Vampire: The Masquerade - New York by Night

[Storyfag]

Yeah, it's just Ep.2 had next to no action and the plot barely moved forward. Loads and LOADS of time wasted on the protags going about feeding.

Watching Ep.3 on twitch atm, and it is much better even though there is also a long feeding segment - but it's more interestingly done. And that's despite the guest appearence of

I must further add that the twitch chat turns into a delightful cringefest of "YASSS QUEEN SLAY" whenever Fuego does something remotely resembling cool. Of well, I'm having my own fanboyish gigglesquee moments whenever Isaac is properly Tzimisce (that is: often), so perhaps I should not be so judgemental.

I find it immesurably funny that a bunch of actors are all like "YAHH, STOP THE GENTRIFICATION OF BRONX!"

 

[Sukhāvatī]

Liking the guys' take on the Camarila and Anarchs though; Isaac not giving a shit who's in charge and Rey seeing whether Princes or Barons in charge as two words for the same thing.

Is this Critical Role for people who are too gay for even that?

I like the font running joke.

[Storyfag]

I am well pleased with this episode.

 

[Sukhāvatī]

Yeah, probably because there was less of the gentrification whining and actually getting down to business.

I'm still watching the first one, is it OK to skip episodes? If so, which should I skip?

 

[Storyfag]

Every ep brings something to the table.

 

[Sukhāvatī]

Good episode.

 

[Gregz]

I like some of these new actors, but the production just doesn't have the care and swagger of some of the LA episodes.

Was this the peak?

I thought LA by Night was well worth my time except for Ishī whom I have an intense dislike for. Always listened to it drinking tea in winter when it was dark and cold.

Thanks for the thread, I didn't know about the new series.

I still can't quite place my dislike. Was it the actress, or the character? Young Brujah are textbook annoying, so I am willing to cut Ishī some slack.

New season, new characters. Cammy side this time.

Cynthia Marie and Noura return!

Cynthia Marie and Noura return!

And Xander. All in style. Very much enjoying the Camarilla side of things.

I've watched the first episode of season two of NY and it's really good! There's a lot of high quality Roleplaying podcasts and shows to pick from but this is one of the most mature and serious. Most are played for humor, or unbearably drawn out.

I didn't see season 1 because I washed out by season 3 of LA by night. I kinda lost track due to taking a break. Maybe I'll go back sometime.

Anyway, I recommend this show.

Messaire Carl is a master of the GM craft.

So there's no Humanity anymore, just Convictions?

It's still there, the starting default being 7.
