We deserve better than Legacy of Kain: Ascendance
Legacy of Kain: Ascendance is a disappointing pixel-art sidescroller that fails to capture the essence of the beloved series. The game introduces a new character, Elaleth, who overshadows established protagonists Raziel and Kain, and features a poorly executed story and inconsistent gameplay. Despite some strong voice acting for Kain, the overall experience is marred by uninspired level design, ugly art, and a lack of identity.
