Tags: Troika Games; Vampire: The Masquerade - BloodlinesJolt's review of Troika's Vampire RPG is up. The score comes to 8.2/10.
The underdeveloped combat is merely the most serious of a litany of other complaints though. There are typographic errors, and the game’s frame rate can become distractingly jerky, even on our test machine which runs the superior-looking HL2 with ease. The AI of enemy characters in combat is also poor, ruining the stealth options open to you. The city of LA also has a strangely point and click adventure feel about it – there are always the same few people hanging around, and so the game word fails to convince as a living, breathing city.Well, to be fair, it's a vampire game, so living and breathing wouldn't quite be right.
