It's better than anything BioWare has done.
Redemption combat is bad, but personally I found it slightly less bad than bloodlines, probably due to the variety of weapons, abilities and party, even though it lacks the fun stealthy elements and is more clicky/clusterfucky.

Last pc rpg that was worth playing.

What does Knights of the Chalice have to do with Vampire?
Redemption. Played it a few weeks ago. Slogging through a hundred Cappodicians in the monastery then a hundred Noseferatu in the sewers then making my way through a hundred Tremere was boring and nonsensical. Felt like there was a well-done story underneath somewhere but it's all drowned out by shitty real time combat (Bloodline's fps style works better than this over-the-shoulder monstrosity).
Might have been a good game if it weren't for the Diablo-itis of the time.

I thought you were a BG2 fan.
The Story (and villain) of BG2 is the best thing BioWare has ever done. Period. I should have more correctly stated current BioWare story telling (Dragon turd).

Enjoyed it, especially the "serial killer" photographer in first part, and generally the first area. Started to get redundant in a few zones, mostly compelling, give it 95% on my review.
Also, HL2 engine stinks for RPGs. Areas are too teensy-weensy with loading screens!

DOWN with loading screens in ALL games!
I'd rather have the super-primitive BaK graphics with no loading screens than have advanced graphics with a loading screen for each room.
Seriously though, Crysis produces huge maps with next to zero loading times in one single go, and that too while keeping indoor and outdoor areas in one single seamless flow. If a far more advanced graphical technology can be optimized to handle that, why not the HL2 engine? No...friggin'...excuse.

Would have KILLED to have an open-world in the Crysis engine.
Still wondering why they didn't license it for Skyrim, or the next Elder Scrolls/Fallout series of games???

I guess reason is that crysis engine is mainly for pc.Plus bethesda has its own engine and it sells well enough to not warrant a change
