all those comfy late night VtMB threads on Yea Forums since like 2010 were always amazing but we were in agreement that we won't ever see a sequel
shit, I guess we were all wrong

Pre ordered this shit so hard
first for disappointment
But why?
>preordering a year before launch and before they've even shown off any gameplay
How did your first encounter with this fella go? I just crouched by a tree and he never found me.
So will our Thinblood eat some clan member? I can't see any other way he could "join" a clan.
Is it true that Mitsoda is in an open marriage? His wife calls him a spouse which is really weird.
>OG writers
>Rik Schaffer back on soundtrack
>Chivalry combat
It's going to be kino and there's nothing you can do about it
Guns are temporary pickups, will be discarded after the fight
> Guns exist and are treated as temporary opportunities, you pick em up, use it, then discard it and move on.
Setting will be adapted to modern standards
>“It was very of its time,” Ellison said of the first game. “It approached certain topics differently. How we look at stuff has matured since then.”
>“It’s fifteen years later and things have changed,” Mitsoda said. “We have to be very sensitive about how we handle things like mental illness and that was a concern for us and for Paradox, in how we can make a mature story but if we do anything, we do our homework and make sure that we are punching up and not punching down.”
>“We talk about these issues constantly,” Ellison added. “Because we care about including people, we want them to feel powerful and sexy, and we don’t want them to feel like it’s not for them.”
Gameplay will be first person perspective because its immersive experience twitter.com
...
Mitsoda's a cuckold.
If you diablerie another clan member while being a thin blood, do you become that clan with all perks and negatives then? Also Why would a clan consent into getting one of their own eaten?
>Consent
Maybe they're a masquerade breaker?
>chivalry combat
Where did you hear this? Genuinly curious.
>mfw I'm gonna gonna play a twink Tremere and get a 6'4 Gangrel gf
>he
I'm glad they're taking a stand against gun ownership
>Guns exist and are treated as temporary opportunities, you pick em up, use it, then discard it and move on.
What is this shit, Hotline: Masquerade?
Post art right now
Nothing is more important than consent in VtmB2
Daily reminder that this will be the next tranny era leftist political propaganda game
>It’s not just politics where Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 takes a progressive approach. The character creator goes way beyond basic male and female models. Body type, gender pronouns, employment history and fashion can all be toyed with for a very modular build
Of?
>comfy thread
HOL UP
I don't remember much about the story at all. Just that spooky ship with the sarcophagus, mansion, some kinda bossfight in some Chinese theatre and the ending.
«I hate choices!»
That’s literally you.
>Not wanting to make a 6'5, 300 lbs Malkavian man in a dress with female pronouns
Only the best official artwork for you my friend
These are screenshots from the writer's previous game, a text adventure classic. Anyone who has hopes for this shit needs their brain checked.
Why do Tremere do hardcore selective siring
Why is everyone saying that you being a thin blood and later joining a clan is out of character and not fitting with the source material? First of all, many Catiff get adopted into clans, among their ranks thin bloods as well. Hell thin bloods were even sought out for a point because of their ability to somehow craft disciplines on the fly. And I myself did something like this is a massive IRC game back in the day. I was Primogen of Clan Brujah, and I made an open invitation to all Panders and Thin Bloods to come join our family and be honorary Brujah and fall under our protection. It worked, and our numbers swelled to more than the next top 3 clans combined.
Can't wait until they add the option to identify as pedosexual. More options are great, right?
Good idea user, once Epic buys exclusivity they will hopeful still honer your preorder.
Imagine hating video games so much you spend hours and days just shitting on it and literally nothing else. No discussion, just plain derailment and spam.
CUTE
VAMPIRES
>melee in first person
i get a feeling that its really gonna suck
Yes? Youre a vampire, being sick and twisted is the best part
Imagine being terrified of having to include nazis in your deviant and gory vampire play pretend
Or a tranny Nagaraja, so me and my waifu pisha can go eat babies.
Finally a VtM sequel!
>>Guns exist and are treated as temporary opportunities, you pick em up, use it, then discard it and move on.
Fuck that and fuck this game.
Reminder that these people were fired by Paradox.
Because most people who played bloodlines never touched the books, just the wikia, we want a sequel following Bloodlines setting.
>Game will have a political stance
I am the only one that understood this game will get politics involves but it will be use majorly for the outcome of your choices than a agenda pushing product? A game with those titties cant be SJW
So is that Werewolf the Apocalypse game just vapor now or what?
>Guns exist and are treated as temporary opportunities, you pick em up, use it, then discard it and move on.
Can I get a source on this? Sounds weird but I'm sure there's a reason for it
>You become a vampire after a one night stand. The bitch that turns you into one did so illegally so she's executed
>The Prince aka the Boss of LA doesn't like you so he uses you as an errand boy
>Everyone's spooked because the Gehenna, aka the Judgment Day is coming
>Prince sends you to a ship to get a Sarcophagus because there's something or someone powerful inside
>*gets stolen*
>Spent all game trying to get it and later on its key back
>Along the way meet Anarchs, xing xong vampires, vampire hunters... etc.
>At the end it turns out a boomer pirate vampire wanted to fuck over LA's higher ups so he stole the Sarcophagus first and stuck it full of C4 so they'd all kill each other wanting it then whoever opened it BOOM!
Also OG vampire Caine is a taxi driver
lol, just LOL
I can't read more thanone line of this new-left madness.
You need to be really mentally ill to engage in any form of this, being videogames, literature or politics.
Why the fuck do so many faggots sperg about this client exclusivity bullshit?
Just imagine finally retreating to your bedroom after a honest day's work and she's there waiting for you dressed in the finest black leather outfit. She slowly releases the pressure buckles keeping the dress strapped to her and they pop off like a lugs and bolts shooting of a submarine's pressurized walls. After half an hour she's finally complete naked, her baroque pale form perpetually jiggling, even when she's standing perfectly still. And before you know it you spring out of your rocking chair and into her flesh, partially absorbed by it, her skin trying to consume you whole. And for you want that moment to last for eternity as you slowly build up a humping motion penetrating some part of her as she looks down at you with a perfectly serene and happy expression, waiting patiently for you to exhaust yourself so she can tuck you in and kiss you goodnight.
So, Condemned?
They really should get more into it. There's such rich lore and history in the setting, a lot of it actually crafted by the players, especially back in the 2E days. I hope this does well, as I'd like to see more games set in the World of Darkness. Imagine a Hunter Game in the vein of something like The Division.
>"Individuals of strong will or aggressive personalities are normally sought, provided they have a clear head and can learn to be a part of the greater whole that is the clan. Candidates were scholars in life, and many dabbled in the occult to one extent or another, though that is not a prerequisite. Of course, there are "rogue" Embraces for the usual reasons – love, political gain, or accident. Regents often have these mistakes killed immediately, with suitable punishment levied against the sire, but there are always exceptions."
and every choice that make that goes against their ideals will make you get a bad end or make you inhuman
>I can't read more than one line
We know user, we know.
t. never been in a FFXV thread
>Speculation
I preffer to wait.
I just googled spouse on google image search... guess what I got.
>cab driver
>Caine
He was a Malk Methuselah. The real Caine was in the Middle East at the time of Bloodlines. White Wolf already clarified this.
What did I just read?
Watch Angel obviously
youtube.com
wasn't planning on buying it but after I saw the rage of all the extremist nazi /pol/kiddies I pre ordered the 90 euro edition
feels good man
do you now?
Easy (you)s. The only thing user loves anymore.
WILL THERE BE A CONSOLE COMMAND TO MAKE BREASTS BIGGER LIKE THE FIRST GAME
It will probably just be really painfully generic with a few retarded SJW things thrown in that will be cherry-picked to hell and back and shitposted about for months by people who never even played it. Such is life.
Mercurio coming back would be fucking great
I remember when Human Revolution was first announced everyone was acting like they were in these threads
Then when the game came out people loved it
and now the consensus is "It's a good game, but not as good as the original".
Me too, user. Fuck em. I've waited too god damn long for this to let nu-Yea Forums spoil this more me.
You're actually correct because I didn't want to be spoiled until I finished it, and by then autists moved on to the next upcoming game to diahreea all over
I want to hate fuck her
I do not have hope this will come close to recapturing being an edgy teen in the early 00s because that's impossible and the devs have been brainwashed into believing the sequel should be "more mature". However, I am excited for the Mod support so someday someone can make it good with real tools and not the crazy hacked together shit VTMB has.
Fuck that. The devs wanted him to be Caine, his voice samples in the game's folder say he's Caine, and iirc it was a book that came out after the game that said the real Caine was chilling in a cave somewhere
What you are asking is impossible in the current market.
youtu.be
I love video games so much, but i hate everything surrounding announcement of vtmb2 and want to kill myself
buy it for me fgt
I like that thing about guns, because I remember Mirror's Edge and Condemned, though it feels odd in an open world game.
> Imagine a Hunter Game in the vein of something like The Division.
Why would you want garbage?
This. Say like POE, boringly bland and tame. These leftards cant write for shit without the constant filter, and mitsoda has to convince hes more than a has been.
>I'm a real fan!
>Only played VtMB
Ha ha! Good one, friend! Now which way to the Degrees of Lewdity thread?
>No tumblr haircut

>No political bullshit in her description
>Unironical cute
Girls writting videogames is hardly a new thing, user. It is not like they have freedom to write whatever fanfiction they want
Bull fucking shit, they still have threads shitting on XV every single fucking day, every single goddamn day since 2 fucking years before it even came out. Don't even try to pretend otherwise.
see
I swore I'd never pre-order again after Spore but I'm tempted lads.
I prescribe you a 12 month long break from Yea Forums. It'll do you good.
time to update this list
Yes, I know what his voice samples are recorded under. And as soon as White Wolf found out what Troika did they pulled out the retcon pen with max Celerity-like speed. They have final say. Hell, to have Caine show up in your games back in the day you actually needed permission from White Wolf, and 99 times out of 100 he was only being used for a "Rocks Fall, Everyone Dies" scenario because the GM let his game get out of hand.
>Also Why would a clan consent into getting one of their own eaten?
I'm guessing the explanation will be "if he/she was so shit, they were diablerized by a fucking thinblood, they didn't deserve to live in the first place"
Except HR had the "same" gameplay, Bloodlines 2 is straying away from Bloodlines, no inventory for weapons, we don't know how abilities or stats will work, FPP only, its weird.
They are featuring white males and a big titties girl on the trailer. She doesn't have the freedom to make this a fanfiction tranny love story.
Doesn't matter what some faggot publishers say Caine was doing.
If a GM says Caine is in London, that's where he is.
If the game developers say he's in LA, that's where he is.
We have so little information about the game but I've been waiting 10 years for another Bloodlines so I'm almost tempted to pre-order.
it was a decent game but its horseshit compared to the original
>First person only
Haha
Haha...
A-At least they will have cleavage modeled when I look down r-right?
she's senior writer for all side quest enjoy
Autists can hate more than one thing. Just look at "why did I move here" spammer who mods confirmed moved on to DMC. Probably him/same discord group shitting up these threads with political piss and general derailment as well, because FUCK everyone who isn't a depressed pessimistic nihilist such as themselves.
Are we really about to sit here and pretend Bloodlines combat wasn't dog shit?
My first instinct is to feel that but I’m going to wait it out and see
and then their NPC clones were hired by them.
t. never played table top, MET, or dealt with old White Wolf. I love how these threads are always populated with people that claim to be World of Darkness experts, but the qualification here is "I played Bloodlines AND Redemption." You're an idiot. Fuck off.
it worked on every female npc in the original so even if it was first person only you can still see a benefit
It was a different time. Never to come back. Ground 0 referencing counter strike among other things.
It's literally 1 year away. How fucking stupid are you with your money that you'd part with it on a game which was published by Paradox and zero gameplay shown? Do you hate money? Do you not receive any interest at all?
STOP BEING FUCKING IDIOTS WITH YOUR MONEY.
Not even worth the (you). Gonna keep it to myself.
This, throw your dollars at corporations, that will show dem nazis!
If it's got Avellone and Mitsoda I have hope that it will be good.
She still have a boss that will tell her to piss off if she goes too far. Look at the trailer to get a better idea of what they are planning to release
>Male MC
>Male bro
>First girl that appears is a fapbait
dont tell me what to do
Post the stronk independent lady Tremere who don’t need no patriarchal pyramid now
As I said, fuck them, Caine being the guy that watches over you all those nights is kino.
Which leads me to my next question: seeing how this game is a direct sequel and takes place in the same universe 15 years later, is the Gehenna book non canon now? Because in all its scenarios the world kind of fucking ended shortly after Bloodlines, am I wrong?
I've got a lot of disposable income and still live with my parents.
I find it really gay that you play as a thin blood. The V5 take on thin bloods is bullshit as a whole.
I cant wait for more WOKE shit to be revealed for the people who still have hopes for this game
I never thought it would be this fun to crush spirit of delusional fools
Was functional, melee was fun in later levels, it can easily be improved, removing it just displays a change in tone and focus.
That’s probably just a thing of Source engine. Do we know which engine they are using for this gane yet?
Story, sure. Everything else, wrong.
And that's because you're overexposed to believable conspiracies, just like no TES game will recapture the wonders of morrowind because the novelty of a free form sandbox rpg is gone, while those who started with oblivion/Skyrim loves said games due the same feeling you had with morrowind.
unreal I think
HOL UP
*smacks fangs*
Ouch.
Something trannies, emasculated men and lgbt.
Never bothered me it was actually Caine. But I did also felt it was kinda meh, a figure like that is too much.
At the very least a second generation. A guy like Saulot.
>tfw no big tiddy goth gf
GOOD GOY
>>Player is a thin-blood at first,
So I can just walk around during daylight?
Unreal 4
Fuck half life 2 and fuck activision. I wish i had my add-on for vtmb.
That part of the game likely won't last beyond the tutorial stage.
I played morrowind after skyrim and oblivion and really enjoyed the world design, if it were made today I'd consider it the best by far (as far as the world goes)
>you’re starting as a ‘thin blood’
>You grow into it and consciously choose your clan after you’ve explored them.
How do you figure this'll go?
Also, how in the hell do they intend to be more respectful toward mental illness and still have Malks in? Even without fishmalks, their whole existence hinges on not understanding actual mental problems.
It’d be neat to see a Promethean game. Fat chance, I know but still
>mfw I pick Gangrel and roll into a Ventrue hideout in max level Warform.
I'll pirate it. If it's legitimately phenomenal though, fuck it, I'll buy.
1. I make good money.
2. I love the World of Darkness and have been supporting/playing for years. You think $90 is bad? Try keeping up with all the sourcebooks in the 90s.
3. How sad must one's existence be where they can't get enjoyment out of anything anymore other than complaining?
>melee was fun in later levels
Melee wasn't even an option in late levels, did we play the same game?
It turns into ashooter after a certain point.
Of course I hate money, money is why we have bills, wars, immigration and all that shit. Do away with this ancient concept. Back then they also ate their own feces. You think they would be able to make a great system for thousands of years later?
No.
While the game's in FPP, certain actions like cover or climbing will be shown in third person ala modern Deus Ex. Why would they add character customization with clothes and such if you couldn't see your MC?
Can I play a Nosferatu? I'll be disappointed if I'm forced to play söi clans like Ventrue, Toreador or Brujah.
wtf are you talking about
i tremere punch'd my way through the whole game
>Guns are temporary pickups
Wait, so does this means that I won't be able to spec my character for guns like in the PNP and the original game? Will there even be different builds and shit?
please tell me more about myself
Is that shadman
Warform Gangrel
HAS ANY GAMEPLAY BEEN SHOWN YET
I'd say cut down on silly shit like stop sign debates, but then on the other hand that's a pre-order weapon now, clearly referencing it
What I don't understand is if they are already going thourhg the trouble of creating a complex 3D model and animations, why not allow a 3rd person toogle? Why?
Probably not till E3.
>
Potency and Protean were more effective than guns during most stages. I think only the Sheriff forced you to use ranged weapons.
Did you know, you are behind 99% of all dick sucking currently occurring on the entire planet this very moment?
Ho boy. Here's a quick rundown. Gehenna happened and old WoD ended in 2004. New WoD was a complete (and shitty) overhaul of the clans, and many clans and disciplines went or were drastically changed and it took place post-gehenna. When they saw this shit wasn't selling, they retconned Gehenna to never have happened and went back to old WoD. The current iteration of VtM is pozzed trash with shit like thin-bloods having access to blood magic and being special snowflakes in general.
Because then they would have to design two different games. Don't be fucking retarded.
I live comfortably and have no need to save for retirement because I'll be dead before I'm old enough to retire
This. What the FUCK are you negros on about? The melee was garbage. Imagine actually trying to do the Tsimcze level with that shit.
I’m disappointed about guns going though. They were overpowered but I hope it feels more like John Wick and we can shoot shit up and lunge at another dude and rinse and repeat.
Do you honestly think these threads wouldn't be full of gameplay screencap for every single frame so anons can pour over them to find shit to complain about?
The first gameplay trailer will make the announcement shitposting look like a gentleman's club
You can easily kill him by getting him trapped into the door which I always do lmfao.
>Already epic exclusive
>everybody missing the point the original game was good by accident and had very little effort actually put in
this is going to be shit and everybody here who is older than 25 knows it
>comfy
Nope. Say goodbye to comfy VTMB threads for at least a year. /pol/ can't deal with people being genuinely hyped for a game.
>Imagine actually trying to do the Tsimcze level with that shit.
So you don't know.
That doesn't make sense, a small change in perspective doesn't completely change the game, in Deus Ex you could already use 3rd person to peek around cornes, so not even that is a factor.
are they going old world, nu world, or a nu nu world?
You can easily pass game only melee playing ventrue. Gangrel makes firearms useless. Malkavian and nosferatu stealth melee is just broken op.
It's on Steam and GOG.
Has nothing to do with /pol/ you fucking braindead moron. We've listed complaints regarding Paradox over and over and yet you still keep spouting muhhh pol boogeyman. Grow a brain.
the other 1% must be you
nu world
Fuck the autists, day one buy for me.
>fucking /pol/
kill yourself.
Oh no there's a tranny and some black people in this game.
>Start as a disgusting Thinblood
>Either get powers by being a huge Mary Sue or by commiting one of the worst crimes you could ever do
Actually, it's your dad
>It's on Steam
Yes like just like metro
they'll use steam to advertise.
This is like the third time a game pulls this
you fucking retard
That’s one clan dumbass. Didn’t make combat enjoyable either, just tolerable at best
you could use the spotlights to force him to land
Diablerie isn't a crime. Even the Camarilla practice it in secret.
>proceed to post /pol/ edit wojak
Literally not an ounce of self awareness
Man, I see the theories about diablerie justifying the clan-joining and all that and I can't help but wonder.
It seems so much more likely the thinblood thing is just an excuse to have the PC be a special snowflake that learns a Discipline combo they shouldn't be able to, and the clan thing to be a glorified faction system with some justification as to why they'd even accept a mongrel into their ranks.
The real question then is: Do you think they'll remember thinbloods aren't supposed to be able to reach max rank in a Discipline?
>Paradox
>limiting their DLC jewery to the five adults that actually use EPIC
The gun thing is very suspicious, makes me feel like the game will be a very on rails experience.
>what does a refund mean
>in Deus Ex you could already use 3rd person to peek around cornes
But you couldn't peak in first person right?
You don't know shit about game design. Properly designed games, which the original Bloodlines was not, have to design every mechanic from a certain perspective. I fyou could switch to thirst person whenever you wanted, you would have to change the game mechanics accordingly, otherwise the experience will be subpar, which in the original VTMB it certainly was.
why does hating trannies make you '/pol/'?
>Do you think they'll remember thinbloods aren't supposed to be able to reach max rank in a Discipline?
who cares?
You're fucking shit if you can't properly level a character to use melee. Even if you lack Potency or Protean you can still breeze through the game with even 3 or 4 points in melee.
Its a convenient boogeyman.
I mean what's the point of having the PC be a thinblood if they won't suffer the consequences of it.
Looks like somebody didn't get the memo. Thin-bloods are the future, down with gen shaming!
Reminder this game is fucked:
twitter.com
I'm not trying to just blindly shitpost either, I'm trying to warn people now so when the game comes out it's not as painful.
Irrelevant since Tencent is bankrolling developers to do it
That dev from that crowdfunded game that just pulled this shit said that even if every single backer refunded they would still make at least double of what they were originally expecting just from what the Epic Store was paying them
if it isn't a crime then why do they do it in secret?
Huh. I mean on one hand I'm glad they continue in the old universe and all that, but weren't there a lot of indications all around that *something* was about to happen? If Gehenna has been retconned, then was everyone just fucking paranoid for no reason?
I guess I'll see just how bad the new rules/skills and the thin blood ordeal is when I play the game. I remember how the Bloodlines thin bloods at the beach were complete pussies so them being jacks of all trades being able to learn Disciplines and such is weird.
Because fuck the Camarilla that's why.
Thinbloods are worst and harbingers of doom.
>who cares about the lore of the setting that the game is fucking based on?
people that say "vtmb was never political!" actually mean that vtmb never had any of these stupid gendered xe xir xo pronouns
How does that actually prove anything? It's one person being dumb.
no they weren't
these are the people writing this game
Hold on now what is this literally who saying on Twitter? It must be important.
Maybe Gehenna is taking longer than people thought.
The whole mass thin blood problem seems to have only gotten worse after all. Maybe someone is trying to force things into motion.
which character does he represent?
whitewolf.fandom.com
V5 is cancer.
I certainly don't, the lore behind vampire is pretty shitty and forgettable, these games are only good because they're urban fantasy RPGs
Trannies or /pol/?
Even if you have every reason to believe it will be good, there's no reason to pre-order it, not only because there's still a possibility that its development will take a wrong turn and the game will be ruined, but also because... there's just, fucking, no reason to pre-order a video game in the year of our lord MMXIX. Everything is fucking downloaded, so there's no scarcity. You'll be able to get your game on day one even if you don't pay for it until day one.
Fuck this person seems really in pain. Ego is one hell of a drug.
>it's using Mr. Chang's engine
Awesome to the max
Absolutely no one is excited about this at all. It's not the sequel people wanted. It's over-politicized click-bait in video game format.
Besides preorder bonuses but even then those are usually useless cosmetic items that you could just pirate anyway.
>Guns are temporary pickups, will be discarded after the fight
Isn't this basically how it was in Sleeping Dogs? It fucking sucked and I hated it.
These shitposts read just like the thread on 8/v/
>Reminder this game is fucked:
>*screenshot of random tranny from Twitter*
I don't see how that's any dumber than some of the other disciplines VtM had over the years
It's a dirty game
How's the view from so far up your ass?
>Absolutely no one is excited about this at all.
>People in this very thread being excited about it
wow
why would I waste points in melee when I put it guns, you maximum retard? The only time I seriously used melee was during the painting fight and that was dogshit.
I heard it was the Dying Light engine.
What if there is no RPG, just a pre determined amount of options to choose, no stats to take care, no builds, combat is just a puzzle, Disciplines are obtained by eating other vampires, clothes don't stats, how would you feel ?
Then don't complain about the melee combat you faggot.
yes
Yeah, you lost the gun as soon as you had no more ammo. It really sucked and made very little sense because you were a fucking undercover cop in the triads.
There was a line along the lines of "You surely noticed how rare guns are in Hong Kong." but that's a lot of bullshit.
That would suck, but wouldn't be too far off the first game honestly, the RPG systems might as well have not been there they were so light and inconsequential
>I'm too stupid to explore the options I have and I'm too lazy to adapt new situations
Doesn't sound like an RPG to me. I bet this is going to be a pure action game.
Guns in VtM are pretty fucking balanced considering they use different stats than melee and require different soaks. I dun really get why you would make guns so strong you need to make them that limited.
Not really, since every encounter was basically a kung fu melee fest and guns just made it easier to get through.
It sounds like hand-to-hand melee is the main focus of this game's combat with using your powers on top of that to compliment, weapons will probably just serve to make encounters easier or faster to get through. It seems like devs really want players to focus on their vampire powers and primal strength/abilities.
user obviously meant that absolutely no one with a brain is genuinely excited about this. Sure there are some retards that can't see the signs, and there are some dickheads that don't really like the original but pretend to be hyped and post pre-order pics all just to make the genuine fans more angry and more sad.
I’m complaining because it’s fucking bad, and I hope they improve it this time around.
It's not like we are talking about including isometric point and click perpective in the game, over the shoulder 3rd person view isn't that different from FPV for moving around the game's world, it just allows the player to see the character he created and customized, this isn't a hardcore shooter where it would give an unfair advantage to the player and ruin the game.
>But you couldn't peak in first person right?
How's that relevant? If the game only had FP then you could say that allowing 3rd person would ruin the stealth, but the stealth is already "ruined" because you can peek corners in 3rd person at anytime.
>"You surely noticed how rare guns are in Hong Kong."
It makes even less sense in that context.
>find gun
>wow so rare
>throw it away
Also,
>find gun
>throw it away
>find gun
>throw it away
>find gun
>"rare"
Add that there will propably be some sort of housing or your own place that you can customize, since one of the bundles contains items for that.
Original game is dogshit and you know it, gameplay and the combat is incredibly off-putting. You only hold it in such high regards because vamp tits.
she is a journalist a Kotaku
she is also one of those people that will insta block you for saying you liked DMC5 more then DmC, and if you like Steam more then Epic Store
this should tell you a lot about her opinion on things
Just having some woke bullshit in it isn't enough to deter me. If it actually turns out to be legitimately shit I won't buy it.
Or intersectional genderqueer tranny cultural Marxism.
outside of those two first screenshots which are just cherry picked bad jokes the game isn't not political at all
at least as far as human politics goes
vampire politics sure
Actually it was the writing and quest design but okay
>1st encounter
>Buffed myself and tried to melee him
>2nd try
>Shot him
>3rd try
>Ran Inside and found a door too small for him
>He broke through
Feel very conflicted but I'm hoping all the twitter shitting is just them trying to win points with their group
Plz dont kill vampire just to make a political point you fucking turbo dyke purple haired cunt plz
>and you know it

>Its not people don't want politics in games, its that people don't want one sided strawmen. Bioshock was highly political but it didn't say capitalism bad socialism saves. It showed capitalism being used by one man for power. It also showed Fontaine doing the same with socialism.
>It was about one sided politics and lacking balance. Ryan would ignore any faults in his own, which lead to people seeking out politics he wanted to escape from but in embracing promises of the 'workers revolution' the people were blinded to how its was used to manipulate them.
>Now imagine if an ultra nationalist or ultra socialist antifa had tried writing the story. Political writing can be great but im not excusing propaganda because someone decided if you complain about it being one sided strawman writing, it means you 'don't want politics in games'
>now the shills are shitting on the original game
it has, just not to the public
Was there anything really offensive about the first game?
It doesn't really work though. You need to be tolerant of modern-day Nazis, because oppressing them *gives* them power. By letting them march around like idiots and venting their frustrations, they exist as peaceful elements of a society. As long as tolerant laws prevent them from killing jews, anyway.
The moment you start being intolerant of intolerant people, the whole system falls apart, because where do you draw the line? You can't! You can't justify intolerance! You CAN make laws to outlaw things like shotgun weddings or sharia law or mass killing jews, but you can't make laws to make people think a certain way. That NEVER works.
>>You can use telekenesis
H-how much telekinesis?
I TURNED MYSELF INTO A VAMPIRE MORTY!
I'M VAMPIRE RIIICKKKK!!!
There were many unfavorable portrayals of mental illness by today's standards.
Fishmalks are inherently 'offensive' to people who have genuinely scarring mental disabilities. Because being mentally handicapped doesn't make you telepathic or have superpowers, it sucks.
But anyone who's actually offended by a fishmalk needs to acquire some thicker skin. Fucking seriously.
It is a "Masculine power fantasy" according to one of the writers.
The lore is pretty decent, there are some good characters and factions.
Yeah this. But I am also pretty aware we still have tons of years of this political posturing What only saddens me is that videogames unlike other media have the worst fucking writers and sjw footsteps leave a big mark.
As they say. God still writes correctly in wicked lines so I dont care.
But playing something like Mechanicus so well written and then comparing stuff you get a sense of most of the triggering.
I honestly dont fucking care about the genders pronouns if it does not deter my roleplay and I dont care if some code monkey is a fucking lunatic tranny.
What matters is that its entertaining and most woke media is fucking not.
It's literally just one of the vampire paths you take aat the beginning of the game before you choose a clan.
The first tree you can choose is the mist ability, the second tree you can choose is the telekinesis ability, and third tree you can choose is the vampire glide ability. Sounds like you only get one of the three and mainly serve for exploration purposes.
the existence of heterosexual relationships is triggering for these people so I guess plenty
Probably movie jedi push pull.
Will he lend a hand this time too?
I wouldn't mind if they got rid of the fishmalk shit but I do hope they keep enough around to make a Malkavian character interesting.
So we can probably expect it to be a lot less sexy than the first game.
I guess high blood disciplines won't be include in the game.
>t. breeder
Fuck I need to sleep.
>this random tranny with Twitter followers is asking whether the game's good with 'her' kind or not
>gee I fucking wonder what I'll tell her
"Trees" -- it already sounds like shit. I get it's hard to translate VTM's charsheet into a videogame, but it's way more fun than fucking talent trees, which have plagued RPGs since fucking WoW. It's 2019 fellas. Unless you're path of exile or something, I'll take some fucking attributes and skill points. How lazy is this shit. You know they're going to have some weakass clan design too, will they even know how to properly portray celerity 5? Or will they just let us 'sprint faster with a fatigue meter' and that's it.

The literal motivation of almost all meta plot for WoD is that "gehenna is coming" and despite everyone shoving it down your throat that it'll be here next week look at all signs blah blah.
gehenna won't happen.
We can at least expect it to be not as good as the first game. I'm still looking forward to it but no way in hell am I preordering.
Literally every time a new game preview shows these "signs" it turns out to be a couple of lines that /pol/ then cherrypicks and shitposts all over the board. Either that, or they greentext about it, twisting and exaggerating its wokeness. And some times it's just "there's a NIGGER in this game!" tier bullshit.
Sorry if this goes against the comfy theme of the thread but what did White Wolf do to cause an actual international incident with the Chechnya setting?
Also does anyone have links to the big nude mod pack that one VTMB modded held hostage in his sekrit club?
>The original composer is back
Silent hill: homecoming still sucks even though it had Akira.
it's called casualization in order to reach a larger audience
most people don't care for character sheets
probably not, maybe okay at best
Yeah, but Deb of night shit was hilarious. If they keep their hyper-left bs content with Deb of night's tone I'm game.
But will HE be back?
Because it had none of the talent that previous games had. Which isnt the case with VTMB. + the soundtrack was good as always, only SH games that has a bad soundtrack is downpour.
...you do know how the original WoD *ENDS* right? It actually fucking does end.
Technocracy purged gays to kill vampires.
Yeah they did that with Tyranny and POE which were both shit I will give them that
retconned years agp
Homecoming ONLY had Akira though.
At least VTMB2 has the original writer involved.
>look look politics guys! don't you see? politics!! hurrrr
How is this exclusively leftist? No one likes neocons.Also, explain to me why all the people who hate political shit still like this game? Also, STOP SPAMMING EVERY THREAD. This game never catered to you.
Said the gays killed there were vamps and that pissed everyone off
Had to fire people and reprint the edition without the horribly misplaced"woke" shit
I get that. It doesn't change the fact "woo hoo here are three talent trees" does not make this an RPG. I'm pretty worried it's going to be a linear action game with the vague trappings of vampire. Which would be okay if they at least give us the same amount of dialogue choices we had in VTMB, but haha, I HIGHLY doubt we will see that level of writing again. ESPECIALLY since they're already confirming you can't pick your clan at the start, which had a huge effect on dialogue complexity.
and Avellone who occasionally manages to shit out something great

Not even worth a pirate then.
It was such a unique experience playing a Malk and I will be mad if they change it because boo hoo insane people.
In fact by changing it to not be offensive they are being much more offensive.
Doesn't it depend if this is nwod or owod? I thought owod was killed off after VTMB, why would they want to have a whole game built around its lore which they considered so crap they had to kill it off.
I liked the kuei jin though...oh well
I am not American so I have no clue about twitter but is it common to put that She\her on the profile?
That is pretty raving mad.
oh yeah, it's certainly not going to be a crpg, at least not mechanically. It's gonna be an action game with dialog
Beware the sewers
You will be forced to succ rats
That is all
what is this?
Bought it on GoG. Feels excellent.
It sucks that Cain and Boyarsky are stuck at shitsidian developing the new rick and morty game. This game would probably be 10/10 if they were involved.
The malk dialogue wasn't even that good. It made me feel like an even gayer Deadpool.
Yes because he never died.
The game is going to be watered down heavily in that area I'm afraid, I'm just going to hope that they give us some awesome and spooky locations to explore with a decent character creator.
Adding that woman to the writing team will only make it worse I'm afraid. She was an unnecessary inclusion.
Cain was hardly involved with Bloodlines.
I know, I didn't state otherwise.
>wanting to be human
Filthy kine loving scum.
>binary pronouns
Regular people don't need to remind others about they preferred pronouns, specially when there would be no chance that someone would misgender her, it just shows the kind of mindset she has.
oof
>This is the audience they are going for
I mean while I don't agree with trees, I think it's fair to say that the point based system of VTM is fucking awful, easily one of the worst aspects of tabletop.
First thing I tried to do was kill him with the observatory door but he just clipped right through so I just ran away. Was fucking pissed when I found out later the door method was exactly right and that it gave more experience.
As english is not my first language, I think his rumblings are the only time in gaming that I actually had trouble understanding what was being said. The fucker is extremely well spoken.
Those damn sewers
What's wrong with it?
What, you didn't like keeping a bunch of XP around at all times to up your shit as needed in a bizarre form of spontaneous evolution? What a casual.
>not being excited to finally play as a proud queer transpire of colour
A five point system doesn't work particularly well when comparing vampires of varying strength. It's really awkward gauging challenges and difficulty when your skills can be functionally boiled down to "okay, good, great, fantastic, god". Not to mention the xp system that VTM uses means you're typically going to bank fuckloads of points and as a result sort of struggle ahead with no real character development outside of roleplay stuff. And then dump your points into something specific when it shows up in your game.

Do vampire's feet smell?
They don't sweat. Dirt is still a factor through, and there's the disgusting corpse stank from some of them. Take all of that as you will.
>thought you were shitposting

Wow.
has there ever been a good western game made in the last 5 years that showed signs that coloured hair tranny dykes were making them and the game actually turned out good?
Why was the rogue Tremere enemy in the Hollowbrook mission female in my game but male in all the screenshots I see?
Battletech was alright.
what did paradox mean by this?
Reinstalled Bloodlines yesterday because of the hype.
Are there any graphics mods besides the resolution fix in the unofficial patch? All. I could find were some reshades. What does Yea Forums use?
Not really.
It's great that they brought Rik Schaffer back just because the original was so good but I can't get out of my head how he says that soundtrack cannot be recreated and was entirely a product of what his life was fifteen years ago.
>traced
Pfft, please. It's a fucking filter in Photoshop. They also copy-pasted, filtered and rotated a Winchester rifle photo for it.
Fuck this reeks of bullshit.
Some smaller games Like Mechanicus no.
No. Even Prey had bullshit in it.
The most extravagant the better the moral posturing. Shit flew to parody a long time ago.
No, but are you gonna let that stop the hype train
not to mention

there was a scary part in the game where i had to visit a hotel, couldnt finish it so i uninstalled cause im a pussy who was caught off guard with that mission. This trailer looks fun but i try my best to avoid anything scary. Should i avoid this game?
anyone got that Bloodlines first time image? The one that tells you which patches and mods to use?
I fucking love vtm dialogue. Specially the radio programs.
Bro, it is pretty much certain they are going to try to spook the shit out of everyone again.

Did anyone catch that off-handed mention of romance in one of the onstream interviews?? It was around the time when they were taking about how the devs ship some of their favorite characters. I'll try to find it but holy shit i don't know about this anons.. I hope it was a joke
I'm new to the series, everybody seams to be excited for it.
So far i've gathered is that the game is going to be a smaller but dense open world where you get to live the life of a modern day vampire.
Anything i'm missing or off about?
>roleplaying as a gen 3
nigger what are you doing? also it's been a while but I'm pretty sure brujah's primogen is canonically dead
To be fair, there were no weird hair colors or trannies in the dev team. Just one fat chick with stupid af hairstyle.

fpwp
user we know. We are just hoping something can be salvaged from this.
Its not open world but hubs, like Deus Ex.
dlc is werwolf
easter egg is demon
calling it now
Calm down, retardera.
Anons have been comparing it to Dying Light due to the sliding kick and dashes. I'd say it's more like FEAR 3 due to the same thing, along with apparently cover, where FEAR 3 had 2 cover systems.
That, and unlike the first one, you don't choose your clan from the get-go.
I'm guessing thats a good thing right? Mainly from what i understand is that this game is about interacting with people and less about driving and ect.
That does look slightly better I guess.
They really should've done a remaster first.
Fun fact: With thinblood alchemy you can actually get a sex reassignment surgery
Yeah, its about having alot of options and exploring
Yes, the first game had you going from hub to hub with people in it. Any driving is relegated to a cab driver/loading screen. It seems like the second game is going to do the same.
It depends on how they do it. But the first game was hub and level based, so that’s something.
I mean, with Vicissitude you can be almost anything on all levels including physical. Almost the same with Protean.
So really, that's peanuts.
>Profane Hieros Gamos: User can change their gender
Oh fuck.
Unfortunately, liberals can't yet openly call for genocide of white people in games yet.
It won't be long now.
The melting pot is a lie.
>Gender
>Not Sex
Wew lads.
Yeah but a lot of Tzimisce were either perverts or were trying to transcend their humanity. It makes sense for some of them to use vicissitude to look female or androgynous. This seems like just an excuse to genderflip someone and also doesn't really fit in with vampyric lore.

Caine is also a non binary woman
That's certainly true, but even beyond that clan Vampires have always been prone to shitting all over societal norms whenever they felt like because they figured that as abominations they don't really have a single reason to contain themselves. And while the extremes of that were limited to the Sabbat, the VtM books were full of... interesting and colorful personalities that wouldn't be out of place on a tumblr somewhere.

>If they keep their hyper-left bs content with Deb of night's tone I'm game.
So youre saying that there's a way to integrate politics into the game that would be perfectly acceptable and its pointless to try and shit on something you've never seen?

>Thin Blood Alchemy
>Oh you can use telekinesis, control mist, fly, create fresh blood, awaken vampires from torpor
>and cut your fucking dick off and wear a dress
I usually don't care about this sort of stuff but this is fucking stupid. Usually vampires changing their gender is reserved for vicissitude or briefly through the use of obfuscate (which is just an illusion anyway) Will still buy the game though.
I think the patch is already included in the gog version.
I wonder if some "abandoned" disciplines will appear in this game. Kineticism seems like it's appropriate for a thin blood
Someone answer this beautiful faggot.
GOG has the patch
the unoffical patch? Really?
Yes.

So everyone agrees E3 will have gameplay?
They better have some gameplay then.
More than likely.
They showed a 15 second clip of the pier last month. It's a little interesting they didn't show any gameplay at all for the reveal.
Then again, this probably let's them build up some more slow burning hype leading up to the gameplay reveal.
for what purpose? Unless you're getting a hefty discount why would anyone preorder a game that hasn't even had gameplay footage shown?
>Rik Schaffer back on soundtrack
Please tell me this is real
Voiced protagonist or not?
I prefer not, if it means having more dialogue options.
It is, but it's unlikely the music will be as good. The original was a result of having a really shitty life at the time.
It's probably not going to have a voiced protagonist, given the level of customization they want to have.
Absolutely FUCKING BASED
Enjoy having a system similar to Fallout 4.
I prefer not because it means they can spend the money they'd pay on VAs on making the game alright

>102 ca$
Holy fucking shit, you leaf paying 4 times higher than me.
I doubt it. There's too many clans for that to really work + Mitsoda said there is way more dialogue than in the original Bloodlines
Fuck it, reinstalling bloodlines 1 and rolling a female brujah. Never played a female in this game
Rik admitted that there's no way he could top his soundtrack in Bloodlines because he made that when his life had completely gone to shit and now he's a different person. The Hollywood theme was made the day he got released from prison. But I'm glad to see him back
im gonna try tremere for once

not sure about the steam version sorry
VtM:B was a product of the time when the left wing hadn't completely lost the plot yet.
You can grab it on moddb. Download and run the .exe, point it to the game folder (it will assume the wrong location, you have to point it there) and choose the basic or plus (I recommend basic for first few playthroughs).
You then have to run the game from a shortcut or add:
-game Unofficial_Patch
to the launch options through Steam or else Steam will run the unpatched version.

AAAAAAAAAAAHH SEATTLE ISNT GOING TO BE COMFY ITS GOING TO BE SHIT AAAAAAAAAHH GIB SANTA MONICA
VtMB played loose with a lot of the lore for gameplay purposes. A lot of the disciplines were modified from the tabletop (especially Thaumaturgy, Animalism, Dementation, and so on) the Clan weaknesses were tweaked, and there's never a proper explanation as to why LaCroix couldn't dominate you in the end. There's also no real explanation as to how you become so powerful so quickly

this reads like a christian fundamentalist critizing DnD out of fear that some satanist might be acting out their fantasies.

>all these preorderers
>not even aware that it might be pulled out of Steam and/or GOG just like Metro Exodus because Epic
That actually incentives people to pre-order it on Steam asap since Steam honors pre-orders that were made before the exclusivity deal.
no. it'll probably be a shit game, but at least they're not trying to re-write the previous game out of existence.

>mfw can't ever choose between tremere and gangrel
hopefully I can play a gangrel that doesn't look like a pothead this time
No because a dozen sentences from thousands of lines written are going to be politics-related and Yea Forums will cherrypick those lines and call the game shit ad infinitum.
Some insiders alright got gameplay impressions so we're probably going to get that same demo.
Any opinions on Wesp's Plus patch if it's not your first time playing through Bloodlines?
Fuck me in the ass, I forgot this game existed despite wanting to try it at some point. So after seeing the trailer I got vtmb, and holy shit what have I been doing, playing all these shitty games before now.
I used it on my first playthrough
I hope so
The major is such a great antagonist to alucard until the author did a 180 and revived him
This is what is so fucking stupid to me.
These games are all about being a fucking evil monster of the night, humanity is not a measure of good vs evil and they made a point to drive that home in the earlier books.
>Hotline: Masquerade
I'd unironically play the shit out of that. There's already the SUPERHOTline Miami game for how Celerity would work.
It is basically the witcher again. The Author made seem Triss like a cunt while the devs made her a viable love interest. The author can claim he decides since he created the orginal story, The developer can claim he popularized it. I don't give a fuck about the tabletop and I think of the game as an "elsewhere story". Just use comic book rules for non canon shit if you realize that two authors have had a different vision.
Oh God that screenshot my fucking hype level bros this is up there with cyberpunk and Death stranding for me
This image tells me what I need to know to just ignore this.
Where to?
I was going to but then I remembered no game play was shown. If they show something good, then I'll pre-order but if it looks like garbage then maybe after a few weeks.
It irks me that people would compare a totally fictitious mental affliction with anything real.
Yes.
A real VTMB fan, faggot
It somewhat baffles me that anyone could think a setting with so much morbid shit would be in any way compatible with sensitivity and inclusiveness. There are many kinds of outcast and they are outcast for a reason, collective reasons that obviously make them incompatible with each other.
I kinda hope they put Antitribu options in the game even if they are fucking faggots.
I feel like these types of people got embraced because they were a majority. Elders probably regret letting Kindred sire.
~23-25(1549rub) dollars in Russia, it's a bit cheaper than standard price of 1999 rub for a new game. Since it isn't an AAA product the price seems reasonable.
kek
I NEVER THOUGHT THIS WOULD HAPPEN!
It is extremely annoying that they retconned thin-bloods to essentially be unrecognizable from their original position, but those powers are pretty cool.
Same fuck all seething /pol/tard newfags.
I personally can't wait to turn their political bullshit upside down. It's still presumably an RPG with choises. And there will be mods.
People found the vailians in PoE offensive because they were civilized and black. However you could tell them to fuck off and go all genocide on them if you wanted. It's a fucking RPG.
Same with Hitman 2, some companies want poorfag cunts to enjoy their games too.
So is this Old world of darkness, or new, though? It sounds like the original clans; didn't they get rid of those in nWoD or something?

>NPCs can react to you depending on what background you chose for your character in character creation, for example you can be a cop, a coroner, or a barista for a more neutral and blank slate background
>The humanity system returns, so killing innocents brings you closer to the inner beast
>If your humanity is low enough it will have implications with your dialogue choices
>Way more dialogue than Bloodlines
>Part (2/3)
>You can use telekenesis, turn into mist to go through vents and glide
>Blood resonance from VtM 5th edition will appear in this game. Using your enhanced vampire senses, you can see when NPCs are experiencing an intense emotion like fear, desire, pain, joy and anger. Drinking a person with a strong resonance will give you an immediate bonus to things like melee power or seduction. If you drink a particular resonance constantly, you will acquire a taste for it and this will give you permanent buffs called "merits".
>No quest markers, natural exploration just like the original
>You can scale buildings, there's an emphasis on verticality
>Level design is reminiscent of the original Deus Ex, you're offered many different pathways to approach a particular scenario
>Lots of secrets and hidden pathways to find
>Emphasis on fluid combat, using vampiric speed to slide in and out of melee range and slash people and execute them with melee weapons. You can get special cinematic finishers in combat when you execute people a la Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Counters are in. Guns exist and are treated as temporary opportunities, you pick em up, use it, then discard it and move on.
>Seattle as a hub world is described as "very active", crowds gather outside clubs and muggers prey on victims in side allies
>It’s still called the Masquerade, so if you eat someone in public or turn into a bat in front of a bar you’ll get in trouble not only with the police, but also some beefier supernatural watchdogs
>Your actions dynamically effect the npc enviroment i.e If you continuously suck on people's blood in full view of the public, they'll be less wary of going to those areas and you'll see less citizens wandering the streets
>Part (3/3)
Setting will be adapted to modern standards
>“It was very of its time,” Ellison said of the first game. “It approached certain topics differently. How we look at stuff has matured since then.”
>“It’s fifteen years later and things have changed,” Mitsoda said. “We have to be very sensitive about how we handle things like mental illness and that was a concern for us and for Paradox, in how we can make a mature story but if we do anything, we do our homework and make sure that we are punching up and not punching down.”
>“We talk about these issues constantly,” Ellison added. “Because we care about including people, we want them to feel powerful and sexy, and we don’t want them to feel like it’s not for them.”
Because blood magic is OP and giving it to any random faggot is a bad idea.
Everything's looking promising, but I still have a couple of questions.
Will they be able to recreate the dark, moody atmosphere from the original? That was like 85% of its appeal.
Will the ocassional cheesiness come back?
youtu.be
youtu.be
the point is asking for pre-orders for a game that is a year away and only has a cinematic teaser.
FPS is a lazy cop-out genre for games that are not shooters.
Day 1 dlc, pre order fuckery, and extremely she pozzed writing makes this a total joke. It will flop lol. Enjoy your threads, fags.
The already said no, they are trying to do something different. Watch the stream.
I didn’t realize pro tranny fuck whites propaganda was allowed in Russia.
FUCK OFF NOW!
When can we expect to see gameplay?
>body type
Fat Nosferatu here I come.
When they have enough purple hair bulldyke pre orders
>We have to be very sensitive about how we handle things like mental illness and that was a concern for us and for Paradox
So no Malks?
>favorite characters are dead
well, fuck me
From my understanding there won't be a Nosferatu disfigurement anymore. Thin bloods are 'clan-less' in a sense that they possess no unique mutations.
I FUCKING HATE THESE IDIOTS
so sjws have raped another franchise to death?
>Smiling Jack and Beckett are canonically dead
Except they're totally not. Both of them are well and alive in V5, which this game is using as basis for its setting. Where the fuck did you get this obvious misinformation from?
>FUCKING POL WHAT IS THEIR PROBLEM SO WHAT IF THE DEVELOPERS THEMSELVES ARE HARDCORE LEFTISTS AND WANT THEIR GAME TO BE POLITICAL HUH SO WHAT
>paying for globohomo propaganda
Lol, the absolute state of you.
>takes 15 years after bloodlines
Just fuck my continuity up, huh senpai?
The world ended 3 days after bloodlines did.

Beckett's Jyhad Diary
They're dead.
He's on your side, you absolute fucking retard.
so what?
No? Mitsoda specifically said that his main focus was making it feel like a Bloodlines and has also specifically mentioned the tone and the atmosphere being important in other interviews
>HAHHA THE OLD GAME WAS POLITICAL TOO IT HAD PRO-LEFTIST JOKE RESPONSES IN SOME DIALOGUE U MAD NOW POL HUH U MAD
>FUCKING POL WHAT IS THEIR PROBLEM BANKRUPTED TELLTALE BY NOT BUYING THEIR WOKE GAMES
/pol/ on suicide watch absolutely seething
>this thread
Go home, tourist
>this is what /pol/ actually thinks
I bet you are beta af yourself
>YEAH WELL OK POL THE WRITING IS ON THE WALL REGARDING THE QUALITY OF THE NEW GAME BUT YOU HAVE NOT PLAYED IT YET THAT MEANS IT'S GONNA BE GOOD U MAD BRO U MAD?
>some literal who retarded polish whore that can barely speak english presumes to interpret events
>tiered DLC
>season pass for a fucking single player RPG
They know sequelfags are so desperate that they will eat up any shit that gets thrown their way. Release 2/3 of a game then nickel and dime the remaining third with DLC over the course of a few years, the Paradox modus operandi. They aren't getting a penny from me.
>fuck off /pol/
That's why I listed the sources friendo. They're canonically dead. Whether the game brings them back, I don't know.
I hope they'd include nazi gangs, SO I CAN KILL THEM
Jokes on you, vampires were with the Nazis.
Keep telling yourself that, now BTFO
Tzimisce were literally with the Nazis, you dumb fuck. Go read one of the clanbooks. Not to mention there were a fair amount of Ventrue involved as well.
Please quit replying to these retards they're just fishing for (you)s.
Go wank fap to your nazi fanfiction then, fuck off
nooooooo i always thought vampires were anti-establishment like my friends on tumblr told me!
You are on the wrong side of history! the next game will champion our cause!
wow, you are a stupid of life
Wasn't Cain jewish?
You mad bro?
Well. Yeah, actually. So what? Who gives a shit what a single game ends up as?
It's a sequel made way after its time. It'll almost certainly be garbage, and aggressively mediocre at best. Anyone with a lick of sense will limit their hype to the bare minimum. That's about all that matters. Complaints won't change what the devs are doing, if they really are as hardcore leftists as you say. It serves no purpose other than flinging shit at people who dare look forward to something. Don't frame it as anything more, let alone some crusade. Because nothing you do here matters.
>samefagging this hard
The sign of resetera
Cry harder /pol/tard

it's interesting how different vtmb2 threads are from vtmb threads. This feels so forced.

It's almost like Vtmb2 is made by delusional and opinionated leftists
