missing images: gameplay screens for both Kain and Raziel

Although the game supports all resolutions your display reports as valid, using widescreen resolution will be rather unpleasant since the game understands only 4:3 aspect ratio, so at widescreen resolutions the display appears stretched. Although, the characters are quite spindly, so this may not be as bad as it sounds, the GUI however will appear much larger than it should.
