the next game mind you in the prologue and flashbacks but that's all anyone can hope for.

It's a fact the body is gone but the appetite remains to reave ever onward.

[WraithStar]

Either Raziel will return or he will not. It's up to the new writers of the series and they probably already have the story worked out, so us arguing isn't going to change anything. I don't know whether or not I want Raziel to come back, but whichever path the story takes, I really hope it's not contrived like the end of Project Eden. I would like to see Raziel again if the story supports it, but it doesn't look like the story is going that way, so Raziel probably won't come back in all his wraithen glory. I'm willing to accept Raziel's death because he was willing to accept it. Look at it this way -- after Raziel's cycle through being in the sword and being the Wraith Reaver, he will rejoin Kain's soul so there is an end to his entrapment. After he lives out his circular destiny, he will rejoin Kain and he won't be alone and miserable.

[li_Miloe]

There is something I have been violently wanting since SR1...to play with vampire Raziel. Maybe they can add two or three playable levels (bonus maybe) that help strenghten Raziel's story...kinda like memories of the past on Kain's mind.

Starting from the moment Kain resurrects the Sarafan Priests as vamps, and ending on the journey Raziel makes from his awakening with his new wings, until entering Kain's throne room.

I know there are a thousand years in between....so I say three levels could be ok.

I guest til then, I would have to satisfy my liutenant Raziel urges by playing with the action figure i got on ebay...
