So no getting power ups after defeating a boss a la... any video game where that's a mechanic?
Soul Reaver?
Literally.

If you drain a vampire, you'll be able to bargain with the "Grim Reaper" over their soul. Mechanically, it'll be choosing between some progression bonuses and a plot ability.
Judging by what your vid said, wouldn’t that make the PC a serial killer pariah that the vampires will hunt down out of fear and self-preservation, or does the death curse make that too dangerous? Why doesn’t the death curse curse the cannibal? Or does it?

Actual Reaper? Death has a personification in this setting? Or it is one of those eldritch things.

The Red Judge is more or less an actual reaper, but only for vampires since their souls work differently from a normal human's.

This Tyranicon dude just keeps on spoiling the game.

:positive: You meet the above dude in the first mission of the game.

Complain to his boss.

Fun fact, you can annoy friends and family by constantly making self employed jokes. Like "man, my boss is a real bitch," or the more funny "My boss keeps touching my dick."

The death curse is something the dying vampire says to the Red Judge in a ritualistic manner. It's almost always a curse.

But, in more technical terms it can be considered a

Wish. One that comes with a lot of terms, the chief of them being you can't just wish to not be dead.

Killing any vampire is fraught with complications and dangers. That's one reason why most vampires would rather send expendable humans to do the job instead. I'll probably include a mechanic where the player can also send their own familiars to do the same. Just expect them to die a lot... and it kind of gives the element of surprise away.

So when can I expect to be able to torrent this game?
When you pay Tyranicon an amount of shekels equal to the price of this game.
Silly goy. Torrents are free.
Presumably on release since it has a thread on f95.
I found it! It's strange to see him use an anime girl picture instead of the Binky avatar like he does on here.

Nigga you'll pay one way or the other, just you wait.
I didn't know you were a black goy. I guess you learn something new every day.
Shoo! Back to the bank with you!

When you discover that 50% of codexers go on f95

:hmmm:

But yeah, like I've said before I don't really care about pirating. On one hand I really like money and would appreciate having more of it, but on the other hand I have certain extreme pro-consumer sensibilities.

Sounds like antisemitic fantasies and projection on your part.
