Legacy Of Kain = Dirge of cerberus
Any of you have noticed thata the new VII Dirge Of Cerberus looks very much like the game called Soul Reaver : Legacy Of Kain, The main Hero in the cover is just Vincent´s Twin Brother, same clothes, same attitude , even the screenshots looks like the same gameplay !, what up with this ?
You've uncovered our secret. Wait right there while we send top Square Agents to your house to collect you for "reconditioning" and disposal.
I´m here waiting
I Know is pretty obvious , but I can´t believe nobody get angry about this, looks like a copy , Somebody please put a picture of Vincent and a picture of this guy from Legacy of Kain, what a shame.
Oops, look at that. Not even close.
that is one awesome picture of vincent!

Before Raziel was sacrificed in LoK, he looked very slightly like Vincent - pale skin, long dark hair and a brooding look. Probably because he was a vampire. However, he only looks that way in the very beginning of the intro FMV. I've seen that much in the demo.
Most people feel that the overall 'look' of Dirge of Cerberus is very similar to Devil May Cry, though I've never played that one.
Unlike Legacy of Kain, it looks like DoC won't be an over-the-shoulder style game. Third person, certainly, but with semi-fixed camera angles instead of watching everything from directly over Vincent's shoulder.
Anyone else notice that Vincent seems to be standing on the skeleton of a three-headed dog - i.e; Cerberus - in Kishi's picture?
Isn't Cerebrus much bigger?
In FFVIII, yes. In FFVII, we absolutely cannot say, yet. Maybe that's a Cerberus puppy that Vincent's slaughtered?
Not sure how big the mythical Cerberus was. But then, FF's mythical references often depart from the original material a little.
As for the character design, let's not forget that Final Fantasy VII was before Soul Reaver. As for gameplay, well, the game wasn't even known about a couple of months ago, how can you sit around saying it's a direct copy when you don't even know how the game is going to be? There is very minimal details on the game released so until you can play through and point out what is such a rip off of Legacy of Kain well then... don't point out anything at all.
I think the mythical cerebrus was larger, and I could have sworn it was more of a demonic creature than a skeletal creature. I may be wrong though.
Dirge = sad song, e.g. funeral lament. Vincent could be standing on the skeleton of a long-dead Cerberus-type creature...Originally Posted by Behold the Void
Ah yes, this is true. Always liked Dirges, they tend to sound rather cool by the way.
This would make a lot of sense, but then, we could be being over-intellectual about the whole thing.
So Cerberus is dead, maybe that signifies hell being let loose? So something tragic must happen?
"... and so I close, realizing that perhaps the ending has not yet been written."
Good observation, could be part of the symbolism.
Raziel's way cooler than Vincent anyway.
