In terms of style and writing, I'd give it to Failbetter Games.
Lord almighty, did they hire Duke Nukem Forever developers to make this?
What happened with Magna Mundi?
Louis, not Lestat.Whoever said "non-consenting Kindred" was onto something, I think. In the latest version of VtM, vampires will be polite good bois who dindu nuffin and ask for consent. Didn't Lestat do that in Interview? That's homoerotic enough to be palatable to the woke.
"I'm going to give you the choice I never had." Something like that's Lestat's line. I didn't remember it before.Louis, not Lestat.Whoever said "non-consenting Kindred" was onto something, I think.

Dude, it's not even close to be the same."I'm going to give you the choice I never had." Something like that's Lestat's line.

You people should cool it with mocking comments, think of every poor consumer who preordered this game for the stop sign
Taking this time to appreciate the comedy of Paradox putting up a stop sign as a preorder bonus while the devs themselves talked about how the stop sign dialogue was insensitive to the mentally ill and they weren't going to include anything like that. P'dox should take this time to consider which direction they want to go in.
I think Spiders/Cyanide have top tier writers, they're just operating within the constraints of what little resources they have. I'd love to see them get a shot at a huge title like this (though I imagine they'll just hand it to Harebrained).
I imagine Cyanide's in the doghouse now on account of Earthblood doing so poorly. The writing was also received quite poorly here.
Oh yeah,they will give it to those sjws for sure. Which is really stupid because they won't be able to do a third person open world rpg for sure. Their forte is making top down TB rpgs with trannies in them. It will be a huge mess if they give it to harebraindead.
Before Bloodlines, Troika had only ever done pseudo-isometric turnbased RPGs and they had never worked with Source before (or anyone else for that matter). I'd have more faith in them shipping a decent RPG than any other Paradox-owned studio. That being said, I doubt it's going to them.
earthblood was funded by uncle sweeneyI imagine Cyanide's in the doghouse now on account of Earthblood doing so poorly. The writing was also received quite poorly here.
Is there a source regarding Earthblood? Not that it would be shocking if it did poorly but still...

At least the Metacritic ratings are not good: https://www.metacritic.com/game/pc/werewolf-the-apocalypse---earthblood
In a world where you can pick up The Last of Us Remastered for a song, there’s no reason to waste your time on Earthblood.
This is a deeply average game reminiscent of cheap B-movies,
video game jo*rnalistsFrom story to visuals to level design, the game feels outdated
I am hopeful we will have a thread along the lines of "Why did Sirotek go bankrupt" several years from now on Bloodlines 2. I want to know the leadup to taking Hardsuit Labs off development. It blows my mind for something reason, especially the press release and how it struggled to put a semi-positive spin on this development.
Off topic, but I am reminded of that retro space horror game Routine, where the developer went AWOL.
There is only one man who can save this doomed project. In fact, that's his specialty.
has there ever actually been a game with a mid-development developer shift that actually turned out ok?
So shitty we have the original Bloodlines to prove it! Wait-We were not there, but I'm not particularly into the mindset that it's always the evil publisher fucking with the good guy dev.We still have utterly no clue as to why Mitsoda got sacked, right?
It's not completely out of the question that he was fairly shitty at doing his job, you know

Lestat was toying around. He is a whimsical character not a human right activist, wtf are you talking about xd
Besides in the books is Marius who sire that writer. The movie took a few licenses.
edit:
What we know is that Mitsoda needs a good team to perform, he's not that great when on his own. Aside from that, we can't conclude.No Mitsoda, no Bloodlines.
I don't see them hiring him back, so it's dead. Irreversible damage to the brand and the game. I have no interest in playing the salvage operation of Mitsoda's game. His characters are what made the original good.
They'd better call whatever game they make something else than Bloodlines.
Mitsoda's the guy who wrote the terribly bland Dead State and insisted that they hire Cara Ellison. His abilities as a writer have deteriorated considerably since 2004.
