I always thought it would be really groovy if they made a sequel to Defiance where Raziel could still communicate with Kain from inside the Reaver. And he’d be in a much better mood than he was in the other games since it would no longer be his responsibility to figure shit out and Kain’s the one stuck doing all the box puzzles and platforming, so he’d be pretty snarky. Like Morte from Planescape. And instead of imbuing the Reaver with different elements you would now power it up by finding interesting new souls to feed to Raziel. And if you kept feeding him the same stuff he’d get sulky and your attack strength would go down. And maybe there’d be miniquests where he’d demand the souls of obscure creatures, like maybe the soul of a morose teenager or one of those cows with a spot on its hide shaped like Mickey Mouse, or a fajita, and if you fed him what he wanted you’d completely OP the Reaver and win Nosgoth and keep Raziel from going insane.
I don’t guess this is likely to happen now.
