InXile is making Bloodlines 2

One of my best friends from school got a job at inXile and they told me in confidence that they have been working on bloodlines 2. I'm very much breaking their trust here as I promised I wouldn't say anything but I sort of hope they will officially announce it now that I'm leaking it and I doubt they will be able to source it back to them.

The project is being headed up by the original director of the first game Jason D. Anderson and it was his pitch that saved the project from being cancelled. As far as I know it's their first person RPG in Unreal 5 and almost everything has been scrapped except the music by Rik Schaffer and some other assets they are reusing. He also told me its likely early 2024 as the release. That's all I know.

i know you're full of shit, but i just want this game to happen so bad

I thought this game was cancelled?? Also I like Wasteland so I hope this is true.

I am telling the truth, I honestly have nothing else to share. I'm not as worried about this game now as I think inXile can do it well.

i thought they were already busy making some steampunk rpg game after ms bought them and then you had those rumors they were pairing with obsidian to make a fallout game after ms bought bethshit.

Why? You know what’s going to happen, it’s been a complete mess since they showed the gameplay trailer.

Not even going to mention how bad the new bloodlines book is.

>i just want this game to happen so bad
so does everyone else - so long as a competent developer who still likes video games makes it, and another shithouse "developer" looking to only use it as a political soapbox.

I think steampunk RPG was just something journos were throwing around based on them redesigning their office to have a steampunk theme.

I don't not only will it be a broken pile of shit like the first one but it will also be bad even if it were to be fixed they canned the OG writers might as well throw the entire thing in the trash

i really don't see inxile working on anything
that ms doesn't already own or something new they creating for ms.

/Thread

This, I doubt MS would want them them to waste their time on an IP they don't own unless they also bought that too.

I just want Wasteland 4 filled with boomer humor

I'm getting sick of you posting a Bloodlines thread each day with a new person developing Bloodlines.
First, it was Harebrained Schemes, yesterday it was TheChineseRoom and now it's inXile.
Nobody knows who's working on it and it's going to be pozzed garbage anyway that at this stage with the development hell it's had I'll be amazed if a functioning product releases.

Okay, i have hopes again if it's true

Instead of "Beer, beer, beer!" it's going to be "Blood, blood, blood!"

I can see why you used strauss schizo

Other people say it's nu-The Chinese Room.

its never getting made and these threads are just cope of the monkey pawers

That must be pretty hard for the devs, how are they even making it!?

at this point with the pre-orders still active in peoples accounts this many years after they would be breaking major consumer laws in places like Australia and opening themselves up to massive lawsuits. It will get released in some way but probably not in any good way.

Can we have a VTM game set in Poland? What's it like there with the setting?

>inXile won't be able to capture the soul of the original
How so? All of the original devs are working under microcock now except fatsoda.

Mitsoda is responsible for writing most of the characters

I actually believe you, OP. Someone I know who worked at Paradox while Bloodlines 2 was with Hardsuit told me that people from the first game took over after Hardsuit choked.

They chose to make it a sequel to a game that Mitsoda wrote the majority of

Hmmmmm

where are trannies mentioned in this thread? you're actually obsessed. Also samefag.

>only 1 person in the world can write a sequel to blodlines
Again, you're brain is filled with worms and you're overestimating brians influence in the first game.

Better call it in

This, people underestimate that video games are the biggest industry in the fuckin world and obviously a LOT of people would have contacts that know shit. They just don't spill the beans out of courtesy or chinese whispers ruins it anyway.

Nope you’re underestimating. Mitsoda has an old interview where he listed off the characters of vtmb that he wrote. It was nearly all of them.

i got drunk with a paradox employee on a cruise around new zealand legit everyday for a week. the cunt wouldn't tell me shit though, the best i could get was to "not worry, its in good hands"

Wake the fuck up man, there is more than 1 writer that could do bloodlines justice. Autistic schizos like you are why we never get anything good, because you gatekeep it and make the entry to creating a sequel impossible to achieve without fuckery. Brian was fired and it was probably for a good reason. He's not the same person anymore, people change.

good writers dont write for video games. face it bloodlines was an oddity.

Would be kino of the highest order, but I don't believe it

Did we ever find our why Mitsoda was fired? He looks like a sex offender so I assumed it was harassment or some shit.

So it's now Xbox/PC exclusive.

Probably. The sex offenders don't have restraint so they are able to write about the dark heart of humanity that everyone craves to read about.

That would be a safe assumption. Seems like xbox wants to own or publish every western rpg,

the game also jokes about said anarchs and commies

It won't be good

I.e. it was what /pol/jak schizos aspire and delude themselves to be.

What I hate about that image is that Bloodlines made fun of BOTH sides of the political spectrum. Like yeah, that one chick is an anarcho-communist, but they went out of their way to also make her a screeching harpy retard you are supposed to point and laugh at.

Politics in Bloodlines was something to laugh at, regardless of "sides," AND it didn't preach at any point. Bloodlines isn't telling you to be a fucking communist/feminist/whatever, it included those elements not to comment on them or preach them, but just because they are reflections of the world in which the game is set.

It's also even more stupid in the WOD setting to be preaching politics when the protagonists of the game are fucking VAMPIRES. Did it ever cross these peoples minds for a second that maybe having blood sucking nightmare monsters promoting their ideology might not be a ringing endorsement?

i'm not 100% sure but i think it was confirmed him and the project director were fired over their behavior though no one was willing to specify what that meant
given the number of pink hair activists on the project it's a fair bet they got me too'd

>another night
>another "this is the studio making VTMB2!"

Wrong its CD Project RED, they swooped in and got the dev rights after it was essentially scrapped because they want the license, they were going to announce it but then the cyberpunk release chaos happened so they are just working on it in the quiet.

This is why the dev of witcher 4 switched to unreal because the staff working on bloodlines 2 have unreal experience now as its based on the unreal engine and cd project will transition them off bloodlines 2 into witcher 4.

>anyone can make it work
No. Thats like saying Obsidian can write characters.

>reliable leaker
There are no actual leakers anymore. There was that one guy a few years back who leaked every presentation for that year before it happened and then he disappeared off the internet. Any other "leakers" are part of the advertisement budget or used like dirty whores to generate hype on purpose.

It's actually the Shadowrun dev that is making it.

The average vamp doesn't care about kine let alone politics; they are walking bloodbags and that's that.

The few that do care about them are:
a) Individualists/Toreador for embracing
b) Those that try to "farm" them or use/rule over them (Ventrue)

because Mitsoda himself is a stupid idealist and he probably never would've thought he'll fall victim to them (provided that's what he got fired for)

did you play Dead State? some of the writing was embarrassing

I didn't say anyone can make it work retard, I just said more than 1 person is capable of it.

I should add CD Project dont have the license officially but they have an agreement because they took over the project, the dev was in chaos as the pre orders were high and they didnt want to scrap it because of consumer interest and they were the only big dev with rpg experience that wanted the project in a timely manner, if the game sells well they will get default first license bid on the world of darkness licensing, essentially it wont be contested unless somebody like EA/Microsoft/Ubisoft/Sony offers more for it.

This is the least likely, they are working on 2 unity projects and aren't hiring for unreal.

I hadn't seen the Harebrained Schemes thread, but I saw the Chinese Room thread and wanted to fucking hang myself at the thought of them touching Bloodlines. I know 2 is gonna be shit regardless, but that would be gut-wrenchiing to watch those hacks defile the legacy of Bloodlines.

Uh, you do realize that Brujah basically exist as a faction to promote ideologies right? Like they usually apply them to Kindred society, but their whole thing as a clan is being into radical ideologies in some form or another.

It's still kind of dumb, but on some level political extremism has always been an element of WOD.

vampire 5 is so horrible out of tune with mainline WoD it's not even funny

Revised edition vampires don't care about modern politics because 90% of the time it's just a front for one supernatural group or another, plus they're several generations removed from modern society so they can't even identify with any of it. if they do get into human politics it's just for free food or to gain influence

5th edition vampires form Marxist reading circles with Kine and care more about racism and Islamophobia than upholding the Masquarade or the Jihad or whatnot

Do you have any source or something you can share? I've been saying its CDPR for months and everyone calls me a retard and tells me to shut the fuck up. I even gave the same reasoning of no reveal due to the cyberpunk fiasco.

>and wanted to fucking hang myself at the thought of them touching Bloodlines.
Why? The Chinese Room have some of the best writing in videogames. A lot better than VTMB, that's for sure.

except originally that meant vampire politics
brujah are asshurt because they got ousted from power within the camarilla and everyone sees them as quick breeding suicidal retards

>everyone sees them as quick breeding suicidal retards
Because they are

The Brujah exist as a foil to the Ventrue all stemming back to the Carthaginian-Rome feud where the Brujah attempted to create a vampire utopia and live alongside humans

>you do realize that Brujah basically exist as a faction to promote ideologies right?

Yes but only they interact with kine that way.... and it's also why they are not well received in camarilla society.

Carthago delenda est...

>inXile
Literally the only game I'm aware of them making was the snowblind engine Bard's Tale. So that's cool I guess.

no because i heard it from a programmer i know who works for epic specially on engine related programming, office rumor essentially, all he can absolutely confirm is CDPR are 100% using unreal on more than one project.

They made the new wasteland games aswell. They are alright but 3 was pretty pozzed.

5th ed was such a fucking disaster. I'm interested in Requiem since it seems to go more into being a monster and reconciling that rather than telling me that communism is good and nazis and chuds are the root of all evils

Sure, but look at everyone who writes a world based off someone else's work, its always shit. Better to let the original guy do it, who actually cares and isn't just there for a paycheck.

inxile is a microsoft studio now, why would they do contract work for paradox?

So you haven't heard directly that it's bloodlines 2 just an educated guess? I thought it makes a lot of sense, Pawel and a lot of other devs on stream have been saying its their biggest influence and I'm pretty sure the founders are fans so I thought they would have jumped at the chance. CDPR is always looking for dark edgy IP like that.

i tried to look into it but u haven't found anything that was more appealing than OldWoD (besides not being bloated to shit)

>but look at everyone who writes a world based off someone else's work, its always shit. Better to let the original guy do it
You do know mitsoda didn't invent Vampire: The Masquerade... right user?
