Hey look, it's a Vampire the Masquerade thread

Hey look, it's a Vampire the Masquerade thread.
I've decided to torrent the game since I've always heard it's supposed to be good. Is there a suggested torrent? I was just going to use some GOG one from Kickass.
Also I heard something about needing to get some fan patch/mod to make it playable?

People say the gog one was already patched

Yeah, you only have to patch it if you get the Steam or original 3 CD version.

Alright, I'll just give the GOG one a try then and just look for a patch if the game seems fucked.

It should be fine unless you get one of the old versions where the patch maker introduced new bugs. But if you do install a new patch, remember you have to start a new game or some stuff will be broken, you can't continue with an old save.

Who is the strongest vampire you meet in game? Ignoring the videogame fuckery.

Cabbie.
For other answers you have to define "strong"

>TFW there will never be a werewolf game
Why must whitewolf only give a fuck about vampire? Werewolf the forsaken is my favorite book but I´d love to play a game about changellings or even mages. Hell, give me a hunter rpg instead of that action one (that was pretty fun, don´t get me wrong). I like all the creatures of the night, but I don´t want to be stuck with only vamps as my option for vidja

beth isn't the only dev that needs modders to fix their game

>the forsaken
Disgusting.
>mage
That's never happening and you know it.
>Changeling
I'd like a Dreaming game too.

Probably Jack, if you go by his stats from the books. Strauss is probably strong too, and Gary says you wouldn't even be close to a match for him if he wanted to kill you, but they don't have stats like this to compare.

GOG version has slightly outdated patch, unless they updated it recently. You should probably grab the unofficial patch from Moddb and install it over.

Giving the game a go. Any non-spoiler things I should know for chargen? Mainly just is there any "trap" choices that'll fuck me over later in the game? In fact I seem to recall seeing a few "overview" images posted in these threads in the past. Anyone got one to post?

Finance is useless
Subterfuge is borderline useless

Just don't put all your points into the social stats, you need points in combat stats since you're forced into combat at some points

>Finance is useless
It's kind of useful if you're playing a character that uses guns and has Research. You get some free points in it which makes ammo cheaper.

>Subterfuge is borderline useless
Persuasion is technically the most useful but Intimidate and Seduction are still fun if you just want to roleplay with it.

Piratebay ---> GOG
patch it with unofficial blood when you're done installing

Just be sure to have some form of combat well trained. You will need it in the second half of the game

intimidation is useless. charm is kinda useless. persuasion is fine.
last third of the game is combat heavy, focus on being able to kill things.
brujah shoots. gangrel/nos punches. tremere vomits blood.

>Mainly just is there any "trap" choices that'll fuck me over later in the game?

Don't fall for Jeanette's bullshit. Therese is best girl.

>brujah shoots.
Brujah is better for melee since they have Potence and Presence. Toreador is what you want if you want to shoot since they can get Auspex on top of Celerity.

>better for melee
better than who? gangrel?

Brujah with melee is better than Brujah with guns.

Although it doesn't entirely matter because you can build them however you want if you know what you're doing. You can still do a Brujah/Gangrel/Nosferatu with guns, or a melee Tremere, etc.

the cucks at whitewolf retconned it and said he wasn't cain, but that doesn't mean he couldn't have been the antediluvian in the tomb and just swapped out with that mummy in the end sequence

It doesn't matter if they retconned it. It's stupid to go into someone else's story and say "no that can't happen".

but it's not their story, it's white wolf's.

>the cucks at whitewolf retconned it and said he wasn't cain

The game wasn't ever supposed to be canon. That's the only reason they allowed Caine to be in the game at all.

People tell their own stories and play their own versions of it, is what I meant. Like people actually playing the tabletop game and making their own characters and plots. That's the point of the game system.

Sure. But that doesn't make those canon to the setting

>I was just going to use some GOG one from Kickass.
That's fine. In the future you may choose to replay with a more updated patch, but the one included with the GOG version is probably fine. It may even be better, the patch maker does chuck dumb shit in on whims after all.

Has he diablerized someone?

Any other bros get the blood moon preorder edition already? Feels good

Reminder that Tremere are virgins that deserve to get bullied by Brojahs and Chadgrels.

>Preorders

Yikes!

I don't preorder. Ever.

PAY

>haven't done a playthrough this year yet
Alright, what to play next?
I have done MajickTreme(cammy), MeleeMalk(anarch) and Melee/gunToreador(fuckeverything). Fuck Nossies, sewers are boring.

Yeah but VtMB doesn't need to be canon. I never expected it to be canon while I played it.
