VTMB/Bloodlines 2

what was the reason people are saying nosferatu might not be in?
I remember it being some sjw reason but can't exactly remember

I'll be shocked if its not Nossies.

I'm not arguing that, but there's no famed Lupine hunters anywhere near Seattle.

Theyre too difficult to implement in a meaningful way, even the original VTMB failed.

That was Malkavians. The basically said they want to portray mental illness more respectfully which could just mean they'd do more research. There are bigger red flags than the mental illness portrayal thing.

Haven't heard anything like that about the Nosferatu.

yeah right
get fucked furry nigger

Is seduction used in anything else than fucking Jeanette and drinking blood from women in the bars?

Yeah in a few quests it let you circumnavigate shit. Such as seducing Chunk or the Hotel receptionist. Same thing as Persuasion. Doesnt work as much as Persuasion i think.

Well there's this. In the CbN V5 preview, The Prince of Chicago is sending a group of Camarilla Gangrel archons called the Wolf Pack to Seattle. Seattle was barely a footnote for the last twenty years in the WoD universe so this is probably some sort of game tie-in

i never played the first one before i just installed the gog version. Do i need to add any patches to make it playeable or is it fine on its own? ingame it says that its "unoficial patch 9.6" version
also any texture mod reccomendations? 2004 graphics make my eyes sore

Nice try limpdick, Ventrue are fags who take it in their butt

lmao implying
They literally said in the Ventrue pre-recorded "stream" that Mitsoda couldn't care less about V5, he largely ignored it

For chunk and the receptionist yes.
I remember you can only seduce the Giovanni girl if you are a male (she calls you a dyke if you try as a woman). And the food critic is also gay and rejects women.

Giovanni got fucked hardcore, though. Cappadocians are back.

We already got two clans with celerity.
Overlap doesn’t mean that much in this game considering the clans will have a pathetic amount of abilities. The game will be a first person shooter with a few RPG elements sprinkled on

Making love to a Giovanni is incredibly painful isn't it?

Right but I thought that was the plan. Each clan gets a signature discipline, each gets like a shared one. So maybe La Sombra could get...Fortitude or somthing, Protean, Auspex...

A Lasombra without Dominate isn't a Lasombra

>gay club

>pathetic amount of abilities
The only clan getting fucked by this so far is Tremere though since they don’t have Dominate anymore. Brujah and Toreador have 6 active powers instead of 3 buffs/debuffs from the first game, Ventrue lost 1 active power compared to the first.
As long they keep introducing actually unique powers for every discipline instead of half assed shit we got in vtmb1 I don’t see the downside

I agree that the first game had some problem with a lot of abilities being boring and bad. But instead of just cutting abilities they could have improved upon that area instead.
The devs have said that more abilities would be too hard to manage during combat, so in order words they are casualizing it which I don’t agree with.
Hopefully they’ll make up for it with interesting passive or different kind of upgrade paths for the few abilities we get

>first person shooter
>guns are throwaway, combat focus is on melee

The last clan is going to Caitiff and you'll pick up two disciplines of your choice.

So then no La Sombra, it seems. Can't give away Dominate.

But there are more active abilities for most all clans. I played as a Tremere and I understand why they'd want want less actives. Most of the dominate stuff was useless anyway (In combat at least, loved the social part of it), and I never used Auspex then.

I really have no problem with 6 (2 thinblood, 4 clan) powers being the standard, instead of in 1 where it was so... so unbalenced.

If you make a male character, and you suck the blood from a male NPC, isn't that kinda gay?

Vampires are inherently kinda gay.

..."Their signature Discipline.." Each clan page has had one discipline specifically called 'Signature'. 100% positive that means it is theirs alone.

Honestly even if the game is shut these threads are enough

>The signature discipline of Ventrue is a common discipline shared with literally 5 other clans

hmm

V5 doesn't matter, they're not bound to it at all, they've said as much. The game page says 'Signature'. They use that word on 1 discipline of each clan so far. What else could that mean?

That the devs are a bunch of hacks and the game will be shit

If I had to force Lasombra into the base game without stepping on any of other clans' arbitrary signature disciplines I'd split Obtenebration into two disciplines, Oblivion and Obtenebration, and give the former an OC shadow possession power or something that can emulate Dominate on NPCs/enemies.

But that's the thing, Lasombra won't be in the game.

I would have one focus on hiding in the shadow and using shadows to control people like puppets.
The other one focused on shadow tentacles ripping everything apart.
I’m pretty sure we’ll get Malk or Nos though.

That's why I only feed from female NPCs if I can help it

auspex and fortitude is the patrician choice. t-1000 up in this bitch.

If odds - Malk reveal
If evens - Noss reveal
If 0 Lasombra

who are these boys

My opinion on the matter doesn't really matter. The evidence says the 5th clan is Malk. Doesn't matter how much sense it does or doesn't make, the insane asylum means the last clan is Malkavian. Why the fuck are you people still debating this?

Yes. Nothing they said implies Malks won't be in. Even if they did somehow appear to imply it, it doesn't change the fact that it's an asylum. That 100% confirms that the clan is Malk. No amount of mechanic speculation will change the evidence that we already have.

That’s the whole reason, they can’t be bothered to make both.

Ackshually, in the lore, a number of Lasombra switched to the camarilla in Seattle - and these antitribu were detained in an abandoned asylum til they could be sure they weren't sabbat spies.

There's a ton of Salubri in the Sabbat, they're just not really the nice types

Look at this sweet, perfect, innocent baby boy. What did he do to deserve this? Thin-blood genocide when?

Reflection in the water though.

So what disciplines do you guys think Malks/Nossies/Lasombros/Tzimisce will get?

Attached: 1558139216727.jpg (1079x1200, 255K)

The Shaft.

Aren't the only real members of Salubri the healer caste? Rest are essentially antitribu, I thought.

There are more things to take into account when deciding player perspective other than just animating the character model. Game environments need to be built specifically with the chosen perspective in mind. Specifically interiors, need to be built in ways that will accommodate an over the shoulder camera. What players look at, how they interact with the environment, and the subsequent level of detail changes when the camera perspective shifts. Brain dead games like the Witcher 3 basically railroad you into navigating spaces and solving environmental puzzles, because the level fo detail the average player can take in decreases significantly the the perspective shifts to third person. Your IQ practically drops when you go third person. People can't look at shit in the same way they do in first person, and thus, games have to be built differently. That's the whole fucking reason games like CP2077 choose to be first person, it has fucking nothing to do with animation budget or project scope. In the case of Bloodlines 2, you could literally just fucking repurpose existing NPC animation and fit it onto the player character. Do you seriously think we aren't going to be seeing any NPC's use disciplines like Earthshock or Levitate? Those character animations will very likely exist outside of just our first person usage. It's fucking moronic to suggest that this design decision is somehow a shortcut. It's not. You underestimate the types of changes that are required to accommodate both first and third person perspective. It completely changes how you build mechanics, and while it is obviously possible to build hybrid systems, there are limits to what you can do when you are swapping perspectives mid gameplay like that. It adds limitations to player mechanics and level design. They've clearly chosen not to do that. I promise you it would be fucking easy as shit to implement the same system that was in Bloodlines 1, but believe it or not, VTMB has garbage combat.

The way it works is, the only "known" (in quotes cause basically no one knows about them) salubri still extant are the 7 salubri warriors in the sabbat. They ARE technically the antitribu, though, cause there may be some amount (up to ST first) of healer salubri around who're just completely off the grid

That’s a whole lot of bullshit defending the devs being lazy.
See RDR2 one of the most detail rich games ever made, it has seamless switching between first and third person view.

I will never understand the purpose of a character creator without being able to see the character. Frankly just need a hand customiser.

I expect the combat to be better, vampire Deus Ex style. Music should be great, dialogue/writing should be good but more generic... Darker in tone, probably not much levity. 8.5..9 out of ten. Won't have that cult classic status, no way. Probably will get a sequel though.

As far as bethesda RPGs go, I've only played the Fallouts, as well as Oblivion and Skyrim, and sure during combat I like to stay in first person, I can easily roam the world in third person.

Is it really that good? I haven't done Nosferatu or Malkavian but I know that most enemies in the later game have auspex and you can accomplish most of it with investment into sneaking

Didn't they say that one of the clans would come as a surprise?

Any VTMB-related previews this coming E3?

Yup, that was the thinblood.

The devs heavily hinted that there are going to be playable clans which were not available in vtmb1 but the whole statement was extremely vague. For all we know it could be a single new clan released as the last DLC, or it could be revealed this Wednesday. No idea

I seem to recall that they said it after the announcement, where Thinbloods were already revealed. Besides, They aren't a clan

COPE

If they make it in as (((dlc))), it should be a Tzimisce vs. Old Clan Tzimisce package with a sidequest of them seething at each other. Though it'd be hard to sell an OCT on the West Coast of the US. Then again, 99% of people playing won't know what the fuck they even are so it won't matter.
