What is Legacy of Kain: Defiance about?

Defiance continues from where Soul Reaver 2 ended. In Soul Reaver 2, Kain saved Raziel's life by drawing the Soul Reaver from him – Raziel was meant to enter the blade and become its soul-devouring spectral half. This causes a paradox that changes time for the worse and separates Kain and Raziel. Kain's part of the game follows him seeking Moebius the Time Streamer, a time-travelling mystic, for answers to where Raziel is, how he has changed time, and later following a lead Moebius gives him to explore a Vampire citadel. During his quest, Kain finds and completes a broken talisman of a Vampire construct known as the Balance Emblem. Kain discovers murals during his quest, dictating an ancient war between the first races to inhabit Nosgoth, the Ancient vampires and the Hylden. After sealing the Hylden in an alternate dimension using the Pillars of Nosgoth, the Hylden cursed the Ancients with bloodthirst, sterility and immortality, turning them into the first Vampires. Kain discovers from the murals that it was prophesied that both races would have a champion arise – a Vampire champion wielding the Soul Reaver, and a Hylden champion wielding a flaming sword. Because he possesses the material Soul Reaver depicted, Kain comes to believe he is the prophesied Vampire champion. The outcome of the battle between the two champions remains ambiguous.

Should I stream Legacy of Kain: Defiance on Twitch?

0/100 · Closed off· 4 viewers per streamer on paper

Probably not. The only English stream here holds all 4 English viewers — once you take it out there is nothing left to reach.

The only English stream here holds all 4 English viewers. There is nothing left over for a second.

Almost nobody here is available to you — either a couple of streams hold the room, or nobody is watching in English, or the category is empty, or you would be buried.

This reads the room as it is right now — how much of the English-speaking audience is reachable and where you would land — not how many followers you would gain. That depends on you.

Where to buy

All plain links straight to the official stores. Some will become affiliate links later, and they’ll be marked with a ♥ when they are — you’ll always be able to tell, and the unmarked ones will always be there.

Is Legacy of Kain: Defiance too saturated on Twitch?

Not crowded, but not open either. Only 1 person is streaming Legacy of Kain: Defiance, and the one English stream holds all 4 English viewers — so the room is quiet because that audience is already committed, not because it is waiting for you.
