Can't you see this is dude and he has a dick ? And you will love sucking it.
Look at the face. Tits are fake.

Men can have tits too. Bigot.

You do sound excited.

I am immensely enjoying this.

Shorter Point: GAMES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FUN!

Who cares whether Malkavians are a realistic and empathetic portrayal of real world mental illness? Who asks for that? Who expects that? They were fun! And that's what matters!

Really fuck those overprivileged SJW party poopers to death. If you think politically correctness is more important than fun your game is going to suck.

And which vampire cares about gender pronouns?! "I fleshcrafted this abomination out of multiple people, but I made sure that I always addressed them with the right pronouns! Unfortunately the abomination could not tell me xir preferred pronoun for xir's only vocalization is tortured screams. So I am addressing it as xir which is the correct pronoun to use in such a case according to the Handbook of Intersectional Vicissitude."

why do you need mods, isn't pretending it was always a female what people are "supposed" to do anyways in those cases


plus it's not like they're going to model a bulge

 

[Life of the Party]

He’s my bae

You are hitlerjew

 

[Riddler]

So, what I'm getting from this is that trans vampires will be slaves to the Tzimisce, the most vile and evil of all the clans.

Yes.

No crime too vile, no horrific acts of inhumanity too extreme, a willingness to stoop to any level of depravity for the chance of the Tzimisce finally chopping your dick off.

Sounds good to me.

 

[DJOGamer PT]

20+ fucking pages in less than a day for the cash grab sequel to a good (but not that good) game from than 10 years ago. Jeez...

You guys should just accept it. There are no good Western AAA developers anymore. The best hope for the Western game industry is that all the AAA studios crash and burn, and the few quality Indies rise from their corpses.

As it stands only Japs know how to make quality AAA material.

That's ...actually a good idea. Love it. Get on it, Hardsuit Labs.

 

[TrueNeutralPaladin]

are there any special bonuses in p&p if you drink menstrual blood?

You get cramps for 1d10 hours.

-Inspect tits action
-Using my fangs
Phew, phew, pu! All plastic and no sweet milky titty blood!

Any further decline from tits down, might be welcomed by unwanted target's incline

Is sheez wearing her unlucky victims' balls around her neck? Or... Yeah, let's origin of those pearls remain a mystery...

 

[Jedi Master Radek]

It doesn't sound as bad as I was predicting it to be. I was expecting it to not even have clans. Pessimists always triumph at the end, it seems.

 

[Lacrymas]

Well, it kinda doesn't. You can align yourself with a clan as far as I can gather, but that doesn't mean you are that clan. You can learn their disciplines because you are a thin-blood, though, just like I said it's going to happen.

Things are getting worse by the hour

“It was very of its time,” Ellison said of the first game. “It approached certain topics differently. How we look at stuff has matured since then.”
“It’s fifteen years later and things have changed,” Mitsoda said. “We have to be very sensitive about how we handle things like mental illness and that was a concern for us and for Paradox, in how we can make a mature story but if we do anything, we do our homework and make sure that we are punching up and not punching down.”
“We talk about these issues constantly,” Ellison added. “Because we care about including people, we want them to feel powerful and sexy, and we don’t want them to feel like it’s not for them.”

 

[Vincente]

Spoiler

Looks like Tremere.

 

[Trans-Financial-Man]

I loved the LARPing portion of the stream, where the vampires are trying to use social media to reprogram emotions so they can be more informed on their feedings. Has really deep psychological undertones that is going to be huge for the immersion factor. And Hardsuit Labs seems like really passionate and very professional devs and a team that can knock this out of the park. Brian definitely wouldn't sign on to such a daunting project if he didn't feel they could do it and do it very well, so that's exciting on its own for the game. Going to be great.

I liked the LARP portion too. But that's my cringy Mind's Eye LARP days coming out. I want to believe in this game but all the interviews talk about being "openly about politics." is worrying. Please don't try to catch me out on that. Every single time a game tries to be "political" nowadays they do it in shallow ways because the "politics" is just buzzwords and shallow hostility towards different people. Also I've had personal dealings with Ms Ellison from her RPS days. I know for a fact she's going to use her influence for things. Trust me I fucking know.

 

[Generic-Giant-Spider]

If you choose to be a transsexual or choose some weird gender pronoun you get automatically labeled a Malkavian.

No respecs.

 

[frajaq]

Can any VtM loremaster tell what kind of vampire that huge bodyguard of LaCroix was in the first game?

 

[Perkel]

Looks like Tremere.

Looks like CGI trailer which tells you nothing of value about end product.

 

[Delterius]

Can any VtM loremaster tell what kind of vampire that huge bodyguard of LaCroix was in the first game?

the wiki always has an opinion to give

Clan
Due to LaCroix telling the player he "picked [the Sheriff] up in Africa", his demonstrated mastery of the unique Chiropteran Marauder form of Vicissitude, and his monstrously inhuman appearance, his clan is often assumed to be Nagloper, a legacy of the Tzimisce from Africa.

 

[Perkel]

It doesn't sound as bad

Apparently game will not feature Malkavians because "doesn't represent mental illness correctly"

"We're making sure that even people having problems with playing games will be able to play this [so we will dumb it down appropriately] Accessibility is our priority".

WTF?

Bull and fucking shit. Whenever a Dev says this, they never mean actual accessibility. I don't mean dumbing things down for idiots. Real accessibility like filters for dyslexic people or even some kind of text to speech diction for in game text would be great. But you never see that. Nor do you see some kind of toggle for people with epilepsy to toggle off effects that trigger it. Nah just dumb down the game so soy slurpers and their big black bulls can play the game.

It's not stated. A likely candidate is Nagloper. https://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Nagloper
