Were there any trannies in Bloodlines? That would probably make it accurate to their actual representation I think.

It probably can have all those things that were in Bloodlines 1, but now there's only one acceptable way of handling them if you want to stay on the good side of the marxist hivemind. All the downtrodden, streetwalkers, POC's, mentally ill, the hideously ugly and sexually alternative must seem sympathetic and can't be made fun of anymore. Only "the oppressors", those who's reference group allegedly holds the power, can be vilified freely. The lunatics are running this asylum now.

If there's one thing that really comes through in all these interviews the developers are giving, its that they don't understand what made the first game work at all. At all. This is going to suck, storywise. I'm sure they'll probably make the combat better, but its probably not going to be worth any replays.
Also, I don't understand why the lead on Requiem is on this. Requiem is a different beast. It has a very different character than Masquerade. It suffers mostly the same problems all nWoD games do, every non-human suffers from crippling failures that ironically enough make them weaker than humans.

I have performed over three hundred sex changes in my career, and not one of my patients has ever asked for their tackle box back. Come to Tuck's Sex Exchange in the next month, and I'll give you a free estimate. Don't let your piece interfere with your peace of mind.

It is the ever present text-book 'my writing will save the world!!!!' phenomenon that seems to be present in most modern day Western video games.
Ironically, if they written about vampires and did a good job at it, they would improve the world much more than talking about real issues that wont change, no matter how much they cry about it. In reality, most of those people hide their lack of imagination and talent behind "serious" issues, creating imaginative lore and stories is hard, taking ready made modern talking points is much easier.

Plus it makes the game out of date before it even launches. If someone wants to include modern talking points in a game/book/series it means he's shortsighted and is only concerned about current sales and receiving social credit and some leftist award (BAFTA).

Anyway, this will be a disaster since every Seattle writer (especially Mitsoda) will walk on eggshells afraid they might offend someone (and as we all know every leftist is offended by everything that is normal or truthful), trying to cater to everyone's tastes and wishes and satisfying none BTW. You can't create a good story if you're restricted from all sides and have no creative freedom.

Big vampire tiddies is what made Bloodlines the game it is. So long as it’s got some quality milkers, everything will be fine.

It isn't 2004 anymore. Tits are out, asses are in.

You people already forgot the Christina Hendricks tie in? Hello?

Watch as the selfish jerkass wankers claim that that is not natural and try to cancel the character. Conveniently forgetting that people like Hendricks and Parton exist.
