arcangel3d's Full Review: Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 2 for PlayStation 2
This game is not that bad over all. Unfortunately there are more movies than playing time. The game gets kind of confusing after a while because you go back and forth through time. I also found out the hard way that there are glitches in the game. For instance if you scared the crows infront of a door when you whant to get out the door after you've entered it won't let you. You evidently have to start over at your last save spot. In Soul Reaver 2 you only get to play as Raziel, a priest of the bad guy and who was brutially murdered by him. Raziel comes back to "life" as a soul reaver, however he does not know all there is to know about being a soul reaver. So as you progress through the game you learn how to do new things (as he learns also). When someone is killed there is a lot of blood. In practically every other game you play your character levels up one way or another. That's not the case for this game. Also, to add to the confusion, there are different realms you can be in. If you are in the spectural realm them you really can't do anything but run around. You can only change back to our realm when you are standing on a certain place.
In Blood Omen you get to play as both the bad guy and Raziel. Of course not at the same time. You have to switch back and forth between their stories. So one day you're a vampire and the next you could be a soul reaver. This way you get both sides of the story. When you switch people you kind of lose track of what you were suppose to do before so you kind of have to back track in your head. Unfortunately there is no way to know when you are going to switch players. There are just as many movies in this game. And to make it worse there is no way to skip them. Not to mention that they are pretty langthy. You could go get a bite to eat and when you come back and it would still be on a movie.
