Raziel hated his undead form and what he had become after Kain damned him to the abyss. But in this moment, he condemned himself for what he had done to Janos as a human. Like Kain said himself, Raziel believed the Sarafan were noble and altruistic. But only here did Raziel realise the sarafan were more monstrous than he could ever imagine, including himself. Damn! Raziel truly is a tragic hero!
When their eyes locked, the Sarafan Raziel had felt a connection to this demon before him. A sense of familiarity that at that moment had given him so many questions. Meanwhile the Wraith Raziel is horrified to witness a moment he remembers having done before, thousands of years of retrospection had made him look upon this moment with disgust. He knows what he must do.
"Reputed to have been ripped from the chest of the greatest vampire to have ever existed, Janos Audron, the heart of darkness restores vampiric un-life. Life is precious, Janos discovered - as it was torn throbbing and bleeding from his own body." - Kain (Blood Omen) On a side note, the Sarafan's actions in the series almost make the Dawnguard look like pussycats in comparison.
For sure, and showing how Raziel came to resent what he first assumed was noble about his past as part of the Sarafan, and seeing what Kain was implying about how their beliefs were on par with fanaticism.
This is a beautiful story, first, Kain watched Vorador's death and now Raziel with Janos, and the moment when he saw his human form was exceptional... five stars vid! Vae Victus!
@jakespnl463 If you played Defiance, you would know the truth. SPOILER: Raziel is really a vampire messiah (he heals Kain of Nupraptor's madness and sacrifice himself to make Soul Reaver for Kain) and hylden champion ( he "kills" Kain to acquire Heart of Darkness from Kain chest and resurrects Janos Audron which he becomes possessed by Hylden Lord / Hash'agik / future Sarafan Lord) Janos in Soul Reaver 2 thought that Raziel is Scion of Balance (wings etc.) but he was wrong. Scion is Kain.
And then, the poor deluded Raziel tries to play the avenging hero which backfires spectacularly when Moebius forces him to take the Reaver and it starts to devour him.
As a player, I hated this part... but as a watcher, it's one of my favorites: the way Raziel is torn apart by Janos' fall is priceless. I never thought I would see a being like Raziel so at the brink of tears. It reminds me to the Epilogue in Defianca... Kain's final line is remarkable. D.R.
"The Heart of Darkness Reputed to have been ripped from the chest of the greatest vampire to have ever existed, Janos Audron, the Heart of Darkness restores vampiric unlife. Life is precious, Janos discovered - as it was torn throbbing and bleeding from his own body."
Ironic Human Raizle rips out the heart, years later as a wraith Raziel riped it out again from another Vampire Kain to give it back to the dude it riped it out from in the first place lol
In hindsight its amazing how you never even meet Janos until very far into the game you only hear about him from other characters. Then when you do meet him it's pretty fleeting and he's such a likeable character who's death devastated you. Just goes to show how outstanding the writing is in this series.
cf. "But tell me, before I tear your soul from its moorings, do you know what we were before Kain spawned us?" "Human." "Sarafan, Rahab. The antithesis of all we ever believed." "Does it matter? We were lost. He saved us." "Saved us? From what?" "From ourselves."
0:35 "Look at this black heart, how schtill it beats! ...Or how it still beats, would probably be better wouldn't it? Look at his black heart, how SHTILL it beats! I'm not gonna be able to say it! We'll have to change the whole story!" 1:50 "I'm dying, give me a break here!" Check the SR2 outtakes, funny as hell! XD
It was such a brilliant twist that the human Raziel was the one who killed Janos. At the the start of the game, Wraith Raziel mentioned to Kain that he believed the Sarafan were saviours. Here, that belief ends up being completely shattered when he witnesses how savage they were. And shows disgust at his human self.
Soul Reaver 2 Janos: Raziel you are the Scion of Balance Raziel: Really? cool! Definace Janos: You have to seek for the Scion of Balance Raziel: I kill him
@Mrtvababa Time travel - when Raziel encounters him in Defiance, it was actually moments before he died - when Raziel first sees him, he's speaking telepathically to Kain, calling him to the last fight (you hear this after killing Moebius in BO1) - the 'Come to my, my undead son..." speech. After he speaks to Raziel, he teleports out - going to the Pillars to meet Kain (and ultimately, his death). He knows this is coming, as he makes clear in his conversation with Raziel.
Amy Hennig was the director/writer and Richard Lemarchand was the game designer- both left Crystal Dynamics. The voice actor Tony Jay and Crystal Dynamics employee Kyle Mannerberg passed away. Despite the easter egg of the Soul Reaver sword in Tomb Raider, there was the idea of a game called Legacy of Kain: The Dark Prophecy, but 3 months into production it was canceled.
Kain himself described time as a huge torrent on a river that is unaltered. In reality, this explains the volume flow rate, where passing a large volume of water through a narrow tube does change the speed but not the final amount of water falling from the outlet. They replaced the water with time in the game, where the final outcome of events are unaltered.
Mortanius used it to resurrect Kain. Mortanius was one of the Circle of Nine, so he had access to it after the Sarafan took it (evidenced by Vorador's slaying of the Circle occurring within the Sarafan Stronghold itself).
Soul Reaver 1 players! The scene right before Raziel jumps from the keep was one of the omniscient portals, remember? They carried out all of them, though altered the one with Ariel.
Human Raziel: "What?! Another fiend?! ....Wait, why in all of Nosgoth do I have this funny feeling...?" Wraith Raziel: "No, it can't be! I ripped the heart of Janos Audron?!"
I'm hoping that they make another. Maybe bringing back Janos, maybe even having him evolve into something cooler. HIm and Raziel are the closest to being good guys in the series.
It all depends on the POV. As far as humans knew, Janos fed on humans. Sarafan Raziel couldn't see the difference between Vorador (who I rate as a nasty Vampire) and Janos (who is a good one). Vampires feeding on humans is what caused the Sarafan to be created in the first place.
Janos gets such a bum deal in the legacy of kain story. Janos lives for centuries alone. Janos is killed having his heart ripped out. Janos is resurrected, only to be possessed. Janos' possession turns him into a monster until he's freed. Janos gets thrown into a demon dimension never to be seen again. Maybe the writers forgot to add in he had a happy family who died, had a puppy who got thrown into a blender, and accidentally blew up the planet while their at it.
@Mrtvababa Who, Moebius? Mortanius? Raziel? I'm not sure I understand the question. Kain made his choice at the pillars while Raziel was talking to Janos - the pillars exploding in the background is the outcome thereof.
Janos seems to be modeled on Béla Lugosi with his portrayal of Dracula in 1931. Béla was the very first vampire on-screen. Lugosi was Romanian, so maybe it was a Romanian accent.
this is one of the most crutial scene i think. this event sparked vorador to kill 6 of the 9 guardians, and malek was delayed by mobieus and raziel from saving them. and the black heart was used to raise kain as a vampire.
As long as the heart still beats, it can be returned to the body and bring it back to life. I guess it's like how Dumah, even though he was impaled, could still be brought back to life one the lances were removed. I like to think that Janos isn't dead, but in limbo like Dumah was. Then again, I could be wrong.
Poor Janos, the folklore of mankind made him seem like a monster, but he's really a compassionate being. I was happy when he was resurrected in Defiance, but then sad again when he got trapped in the demon dimension in Blood Omen 2. The last ancient caught in the realm of the mortal adversary. He'll either die quickly or not at all. I'm sad now...
You have a point, but remember from Soul Reaver 2 that the Elder God is not in a single stationary place. His presence is throughout the Spectral Realm, even under the Pillars of Nosgoth. His manipulations is what started the war between the Hylden and the Winged Vampires. But I hear what you're saying, they could possibly continue with that chapter being closed. They had planned one called Legacy of Kain: The Dark Chronicle, but the idea was shelved.
I know why the sword wanted to take ion Raziel's soul, because in Soul Reaver 1 it didnt try to do that. In this game it didnt try to do that until he killed his formal self and in Defiance it sucked in Raziel's soul because If he didn't kill his formal self than none of the things about the reaver taking in his soul would happen
Since Raziel is now the spirit of the purified Soul Reaver, I don't really see how he could return. As for Janos, Kain still has the options Raziel's sacrifice granted him and so Nosgoth could yet be saved, perhaps Janos as well. But we'll never know since two very important people behind the game passed away and Amy Hennig left Crystal Dynamics.
@WweUndertaker2 the reaver wanted him because he infact is the soul inside of the blade, it had a desire to become whole again, he discovers it at the end of soulreaver 2 that he is the spirit inside the real blade, hence why the wraith blade was able to bond with him so easily.
Raziel is still quite arrogant and cocky much like he was in life. Hell, it was his arrogance that got him chucked into the Abyss in the first place. lol.
they could do a new branch of the legacy of kain series where u play as janos after he is thrown into the demon realm, maybe get kain to go on some sort of vampiric crusade there too it would be a nice way to continue and avoid the problems caused by the death of the elder god in real life
I'm sorry for Janos, but I see where the Sarafan are coming from. Remember: Moebius likely utterly convinced them that Janos had committed countless bloody deeds against defenseless humans. That means they were likely all too happy to kill him.
@PenguinsRuleThaWorld Mortanius, not only used the Heart of Darkness to resurrect Kain, but he actually hid it INSIDE him...and thats where Raziel finds it....
No real way to test your theory, since you can't unequip the Reaver, but this would be the rough equivalent of completing all 6 fights without taking more then 5 or 6 hits - even for a master of the game, this would be a difficult proposition.
Kinda gets what he deserves imo, considering that he engaged in a blind, genocidal crusade in the name of the Elder God and his Wheel of Fate and banished the only race that resisted into eternal suffering. Raziel is so sympathetic to the Vampiric cause but is like ''oh, so the Hylden were a race at war with the Vampires, cool''. He doesn't seem particularily moved by the fact that Janos would've banished/killed him for the same reasons he did the Hylden... ah well, loose plot thread I guess.
damn i like janos' accent.. he sounds like dracula. anyone know what accent is that? i wonder how he still lives without his heart.. even for a few seconds.
man its been so long since i have played all the 3 games of this series.Why didnt raziel just bust in there and own those humans?I forgot mostly everything since i dont play console games no more but LOK is a game that i will always like.
Most definitely not. If you've played the game, you know how difficult they are to beat even with the Blood Reaver - doing it bare-handed would be near impossible. :)
He doesn't remember anything of his life before he was raised as a vampire. He had some gross misconceptions about what he and the Sarafan were like; that's the bulk of his character development though the game - realizing that he wasn't the righteous saint he believed he was, and coming to terms with his new self.
@@Joudas I have a question, why is it Kain can remember his life as a human but Raziel cannot! Also were the sarafan his biological brothers? or just brother in arms then became his vampire brothers in his next life as a vampire
@@TheRatzor They weren't biological brothers, but they consider themselves brothers after being raised as vampires, with Kain as their father. (I believe it's the Soul Reaver 1 intro where he mentions this.) Regarding their memories, I don't think it's ever directly addressed, but it's likely handwaved as a result of their very different method of resurrection - perhaps Kain purposely did something to make them not remember their former lives when resurrecting them as vampires (because it would have been inconvenient for him if they had), whereas Mortanius specifically wanted Kain to remember his previous life when he was raised (since his resurrection was the result of a bargain Mortanius made with him in the afterlife).
so wait razile was never the vampire messiah or the hylden chamipon he was merely just a wraith just consuming souls im really confused is he the vampire champion or hylden
no dude, the blood is all the way to the celing. it covers the crystal. it;s a damn glitch, and so I had to erase my file, and have to redo everything. at times i would swim, other times I was walking around in the blood like it wasn't even there. so fucking frustrating.,
i just got this far, but didn't get the fire reaver. the blood filled the entire room, and it won't go down. i saved game in the spectral realm. now when i load game the blood is still up to the ceiling. so fuck it. i'll just watch the cinemas that i won't get to see on here. fucking stupid glitches.
Raziel’s puzzled “what the hell is that thing” stare down at his deformed future self never gets old lol.
Someone said: "You harvest what you sow".
Raziel hated his undead form and what he had become after Kain damned him to the abyss. But in this moment, he condemned himself for what he had done to Janos as a human. Like Kain said himself, Raziel believed the Sarafan were noble and altruistic. But only here did Raziel realise the sarafan were more monstrous than he could ever imagine, including himself.
Damn! Raziel truly is a tragic hero!
Mmhmm! And what was done by the Sarafan ties to how Kain said they had the same agenda as his failed empire, but for different reasons.
When their eyes locked, the Sarafan Raziel had felt a connection to this demon before him. A sense of familiarity that at that moment had given him so many questions. Meanwhile the Wraith Raziel is horrified to witness a moment he remembers having done before, thousands of years of retrospection had made him look upon this moment with disgust. He knows what he must do.
"Reputed to have been ripped from the chest of the greatest vampire to have ever existed, Janos Audron, the heart of darkness restores vampiric un-life. Life is precious, Janos discovered - as it was torn throbbing and bleeding from his own body."
- Kain (Blood Omen)
On a side note, the Sarafan's actions in the series almost make the Dawnguard look like pussycats in comparison.
In almost all my Skyrim playthrough i always side with Volkihar vampires and destroy the dawnguard, maybr because of this scene...
Imagine if instead of killing Harkon, you just rip his heart out.
Well, the dawnguard is significantly more justified. Vampires in Skyrim are the parasitic spawn of Daedric rape, while Janos is akin to an angel.
And how the Heart helped set prophecy into motion when Mortanius used it to turn Kain into a vampire and thus the Scion of Balance.
The way Raziel says 'While i have taken yours' is just heartbreaking man. The voice acting in this series is on another level.
only beef I had with this masterpiece is that they made vampires sound like count chocula still the best game I've ever played
For sure, and showing how Raziel came to resent what he first assumed was noble about his past as part of the Sarafan, and seeing what Kain was implying about how their beliefs were on par with fanaticism.
This is a beautiful story, first, Kain watched Vorador's death and now Raziel with Janos, and the moment when he saw his human form was exceptional... five stars vid!
Vae Victus!
Janos love, empathy, faith and wisdom, even in his uttermost weakness and defeat always brings tears to me.
@jakespnl463 If you played Defiance, you would know the truth.
SPOILER: Raziel is really a vampire messiah (he heals Kain of Nupraptor's madness and sacrifice himself to make Soul Reaver for Kain) and hylden champion ( he "kills" Kain to acquire Heart of Darkness from Kain chest and resurrects Janos Audron which he becomes possessed by Hylden Lord / Hash'agik / future Sarafan Lord) Janos in Soul Reaver 2 thought that Raziel is Scion of Balance (wings etc.) but he was wrong. Scion is Kain.
True
And then, the poor deluded Raziel tries to play the avenging hero which backfires spectacularly when Moebius forces him to take the Reaver and it starts to devour him.

That line has stayed in my head for years
Raziel's human form was evil.
I wouldn't call him Evil, definitely an asshole lol but in human Raziel mindset Vampires were Evil
Evil characters turning good are best
Or reverse
Can't really blame human raziel, he just did what mobius told him, a guy with the power to see the future
Raziel was simply unenlightened
It was such a brilliant twist that the human Raziel was the one who killed Janos.
At the the start of the game, Wraith Raziel mentioned to Kain that he believed the Sarafan were saviours. Here, that belief ends up being completely shattered when he witnesses how savage they were. And shows disgust at his human self.

Dumah was voiced by Simon Templeman in both Soul Reaver and Soul Reaver 2.
Mortanius used it to resurrect Kain. Mortanius was one of the Circle of Nine, so he had access to it after the Sarafan took it (evidenced by Vorador's slaying of the Circle occurring within the Sarafan Stronghold itself).

I've always hated that Janos was never rescued from the demon realm after the events of Blood Omen 2
Maybe the Scion of balance would have opted to save him post defiance
Human Raziel: "What?! Another fiend?! ....Wait, why in all of Nosgoth do I have this funny feeling...?" Wraith Raziel: "No, it can't be! I ripped the heart of Janos Audron?!"
one of the oldes you tuve videos i was playing this game when at the same time as you
They had Moebius' staff - which can disable Raziel's wraith blade.
Even if the staff disabled the blade why didn't Raziel attack them? He was surely strong enough to dispatch them with just his claws.
Yeah, seriously... How the hell does one look BETTER when they're dead? lol
Rip René
I'm hoping that they make another. Maybe bringing back Janos, maybe even having him evolve into something cooler. HIm and Raziel are the closest to being good guys in the series.
Well he is in Blood omen 2 too bad he slipped and fell to hell.
I almost cried when I first saw janos die I know it seems wierd but hey
Raziel the human was very EVVILL
How so?
It all depends on the POV. As far as humans knew, Janos fed on humans. Sarafan Raziel couldn't see the difference between Vorador (who I rate as a nasty Vampire) and Janos (who is a good one). Vampires feeding on humans is what caused the Sarafan to be created in the first place.
Same. Poor Janos. It's hard enough to see such a vampire scream in terror let alone get his heart torn out.
Janos gets such a bum deal in the legacy of kain story.
Janos lives for centuries alone.
Janos is killed having his heart ripped out.
Janos is resurrected, only to be possessed.
Janos' possession turns him into a monster until he's freed.
Janos gets thrown into a demon dimension never to be seen again.
Maybe the writers forgot to add in he had a happy family who died, had a puppy who got thrown into a blender, and accidentally blew up the planet while their at it.
Raziels fate was far worse, forever trapped in the reaver
1:37
I can't.... I just can't...
@Mrtvababa Who, Moebius? Mortanius? Raziel? I'm not sure I understand the question. Kain made his choice at the pillars while Raziel was talking to Janos - the pillars exploding in the background is the outcome thereof.
aaaw. raziel gets so choked up.
Janos seems to be modeled on Béla Lugosi with his portrayal of Dracula in 1931. Béla was the very first vampire on-screen. Lugosi was Romanian, so maybe it was a Romanian accent.
"To save your life this once." Yeahhhhh about that...
this is one of the most crutial scene i think. this event sparked vorador to kill 6 of the 9 guardians, and malek was delayed by mobieus and raziel from saving them. and the black heart was used to raise kain as a vampire.
16 years ago damn.
From their filthy, unworthy hands
Raziel is pretty much like Al Simmons when he became Spawn
Man... this is really really sad...
If someone tears your heart out Im pretty sure lasts words would be "ACKBLUUEEECCKK(GGGJAJJ]PPPPFFFTTTTYYYYYYY........DEAD."
you're right! Had this not happened this entire series would've not existed! Poor Janos :(
Yup. Exactly. Which is why I don't truly blame the Sarafan. As far as Human Raziel was concerned, he was striking a decisive blow for humanity.
At least he gets it back in defiance...only to become possessed later on...*sob*
@Joudas then how did he die in the elder god chamber at the same time the kain junior was making his choice....
No, he thought Raziel was the balance guardian. He was surprised when he found out the truth in Defiance.
It's interesting to see how Raziel sees Janos as a sort of mentor :)
As long as the heart still beats, it can be returned to the body and bring it back to life. I guess it's like how Dumah, even though he was impaled, could still be brought back to life one the lances were removed. I like to think that Janos isn't dead, but in limbo like Dumah was.
Then again, I could be wrong.
Poor Janos, the folklore of mankind made him seem like a monster, but he's really a compassionate being. I was happy when he was resurrected in Defiance, but then sad again when he got trapped in the demon dimension in Blood Omen 2. The last ancient caught in the realm of the mortal adversary. He'll either die quickly or not at all. I'm sad now...

I'm surprised my dreams aren't haunted.
You have a point, but remember from Soul Reaver 2 that the Elder God is not in a single stationary place. His presence is throughout the Spectral Realm, even under the Pillars of Nosgoth. His manipulations is what started the war between the Hylden and the Winged Vampires. But I hear what you're saying, they could possibly continue with that chapter being closed.

Damn same hairstyle!

Raziel is still quite arrogant and cocky much like he was in life. Hell, it was his arrogance that got him chucked into the Abyss in the first place. lol.
I'm not sure growing wings is something that can be controlled. Raziel probably showed Kain his wings as an attempt to honor him.
they could do a new branch of the legacy of kain series where u play as janos after he is thrown into the demon realm, maybe get kain to go on some sort of vampiric crusade there too
it would be a nice way to continue and avoid the problems caused by the death of the elder god in real life

I don't know. King Ottmar was okay. Mortanius wasn't so bad, either (he WAS trying to save Nosgoth in his own way).
@Joudas but wasnt mortanius slain by Kain,how did he apear in defiance?
nvm i mistook mobius for mortanius
Mortanius died in the first game
u know doesnt feel like raziel is like the son of janos i just have that feeling
Does anyone realize that Raziel doesn't ever die in the game he just returns to the spectral realm. So how could his life be saved
Janos doesn't know that Raziel is indestructible and undying. The futility of the sacrifice is what makes it all the more tragic.
No real way to test your theory, since you can't unequip the Reaver, but this would be the rough equivalent of completing all 6 fights without taking more then 5 or 6 hits - even for a master of the game, this would be a difficult proposition.
zephon and melchiah werent there only rahab dumah turel and raziel were.
you forgot ....nosferatu ....i dont remember the namer of the actor....something like "max shrecker"
Kinda gets what he deserves imo, considering that he engaged in a blind, genocidal crusade in the name of the Elder God and his Wheel of Fate and banished the only race that resisted into eternal suffering.

damn i like janos' accent.. he sounds like dracula. anyone know what accent is that? i wonder how he still lives without his heart.. even for a few seconds.
but his was bitterly short
Anybody got this shit recommend 13 years later?
hell yeah fam
now we only need vampire raziel for a super-awesome-nosgothic triple-threat match. vampire would win, cuz he can fly.
man its been so long since i have played all the 3 games of this series.Why didnt raziel just bust in there and own those humans?I forgot mostly everything since i dont play console games no more but LOK is a game that
i will always like.
In 0:16 human raziel have funny hands
When did he ressurect Kain, did that take place in Blood Omen?
Hm, it's fine for me. Maybe it's just your monitor settings?
Anyway, great videos. :)
Why raziel is standing and watching ?
Most definitely not. If you've played the game, you know how difficult they are to beat even with the Blood Reaver - doing it bare-handed would be near impossible. :)
Why is Raziel so surprised. Doesn’t he remember killing Janos?
He doesn't remember anything of his life before he was raised as a vampire. He had some gross misconceptions about what he and the Sarafan were like; that's the bulk of his character development though the game - realizing that he wasn't the righteous saint he believed he was, and coming to terms with his new self.

pole face, bela wasn't the first, max schrek was in nosferatu
i love Janos
Janos RULES ^_^
so wait razile was never the vampire messiah or the hylden chamipon he was merely just a wraith just consuming souls im really confused is he the vampire champion or hylden
He is both.
janos's accent is russian, although his name is hungarian...nothing of it's description reminds of any romanian origins.
Sad... And I so lubiałam Janos (one around few which Raziela isn\'t trying to kill) I apologise for my horrible English only I am studying
When Spoony was still cool ;/
it was an awsome scene
What do you mean?
hey his accent is not that bad *^^*
I actually like Janos alot. Seeing him dying was not easy on me. Actually he dies every time -_-"
no dude, the blood is all the way to the celing. it covers the crystal. it;s a damn glitch, and so I had to erase my file, and have to redo everything. at times i would swim, other times I was walking around in the blood like it wasn't even there. so fucking frustrating.,
i just got this far, but didn't get the fire reaver. the blood filled the entire room, and it won't go down. i saved game in the spectral realm. now when i load game the blood is still up to the ceiling. so fuck it. i'll just watch the cinemas that i won't get to see on here. fucking stupid glitches.
The storyline in Grandia is not really that good... play the Legacy of Kain series.
