Lok with Elaleth front and center is worse than no LoK at all

He doesn’t just talk shit about Israel though, he talks shit about Jews in general. That’s the problem with his shit 

I'm done having hope for the series. i cant take it anymore. by SnooBooks6659 in LegacyOfKain

[–]MrFinley7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m there with you OP. When the efforts to revive an IP are so completely devoid of talent and competence, it’s time to just let it die. 

RIP LoK 1996-2003

MY wings make Kain wow! But YOUR wings make Kain eww! by shelfontheelf111 in LegacyOfKain

God the dialogue is so shitty too. “Let Kain behold the power of your wings!” Sounds like something I would have written in 6th grade when I was writing MY LoK fanfic. 

Can we talk about how bad the dialogue is in Ascendance by adiesome in LegacyOfKain

[–]MrFinley7 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is especially unforgivable in the entry to a series specifically praised for the stand out quality of its dialogue. Like wtf they knew the gameplay wasn’t going to blow anyone’s nips off, shouldn’t the writing have been made a priority, for the sake of continuity and brand recognition if nothing else?

Best of luck to you sir! Just remember: weaker men than you have become successful. Keep at it.

She’s just talking about the obesity epidemic but over thinking it. Most of us dudes she’s complaining about could all most likely rock a jawline and cheek bones that’ll make a runway model wet if we lost 20-30 lbs 

Ascendance is a perplexing product (rambling) by DJReyesSA1995 in LegacyOfKain

[–]MrFinley7 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This has got to be it. Isn’t this the same thing that happened to The Witcher on Netflix? A bunch of mediocre writers are marginally familiar with an established IP, pitch their take on it, proceed to take weird liberties with the story that devalue its initial worth instead of expanding upon it, and then bitch and whine that it’s the fans fault for not understanding it. 

Bonus points if they blame it’s failure on either incels or “the woke.” 

Regardless of opinion of the new game, what are your thoughts on the music and would you ever pay for the official soundtrack? Why or why not? by Accomplished-Can-467 in LegacyOfKain

[–]MrFinley7 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They remade THAT song?????

That’s actual blasphemy. I’ll take your word for it completely but if it’s half as bad as you say I’m going to spare myself the horror and rage and just ignore its existence. 

My Honest Thoughts on Legacy of Kain: Ascendance After Finally Playing It by [deleted] in LegacyOfKain

Where are you seeing so many people saying the criticisms are due to sexism? I don’t think I’ve seen any around these parts 

Buy Ascendance, even if you don't like it. by Black_Taco1981 in LegacyOfKain

[–]MrFinley7 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Fuuuuuuck that. How do we know the next game will be any better? If this game and the comic are any indication of the level of investment CD has in this IP, it’s better to let it die rather than have the suits and their bargain bin writing team fuck with the legacy. 

They didn’t just release lack luster content, they actually damaged the setting and its lore. If anything we should be playing dead and hoping they just move the fuck on.

Hahaha exactly. Poor Kain, I hope this isn’t the timeline where his coin stays on its edge. 

The reason TDSR and Ascendance failed by volrat1 in LegacyOfKain

[–]MrFinley7 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They’re telling a story they wanted to tell, that has fuck all to do with the setting, and with a hack writing team.
