GIMME VAMPIRE TITTIES!
So which clans/bloodlines will not be playable (ever) but have a role in the story?
Like the Giovanni and nagaraja did in 1
Nosferatu, you know it to be true.
So do the Sabbat get a bad rep in Bloodlines? I can't see why anyone would want to side with them other than 'lul evul' playthroughs
I pray for thicc vampire mods.
Shocked if the whole thing isn't Tzimisce 4D chess
They are very much card carrying evil, even if fans will defend them.
Does some kind user have that image of suggested clans for so and so playthroughs? Been a while.
White Wolf can never make up their mind if the Sabbat are well meaning and actually right about everything, crazy but necessary, or just standard bad guys to fight. It doesn't help the way they are written 99% of the people that would ever want to play one in the tabletop are turbo edgelords that ruin the game.
You need generic bad guys to fight and humans don't make sense, there aren't enough Hunters and supernaturals are boss tier, plus they'd take too much focus from the vamps if they appeared en mass.
Sabbat fit the role the best, though they do have some good triats, they're fighting for a just cause in trying to stop the end of the world.
Clan wars could be pretty kino though
>Thinbloods! Come out and play!
Just pick gangrel, bro. RIP&TEAR for unlife.
You need an image to suggest you play Tremere?
I think Sabbat make sense, yo would have asshole vampires like that.
This is Paradox, so if the game is successful they will probably keep putting in free clans to help sell dlc until they run out of clans
On a scale of 1-10, how hyped are you, Yea Forumsros?
Nosferatu are literally incel bait
Tremere, eh? Suppose I can do that, magic is fun. Why not
1
Playing Bloodlines for the first time. Do you eventually get to pick who to side like, for example, New Vegas?
3
Videogames are hard and made on iteration. If its a half finished mess like the first I would be happy.
I dont believe in the full return of mid tier triple B devs yet despite some successes.
We will get there maybe, when the triple A just go over the cliff with only online and micotransactions.
what engine are they using?
Yes.
VtMB is NV before NV was NV.
Sabbat are idiots unaware of the simple fact that if humanity as a whole realizes they exist and unites against them, they lose HARD
Sure you could say that the other player' head in the sand attitude towards the apocalypse isn't much better but with them there won't need to be an apocalypse for them to get wiped out
I would unironically spent extra money for Tzimisce, Salubri, or Baali
Yes, in one of the collest scenes ever I seen in a videogame, the other one being what? Torment and Arcanum.
Arcanum being another broken troika mess. I still love it.
Unreal, so I have hope for lewdificators.
I am expecting nothing, I will not be making any sort of judgement until the credits roll.
>Salubri
Souldrinker
>2019
>Hype
I have seen too much blunders in this fucking industry to be hyped. I am prepared for a major disappointment 4/10
Oh shit. Great to hear.
Thats bullshit though, a powerful ventrue can just walk into a nuclear missile silo and cause ww3
>Salubri, or Baali
Where's the difference?
If the sabbat are more rational this time they'll be focused on their mission of killing the antediluvians. Normally this makes them less focused on simply fighting the camarilla. Typically to make bad guy vamps for the players to fight they just make the sabbat into simply evil.
Fuck off magecuck
Wait a sec who else is working on it? Is Avellone on it as well?
>Baali
>he wants to give demon blowjob
Kys
If a random guy just approaches a nuclear missile silo at night he's gonna get shot into torpor before he even has the chance to dominate anyone.
Now he could theoretically dominate some poor guy into pressing the red button if he has terminal decree but why would he?
Yes, so is Brian Mitsoda.
So anons, what vampire or vampire clan would you party with?
If it wasn't true, why are the Tremere still around despite their sin? Why didn't the other clans stand with their ancient allies of the Salubri that are so good and pure and healers for kindred kine alike if there is no basis to the rumors?
>Avellone on it as well?
Would be a bigger surprise if he wasn't desu.
Vampires could prep for nuclear holocaust and cause it then hunt the survivors or release bio warfare shit
Feeding? human farms, the human threat in the setting is not very believable
6, expecting janky Dishonored, which would still be fun.
Honestly in the tabletop the most common enemy is other kindred from the same sect that either try to make a powerplay or counteract your powerplay
No, I think that's the core book. Daeva clanbook had the guy who cheated on his gf with a vampire qt and left his entire life behind to find her again and the movie script that's basically a retelling of the Daeva myth with a vampire secret agent
you think a single guy can launch a nuclear missile? there's a shitload of checks on that stuff requiring the authorization of several high-ranking individuals
And good fucking luck dominating them when humanity KNOWS there are vampire that can pull this crap
In the WOD universe, vampires got nearly wiped out by medieval humanity just with sheer numbers
>Vampire
Beckett
>Clan
Toreador
I want Tzimisce to be playable but I know it won't ever happen.
>Vampires could prep for nuclear holocaust
No they couldn't
>and cause it
Probably
>Feeding? human farms, the human threat in the setting is not very believable
Vampires are literally unconscious for the entire daytime in addition to being horribly afraid of fire and the sun both of which destroy them easily.
Bros...
We're going home
I would love a janky dishonored and Prey.
Both games seem to hit it so well but miss the soul of Thief and System Shock respectfully.
I was really surprised by Prey. The only problem is some sjw shit that is not important and tries too hard to be stylistically similar to bioshit.
Avellone did some good writing on it. Despite what some people say he still has the skill.
I will be honest I am kinda jealous this game is getting such a warm reception.
Thief with its amazing setting and style i probably forever gone.
Play VTM Redemption
when humanity detonated their first nuke the collective vampire elders shat themselves
Vampires have an innate almost unconquerable fear of fire and have a rather averse reaction to sunlight, and humanity just figured out how to light up a sun on the surface
If vamps get the first strike they will win without oppossition they are the perfect espionage and plotting mary sues
Dishonored isn't better than Thief I or II, but Prey is better than both Shock games.
So now that we're waiting another week for a clan reveal, what next clan would personally surprise you positively?
>No they couldn't
Why not? they are rich as fuck
>Vampires are literally unconscious for the entire daytime
So? lobotomizing, ghouls, etc
Nah Toreador are. Literal "be as beautiful and popular and oh so sexual" self inserts. Nosferatu fit the best with the "struggling with becoming a monster and coming to terms with the new existence" and have the best ties with the oldest vampire lore in real life, Strigoi etc.
Btw shitposting the FUCK out of you when /ourguys/ get confirmed next week.
Malkavian
>and humanity just figured out how to light up a sun on the surface
Pretty sure nukes don't count as the sun for curse reasons.
The fucking explosion is enough.
The Camarilla and Masquerade both exist for the single reason that Kindred are afraid of mortals.
And for good fucking reason as even in the fucking middle ages they nearly got wiped out and only survived by pretending to never have existed.
Gameplay wise? Yeah.
But I still prefer System Shock 2. Personally.
if vampires were actually capable of making a first strike they would have done so long ago
they could get in 5000 to 1 k/d ratios and STILL LOSE
and god knows that the vast majority of vampires would bite it against a squad of prepared soldiers
That chad spergs out if you are a cute girl and says he wants to torture you for your vanity
Sounds like an incel to me
RIP&TEAR machines.
>99% of the people that would ever want to play one in the tabletop are turbo edgelords that ruin the game
Bingo. I tell my normal 5e group that I'm interested in running a Vampire game and the first question out of the resident edgelord's mouth is, "Can we do a Sabbat game?" I just fucking know he wants to do degenerate shit and hide behind the, "It's what my character would do." smokescreen. Vampires are already edgy, but edgelords always have to push it one step further.
>No playable Tzimisce
Well there's always mods, right?......right?
The Camarilla are cucks and crooks
> they would have done so long ago
What's stopping them are Camarilla and kindred who enjoy human civilization too much, if everyone was sabath its game over
do thinbloods sired by nosferatu become abominations too?
4/10
>Developers have never made a good game
>Publishers are king Jew of DLC
>Probably no Malkavians
>Based on terrible iteration of the game everyone dislikes
>Writer from the first game has made pretty bad shit recently
>The era that made the first game so special is long gone
I'm dubious.
Vampires are protected from mages thanks to humans though aren't they? Humans existing is what stops mages from being able to do whatever they want, on top of that humans are vamp's main sustinance, Ventrue are the guys sitting at the top of the Cam and they can't feed on rats so they would never allow anything to threaten their main food supply.
Then you have to take into consideration what the Werewolves would do if Vamps started actively trying to bring about the end of the planet, no reason to keep a low profile if it's all or nothing, same goes for the Church and their Hunters, fairly sure someone somewhere would sense the danger long before anyone took such drastic action, and then you'd have guys with True Faith smiting everything just by existing.
Pretty sure it's a bad deal all around.
>Why not? they are rich as fuck
In a scenario where humanity realizes they exist all of that wealth is gone
and mass-ghouling is not something that is actually possible, especially not when humanity knows about ghouls
Well its not as much a parasitic as a symbiotic relationship right?
You have segments of human elite that know they exist, instead of going hunter, instead they work to get that sweet immortality.
The prideful and haughty deserve to be humbled, FUCK Toreador dolls
Yes, the game is being made on unreal and Paradox is pretty open to mods.
I fear for the tzimisce on the tabletop tough, as the sabbat doesn't really exists and the lasombra clan decided to go camarilla.
>zooms in
>dead guy on right is black
So, /pol/ is an antagonist in 2, huh?
They have some features like pointed ears, big teeth, maybe very pale skin, but they don't get nearly as big a twisting as the stronger blooded Nossies do. The one we see in the trailer may be a Nosferatu thinblood, the guy in the hoodie.
A post apocalyptic nosgoth kinda scenario is cool.
Cyberpunk WoD is also fun. Like in Redemption.
Any good mods I should install for my 4th playthrough? I already know about Clan Quest mod, and I've herad that the antitribu mod is terrible.
To be fair Sabbat campaigns would be way closer to what D&D players are used to compared to the mostly social stuff in Cam/Anarch campaigns.
because humanity as a whole doesn't know vampires exist
when vampires get outed then it suddenly becomes an option to capture them, and vivisect to see what makes them tick rather than trying to appease an inhuman monster in the hopes of immortality
>muhh Dracula
>muhh Castlevania
>muhh Vicissitude
Just accept superiority of Tremere.
jesus christ
>In a scenario where humanity realizes they exist all of that wealth is gone
I'm arguing about the ability of vampires to plot and execute a mass genocide before they are caught
God, I wish that was me.
>antagonist
They never marketed main antagonist on covers, desu.
>Bonus is being a beautiful Mary Sue
>Drawback is having an art boner
Why are Toreador even a clan?
you can't execute a genocide in secret
the sheer logistics would require plans that could be ousted immediately
do animal ghouls become more inteligent or they are as smart without consuming vitae?
Like that guy in Chinatown. Yeah I guess.
I mean its bleh vampires, one should never try to hard to be too autistic even in a setting like this.
>The Camarilla are cucks and crooks
Hey remember how it worked out in the fucking middle ages?
You know before humans had flame throwers, guns, incindiary ammunition and explosives.
Every. FUCKING. TIME!
10/10 i will play anything with vampires
So, /pol/ is good guy then and you will join him in his killing spree against minorities and tumblr? I thought you folks said this game was meant to be woke?
Dinosaurs are pretty cool user. Wonder if we'll get another random Raptor in this game.
Beast ghouls gain higher intelligence and mutate, getting bigger and more predatory. Nossies often have giant rats, fleas, and sometimes alligators as guards for their warrens.
Toreador would shock me
>reach kardashev type 2.
>dismantle earth to create dyson sphere and rotating habitats.
>sun finally gets vampires
it's not autistic at all, it's a core part of the setting that most supernatural creatures would be fucked if humanity got their shit together
it's why the planet is dominated by human society and why they all remain secret
No. "He" is obviously a tranny, you filthy cis. Can't you see?
cool
Not if you can dominate, ghoul and mindwipe
why not just create a giant space mirror, point it at a city giving 24h sunlight, comb it for vampires in hiding and then move to the next city?
any vamps willing to run for it into the wilderness get werewolf'd anyways
Why is tranny killing black people then? Aren't trannies and minorities BFF-s?
Those posts get way easier to deal with once you rationalize them as RPing as a shovelhead
Yes on the other side, waking humanity is nigh impossible. And makes them a victim as well.
It works out fine.
I would really like an in-depth Hunter game. Like that carpenter movie I forget the name. Preparing and executing an assault on a vampire coven.
>Nosferatu
Tick tock, we are coming for you faggots.
>Yes on the other side, waking humanity is nigh impossible
sure, but we're talking about the scenario "vampires declare war on humanity" here, which is sufficient to wake them up
You don't need to wake them to make them a threat.
Just at "terrorists" and let them conduct dawn raids. The Sabbat lost one of their Seraphs to that
Tremere bring magic (power) to the Camarilla, so the cuck Ventrue forgave their heressy against the Salubri
Because he was dating wh*te woman. Which means that he deserved to die.
Seriously, lets stop with this shit now.
Did you play Vampyr?
The Tremere diablerized Saulot around ~3 or 400 years before the Camarilla was formed.
Mages only nominally exist in the setting unless you're actually running a Mage game.
You're the one who started it all with tranny shit.
mildly hyped, i like the trailer music and even if it ends up being a Deus Ex clone thats okay for me
Always wanted to ask, I never read anything about Blade, but dont you guys feel the first and second movie had WoD elements in them?
Or is it the other way around?
You had ventrue, the whole aesthetic. I dont know, Iw as never big into vampires. Its just my love for Bloodlines.
I daresay I tried reading Anne Rice and it was so fucking shit I ahd toi stop and read some Yourcenar to cleanse myself.
Classic Dracula is still awesome.
Yes I agree.
wasn't the technocracy instrumental in helping nuke the gypsie head vamp?
>a Deus Ex clone
I mean, isn't this what the original was?
yeah, it was okay
I expected more creativity from Eurojank.
But its still a decent game.
1 because the 5-second teaser gameplay clips don't really actually constitute gameplay footage, but it might go up considerably once actual gameplay is shown, or not.
Like a 6 or 7
Probably around the same hype as I have for Wraith
I don't really think I'm hyped for anything else...
Maybe Animal Crossing or what weebs police simulator by Platinum for Switch
Why did my mind immediately think of this
youtube.com
The best thing about a Hunter game is that it would be the perfect way to introduce all the other WoD game lines, since Hunters go after pretty much every supernatural that they catch wind of.
As hype as years of disappointment will let me. The lead writer seems breddy based though.
>"Well when I got the call [about a Bloodlines sequel], and uh, well obviously I was interested... But there was also this sense of apprehension, you know [Rik Schaeffer] will tell you how hard this setting is to do right, and coming back to it after a decade, *laughs* humans aren't immortal, things change. But I've been blown away by what [Paradox] is doing, there's a lot of love there for what we did, a lot of support. More than that, there's an understanding of what makes this story tick, it got me right back in that zone, they know what's up. After all, you know, at it's heart, [Vampire] is really a cautionary tale about NIGG- oh, *chuckles* I shouldn't spoil too much"
Yeah, but the first allies of the Tremere were the jew Ventrue.
Killing one black guy doesn't make him /pol/
>Classic Dracula is still awesome.
Books or movie? Never hear people mention the novel, not to the extent of Frankenstein anyway
>HAVEN DECORATION TREMERE CLAN SIGN
wow that sure was fucking worth it
Just me, or guy on this wallpaper kinda looks like him, but with long hair?
Whelp, I party with no one, kindred or kine.
Still though, without humans tying the mages to reality the entire setting is going to erupt into chaos
That's pretty sad, user, you want a hug? Or a friend?
The book of course.
It still holds up. Many from that time dont.
its like the first genuine attempt at something like blair witch, fooling you with diary entries to enhance the believability of the story.
Maybe...
What is the cutoff generation that determines if you're a thinblood or a regular member of a clan?
>Always wanted to ask, I never read anything about Blade, but dont you guys feel the first and second movie had WoD elements in them?
Yes. I always say Blade is probably the closest thing to a VtMB movie. Frost is basically trying to Diablerize all the other elder vampires and Blade, Whistler and Smiling Jack seem similar in quite a few ways, Blade saving Karen isn't too different from you making Heather your ghoul, and the whole intro scene to Blade feels like becoming a vampire and walking into The Asylum for the first time and both have iconic songs.
I really like it and still watch it once in a while. Second movie was decent but too heavy on CGI in some parts. Third movie was shit.
>Many from that time dont.
Reading Jekyll and Hyde is a blast, especially that the obvious is the big twist at the end
13
>we can kill dev if game fails
Nice.
I rolled Brujah as a self-insert first playthrough on release but re-rolled Toreador after a few hours to find out what it was like to be attractive actually, then found out about celerity and that sealed the deal.
god i hope they cut the Toreador clan
14-15
>vampire clan would you party with
Any of them except Ventrue
Its short and sweet.
But I am not that big into anglo classics. Just the main stuff.
Is weakness to UV-radiation/light even a thing in WoD or is the Sun some magic/holy thing that renders stuff like UV-flash grenades from other vampire fiction useless?
>Is weakness to UV-radiation/light even a thing in WoD
Not generally
why most vtm art consist of S&M freaks?
Also, being thinblood is secretly based and redpilled as fuck, if you forget about the fact that everyone despise you or/and want to kill/diabelerize you
Setites are weak to light. I think it's just a magical curse though that makes it so the sun is the only issue and artificial UV lights won't do anything. At least in the game, when you're confronting the Mandarin, his lights don't do anything to you.
How does Caine work? If vampirism is supposed to be a curse, then how come vampire can just off themselves by exposing themselves to sunlight? Can't Caine just sleep it off by going into torpor?
Because its a Goth generator.
I wonder if there will be more crossover with other games.
Like a human npc who is secretly a mage, and if you fuck with them you get shit down your throat.
>Hating on based turbohomo clan
But yeah, they'll probably cut it, and have Ventrue as the "social" clan.
God doesn't want to let him die, but can you blame him? Caine showed a middle finger to God's messenger three times.
People can't fathom having a good time with a well written and played ventrue, toreador or brujah. They HAVE to use their snowflake clan
Yes and?
>Mage character
>get within arms reach of him while he's doing mortal shit
>insert fangs
>*WHIRRRRRRRRRRRR]*
>"NOOOOO HELP, MY BLOOD'S GETTING SUCKED IN, I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE ALL POWERF-"
>*humanity gained*
But how would that work if Caine is also presumably vulnerable to sunlight? And can't someone diablerize Caine should the latter offer himself willingly?
Based.
>But how would that work if Caine is also presumably vulnerable to sunlight?
He might want to stay out of the sunlight but it won't kill him. He basically can't die.
>And can't someone diablerize Caine should the latter offer himself willingly?
Anything done to Caine gets returned seven times, so draining him would be like you being drained seven times which would just result in him taking you over.
Caine isn’t vulnerable to shit, son
That's interesting. Do the very low generation vampires have anything similar to that last ability?
>Caine is also presumably vulnerable to sunligh
Yes, he would just be walking, burning skeleton still al... unlive nonetheless
>And can't someone diablerize Caine should the latter offer himself willingl
You underestimate God's hateboner for Caine.
>mfw the shit I saw in the two weeks I was part of a Changeling campaign
11/10 - already pre-ordered
No, it's specific to Caine. The other low generation ones are just strong enough to basically be unkillable anyway though.
>he doesn't know
>Dracula
>Vicissitude
>Tremere
>no Vicissitude
Changeling attracts the weirdest of weirdos and should be quarantined into its own setting or something so the rest of us never have to interact with Changeling players even by accident.
Not anymore in V5. Thinbloods get 0 bane severity and 0 blood potency, they don't show ANY of the clan characteristics they get.
nerd retard
Why?
Delete this and spoiler that shit. There are a lot of fledglings in these threads who are curious about the game.
They'll cut whatever clan you like
I forget, do they ever tell the prince not to open it? Beckett and Jack tell you to not get too involved with the thing, and Beckett just tells you not to touch it outright, but does anyone ever warn the poor prince?
i play toreador because i like playing characters that i can relate to because im dumb
If the game isn't at least 40 hours of main quest and side quests it will bomb hard. I'm worried that with only ten months to go it will be a small hub with like a fifteen hour long game and then they will "encourage" you to replay that same content but with a different race. I can just see them gypping everyone like that.
They do if they take the clan bane thinblood flaw.
By default 10.
Based on what we know and the gaming climate...8.
That's one of the things literally in the bible.
Whatever done to him shall be delivered unto the doer 7 times over.

Poor prince? Fuck off cammie.

i want it but i know it wont be as good as the first but i think it'll still be good
I would assume Beckett said something to LaCroix before he left about not wanting to open it anymore. LaCroix was basically taken over by his Beast at that point though and wouldn't have listened to anyone.
>not expecting the DLC jew
Jack wants lacroix to open it.
Beckett probably warned Lacroix who likely brushed it off
>Spoiler warnings for a 15 year old game

Few drawbacks and limitations
It's almost just an upgrade from being human
The Swedish Jew will only work on appearance/outfit customization. New clans will be free, they said so themselves.
What's the point of playing Tremere when you can use telekinesis now which is cooler than blood magic?
Roleplaying as people that are hated by everyone because they are better ? not thanks I'm already white irl
They ruin the session for the whole group and act irrationnaly just to be edgy a'd show the world their endless faggotry. I hate snowflale clans as much as I hated hipsters in 2010
Is the OST gonna live up to the original?
youtube.com
Kek, what a faggot
god I wish that were me
He is, but God would just return him to his unlife.
Somebody should make an image for those who want to get into other VTM shit
Like tabletop and card games
Based tzimisce.
Tremere are already confirmed though
I hate snowflake bloodlines before hipster became a thing.
Whoever came up with the Trujah deserves to hang
8-9
Start with the v20 or revised corebook.
Read the clanbooks of the clans you like.
It's Paradox, I wouldn't be surprised. I hope they draw some inspiration from Mankind Divided in fleshing out the game so it at least can get over the 40 hour mark.
I don't care that they will offer free races if the game itself isn't large enough in scale to truly offer some variance. I want to be able to accidentally miss quests and small hidden vents.
I'm not even daring to dream, it would be a Christmas miracle if it was half as gud. I won't give up on based Rik though.
Thanks for the heads-up, I don't think it'll be shown in the game though.
why is her design so good?
>Whoever came up with the Trujah
Do you need both Camerilla and Anarch books?
What is bad about Trujah? They just seem like spergs with a differently colored celerity discipline. Is there something about them that attracts asshole players?
Will there be spooks?
Caine in WoD reminds me of that Christian Myth of the wandering Jew.
The one that said cynically to Christ while he was on His way to the calvary, "Go faster, Jesus, go faster; why dost thou linger?"
Christ turned slowly and said" I go... but thou shalt tarry till I come."
Its an type of narrative renunciation of the redeemer or the guide. By rejecting a higher spiritual calling, you become imprisoned to the material world. Hedonism, pain, etc.
So we know about Brujah, Tremere, and will most likely also have Ventrue and Toreador. What are you guys thinking will be the fifth clan? Malkavians or Nosferatu?
Just read the books.
V20 core is probably the worst starting point this side of Time of Judgment.
It's basically just an encyclopedia of powers and clans with minimal fluff.
Also outdated at this point ruleswise
>People always talk about how scary this is
>When Grout's house is the true horror kino
I would guess so. Moreso than in 1 anyways.
Lasombra with Malkavians as future DLC.
Samedi
What's the difference between VTM and VTR? I've never played the tabletop game but i'd love to get into it sometime, where should one begin?
Also, are there novels based on this setting?
V5 Camarilla and are 95% setting and fluff. I literally don't remember what's in the old guide to anarchs/cam books
I read 20e last week, currently reading lore of the clans, and will be reading v5 afterwards. I disagree with you completely.
VTR is a completely new game in what they called the New World of Darkness they made with new clans. Everything about it imo sucked ass which is why they've sort of gone back to oWoD with VTM.
I was mostly aroused by the she-ghost
Also can you actually free her?
VTR is part of a completely distinct setting
> bedroom
> private bathroom
> kitchenette
> shitty
t. definitely not a millennial.
Gangrel. Malk/Nosf/Lasombra are DLC in that order.
There is clan called saturday in french?
>Nosferatu band
>doesn't do clan Nosferatu
How does this hold up Yea Forums? If I enjoyed Planescape Torment's and Arcanum's gameplay, is this tolerable? How are the "choices"?
I somehow doubt Gangrel will be in the game on launch considering there's a Season of the Wolf DLC.
They'll give you information about the changes in V5, the second inquisition etc. They're more of a compilation of short stories than anything. I especially enjoyed the Camarilla one, whereas the Anarch expansion made me feel like as if I was reading the diary of a 18 year old guy who just learned about politics. It has some good parts like the Lucerne Commune though.
Etymology
From Old French samedi, from Vulgar Latin *sambatum and *sambati dies, from Latin Sabbatī diēs, variant of diēs Sabbatī (“day of the Sabbath”), from sabbatum, from Ancient Greek σάββατον (sábbaton) (Modern Greek: Σάββατο (Sávvato)), from Hebrew שַׁבָּת (shabát). See also sabbat, chabbat.
It's the cute nerd plus the goat pale/brunette/blue eyes combination. That she still wears glasses despite not needing them and being strong enough to overpower fully grown men while weighing 110-20 lbs tops also evokes the librarian who will step on your benis while telling you to be quiet vibe.
yes, theyre a haitian voodoo styled clan
The name comes from Baron Samedi
I dislike Lore of the clans.
I'd recommend reading the revised clan books instead.
Also I recommend BJD before v5 as that's the metaplot development into v5
Yeah, another Capadocian offshoot. Haitian zombie vampires necromancers. They are also the largest bloodline.
Getting Nocturne flashbacks.
Such a nice forgotten horror game.
Worst clan ever designed, jfc
This shit is so overhyped, it's not even funny, sure it had a few creepy moments but it I wasn't pissing myself like all these other people claim. For me, Grout's mansion was really the big artistic highlight of the game. After awhile in the mansion I became lost, the doors and pathways began to not make any sense. It was something like three in the morning and in my sleep deprived state I truly felt like I was delving into the depths of madness and when I finally escaped the mansion, I felt like a tremendous burden had been lifted off my shoulders. Good level.
But Nosferatu and Malkavian don't make any fucking sense for being allowed for first time runs nor do they make sense in terms of being voluntary diablerie choices by any already sane thinblood.
Let me tell you something about Toreador
>Guys, can you see it? Ocean, cloudless sky, full moon night... isn't that just beautiful?
>God fucking damn it, user! Don't!
>toreador failed saving throw
>final death by sunrise
Every fucking time.

The clans are shittier in VTR and there's more of a focus on bloodlines. Also bee vampires.
I think you responded to the wrong post
>I dislike Lore of the clans.
>I'd recommend reading the revised clan books instead.
Can you say why? I'm a bit of a ways into already, on the Giovanni chapter. I enjoyed the Assamite chapter quite a bit but the rest has been meh at worst.
Trujah have all the good and wise vampire mommies though.
The most popular theorized 5th clan besides Gangrel is Nosferatu and Malk. What the fuck is this if not Nosf/Malk/Gangrel.
owo
>bee vampires.
...what?
Trujah are fine just ignore anybody who thinks they should be playable
what about this screams Nos or Malk?
Lasombra
Lasombra
I saw someone bend themselves into a knot saying it was Lasombra because they wouldn't be strong enough in the Camarilla to warrant a skyscraper like the Venture.
Is the Anarch one the one with that Rudi shit that keeps getting posted? lol
nothing about it implies lambrosa either
Bump, what do you guys think of Vampire Masquerade Redemption?
what about it implies Malk or Nos?
Good story and characters, completely fucking braindead combat.
Nosf - It's an abandoned warehouse (retards)
Malk - It's an abandoned mental hospital
Gangrel - It's an abandoned warehouse
Lasombra - Look at those shadows
It's hard to describe but for the clans I like the most it's just a massive step back from the revised book. And the good parts are mostly segments copied and sometimes not even rephrased from the clanbooks.
Especially noticeable with Malks.
But then I've never read all clan books or sections, only those that interest me
I hate it. Only evil ending guarantees that PC won't get cucked
They'd hate it for portraying vampires as petty faggots who can't get their shit together to get rid of the Antediluvians and as degenerates who never fall in love, get married, and kiss while holding hands before going to bed every morning
using this logic it could be literally anything
It could be Nagaraja for fucks sake
Why Lasombra have the hottest girls?
Btw, is there a chance we'll see Lucita?
They're affiliated with le super secret Tal'mahe'Ra sect and that makes them automatically worse than even than regular Brujah.

The usual image is a loresheet in v5 core, the Rudi's army is one spread in the anarch book.
I mean, pick one of the 4. None of them are great. Nosferatu is the most delusional at this rate, it doesn't make any sense why it wouldn't just be a sewer. Neither Malk or Nosf are good at all for starter clan gameplay, nor do they make any sense for voluntary diablerie. Gangrel could work but the DLC points to them and I don't know why they wouldn't make the image like an exterior alleyway. Lasombra could work but they're already a bit similar to the Ventrue and as we know them they don't exactly fit in this sort of run down scenery other than the shadow idea. Pick your poison I guess. Any other clans are just too out there.
Don't forget all the other special children in the TMR.
>Baali
>old clan Tzmisce
>Nagaraja
Or that they start at 10th generation meaning they can buy down to 5th at Chargen.
Also you're kind of leaving out why everyone hates them which is mostly based on the early stuff like DSOTBH
>tfw no Lasombra gf who tickles you with her shadow tentacles
Camarilla aren't a race, you're thinking of Ventrue which are sure to be in the game. As for Sabbat, you mean the Tzimisce, which would be crazy if you could play as them in game but lore-wise the Sabbat have been wiped out.
>What's the point of playing Tremere when you can use telekinesis now which is cooler than blood magic?
because you'll get both
>mfw this is Lasombra and you can hop between those shadows
There is literally nothing wrong with Malk or Noss first playthrough.
Also it's not like there'll be 5 staked vampires you can choose between.
what you become probably depends on what clan you do the most favors so the, are willing to accept you
When is the release date of that slipcase set?
>Camarilla aren't a race
Um, no sweetie, and please refrain from any more Masquerphobia
By and modern game dev standard there is almost everything wrong with a forst time Malk ot Nos playthrough. None of your last 2 sentences change my point. Nobody would willingly submit to insanity in lore. Makes more sense to write a special scenario in dlc.
Yeah, I like the Nos, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they didn't want to redesign the whole game around people reacting to them in a freaked out way.
Maybe as DLC? Maybe not?
>special scenario in dlc.
Absolutely a guaranteed way to get people not to buy this game. Actually playing as a Malk or Nos is a dealbreaker, having to write in a tailored experience separate from the story and characters of the actual game? That would never satisfy, and it would start this game launch it at the very least controversy.
This.
Ancient Koldunic Sorcery > "tell me what's next alien sex"
If I had to guess the 2 Free clan DLCs are going to be Malk and Nos to implement that unique play through
You're a bottom feeding Thinblood, you take whatever opportunity you get. Because chances are you'll never get a second
When will you self important fools realize you're not the target audience for a game of this size.
7 or 8.
I love the first game, I love the general premise, I love that they brought back the old writer and composer, etc.
But realistically I think I should try to go in with wary optimism. It's been over a decade, things change, and people just expecting a perfect follow-up of the buggy classic we got all those years ago are probably going to be disappointed.
>mfw that power is six dots
>mfw we /7th gen/ now
I guess they would work just as well as a New Game+ style of playthrough if they really want things to be different for them in particular.
Yes, I'm sure the fact that literally every other member of vampire society talks about them as if they're utter trash will help reinforce in your malleable mind that they're a good fit for you amongst 4 other possible choices. I don't disagree it would make sense for the player, but you're fucking lying to yourself if you think that would come off as anything other than completely contrived for a thinblood outside of maybe being dominated into it.
As for V5, it's Level 5 "Shadow Step".

God, I wish that was me.
There's a Ventrue bloodline in Requiem whose bodies house bees. Their vitae is a mix of blood and honey that completely brainwashes whoever drinks it forever
>the target audience meme
Do you want to know why Bloodlines is a valueable IP? I'll give you a hint: It's not because of the tabletop. Bloodlines 1 was kept alive and is remembered at all today because of a dedicated fan community. If you cut out the favourite content of those people, the Malk and Nos runs, your going to generate controversy and at the very least a not ideal launch market, and as the business model here seems to be DLC, you really need those initial sales. So why wouldn't you include the most iconic and played clans in your game? Unless the crunch time is actually criminal, there should be dev time enough for this.
>blinfinitylines 2
what did they mean by this
I only read v20 corebook & V5 and its expansions, along with few wiki articles on individuals. Please elaborate on DSOTBH?
>get bullied by people who agree with me because they didn't read my post

Agreed. Personally i think Nos will happen for sure.
>It's not because of the tabletop.
That's where you're wrong.
Vlad and Isabella are surprisingly wholesome and unironically the only people worth rooting for in the old setting
Feelsthinbloodman
Sounds like fun.
So is everyone ignoring the fact that your character is a thin-blood, aka a super diluted bloodline, and you somehow not only empower yourself to be stronger but somehow transition fully into another clan?
Do any of the rulebooks (V5?) cover this being a possible thing? It's either Caine or Diablerie, or plot magic.
What, you think the tabletop is why we are getting BL2? Didn't it literally stop publishing for a time?
Yes, the WoD tabletop is one of the most popular universes out there.
What the fuck is the point of these threads? I rarely come here and every time I do you all shit on the potential of the game and that's all you do.
What's worse is how you blatantly spoil all the cool mysterious that are important for playing the games by listening to wiki fags trying tk interpret info and give you playground knowledge.
You're supposed to play it blind. You're going to play the game with built in prejudice, expectations, you'll be presumptuous and bored.
If you want to play this game then get out now and wait for it to come out. There's nothing in these threads but meta spoilers that ruin your enjoyment of the games.
>Diablerie
I hold thin (heh) hope.
>Be Mage Chad
>Find Caine doing whatever with his group of leeches
>Burn them all with sunbeams
>Fling caine into the sun
Easy. Why hasn't anyone done this
it's a $hill thread for the sequel
Also how are they going to handle this?
Maybe there just genuinely turns out to be a way to strengthen your bloodline and it will just cut to a screen where you choose your bloodline. I can't see them doing it any other way besides, I just feel like it's a pretty weird design.
Why did they have to make everyone a thinblood, why not just make it about finding out who sired you and a bunch of other vampires?
So many questions.
>get flung 7x harder into the sun
nice going dipshit
in v5 everyone is a thin blood and the only way to lower your generation is via diablerie. In short tin bloods and diablerie are the new hotness
I want to have a stimulating conversation with Damsel and respectfully disagree with her world views!
>turns out Caine is still alive
>God flings you into the Sun seven times
Nothing personal kiddo.
Yeah we got over the diablerie thing and most of the thread has been clan stuff. In V5, the Cammy's have become so desperate that they are now press-ganging thin-bloods, and to keep them loyal are dangling authorized diablerie, so it does have a basis in lore. As for how: In the mass thin-blood siring we are going to be a part of, there are going to be seven other survivors known as the 'unsanctioned seven'. Presumably during the game, blood hunts are going to be called and we are going to compete against them to diablerize Kindred, and I guess we can choose to accept or reject this depending on the clan.
Thread has a purpose as long as we are still getting info on clans and such. Obviously you don't wander into a thread like this as a person completely new to the WoD, and if you do then and the very least we can say to them 'Install the fucking game first'.
Really? I play tabletop and I barely here about it, although maybe its an American thing. Although if your going down that route: BL1 has far more international name recognition then the WoD brand.
That sounds stupid. How would that even work?
What tabletop universes are bigger than WoD?
It took all the mages sun mirrors and a magical nuke to simply weaken Ravnos back into torpor
Nah he ded. God forgave him in a story before v5 came out
>flinging one of the literal sons of God into the son
You wouldn't get away with it. There are powers beyond.
The approachability takes priority. It's why you start as a thinblood, its why they are only allowing 2 disciplines from a clan, and it's why this game won't have ways in which you can accidentally fuck your playthrough over like in the first. Cutting out what you have deemed highly anticipated content is a non issue. Repackaging them as a highly anticipated free DLC is almost just straight up a better option for both audiences. It makes you fuckers water at the mouth for a little longer, and allows the rest to experience the game once at least once with now a new way to spice up their playthroughs. You people don't seem to understand why moving the most popular clan to free DLC is simply a better marketing strategy. You also seem to suggest that the removing Malk or Nosf from the start will cause controvery, but one of those is already out. We have 3 left, and if you look at the placeholder images neither of those clans are going to be replacing the very obvious Toreador and Ventrue. The controversy would have already been spun by your logic, on some level. The vast majority of the target audience are indifferent to the base game inclusion of either Malk or Nosferatu. It's that simple. You will not affect pre order numbers, and everybody else is going to be having their cake and be none the wiser to your contempt when the game releases. You dimwitted, self important morons are going to get your fill whenever they announce whatever that 5th clan will be. Your retaliation and frustration will culminate into absolutely nothing of significance.
>N-nosferatu fags are delusional!
You had better be in these threads next week so I can LAUGH at you.
*Obfuscates behind you*
So everyone panicked after Gehenna was found out to be cyclical and started mass embracing. Also humans pretty much know kindred exist and there is another crusade happening. Whats happened now is the kindred community is full of thin bloods. Clans will reward troublesome full vampires as diablerie for rewards if you gain their trust

Not even part of the debate, but gee, who even speaks like that? Self important moron indeed.
I want an angry blowjob from Damsel.
Nosferatu have a rep for being earnest and telling things as they are, not a pretentious clan compared to most others. A lot of street smarts and the wisdom of the person watching from the sidelines and not getting in the thick of trouble.
Brujah shits
I wouldn't see why not. Ventrue would take Dominate and Fortitude easily. I wonder what else Toreador are going to get though
I really liked the part in the Gehenna sourcebook where Abel’s ghost comes back to say he forgives Caine and Caine just tells him to fuck off
Isabella is amazing. I would be lewding her non-stop if I didn't respect Vlad and their relationship so much.
This actually sounds kind of dope.
I should probably read V20
>Hey you see this character? Here's a detailed list of shit about him
>Hey do you want a detailed list of every major event that happened over the last 200 years?

Amazing, if your idea of playing as a fresh vampire who is new to everything but somehow pulled up the white wolf wiki and poured over everything and not letting story games tell a story you're fucking yourself.
But fuck you, I hope you don't enjoy shit. I know you won't, it's pretty much guaranteed.
Well, in the hopes of not getting to deeply into replying to a post like that, we shall see.
Toreador have no real distinct niche, which seems to be what the devs are looking for in the starting clans. A unique role to make each playstyle different. Venture will likely be the social/diplomat route over Tories since Dominate has more possibilites over presence in gameplay.
Based Vladchads
LaCroix did EVERYTHING wrong.

Yeah, i thought the same, however we've only seen two real clans outside Thinbloods yet, so maybe they will be ok with repeating powers? I don't know, kinda doubt it, with less clans it will be more about who does different but cool things. Reason why i think we will still hear the annoucement of Nos and Gangrel.
No tabletop games with the possible exception of D&D have any mainstream penetration. Even Warhammer 40K is totally unknown to normies. Bloodlines on the other hand is fairly well known to video gamers, and by that fact alone has a far larger audience than the rest of WoD put together.
Yeah campaigns are all about befriending people with influence towards the sect/clan you want to aid. For example Therese is still Camarilla loyal while Jeanette is Anarch loyal. Befriending either helps with that sect
>if you know things about the setting the game is ruined
>Even Warhammer 40K is totally unknown to normies.
Let's not get too carried away.
>went to a thread for a tabletop rpg turned video game series and got BTFO by people posting about either the rpg or game
It absolutely is. The idea that Hardsuit Labs or Paradox will care about disgruntled nossies is ridiculous.
I'm gonna make a melee Tremere and nobody can stop me

Is this how people with low IQs rationalize their stupidity?

I guess you could rush thaumaturgy up to blood shield and try but your physical stats cant be placed high enough to reliably damage and tank like a gangrel or brujah

En garde, Toreador. You vainglorious, narcissistic poseur! How i loathe that determination of your kind to belie your true nature with Paris fashions and pomp. You are a dead thing - a creature of the shadows. Start acting like one.
I think he also has some unique dialogue for every different clan, which is really cool. Wish more characters had that variety as it makes new playthroughs feel unique each time.
There won't be both Tories and Ventrue, they have too much overlap. Only one will be in as the Social/Diplomat playstyle.

What have you been up tonight, Yea Forums?
>debofnight.andcuriouser.com
Add me to the screencap if you haven't already. They're following a traditional Fighter/Mage/Thief approach with Brujah and Tremere filling the first two positions and Nosferatu is the best candidate for filling the thief position. They'll have Obfuscate & Animalism for obvious reasons.
Give-a me one thousand ghosts.

Wow you are a slow one. That user didn't give any opinion as to what they thought of it, just a logical observation of what the devs are doing and have said they are doing. Why are Lasombra posters so low IQ and small brained, sewer chads?

>Good evening Deb.
Imagine being so DESPERATE to have your knock off Ventrue in that you associate these haughty ruler wannabes with a garbage filled hallway

The last one is obviously going to be Nosferatu.
Where did you get the idea that I was happy with the design approach they've decided on? I was simply making an observation based on what we have seen so far. I bet you're going to play as a Toreador first faggot
Epicurus was a tumblr-tier retard
>I'll put Epic in my name, the normies will love it
The Lasombrafags are gonna be the saddest. Malks, Gangrels, and Nos will eventually make it the game in some form, either in the main game or in DLC. There's no guarantee Lasombra(or any clan outside the core 7) will even make it as NPCs
Wtf I love Susan now
I really con't understand the lasombra meme. Personally I think it's Gangrel, because it looks like an abandoned place on the outskirts of town; perfect for a loner. It could also be Malkavian, though I don't really buy that. I doubt it's Nosferatu because they're the "sewer rats" and that's clearly not a sewer because there's a window.
Can you uncover that bit of information without being a Malkavian?
I think the devs mentioning Lasombra once or twice on stream has given it completely outsized creditability
Nosferatu don't necessarily have to use sewers as their haven. An abandoned dilapidated building serves that purpose just the same and that's the impression I get from that image. Besides all the disciplines have two powers at least and Obfuscate with cloak of shadows & mask of a thousand faces will even make it easier to use such building as their haven.
>now
The root word for epic is epos, meaning poem or song.
The epi- in Epicurus is a prefix meaning assisting or defending.
Toreador is the most likeable clan. Also they've explcitly stated abilities are combat/movemoment/social. If you're going to break down archetypes into anything it should be that.
That's true, but the images are meant to be strong hints for the clan that's being introduced. The Toreador haven looks cozy and fashionable albeit with an old fashioned streak, as befits the high-society vibe. Ventrue is a fancy office on a Skyscraper. Brujah haven gives off the barely-functioning piece of garbage vibe their clan has. Tremere has some arcane symbols on the floor. Why would they represent the Nosferatu with something that's merely plausible instead of something that players instantly associate with the Nossies?
Let's not forget that many Nosferatu build their own underground fortresses, it doesn't have necessarily to be connected to the sewers. Hell, in Brazil they have the Amaganti Warren, a huge underground fortress. They are very proud about it.
I just want my big titty Malkavian, is that so much to ask for
>dilapidated
youtube.com
yes you misogynist
I instantly associated it with Nosferatu. It's a run down utility tunnel/service exit. Nossies are all about being rats behind the walls, running the hidden refuse filled paths and delapidated sprawl everyone else forgot about. Nossies are infamous as intel gatherers, if they just set up shop in sewers they wouldn't be so sucessful as they are.
Literally everything else is so obvious they're basically 100% certain. Why would Nosferatu be so ambiguous?
Why does she look like a high yellow mulatto

It really doesn't strike me as Toreador, it's too plain and boring for one's taste.
1 until I see gameplay
Couldn't it be Giovanni as well?
They wouldn't cut Ventrue, would they? Basically the poster-boys for the classic Vampire experience.
Just a thought- maybe with clans like the Nos or Malks, we join *by* being sired, as opposed to the other clans which we diablerize.
>Intelligent and well reasoned out post

I read up a bit on Koldunic Sorcery and that shit sounds amazing, very flavorful. Wish it'd be in Bloodlines 2
>Brujah page on the website is down for some reason
I wanted to double check if they actually had celerity or not to see the likelihood of Toreador being cut. I remember it not being called Celerity on the page, which I found suspect.
Fuck vamps. Praise the sun.
Under no circumstance was a staple and normie-level clan like Toreador ever in the possibility of being left out.
too bad it's still ultimate pre-alpha tier footage
I don't think they would bother with creating a new beginning episode that lasts few hours only for two clans. I also don't understand why you wouldn't to become the either clan as a thinblood. Becoming a "true" vampire and having access to "true" vampiric disciplines will greatly increase your chances of survival in a time where the Second Inquisition happening on all fronts and Thinbloods being hunted for sport by the other kindred. Having the insight or being able to use obfuscate at the cost of your "sanity" and appearance sounds like a much better deal to than to be on the receiving end of some hunter's stake, or worse another kindred's.
Might be changing the embed system for the vids to stop leaks like yesterday
Different settings. I know nWoD gets a lot of shit, but frankly I had a blast playing through a game set in Chicago. I think it ultimately it's going to be down to your storyteller and how they handle the lore, the new setting is far from unsalvageable. Also, funnily enough the general power-structure dynamics of Chicago in nWoD are pretty reminiscent of how LA was in Bloodlines.
R-Ravnos bros...
Out of contex question but what would be the closest clan/bloodline to the Bloodsuckers from Darkest Dungeon? Some form of fucked up Gangrel bloodline?
I just want True Brujah desu
also the ability to take out of clan disciplines.
Tzimisce
Maybe, but would a thinblood EVER choose to be a Nos? Malkavian even is a strech, would a thinblood choose literal insanity? I mean if the alternative is actual death then maybe, but eh depends how they do it.
Is Vampyr worth playing for diet Bloodlines or what?
I feel like we may be assuming a lot on how it will actually be done in game. Maybe the PLAYER chooses but the character doesn't or something.
It's pretty cool. Free on Xbox Gamepass so you could play it for nine dollars.
I for one would find pretty fun to be a Nos.
The Brujah link is still up, all you need to do is to change the filename into a different clan. This is the link you get from bloodlines2.com by right clicking into videos.

Does Deb have a canon appearance?
I saw some video mashup ages ago where someone dubbed her voice over Livewire from the old Batman series, and the design kind of mentally stuck with me.
Why do you treat being a nosferatu as a bad thing? Sure they sire people just to screw with them from time to time like Imalia from the first game but you can't deny its benefits, again look at Mitnick from the first game again.
Besides in the game you are not some mortal going to a department store to get embraced after reading a hefty catalogue, you're some thin blooded monster desperately trying to survive and becoming a gen 13 SIGNIFICANTLY increases your chances of survival, Nosferatu or not.

Very little overlap between the two. That being said, Celerity and Auspex already have been dished out to Brujah and Tremere respectively, so if we assume they want to make each Clan have completely unique disciplines with zero overlap Toreadorefags may be in for a rude awakening.

Shouldn't this be a Nos or Insect Gangrel thing?
Why do so many girls love VTM?
While some Nosferatu do sire beautiful stuck up people as revenge, others sire the dregs of humanity for whom becoming a Nossie would actually be a step up. Like starving homeless with no one, etc
It's pretty anti-onions I'm going to be honest.

That would be a fun way of doing it.
Yeah I guess Nos would be a viable pick. But compared to say, becoming a venture, wouldn't it kinda suck?

Which? Like I know Venture like ambition, toreador like artists etc. I think the most likely to sire someone like that would be Malk, and most of the time they abandon them anyway.

Magnificent.
There are also spider ventrue that fuse with their havens.
>The most bizarre relationships can occur between Nosferatu and mortals. Even the most hard-bitten Nosferatu may discover a weakness for a certain human or types of humans. Living as they do in places many would consider to be Hell, there is a long tradition of the Nosferatu offering help to others like them. There are many, many cases of cruel Kindred preying on homeless people, children or mental patients who have inexplicably been beaten black and blue and left somewhere as a warning to others. Cliché as it may be, many orphanages, scholarships and self-help organisations owe at least part of their funding to the Sewer Rats. Living in the gutter, there are a lot of Nosferatu who want to help those who still can get out of it. Unlike the Toreador and the Ventrue, they seldom if ever brag about their accomplishments, and most outside the clan are unaware of them.
That's Prince Cross, the stern and puritanical but not really evil prince of Seattle. His childe (the daddy Ventrue from the trailer) can potentially usurp him with the player's help.
I like rpgs where you can play as a girl and seduce people
>The Nosferatu tend to embrace two classes of people: first are those for whom the Embrace is a step up, such as the homeless, the hopelessly antisocial, derelicts, the mentally ill, the emotionally damaged, the flawed, vagrants or other people at the bottom of the totem pole, often out of a feeling of kinship with them.[5] The second class are those for whom the Embrace is a step down, such as beauty queens or people from privileged backgrounds. Nosferatu are notorious for revenge Embraces, and the resulting Cleopatras often lead miserable lives within the clan.
Ventrue in V5 decided to take the matter into their own hands when things have went down with the Inquisition and two clans leaving Camarilla, hence they now occupy a more frontliner approach. Which explains why their Clan symbol got a sword in V5.
Based on that Dominate & Fortitude will be available in their toolkit, with Presence going in the way of Toreador.
I'm sure the game will turn out just fine.
They have great writers on board.
Nigga, do you expect me to read any of that?
I thought the new Jack was our cool stoner neet friend from the trailer, drinking blood out of a fucking solo cup.
Lets see what articles she actually wrote years ago.
Very strange, she actually reviewed the game multiple times as a "journalist". I'm sure she didnt receive money back then.
here's a smaller version if your soi eyes can't read the whole thing
He is just trying to bait for some answers after the long thread he missed, just ignore it.
Japan bad!
Eroge bad!
Too young woman bad!
Heterosexuality a downer!
>Sequel to an SJW game is SJW
Who could've possibly seen this coming?
Okay nevermind I'm retarded. For a reason I misread grills as drills and totally have forgotten that Camarilla puts an unhealing mark on the thinblooded vampires by burning aka grilling them.
Sorry anons.
It's not healthy to be this mad.
Christ there are an awful lots of lies and
>implications
in that greentext.
this is exactly what i'm expecting based on what they've said
15 hours is probably too generous
> game makes a few quips at stuffy old politicians in power
> /pol/: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH HOW COULD THEY DO THIS! I'M TRIGGERED! ESSJEYDABLYUU IS RUINING GAMING REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
This but unironically.
I have 40 hours into it. It's the exact opposite of VTMB. Good combat, but bad everything
I know that look from somewhere.
Anyway, stay in denial lol
This happened too many times to me already, I'm not going to get dissapointed this time.
I still don't get the /pol/ boogeyman. They don't even play video games there
imagine being a dumb /pol/lack unable to enjoy things because opinions of others
The typical /pol/ thing is: read some headlines, connect some dots of people in the project, scream SJW at announcement and release (in the meantime just ruin a few threads), file under 'cuckz' then move onto the next 'outrage'.
>t. ResetEra
I got to /pol/ for happening and I have never seen that board make threads about shit like this. When threads do pop up, they get deleted or moved to Yea Forums
Also, this is not even the first time I've seen this shit. back then Yea Forums, Yea Forums, and /r9k/ were the past boogeymans
has anyone posted that picture of the clan descriptions and recommendations for VtMB? I forgot to save it
also how long would you say VtMB is? I've been meaning to start playing it for a long time
Do I need for the table top game?
Looks like there is a specific type for VTM?
~30 hours.
First half you won't want to stop playing, second half your gonna need noclip for some sections for how grindy and shit they are. Mayube 30-40 hours.
Solid 7, I say.
I'm interested to see what they do for it. If they have good writing, dialogue, and fun hubs where you can climb around and bite people, that's all I need.
If there's a good modding scene, this will be 10/10. But those are hard to find. Every Dev promises mod tools, but a lot of the time were left waiting.
8 currently. When/if Nos and malks are confirmed for DLC, I'll be dissapointed to a 6.
Nos won't be DLC, but Malks will 100% they only have ten months.
thanks guys, I appreciate it.
I want to believe, but I get more pessimistic as time goes on.
>making sure only somebody of the same sex replaces you when you leave a job
How the fuck do people not see this as anything other than evil
Or, you know, one of the lead writers is openly sexist.
