Game News Shades of ToEE! Unofficial Bloodlines patch from Dilapidation

[Otaku_Hanzo]

You will be breaking the Sixth Tradition by killing him though :

• Destruction - Thou art forbidden to destroy another of thy kind. The right of destruction belongeth only to thine elder. Only the eldest among thee shall call the blood hunt.

Well, I wasn't sure on the exact wording or anything like that. As I said, I never really played. Just hung out with friends who did and learned stuff about if from them. I did read the rules books, but that was like four years ago and I didn't really commit it to memory. Just read them for something to read at the time. Thanks for the heads up though.

 

[Sol Invictus]

So killing all the Plaguebearers is wrong, eh?

 

[Major_Blackhart]

Well, a primogen does ask you to take care of that problem for the Camarilla.

 

[Sol Invictus]

What about David Hatter and the thinblood with the movie script?

 

[Mendoza]

Well given the general feeling towards thinbloods, a lot of the Camarilla would probably think you were doing them a favour, or at least turn a blind eye.

Regardless, no one actually knows that you killed Julius.

 

[Saint_Proverbius]

Well, whether you talked him out of killing again or killed him, either way, he's done with the killing, right? So, why should you get a Masquerade violation for talking him out of it? Yeah, it's all over the news and in the papers, but it's not like killing him will erase that anymore than if he stops doing it because your talkie character explains it away.

Either way, it's rather obvious that's the intent of the scripting to give that violation. It's not a bug. It may be a questionable design choice, but it's not a bug or a glitch. That's one reason why I don't like these fan patches, because they change things that are supposed to be like that just because they don't agree with them.

 

[Whipporowill]

Nope, it's not over. He clearly states that he will continue to deal out his twisted version of "justice" where it is needed.

 

[Vault Dweller]

Nope, it's not over. He clearly states that he will continue to deal out his twisted version of "justice" where it is needed.

Not if you ask him if his family would have approved of that

 

[Whipporowill]

I guess I missed that one, even with my persuasive ventrue.

 

[Sol Invictus]

He thinks he's the Punisher, but clearly he doesn't intend to kill 'cleanly'.

 

[Otaku_Hanzo]

Not if you ask him if his family would have approved of that

Yeah. Just make the right choices in conversation and you can get him to swear off completely from killing again and instead leave the area to never return and live his unlife elsewhere.

SP: I agree that this wasn't a bug. It's a poor design decision though, and I don't even understand why White Wolf even went for it, because I'm totally sure they were there monitoring the whole thing. Especially since this game is supposed to be the end of the Masquerade series.

I'm not a lover of fan made patches either. Certainly not downloading this one. I just agree with the removal of that violation mark is all. It fits into the rules better.

did this fanpatch break the nosferatu hub quest for anyone else?
