I'll sum it up, paraphrasing here and there:
....
- a lot of people got invited into the beta, but the fine is at $30k if they talk, so nobody's talking
Another translation of same comments on net not sure how accurate:
> And you didn't even see the new Masquerade game, they allowed me to see the beta, but... aside of me being beta tester for shittycode of fucking TES online, KOTOR online and even unreleased version of Fable in its time, I've take a look, tried to test it and I was like "what the fuck? It's so bugged". I've pointed out the most important bugs, written it down and gave them to the support and dev team and guess what, they didn't fix them, just screwed that and then moved the release date.
> You want a "living" world? You ll get a fuckin dead one, just like your protagonist. And ooh fuck me, they parasiteon previous game so... what's even funnier are whores you can't suck on without 5 points of humanity, because you can't even make your arousal up and you go fuck yourself, because it seems that code implies that, but they just don't get you any pussy. Cops are wooden (stiff?) and also fuck me, in fact I'm breaking the NDA and they will make me pay a fine if they know, but knowing the rats on 2ch — they will know.
> Fuck, man, did you read my post? TL;DR of the story - you're little mommies semihobo which gets rejected by his girlfriend because you don't have any job and you're a couch potato. Short after breaking up with the girl, the band of crazy thinbloods attacks you (WHAT A FUCKING TWIST) and bites you, fuck, you're the only surviver. The chick from the vids is a muslim, prays allah much and does jihad to infidels, factions are nominal, you can't join them, you are not even a "fixer" type, you're a piss and shit, who is asked to wipe the shit out after the most powerful ones, no one respects you. Clothes are hoboesque, the plot is pretty dulltoo, only the Maniac-guy is cool, he's written like Jackie and Jhonny - charismatic little bastard you want to be friend with. Ai is stupid, no, it's stupid even with comparison to Cyberpunk. I'm waiting the start of the new beta and will try to sign up again. If they didn't fix shit, I'll make a thread. If they do - buy it.
> Jeanette/Therese Voermann. Yes, she is in one quest, you can't fuck her. Malkavians as a class are fucking lost (bad). You better play the tremere.
> Don't say me shit. I had a good feeling about this beta, but when bugs flow one after another... I remember one in particular, lemme say the best bug on earth. During sexy time with a muslim girl, my character fell down through the bed textures, flew through the skies over this house and died after falling to the asphalt. That was epic. So, wait, bitches. Trust my experience, after beta of this shit I feel like cyberpunk is a god-tier game.
> The thing is that the game uses V5 as a base and it's shit. Everyone has bloodmagic, even thinbloods. By it's nature they are blood mages, because they inherit every bit after some clans. What's even worse is that Tremere clan figured out an algorithm in which young thinblood can enter the diablery clan or make a fullblood transfusion. (I don't exactly get what lad is talking about)
> Half of the Tremeree features from the first game are lost, but there are some good things. They really added them magic, you can summon almost everything, you only need victims. You can summon a local armagge-fuckin-don on the street with a rightly createad pentagram and 5-6 victims. On the other hand, that kind of thing draws yout bloodpoints from tremere and therefore they want to eat like crazy. During beta there was not a single our without maximum hunger and feeding on every hobo I could get to.
>If you're fine with dialogues like:
>"Cross: would you like a dick?
>You, as an MC: yes"
>Then you'll be happy. So far the voiceover was only in english, but dialogues are "childhood tarantino"-tier.
>If you didn't play the first game or read any rulebooks you can lost in the character's logic. Many of nonimportant NPC's don't have logic at all, like, they tell you for 3 hours how they can't kill anybody, because they gave an oath and now they only feed on rats, because they've rad Twighlight (what???) and after 5 minutes they fucking splatter the police spec ops with a wooden board and burn them to the fuck's mother.
>It's a big-big secret. You should write them (not me). They called people to test their game while they had a free time. They took me for a 2 months, some peeps wowrked for a half of year and I fuckin know they are hear, they're just afraid of 30 k bucks sanctions.
