I will probably regret doing this, but then what is a life without regret, right?
I just finished the last title of the series and, while I really loved the story in general, the ending of Defiance just made me think: "What the hell? This makes no sense."
First of all, how come Kain does not die when Raziel ripped off his heart? And as far as I remember, in BO1 Kain finds the heart of darkness at some point, yet in Defiance he says he never looked for it and apparently does not know he is using it. As he needed Ianos to be murdered in order for him to exist, it makes no sense for me that, even though Kain had access to the time streaming chamber-thingy and knew a lot about his own destiny, he was unaware of Raziel's role in acquiring the heart (SR2, in case you forgot).
Normally I would just ignore this and just accept his "resurrection" as "magic". However, killing Kain was kind of the whole point of Moebius and the Elder God's plans, so it makes no sense that they would overlook the fact that Kain didn't really die after all.
There are many other things which are also unclear for me, but this post is already long enough.
