Legacy of kain blood omen walkthrough pc12/12/2023 ![]() ![]() In this very moment, in the town of Coorhagen, of noble crib Kain is born to human life. The once white and pristine Pillars would crack and turn to a dirty black as the whole land enters a downward spiral of decay. His madness would infect the other members of the Circle, turning them into tyrants, dedicated to desecrate the land they were sworn to protect. ![]() He would retire to his mountain retreat and sew his eyes and mouth to shut the world outside. Nupraptor, Guardian of the Pillar of Mind and lover of Ariel, would find her corpse and descend into madness. He wouldn't do much of a good job, since some centuries later Ariel, Guardian of the Pillar of Balance, would be murdered by an unseen assassin. Malek, Guardian of the Pillar of Conflict and palladin of the Circle, failed to save them, and thus was damned to live as a ghost inside a hollow armour, bound to protect the Circle for eternity. In revenge for these "vampire purges", an ancient vampire called Vorador would slaughter six members of the Circle. It all starts in a time when vampires were being hunted down and exterminated by an order of warrior-priests created by the Circle, called The Sarafan. These Guardians are called the Circle of Nine, Protectors Of Hope. Each Pillar represents a power of the land, and it's protected by a Guardian. THE STORY of Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain takes place in Nosgoth, a land where all life depends on the existence of an ancient edifice known as The Nine Pillars. Anne Rice and Dracula fans, this one's for you. Playing as an anti-hero character is a refreshing change. If you can appreciate the twists and turns of the storyline you will definitely want to play through the game. It is far removed from the generally cutesy atmosphere of the Zelda games. This is definitely an action-adventure and not an RPG. Also, you can only save at designated save game points which I found to be annoying since it sometimes meant trudging through already-covered territory upon reloading. I would have liked the inclusion of more interaction and conversation with the NPCs. Traversing back and forth through the world of Nosgoth can also get tedious (although this is helped somewhat by the teleportation system introduced early in the game). The graphics are also very pixelated and blocky by today's glorious hi-res, true-color standards. Personally, I found the storyline to be the most important factor in keeping me playing till the end. If you're a fan of vampires then this game will surely appeal to you.ĭespite the acquisition of new weapons and offensive spells the combat quickly gets repetitive, and since combat is the central focus of the game this could put off a lot of people. As in the Zelda games your magical and shapechanging abilities and weaponry are steadily expanded as you progress. The voice overs for your character (Kain) also add to the atmosphere. The storyline is intricate and detailed and the ambience of Nosgoth (the gameworld) is suitably dark (I especially liked the way the colored lighting enhanced the moodiness). For anyone who's played the Zelda games, this one will be a treat especially since action/adventures of this sort are rare on the PC. ![]()
