World of Darkness Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 - VTMB sequel from The Chinese Room - coming early 2025

[Skinwalker]

extremely nihilistic, violent, filled with horrible people, protagonists do terrible things all the time, close-ups of gore and people's anuses, etc. etc.

Sounds like Bloodlines (2004).

Show me one anus in VTM: Bloodlines.

The best of intentions won't save you if you're incompetent.

Probably some in Tessera's true patch.

They didn't go full Stones of Arnhem, but here's a creature with a giant vagina carved in its stomach.

They're not really in the best spot, but ultimately Paradox and Sumo Digital/Pinchbeck are the ones to blame.

It will be an interesting contest between DOA Veilguard and this.

I'm going to be charitable and say that VtMB2 looks better so far.

Purpleguard's cringe is in a whole 'nother league.

Yeah, I'll be mildly optimistic even with the (likely) reduced RPG mechanics.

BG3 is more an outlier in regards to big game publishers developing hardcore CRPGs unfortunately. I'd love to be proved wrong though!

I've been contemplating that recently. It's not just Bloodlines, a lot of people have difficulty portraying characters that act in competent leadership positions. Everyone knows how a bad boss acts, but very few people seem to know how to portray a good boss (good enough to retain power)

If Ventrue are Embraced for leadership, the most important trait should be their ability to understand what their subjects want, their strengths and their weaknesses. Ventrue, more so than Toreador, should be the most empathetic clan. Where Toreador are sensual, Ventrue should be as close to you as your family doctor. That's what makes a good leader, someone who can convince you that working for them is the best way to get what you *both* want. The current portrayal of Ventrue as extremely aloof and self-important is literally the *worst* traits a leader would have, which means none of them would actually be leaders.

There's actually two anuses, or one anus and a cunt.

Look at Trump and Musk then, I think the portrayal of LaCroix is spot on.

 

[The President]

As much of a dick as Trump is, I do think he “gets” people much better than his democratic counterparts. Musk isn’t a political leader, just our generations great genius for better or for worse.

I also agree the Ventrue should be portrayed different. With Presence and Fortitude they should be coming off like Charles Dance’s Tywin Lannister rather than Lacroix.

Demon... whore!

Since you all niggers start posting pictures I'll stop you right here to say that Pisha is objectively the best VtMB waifu, and if you disagree, kill yourself.

Cannibalistic dyke is the best waifu? I wouldn't even rape her.

Though she gives some nice occult items.

 

[Old Hans]

imagine playing a game where you take on the role of a character named FYRE. it doesnt get any gayer than that

 

[Fargus]

Not just Fyre but Phyre. Phaggot ass vamphyre.

 

[Fedora Master]

Phyre, as in Fire, as in the one thing that all vampires hate

205 pages for a epic fail game. This game is a failure from the get go.

Everybody involved must be shitting their pants after seeing what happened to the last few DEI games LOL

 

[Konjad]

Please let this shit get cancelled.

No. I want it to come out and burn like Veilguard for everyone to see so there is no doubt.
