Vampires have plenty of good games. Why do werewolves have none?

Watching a few of them try to play the Network test was cancerous. Never changing weapons or blood codes or strategies. Just ineffectively trying to R1 things to death and then dying.

>GE3 died for this
But GE3 turned out fine?
It even has more FREE content to come.

It's got a lot of signs of being super rushed though

Why does Souls attract these kind of people?

How would a proper werewolf game play? Would it be better to transform at will or be on a time limit?

From the very start, you'd have to decide whether the werewolf state is supposed to be a good thing or a bad thing, and then work it out from there

Like, do you want to be empowered can go on a rampage, or do you want to keep your curse under wraps and not arouse suspicion

Vampires are basically humans with a blood fetish, so you don't really need to do anything strange to make a vampire game. Just make a regular game, be liberal with the red paint, and bam: instant vampire video game. They aren't even always about blood or anything past the aesthetic; sometimes they character is just a "vampire" because they're as hard to kill as every other video game protagonist, they're just bringing it to more attention.

By contrast, werewolves are defined by transforming. There hasn't really been any fiction about "werewolf is just human with super senses" so even if you did that, it wouldn't necessarily be known as a werewolf game. So any werewolf game needs to be about transforming, and that makes it kind of difficult because you're a lot narrower in scope. You're always going to have fur, and claws, and slashing stuff up as a wolf, so unless that's the game you want it will be hard to make.

Also, the N64 Castlevania game (the second one) featured a werewolf as the main character. Arguably Twilight Princess as well.

I'm so glad Code Vein had a beta so I know not to waste money on this garbage and just fap to the art for free.

I enjoyed it enough that I pre-ordered it.

Surely it shouldn't take more than GE3, right?

Based. Furries all need to die.

>vampire niggas get cool powersets
>werewolf guys are restricted outside of transforming
But I'd play a werewolf action game with partial transformations and a full one being the equivalent to DTing

Aren't there vampire video games like that?

Werewolf the Apocalypse does that in the tabletop game, so hopefully the video game based on it does it too, could open up some interesting gameplay scenarios.

You could make it your own and add a progression system with mutations

You can play Streets of Rogue as werewolf.

I bet elden ring is going to not be souls like at all while babylons fall is going to be platinums take on souls combat

Dunno, I think they run on different engines?
Not sure. GE3 did run good for me.

IIRC, it's an "open world" with Souls combat, but with horse riding.
I like Code Vein's combat system a lot so far, and the chuuni-ness is also a bonus and Io's tits are great

chuuni-factor being so high is one of my main reasons to buy it.

It's been so long since a game has been this edgy in this kind of way.

Can't wait to see all the other variations of the Blood Veils. The white ones in the E3 demos are my favorites so far

I liked the ivy veil in the network test.

The Ivy is the best so far imo. Helps that Io also uses it.

I remember Yea Forums seething over an article calling Code Vein "Trashy Anime Souls"
This is exactly why I like it

Surprisingly, there haven't been any articles complaining about the designs of the female characters.

>designed by a woman
checkmate

>Who is Bayonetta

The problem with werewolves, as often seen in a lot of games and RPGs that have them is that they're always portrayed as being 2 dimensional i.e. powerless human and unga bunga rage beast.

Vampires simply provide a lot more gameplay options as well as being aesthetic as hell.

Attached: 00128390213.jpg (1280x720, 92K)

Have the Hitler one?

There are plenty of these kinds of design which are made by woman and still get shit on by western media.

When will these "journalists" be fucking removed?

I genuinely do like Io's design outside of sex appeal. Something to it feels comforting in a hobo sort of way.

Attached: Sitting Io - transparent.png (1182x777, 586K)

When people stop supporting them. There's pretty much no reason to listen to them anymore with piracy letting you try anything for free and YouTube letting you watch unedited gameplay, but most people haven't realized this yet. Or realized that the majority of journalists are essentially the marketing department of game companies at best or social manipulators at worst.

I hope one day we will be rid of these parasites

Just wait.

>Clearly not a single female person was consulted on this.
It still baffles me how they still do literally ZERO research.

They just can't possibly believe that another woman would want to make an attractive female character. It's silly

Getting more people to accept piracy and see its benefits will make them see the issues with relying on a third party for information.

Unironically use Skyrim werewolf mechanics. Have cursed items which can help you control aspects of your transformation (ring of hircine) or modify abilities in your transformed from (like the amulets and talismans you can find in Skyrim). The werewolf abilities and transformations were one of the few things the game did really well imo.

something about losing control while being a werewolf makes it much less interesting as a playable thing

meanwhile, vampires can be evil sorcerers and shit, start cults, be freaky night creatures, all while maintaining a vague resemblance to humanity

werewolves are boring

We live in an era where the US President can lie several times on stage unabashedly and it's basically just a Monday.

There is a chinese BR game called Don't Even Think that has you play as werewolves . It's pretty fun, although simple. They're still updating it. But it's fun to turn into a huge wolf and eat bodies and slam niggas into the ground. They even have the human forms before you turn be extra strong and fast to make them stand out from the regular humans at the beginning of the games. I think it's worth a play for some werewolf action. I know BR games are cancer but I'm sure this will scratch some were-itch you have

>politician
>lying
Imagine my shock

This. Werewolves are inherently less fun to play as than vampires because werewolves revolve around taking away control from you, forcing you to turn into a beast. If you can just manually transform, it takes away the uniqueness of being a werewolf and just makes you a limited shape shifter

Modern vampire stories play into a lot of interesting discussions about the human condition.

>Addiction, and how it hurts people around you, but you can't stop
>Asking "what is worth losing over getting power?"
>Survivor's guilt, losing loved ones when you are unharmed
>Forlorn love and romance that will never succeed
>The endless cycle of politics, the only way to stop people from playing games with you is to play the game too
>Betrayal, and how your friends could be plotting behind your back

Werewolf stories are
>Hey you did a bad thing, and couldn't stop yourself. Don't you feel bad?

There is no benefit to piracy, there IS a benefit to being able to get a good idea of the product before purchase. Those are two different things and there shouldn't be an excuse to steal a game to say you got to "try" it. Trusting people in this climate where people will absolutely love a game, but never support it, over spending a lot of bank on stuff they consider lower quality means that allowing people to just download it and hope they purchase afterward is always gonna be a risk not worth it.

Modern video games should do demos more. The Network test, though technically not a demo, fully convinced me to get the game since I enjoyed it so much.

Vampires get 10000 year old lolis.
Werewolves get jack shit.

Werewolf stories can be interesting too. I think vampire stories explore man’s relationship with other people. It’s all very socially focused (like all the examples you brought up). Whereas with werewolf stories they can explore man’s relationship with the natural world.
>by taking on a beastly form you literally walk in the shoes of a wild animal, experiencing the extent of human impact on the environment
>ywn play a game where a set of vampire industrialists go up against a werewolf ecofash pack.

>werewolves are just a bunch of furry hippies
>vampires are fat dudes in fancy suits and hats

The issue is that making that vertical slice is really taxing on teams much more than it was in the past. You're taking precious time out of development to make that slice, and if its recieved poorly forth sometimes things outside your hands, than you shot yourself in the foot, as well as wasted time you could have used to polish the game. The problem being that if someone releases a demo, they don't look at it from a QA perspective where you're there to try things out and give feedback, its perceived as a product they put out that you review there and then. So it's no surprise people think it's more of a sword of damocles over their heads than a boon.

So wait, when you level up you only level up your health?
Stats are only variable through the veils?
How we gonna do more damage then when the games progresses?

All of your stats go up when you level up. Your stats change depending on the Blood Veil, which can be upgraded with the Anvil, and the Blood Code, which I assume can be upgraded with Io.

Oh okay. I really like this on the go variable character progression Code Vein has going on.

I honestly love Code Vein's combat system so far, with my only complaint being the general jankiness of it. Still, I loved DaS2 so it shouldn't bother me too much.
