We’re in charge of the next legacy of Kain …..what would your approach be?”

Thank you for sending me this.

I cannot speak for anyone else, but if I were in charge, it would be a total remake. I would give it the LAU treatment. It would essentially be the same story, with the same characters, but updated. A reimagining.

Take the story back to the start and remake it with today’s tech, upgraded physics, controls, fight mechanics, new puzzles, the entire works.

But the most important thing is that it feels like a Legacy of Kain game.

For that you’d have to use the same rich aesthetic with deep, jewelled colours of the original series. Not the washed-out, grey-brown AC/Skyrim style palette that was all the rage in the last decade.

Remaster the soundtrack with strong leanings into the original themes.

Ideally enlist the help of Amy Hennig with the script and direction. She’s still out there, making games. I’m sure she’d love to remake and finish what she started. Allow her to tell the story she wanted to tell without interference.

If Amy wasn't available, at least stay true to that original tone. One of the most applauded things about Legacy of Kain is the Shakespearean-style dialogue, and that can’t change. Or it just won’t feel like Legacy of Kain.

Recast with some of the new exceptional voice talent out there today. Don’t be hung up on ‘you can’t recast this role’ - it’s been done before in other series and worked amazingly well (God of War, for example). I’ll save my ideal LoK recastings for another post.

Start with Blood Omen. But keep the third-person action adventure style of the Soul Reaver era.

Re-write the story with diverse characters.

Don’t fall into the Trinity trap. The rule of thumb in writing circles is this. If your female character can be replaced by a signpost for your male protagonist to learn from and surpass without changing the story, then she wasn’t a ‘strong female character’ after all.

Disclaimer - Ariel is not a strong female character, but she was never meant to be. Someone had to play that role, be it male or female. That doesn't mean there cannot be others. But I’d rather have no representation than bad representation.

Gender-bending a few of the brothers would be one way to do it. Or re-instate the sorceress content. But no nudity, and no modern swearing. Sex is great, but if all you have is sex appeal, strip that away, it’s still a bad game. Sex appeal is just unnecessary window dressing to a story like Legacy of Kain.

Don’t use poor treatment of a female character to motivate your male protagonist. Raziel didn’t need female trauma dangled in front of him as motivation, and neither should Kain, or anyone else, for that matter.

Bodyshock is fine. It's always been part of Legacy of Kain, but again, don’t take a pregnant woman and turn her and her child into some kind of abomination. Female trauma for shocks is cheap. If you’re going to do that to a female protagonist (say, Ripley, for example), then at least you’re not taking away her agency. But if you’re doing it just to motivate your male character, it takes away her agency and becomes highly misogynistic.

Above all, finish the story. Don’t let Raziel heal the scion of balance and then say, ‘Oh well, part three was the end of the story’ - make his journey and sacrifice mean something.

Allow your protagonists to jump around in time, but their personal journeys must have a beginning, a middle, and a meaningful, satisfying end.

What do you think? How would you do it? Let me know your thoughts.

Sheep farmers and shearers are increasingly recognizing the benefits of helmets for their herds as the simplest and least expensive way to improve flock safety.

While many may think of helmets as a safety measure reserved for motorcyclists and athletes, recent studies have found that they can greatly reduce the risk of injury and death in sheep flocks. A shortage of experienced shearers, changing weather patterns and seasonal demands make head injuries a serious issue for sheep farmers.

Helmets have helped to address the problem. They offer extra protection against blunt trauma impacts during shearing operations and prevent serious injuries due to headbutting between sheep. The padding also reduces the risk of bodyshock resulting from excessive heat or cold. Many shearers have found that sheep wearing helmets were more confident, and therefore more cooperative, during shearing operations.

Integrating helmets into the shearing process also leads to other benefits. Some farmers have reported a drop in mortality rates, along with an increase in wool quality and production. This improved wool gains a higher price in the market, resulting in greater returns for the farmer, averaging an additional £50 to £60 for each head of sheep sheared.

Helmets are an inexpensive and low-maintenance way to protect a valuable part of a farm's business. As studies continue to demonstrate their effectiveness, they will likely become more popular in the near future. With more sheep farmers employing this simple measure, sheep communities will become safer and more profitable than ever before.
