Sometimes I wonder if I’m ever going to get away from these games.

Lemme ‘splain.

I first played SR1 when I was just a wee 10-11 year old, way back in the faraway time of 2001. I know it sounds dorky and even childish but I feel like it was actually very formative for me in terms of how it shaped my interests as an adolescent. It certainly gave me taste for a certain kind of game and got me into fandom.

Now, at 23, I’m still playing these games. There’s large time gaps in between my replays but sometimes I find I genuinely miss the characters, which feels strange to say out loud. But yes, I miss Raz and Kain occasionally and I have to do a replay. Maybe it’s a nostalgia thing? LoK reminds me of my childhood? I don’t know. I just wonder if I’m still going to be playing when I’m 50. Sometimes I wonder if that’s a good thing or not.

It’s similar for me too. I can’t replay the games anymore (no patch from thelostworlds.net works on my laptop for some damned reason, plus I really have close to no time for playing video games these days), but I still find myself searching for cutscenes and let’s plays of the series every few months, despite the fact that I really don’t have to because I remember most of the dialogue by heart.

Legacy of Kain was a huge part of my early teenage years and had a massive impact on my young impressionable mind; it probably was one of the first complex stories I got invested in, and certainly the very first one that gave me a number of conflicting emotions. With so many good memories connected to it I think the series will always hold a special place in my heart, no matter how silly it sounds.
