I dont think its ever been stated that Crystal where making a direct sequel to Angel of Darkness. I know they were using the AOD Lara design, but I'm pretty sure the idea of a AOD sequel was scrapped early on way before toby came into the picture.

The magazine was interviewing so it was the creators that said about the engine and the aod thing themself

I dont think a magazine would do a fake interview. That would get them sued big time!

Interesting. Any chance you can get those scanned? Though you are still wrong about the TR Legend engine. I'm sure most of the four years spent on Legend was getting the engine stable. However, the Legend was build on a "heavily-modified" soul reaver 2/defiance souce.

Defiance is crap compared to both Soul Reavers (gameplay wise, at least). It all depends on how you look at it.

And modified or not, TRL does look like Defiance with a face lift (especially noticeable in those little details, where devil usually lurks).

hum perhaps, but still i think that the game is much better than legend, at least they had a good story there, the characters are good and well designed... still i never played the other LoK so i can't compare

LOK is a great series. Crystal D's excuses for Tomb Raider games, however, are not!

Just bought it, not going to play it for a while... at least not until I finish Soul Reaver 2 and Blood Omen 2.

Oddly enough, I got pretty tired of Soul Reaver 2... hence I stopped halfway through it. Liked the first one but still somewhat prefer Blood Omen. Maybe it's Kain... dunno, just griped me more.

"Help me kind sir!!!" XD
