If the quest and character design is good, this looks nice.

He said "factions"

Curly haired bathrobe wearing cuck vampire is depressingly telling of their character designs, later confirmed by no tits dangerhair lesbian vampire club owner. I bet we wont see any clearly masculine/feminine npc's that aren't villains.

Him being a dork is the point. That's the vampire who takes you in after you're bitten, a recluse who hides in his house with his windows boarded up and drinks blood from blood packs. He appears in the announcement trailer too and is described in several of the initial preview articles.

"muh oppressed vampires"




H'okay bud I can see where this is going

Isn't a major point of Vampire lore, that later generation vampires are actually the bitches of the elders? What did you expect exactly?

 

[Van-d-all]

The visual tone seems quite right, but the animations are awful, in turn both dialogue faces and combat look incredibly stiff.

Actually remind me of modern corporate pep talks handed to someone that already done them hundreds of times before, despite having zero interest in doing so. Quite IRL.

That's the only character I thought had any potential to be interesting. Kind of a subversion, sort of Jonah Hill the vampire.

 

[Sobchak]

Can't wait to see you all shitting on the game when it's out (because the game looks like shit).

 

[eXalted]

When will we finally have proper subtitles with bigger font and fewer characters per line?

... and darker background, duh

Low effort trolling at its best.I would kill to meet you in person to see what makes person go this insane. Whats the point of telling everything is shit personal frustrations shitty social life???

 

[Love]

I was just happy to see the studio Paradox picked being able to build some environment. I'm quite confident they'll be able to stem the technical side of things, but I'm gonna blame the missing soul solely on Brian Mitsoda and Dick-Mod Carla.

tfw you can be a thousand year old monstrous sociopath who treats the world and your underlings like chattel but someone still feels kinda offended that a dork used the term fascist to describe you

 

[samuraigaiden]

I'm calling it. This game will be bad. Gameplay footage looks weak

My God, such a brave and original call. Tell us, how do you do it?

 

[Maculo]

Visually, I did not hate it, but I was hoping it would retain some of the goth/punk subculture of the original. VTMB had some goofy characters, but they were memorable in my opinion. Also, I thought the trailer music and sound were somewhat generic, and I was hoping they would have a Rick Schaffer track.

 

[Shadenuat]

okay already good news, it doesn't have bioware dialogue wheel.
it doesn't look as awesome and crazy as the first one tho.

 

[Iluvcheezcake]

Pleasantly suprised

Yeah.... he's the first to die horribly. I will be looking for goth hooker vampire trailer footage. I will be depressed if there is none. I hope your actions aren't confined to a damn script.

The first 8 sec... I was thinking batman not superman but yeah... i see that.

 

[Paul_cz]

It looks like it could be a good sequel. Stiff animations are clearly unfinished although who knows if they have budget and people to improve those. But atmosphere seems good which is what matters.

 

[Riddler]

Looks ok but as expected the facial animation and voice acting can't hold a candle to the original, but to be fair few other games could either.

Seems like we'll get an ok game but one lacking the qualities of the originals.

 

[M. AQVILA]

 

[hpstg]

The comments above, and the trailers, actually made me see that the game seems to be missing the extra tick that made the old one special.

Especially if the guy we hear is supposed to be some sort of Jack replacement, then they definitely need someone with more character.

 

[cherry blossom]

It is so silly that the PC just jumps down to the street level whenever they can because cool factor. Nuh-uh boy, that shit costs blood, being a vampire isn't a free-pass to superhuman acrobatics. In source material, that is.

Also, hostiles landing down like Batman/Superman out of nowhere looks like the new random encounters / grind.

Writing looks/sounds very cheap, how can anyone even aspire to make a sequel without getting your writing game first? Voice acting also mediocre and facial aberrations, oops, I meant animations, are really sad.

Music is generic but sort of fit the mood, though if we don't get some gothic/punk/industrial music in the next trailer, then I'll be disappointed.

Looks like a fun game but I don't know about being a BL sequel.

Not to mention the fucking Masquerade.

I think a lot of the voice acting is placeholder. As for facial animations, well, there don't seem to be any yet. There's just nothing going on there. Not that I'm expecting anything amazing, but this stuff is clearly in an early stage. Some of the voice acting sounds better if you're not looking at the faces.

"Pre-alpha" seems about right when looking at the gameplay footage, the worrying bit is the release date being less than a year away.

 

[Mr. Hiver]

The dudes that drop down onto the street is the scene from intro mass embrace that gets you into the thinblood club.

Wouldnt expect to see that often. And besides, Vamps should be able to do such things without much trouble. Because verticality is included a lot into the gameplay, it doesnt make much sense to spend blood for each drop-jump.
