Soul Reaver Alpha - Glyphs 

Wait, what? I have played the Medievil but never got the connection, you are right! :O I remember it clearly! I have attempted to complete the advanced stone glyph puzzle in the beta, it was a nightmare and blocks kept disappearing! :/ Yeah, maybe the size of the Lighthouse area was the defining factor in making it last instead of being the first, the other glyphs except the Stone have just a few rooms each.

I've played Medievil 1 and 2 many times, can confirm its the same sound Edit: in fact the life fountain present in every level of Medievil, is almost a carbon copy of the soul fountain you find at the start of the tutorial (in a matter of animations)

I remember originally in one early gameplay I saw the lighthouse was near the tomb of Sarafan, so they moved it twice if I recall correctly

@@kevinchatmajo Really? Do you remember where you have seen it?

@@RainaAudron I remember I saw it on one video that was recorded on the E3 98

That's exactly what I do as well 👍😂

Same here! Music makes the atmosphere! :)

Half of the game is voice acting not music

Square Enix Europe owns the rights and they've expressed no urgency to want to work on a sequel or a reboot.

@@movienerd202 they're idiots.

I tell you it´s perfect for fast paced cycling, though, haha!

@@RainaAudron You know, now that you say it, it does give this a gothic Benny Hill vibe. And now I want to see Raziel being chased by Kain and the lieutenants in said fashion across Nosgoth.

I actually like the alpha version of necropolis music a bit more, even though I agree the version they've chosen for the finished game fits better... huh, curious.

You are totally right.

Thank you! I have added it on :)

@@RainaAudron Great! :)

I suspect they wanted to make the combat much harder than it ended up being in the retail. Swarms of vampires that are actually tough to kill and so the glyphs would've actually been useful.

The Hylden did not exist at the time of SR1 was designed and Raziel had yet to travel back and cause the paradoxes which let them out, so not sure if this would make sense. I do not think that CD decided where did those forges originated in SR1. Also some forges are inside structures built by humans during Kain´s empire like in the Silenced Cathedral. Who put that one there and why? This is a difficult thing to explain :D

@@RainaAudron The idea is based on the "we already have 5 games in the franchise, now lets remove the plotholes" line of thinking for a might-be remake or idea on how to continue the further story. It's not a substitute for content explanation from a two decades old game. Besides this idea comes from another youtube discussion about "how one can make Legacy of Kain franchise work in 202x". As for timelines and stuff - IMHO, that's the game development in a nutshell. You can only work with what you have and good ideas can come up/realized after there's a game or two under belt. As for letting them dogs out - as far as I know they wouldn't even need such things. Hylden of course wouldn't have Janos Audron body to open the portal into Hyldemon dimension, but they at the very least could possess humans to do their bidding since the pillars are broke. Besides, they could just build over the already intact structures, an idea I present in the next paragraph. Silenced Cathedral-wise - I think this can be explained by the core layers shifting, opening new parts of the corrupted Nosgoth. So those Hylden secrets become "visible" in this era, especially with the Nosgoth decaying. Besides - I really doubt humans would've built all the structure from grounds level. They might've based the structure over a mountain. As for example take this concept art: www.thelostworlds.net/SR1/Images/Cathedral_Pinnacle-Cathedral-02.JPG P.S. I think with some good dedication to research and review one can "lorify" new ideas and explain some of the mysteries of Nosgoth from previous games all the while not endangering the main storyline.

it's only ineffective against rahabim and humans all the other vampires are fair game what are you talking about?
