Which was still pretty great for its time, to be fair.Īnyway, part of the problem with Inheritance from Cain is that without the original discs, you couldn’t really experience it for yourself. It was without a doubt one of the better ends of its time, but I think a lot of the hype was simply due to the sheer amount of double crossings, time paradoxes, and the amount of not-it-was-all-me-alone style turns. I’ve heard some outrageous claims that Inheritance from Cain was one of the best gaming stories of all time that I’m not so sure about.

As is always the case with vampires, the search soon turned into one of betrayal, classic “I made you do this all along” setups, and nearly half an hour of cutscenes that were honestly pretty good for their time.

You have been turned into a simple vampire and sent on a simple quest for revenge. It’s one of those 90s adventures that was amazingly forward-looking in its design. A game that still has a place in my heart, despite seemingly left in the annals of time, will forever be the best Blood Omen: Legacy of Cain.
