HOW DID I NOT KNOW YOU LOVED THAT SERIES

HOW

By the way, you do realise you hold a dangerous weapon now, namely the key to my heart, because I am physically incapable of disliking anyone who likes the Legacy of Kain series, and if you ever write even, like, a drabble for it, my soul will explode in flames and joy.

I still watch out for all the other voice actors in the series to see what they're up to. It made Dragon Age: Origins very hard because HOW WAS I MEANT TO KILL KAIN'S VOICE, HOW?

Meeting Janos Audron Rene Auberjonois = the best moment of my life, ever, except possibly the Christmas I got Soul Reaver, or when Muse started playing Map of the Problematique when I saw them in September.

There are games that I adore forever - Digital Devil Saga, Legacy of Kain, Monkey Island, Final Fantasy 7, Devil May Cry, Silent Hill... - but Soul Reaver and The Secret of Monkey Island are both sacred to me.

And as much as Secret of Monkey Island is technically my best game and most important game of all time... it's still Soul Reaver that I would save in a fire where every other videogame in the world blew up.

I could have sworn I mentioned loving the series before? My copy of Blood Omen is cracked and brittle and I'm so afraid it will break one day :( I used to be able to quote huge great swathes of Blood Omen and Soul Reaver, the voices were always so bloody epic. And the plot was terrifying but I played it so many times I think I actually managed to hold it all in once.

Also, I so very nearly wrote you some Legacy of Kain for the Five Acts meme, but my brain seems to be taking this hiatus seriously. FAIL! /o\ But, yes, Simon Templeman, Rene Auberjonois, damn it...Michael Bell. I would have to save all the games from a fire.
