You ever start up a game and immediately feel "oh this was made by the B team", look it up and confirm that's true? Well, that's Blood Omen 2 so far.
Not bad, just notably not as immediately impressive as Soul Reaver and Soul Reaver 2. The camera-relative movement has been replaced by tank controls, and the facial animations that rivaled (and stood above, imo) Kingdom Hearts have been replaced with the standard open-shut-open-shut jawbone loop.
