Vampyr - vampire action-RPG from Life Is Strange devs

[toro]

Be too nice (avoid killing people) and the game will fuck you up somehow.

I didn't do shit and my district took like a big health loss.

Are we playing the same game? Plague + vampires everywhere and you want your district to be a highschool reunion party?

Are you able to read?

So, here is the question that must be asked. Does Vampyr suck?

Yes now why the fuck are you too dumb to understand the degrading of district in such conditions may be happening regardless if you curing fatigue of some irrelevant pc? This is most likely part of the mechanic not a bug.

I,e there is natural -10 degradation that happens every day and you do a +3 or something. It still ends up net -7. Fuck this isn't complicated at all.

 

[SkiNNyBane]

fantadomat I am still waiting for you to explain yourself rather then emote spam. It's almost like you realized your wrong.

 

[Barbarian]

Yes, it is a good game. Not a perfect game and has its share of flaws, but throughly enjoyable and well made. Nevermind the edgy crowd. Compared to pillars of faggotry and the likes it is the only decent game released in months.

 

[Lacrymas]

Are there a lot of bugs or is it relatively stable?

 

[Zombra]

Most fights don't give XP

The only thing I really dislike for now is inability to toggle walking.

Oh my god. Is this one of these console games where you have to sprint everywhere you go? Hmm, I think I will casually cross the room to speak to that shopkeeper. SPRINT!!!!!!!!!!GOGOGO

I haven't played the game, but it sounds like you should think about doing some shit to save people.

 

[SkiNNyBane]

I had zero bugs that I am aware of so far (lost track of time I dunno 5 hours in?)

 

[SkiNNyBane]

No you sprint by holding shift I am not sure what the complaining is about. Yes there is snail pace walking in the game as well for cut-scenes but I don't see how it would be useful as a feature.

 

[Projas]

Oh wow, I always thought the people who actually used the walking toggle were a myth.

 

[Urthor]

the ctrl button is actually for sneaking up on enemies to stun them fun fact

 

[SkiNNyBane]

The only thing to watch out for is it seems like you actually have to read notes from the inventory, otherwise the clues may not trigger.

 

[Zombra]

Oh wow, I always thought the people who actually used the walking toggle were a myth.

Nope, I generally walk in games unless traveling from place to place. Like inside a shop or investigating a crime scene, SPRINTING EVERYWHERE RUN HURRY always feels ridiculous. Plus I just overshoot targets if I run everywhere. Sprinting in a circle around an object on the ground trying to target it is the stupidest shit in gaming.

Also, I slow walked up the 7000 steps in Skyrim because fuck you, that's why.

Hahahaha this game is such an SJW wet fantasy. The protagonist excused it self 5 or 6 times by now,saying that he is not a bigot with all the options being SJW agreement. You can't say anything bat to a woman,nigger or a faggot,but when he see a pries....lol he begun spamming monologues about how evil and insane he is . Good thing that you can go on a killing spree....eventually.

You do realize what your saying is tinfoil level conspiracy delusions right? You think some no name company or devs think about pushing sjw shit? I thought people like you were limited to youtube commentators. And I would just happily ignore your bullshit if you didn't force it down our throat at any chance you get. Holy shit get over it. Its not that serious.

One day you will meet a woman or a black person, and realize they aren't all pink haired witches that youtube have you believe.

It sounds a lot more like you have fantasies of bashing sjws, then the game has any pretense to push sjw agenda. Unless of course you think women having right to vote or be doctors as "sjw", and not basic human right.

I wouldn't play it yet unless your pc is above the recommended specs AND you have a controller and don't mind using it. Although to be fair I haven't encountered anything game-breaking in 4 hours or so.

Ed- Good lord these loading times are atrocious. Exiting/entering a building you shouldn't have is a bigger punishment than you get for dying in most games. On a SSD disk, too.

You hold Shift to sprint and hold Ctrl to walk. You can remap keys but there is no toggle option for either.

Aside from that, I have no major issues with the game. I liked Edgar Swansea and the boat ride, I liked Thomas Elwood, I liked Thelma Howcroft, I liked their... friendship. Still barely scratched the surface though.

Hahahaha this game is such an SJW wet fantasy.

The protagonist is a while male heterossexual. I have not encountered any form of sodomy so far. Only negro npc I have met is a thief, smuggler and crook whom everybody dislikes(well except for the nurse he bangs, and who is called explicitly "a whore" by other npcs). The "strong empowered wymin" trope is kept in check by the realities of the time period(most female npcs are nurses, maids, housewives and ladies). The vampire hunters are exclusively male, as they should be.

So yeah, get over yourself with bashing the game for no reason. If you hate it so much why do you even keep playing it?

Compared with Pillars of "every npc is gay and romanceable" Eternity and other games coming out this *current year* this game is quite alright in the sjw department.

 

[Life of the Party]

Everything is SJW.

 

[Lacrymas]

Extremely linear opening, it almost puts me off, also very predictable, I knew the woman he is going to bite was somehow related to him or a lover. Immediately thought it would've been way cooler if the protagonist was a woman, a proper and prim London lady who happens to be a vicious beast when no-one is looking. Music is interesting, the cellist is pretty good, crystal clear intonation. The beginning narration was kinda cringe-y. The performance is surprisingly good, I have everything on the highest and it isn't moving a frame, at least not noticeably.

No, thanks. First, we're not yet in desperade need for shtrong womyn protagonist and second but most important - Dontnod can't write good female characters, yet alone protagonistst. Remember Me and Life is Tumblr are shining examples.

I think the first area is basically meant as a tutorial.

 

[Life of the Party]

I think the boat ride is when the game really starts.

 

[SkiNNyBane]

toro your welcome to defend your dumb comment instead of spamming "retarded". 100% you have lots to say on the topic, and there is good reason you haven't made a response, instead resorting to emotes. Reminds me of fantadomat. Are you two related by any chance?

 

[toro]

The SJW bullshit is creeping again and again but not enough to go into full retard mode. To be honest it looks like the work of some creatively bankrupted writers: there are issues in the quest design area when 5 out of 10 stories have some SJW bullshit in the background. Not offensive or in your face but they are there. This is one major complain but it is survivable.

So, don't be surprised if you encounter SJW lectures in disguise like this:

After all the game is done by "Life is Strange" developers.
