Do you think itll be any fun like the first?
>i want to like this game bc i love the first but watching the gameplay it dosent feel like it has the same kind of charm.
Hopes?
>That they didnt forget what made the first so good, same feel as the first just slightly improved
Fears?
>that they forgot what made the first so good, no more sexual prescence, tries to be much bigger than it needs to be.
Do you think itll be any fun like the first?
redpill me on the first one
A great game made by a studio that went bankrupt halfway through making it. Atmospheric, fun, a good mixture of taking itself seriously and laughing at itself. It needs player patches to not be almost unplayable, but is worth the effort.
The patches are easy to install and theres quick guides on steam. I rolled into the game thinking it was gonna be janky outdated bullshit but i honestly had a good ass time with the first one and i cant explain why. Maybe the theme, or atmosphere, the graphics? Idk but the first one was a good buy and its definitely up there for me.
>no more sexual prescence
The game will feature RUDI the most sexual presence of all
Also I hope that like its source material, the game will make it clear that even vampires have a reason to get involved with antifascist action
I read VtM Night Road as a Tremere and it was pretty good despite the SocJus shit in it which was limited to fag options and saying I'm gay.
I think I could look over it for VtM:B2 if it were just that much despite non-Toreadors probably never giving a fuck about being a "gay" vampire. You all know it's not going to be, though. There's fucking "trigger warnings" before each chapter. This game is not made for us.
I have no hopes for this game. The devs are extreme SJWs, and the gameplay trailer showed their incompetence.
so ignoring the sarcasm, why the fuck would vampires give a fuck about mortal socjus causes except for ways to exploit them?
Coming off the high of the first game i know its gonna be shit the amount of pandering for SOC is unreal. What a shame. But to be honest i think what sold the first game to me was the dark graphics and atmosphere, and 2 dosent look like it does it well.
Social justice is so important they all decided to drop the jyhad until it was sorted out
there's a way to tackle things without being ham-handed about it, though. For example, in the interactive novel I named, there is a migrant camp. It's a hellhole because the Camarilla have infiltrated it and are using the migrants as blood dolls.
You can keep it open, twist it to be under your control, or shut it down. The story doesn't try to beat you over the head with "DRUMPF DID THIS"
it's not even written well, what in the fuck
"haha slip of the tongue in text form funnay XD"
And look at what they did to our girl, holy fuck
sjws will make the game mediocre. the first one was pretty sexual. blood dolls are problematic nowadays, and women cant wear revealing clothes in media.
>You can keep it open, twist it to be under your control, or shut it down. The story doesn't try to beat you over the head with "DRUMPF DID THIS"
This dosent sound too bad, but the mention of your character acknowledging every moment that hes gay or whatever. The OG game literally didnt need ANY kind of outside influence or political pushings. It was pick a faction, roam the streets, kill shit.
>Nope
>They don't fuck it up
>They will fuck it up and kill the IP
>They will fuck it up and kill the IP
Honestly, im shocked a sequel is even being made. But it honestly seems like a cash grab from a bunch of SJWs that knew nothing of the orginal more than anything. I cry tonight bros.
Well, it's not blatant, but it is there. You look into a mirror as part of the character creation and you see either
male
female
non-binary (????)
and one of the characters you interact with a lot is a fellow neonate, Julian. Some of the options you can say to him make you gay as fuck, but I just didn't pick those.
I also imagine it was easier to do it that way because those lines wouldn't have to change if you were a female vampire.
I canceled my pre-order a month ago.
Yeah thats actually reasonable thinking. Making responsrs Unisex. However also very lazy in a text game.
I want to see more of 2 definitely. The gameplay i saw didnt impress me at all. And because it got delayed it dosent bode well.
>Do you think itll be any fun like the first?
The first wasn't "any fun", it was visionary. I doubt this will be visionary like the first, But I think its safe to assume it will be a fun mid budget action game. The type that if it came out of Eastern Europe, it would be flavor of the month on Zig Forums and universally liked.
>Hopes?
I hope that they lean on the RPG stuff more than on the action game stuff. I want to play the role of a thug, and if I act like a thug, people treat me like a thug, and new opportunities open for me as a thug. I want to play the role of a socialite, and if I act like it, people treat me like it, new opportunities open, etc. But I doubt it, action is easier to make than roleplay.
>Fears?
I fear bugs. Bugs ruined the first game. Newfags can say what they want, but when VtMB came out there was outrage, talks of suing, the game could not be played on many systems, literally could not be finished for some builds, etc. It got blasted by magazine reviews, and by gamer reviews. It only "got good" later, with patches. Post mortem. I hope this new and small studio doesn't give us a game TOO faithful to the original, and releasing in a broken state like the original.
It will 100% be a good game. The formula is great, the only way to make it shit is by having no dialogue choice like skyrim and no consequences.
Eastern Yurope game devs wouldn't be on a podcast and talking for 25 minutes about transgender vampires instead of the game.
They also wouldn't have fucking literally trigger warnings so you can skip the chapter.
I fear you're delusional.
>i dislike this game i havent played, because my identity politics are different from the identity politics of some of the staff working on it
I fear you're delusional.
>no u
>no actual rebuttal
sorry, shill. You won't be getting a bonus after this flop.
>rebuttal
To what? Your first response is calling me mentally ill, and your second response is calling me a secret agent.
You make no argument, you don't address what I wrote, and you are simply virtue signaling how much you hate DA LIBS so that others here can give you a wank about it.
Here's one that's really going to knock your socks off; I'm a Dem. I live in CA, have voted blue, and will continue to do so despite my misgivings about some of the people in my party's more radical beliefs.
Keep fighting that windmill, Don Quixote. Like others of your ilk, you can't possibly comprehend that basically everyone hates you and your Twitter ilk and have to rationalize it as "everyone who doesn't think exactly like me is a MAGAtard"
get fucked
Everything nowadays is a remake or a sequel
There's no soul anymore
Nobody asked who you vote for, but thanks for letting us all know anyways.
I didn't say who I vote for, but thanks for assuming and sharing your assumption.
I couldn't help but notice this is the third post in a row where you fail to address the game, but that's fine too.
In the end, I accept your surrender, but I wish you were more dignified in defeat next time.
>how much you hate DA LIBS
>disingenuous retard
>still hasn't addressed why transexual vampires or trigger warnings improve the game whatsoever
you hate to see it
You think there will be any sexy big titty vampire girls like Jennette thatll make me like the gif or nah?
funny kot
>Doesn't believe in Caine or Gehenna even though they were canonically correct.
He's a retard, should have heeded the warnings of the Malks.
that's only one of the Gehenna scenarios, right? Doesn't Caine do fuck all in the other three?
Whyd they remove Gangreal as a faction, Bros?
>i just hate trannies, gays, niggers, and anyone who says otherwise is a shill. but im a classical liberal akschually
Okay, alright, cool, cool.
>trigger warnings trigger me!
Literally invented by conservative christians, that's why you get a screen saying the movie contains nudity, etc, but okay.
>disingenuous
You assume my believes, lie about your believes, and ruin threads about video games with identity politics shit, but okay.
>citing trump to prove how much i am a liberal, and to trigger DA LIBS
Sad!
These are so painful to read, holy shit.
look how they massacred my girl holy fuck
not touching this shit with a 10 foot stick
Yeah, but c'mon that was obviously the story that was being led up to. I played Vampire tabletop before it was irreversibly destroyed when it became requiem. Caine and the antediluvians were clearly the end game.
>if I keep strawmanning maybe I'll convince 1 of the 12 other people in the thread that I'm right and they'll buy this assuredly piece of shit game
like I said, no bonus for you, shill. Looks like my mentally ill assertation was right, too.
I mean, I agree with you. The one where the PCs are trapped in a Church is the gayest most anti-climatic way I could think to end things.
I'm afraid there will be no edge and no uncomfortable moments like in the first one
Also I think the writing might blow
Also a lack of tits since the first one had some great ones
I think the 2nd on eill have absolutely 0, sex appeal.
Imagine thinking Bloodlines was about the tits. Where's that image about Deux Ex and the point going over the gamer's head, post that shit.
what are you talking about? There will be trigger warnings in the game so you can skip all of the icky stuff.
Based Cara said
>She also said that they’re trying to broaden Bloodlines 2 from the more masculine power fantasy of the original, so that it appeals to way more people this time.
>mfw just want a good Hunter the Vigil game since it's the only chronicles of darkness setting worth fucking anything
>mfw devs are scared of using it for some reason
the game had a console command to balloon the tits to massive size. They knew what they were doing.
>read that as Hunter the Virgin
I never said it was about the tits. But rather theyre gonna cut anything mildy sexual out the game. First game had big tit scantily clad women, prostitution, sex, and you could literally turn a human into your slave and have her wear nothing but panties and a tank top. Im just saying there wont be ANY of that in 2, and while a small contribution that stuff added to the gritty charm of 1.
I love it when Zig Forums dummies fall for bait dangled for SJWs. There will be a cut scene containing something like rape, and you can skip that cutscene. AW MAY GAWD THE GAME IS RUINED.
we already decided it was shit user
fuck you faggot, Jeanette and VV had amazing pairs for a 16 years old Source game
the game is written for and by SJWs. All of this stuff is easily verifiable by interviews the writers and devs have done.
Also, you act like people don't know who Cara Ellison is or what she did to Hotline Miami 2.
You guys suck so bad at gaslighting it's not even funny.
forgot Venus
That's right! And when that actor said he grew up reading comic books, and his favorite character is the Man-Spider, he wasn't lying either! He wasn't selling his product, he was announcing who his work is meant for :)
>Game had a quest with cut content where the main rewards were sexy pictures of female NPCs.
user... I realize that, of course vampires are going to use seduction especially toreador, and Jeanette's sexyness was, in part, a thematic thing. Her two halves (an oversexed bimbo and an ice queen) are two stereotypical reactions to sexual abuse, which her embrace is sorta likened to. But they certainly leaned into the fanservice a bit.
>The Vigil
>Not The Reckoning
Why though?
