    @Spike94: The story in this series is fairly complex. There's time traveling going on and changing fate. I recommend playing Soul Reaver 1 and 2 then Defiance. Blood Omen is not that important, and you can just google 'legacy of kain wiki' and do fine with the backstory for the blood omen games. If you decide to just read up on the Soul Reaver games, that works too. But those 2 games are what many would call the best of the series. Defiance was good, but was not critically acclaimed as the 2 Soul Reaver games that came before it. What system are you playing this on? PS2, XBOX1, PC? I know PS3 has Soul Reaver 1 on PSN. Soul Reaver 2 came out for PS2 and PC only though, so no way to get it on Xbox.

    Ah, thank you and yes, I've heard that about Defiance and SR 1 and 2. I'll watch playthroughs of the Soul Reaver games possibly and read up on Blood Omen. Thanks man.

    Ah, and I have a PS3 that is backwards compatible with PS2 games. Yes, SR1 is on PSN, that's right...saving my money though. Again, might just check out some playthroughs. Thanks again man.
