How would a Vampire the Masquerade movie work
>>214276817Underworld, but with more backstabbing and more about humanity
I don't think movies about RPGs would work well because you either have to create your own story or take from the video game decide on certain choices. Fallout solved this problem by ruining all the source material so badly that none of the players choices ever mattered anyways.
>>214276883the tv show is literally a human centipede from every Bethesda in terms of how regurgitated/unoriginal and boring the series has become. I hate this timeline, we could've gotten great stories and rpgs if Bethesda wasn't so shit at making them and had the og writers
>>214276817It wouldn't.
>>214276883thing is it doesn't have to take place in the games directly just the world within it
>>214276817Like this but edited for film
>>214276817having a different voice would ruin that character
>>214276840Underworld but it's explicitly supernatural this time
>>214276817Looks like she fucks HUMAN men
>>214276817best possible time to do itmillions saved from the budget with no need for a nosferatu makeup
>>214277684I'm afraid all those skeletons already signed for the Diablo 2 movieYes, his army grows strong
>>214277684they all look like normal vampires just the non seductive ones
>>214276817cast her
>>214276817blade but gayer but in a cool way
>>214276958I haven't watched the show but it looks like it was based off Fallout 4, not even Fallout 3. So they're already setting the bar so low.
>>214277778Big titted, annoying, leftist bitch you'd love to hatefuck?Following the rule of replacing gingers with niggers I give you...
>>214278053she aint ginger she's a brown haired chick who died her hair legit red
>>214276817Unironically Twilight, but with an emphases on the Vampire clans and secrecy (The Volturi in this case). Also do this
>>214277640no she fucks gangrel sigma chads like me as i go O WOOEEOOOOO
>>214277554So...the first two eps?I remember watching that ages ago and the first eps feel like they would fit on a made for tv movie.
>>214276817What clan character would be the best protagonist
>>214276817not reallymost of the appeal of the game was "woah I can do that" or "woah is this a real place I can visit" and "woah can I talk to this person"in a movie you take all that for granted so if you want to produce similar emotions you have to go over the top like Blade or Underworld
forgot pic :3
>>214277684They all look like vampires from Buffy
>>214278743the appeal for me its the fact it's 2000s LA with the fightclub/matrix goth aesthetic with horror and vampires
>>214278812yeah but the movie needs a story too, a good one (and by good I mean no gnosticslop)a game can get by on atmosphere and architecture and stuff... like real life yeah
>>214276817Sure, VtM got plenty of lore and lee way for it, most of the Clans are heavily inspired by Films like the Brujah are inspired by Lost Boys, for example.which you could argue is a problem for VtM is that it's very generic and all the vampires are inspired by better, more popular works, so what's the point of making a VtM film? It would be like making a Warhammer Fantasy film or a Shadowrun film, it feels very redundant.
>>214278863>gnosticslopWhat's even is that?
>>214276817V:tM (the core setting, not the game) is essentially a mafia story. It's all about underworld power struggles and shadow-wars conducted by night, so I'd like to see a movie built around that, just with more eroticism.
>>214279019>we wuz lost boys bro have you got $1
>>214279043it's half way between industry secret and inside joke... heavily abused in the last decade or so, as a witness to hollywood going down as a slow-motion titanicI don't worry about it if I were you
>>214277889Fallout 4 was a reboot stylistically. It’ll be the basis for all future fallout content
>>214276817Focus on the horror of being a vampire and don't delve too deep into the politics or lore.Have someone wake up in a bathtup after being embraced without their knowledge, Dark City style because I really like that scene
>>214279058>sopranos but instead of a fat italian everyone is a skinny goth
>>214278053I unironically think women shouldn't be allowed to dress like that in public without being arrested for public indecency.
>>214279178So just do another version of Near Dark then?
>>214279199>>214279058
>>214279199Gangrel Hitman forced to do hits for the Camarilla
>>214279178>Dark City stylemaybe the style of Dark City before>hey bro I got some millions of dollars here put some CGI in it>I figured it out without CGI bro it's chill>I got a few millions more bro, think about it>hmmm... okay, and I'll also suck your cock for free>deal!i'd stop talk about that cheap gnosticslop if I were yous
>>214276817First, you bin the Bloodlines idea and adapt Vampire: the Masquerade - KINODEMPTION instead.
>>214279737more like Vampire: the Masquerade Wall of Text
>>214276817>How would a Vampire the Masquerade movie workcheck this out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFyQtOghqwAI didn't watch it just listened to it while working out... and didn't stop working out until it finishedif there's gonna be a movie it better be in that direction... extremely high quality even if toddler grade story
>>214279621Blood doll? Ova here!
>>214279058FUCKIN QUEERS
>>214279706who said anything about gnosticism?
>>214280256meproblems?
>>214276817i suspect very similarly to the Originals TV series from the CW.
Just make a prequel before the true blood and add clans
>>214280561>season 3if it didn't get cancelled after season 1 or 2 it's clearly not vampires but the climpton/obombe/bidet clan
>>214279058I guess that's kind of true or at least overlaps with how I see it, but I always thought it was more about how despite all the cool vampire shit you can do, you're really just desperately being strung along by anyone with slightly more seniority than you in a daisy chain that goes all the way back to the dawn of time. All the details of vampire politics don't actually matter other than being another thing to struggle against
>>214280561That cover art is gross and should be genderswapped
>>214276817There's a huge fascination with the 00's with zoomers. Have the movie take place in the early 2000's
>>214281049I think that really is expressed in a Sopranos-style story, with a focus on being a middle of the pack thug. It doesn't matter where you are in the world or when in time, it's just a matter of someone above you having their boot on your neck, and you having a boot on the neck of the guy below you, because that's all you've got.
>>214281888It's why you should always pick the legends and pariahs ending
who has a sexy enough voice to play vv?
Bro that whole decade was peak vampire kino.We don't need a Masquerade movie.
>>214282009I can't think of many vampire movies that are about being pressured with constant death threats to run errands
>>214281973obvious one would be Scarlett Johanssonher raspy voice would work
>>214279221>Im unironically homosexual
>>214282953that overhyped skank belongs in a trash bin
>>214276817isn't type-o negative in this game?
>>214284235give a better suggestion for VV then fag
>>214284252No
>>214284350not doing a shitty (((adaptation))) in the first placeor at minimum literally hiring a rando and giving them acting classes instead of these worn out ugly skanks in hollywood
>>214279221They think they are gods because simp faggots like >>21428420 prop them up
>>214284487it won't be shit if it uses the building blocks of the lore to make a completely original movie or mini series about it
>>214277778Sweeney is short enough isnt she
>>214279621>You got a kuei jin onna your hat
>>214276817every modern Vamp movie or show has been influenced by this or Anne Rice. Even WhiteWolf admits they got influenced a lot by Anne Rice.
>>214277778Kat Dennings
>>214278675Toreador of course, the most normie vanilla archetype.
>>214279178nah. it wouldnt VTM without the metaplot, clans and politicking. it would just another generic bloodsucker show.
>>214285069>Kat Denningsholy fuck she is Damsel
>>214285091Toreador is the most boring clan the only way it would work if they make the character a retarded jack sparrow like himbo who's good with guns
>>214276817i'm gonna play this hoe for Halloween this year and i'm excited. i started getting some great VtMB edits in my TikTok feed and the urge to reinstall became too strong. lol
>>214285417I'm going to pretend these words are coming from something attractive despite knowing better
>>214276817What if Memento but with vampires and mild soap opera characteristics.
>>214285417if you're a woman you're based if you're a troon, the ropes right there
>meeting your pre-vampire life friend in Hollywood
>>214277554I watched some of this and... I don't quite have words for the feeling for it. But it's basically a 90s soap drama with a vampire skin. Like Lost Girl or Highlander but way softer.Lotta weird/interesting choices. Brujah are the evil clan, Gangrel the protagonist good boys, and vampires normally never kill (!), and can go out in sunlight.
>>214276817hot female character using her sex appeal to feed and hide
>>214276817>90 min to 2 hour run time>1-2 central characters>4-5 supporting cast characters>linear 3 act structure>gehenna backdrop?It would be fucking retarded. There are so many clans that they all would be fighting over screentime. Imagine Reservoir Dogs but they aren't easily understandable gangsters would totally different archetypes with different personalities and abilities. You'd end up with a "here comes the nossy, he's hacking and he's really ugly" and "wow it's a ventrue, he's the powerful exec type, look at him using dominate" and the audience goes "yeah i know that clan look at him doing the thing!!111 it's so cool." Repeat that for the entire runtime and the movie would be over after introducing every character and clan.
>>214276817The Warriors but with vampires.>Camarilla Prince calls a meeting>Sabbat attempt to assasinate the prince>frames the Anarchs for it>Prince calls for a blood hunt on Anarchs>Anarchs have to fight/survive until they make it back to their domain
>>214285854Pretty sure he was ventrue, but it was basically just a soap opera that used a lot of VtM terms.
>>214285690>>214285730i'm just a regular white guy.
>>214286446oh, the edits were made by women though, if it helps. i threw them in a pastebin because 4chan doesn't want me posting a handful of catbox links.https://pastebin.com/475Q4hEW
>>214285854>can go out in sunlight.TV show budget issues it's much cheaper shooting in the day
>>214286202best idea i've read for it
>>214276817It cant really. The RPG and the aesthetics dont just translate to a movie. Although Margot Robbie would be perfect for Jeannete>>214277778Any hot redhead>>214281973Christina Hendricks
>>214276817Extended 10-minute ISOLATED dance sequence.
>>214277611The vampires, werewolves, and (later) vampires with magic weren't enough supernatural for you?

You DID keep her as your loyal and loving ghoul pet, right?
>>214277778AOC
>>214285740>playing at low humanity and choosing the dickhead dialogue options so your character frenzies and kills her
>>214289424nope made her a slut
>>214290205I feel like there's probably a lot of low humanity dialogue options I've never seen because you have to really fuck up to ever get there
>rpgat best you'd get a clumsy effort like the FF movie.
The Underworld movies were a ripoff of VTM and White Wolf sued Sony and settled out of court over it.
>>214277684still would Anya and Freya, though Freya might be too far gone already, haven't seen any very recent pics
>>214280285you have problems, more specifically of the mental variety

>>214291375I thought they just outright lost that one
Bloodlines was a fluke. The game was good in spite of the setting, not because of the setting.Nothing good outside of that game has come from the setting. I read quite a lot of the lore and it's ass. The game was fairly grounded. The vampires had super strength and immortality and they are the apex predators but they are still afraid of werewolves who are really big and scary so even vampires have something to be afraid of.Then you read the lore and the entire world is overrun by magicians and thousands of special snowflake monster clans who are a billion times stronger than a vampire and makes you wonder how vampires can even survive or claim domain over entire cities.And then you read about older vampires and they are complete Mary Sues. You have faggot vampires who single handedly control an entire continent, like Baba Yaga is a vampire who controls all of Russia alone, or some shit like that. And then even older vampires are worse than that. Cain is basically god. God cursed Cain by giving him every super power in the world and he can bend reality and time travel and walk in the sun, not only is he immortal but if you were to kill him then god would bring him back to life.It's all so retarded.The retarded lore reminds me of True Blood, but it's way worse. At least in True Blood they had a more sane power system for vampires. How old you are determines your power, not which generation you are so the first vampire wasn't born strong, it took them thousands of years to become as powerful as they are now.If you use the Vampire the Masquerade setting, you can never bring Cain in the story or explore the origins of vampires. If even a fifth generation vampire shows up in the story, it's over, their powers are too strong for you to have a story without a 5000 year old guy showing up and mind wiping everyone and rewriting reality.
>>214291702>How old you are determines your power, not which generation you are so the first vampire wasn't born strong, it took them thousands of years to become as powerful as they are now.That's how Vampire the Requiem handled Vampires, which is a better game than Masquerade, but WW returned to Masquerade to cash in on 90s Nostalgia
>>214276817movies suck, cant put in any significant character development in 2 hoursmake it a seriesan anime...
>>214291702World of Darkness isn't really meant to be some living setting where you're using different monster books as supplements like a DnD game where one player has a prestige class from X while another has one from Y. People might have done otherwise, but it's supposed to be like your group is just playing vampire or just playing mage or whatever. I also don't think there's anything particularly special about their take on a vampire story though, unless you really like the specific history of clans they use and the Cain shit. Even the clans are really just the basic archetypes for vampires you find in fiction if you take away the specifics. Toreador as your Interview with a Vampire type, Brujah as your Lost Boys or Near Dark type, etc with maybe a handful of exceptions
>>214291702truthnuke
>>214291870The original World of Darkness was pretty interconnected, at least in the 90s, and had plenty of crossover splat books between all the different game lines, but it was shown to be rather uncontrollable, which is why they stopped doing that.Samuel Haight is the key example of why it's very silly
>>214291702>God cursed Cain by giving him every super power in the worldspeed reading secondary
>>214291870>don't think there's anything particularly special about their take on a vampire storyWhat's special and what I liked initially is that there is an attempt at establishing deeper lore and keeping it consistent.The clans are obviously just different movie interpretations of vampires, but what other setting puts them all together and creates a cohesive narrative explaining the differences between these different takes of vampires?All vampire settings I've seen have just vampires. This setting puts all these vampires into one package and all of them serve a role. I like that you have these upper class Dracula vampires and then in the sewers they have Nosferatu ugly vampires. That kind of stuff is interesting to me and that's what made Bloodlines interesting. The first time you play you don't know what a Malkavian is so Theresa/Jeanette reveal is a surprise and when you run into a new vampire you have to think about what kind of clan they might be and what you can expect from them. Like when you first run into Beckett you may think he is a werewolf.I like that not every vampire can do blood magic or turn into a beast. In the game you had to research these clans and figure out what their deal is.This kind of stuff way more interesting that something like True Blood where every vampire just moves fast and they are strong.
>>214291702>God cursed Cain by giving him every super power in the world and he can bend reality and time travel and walk in the sun, not only is he immortal but if you were to kill him then god would bring him back to life.his true curse is having to watch his children murdering each other forever
>>214276817canonical ugly bastard enjoyer
>>214292658Cain clearly doesn't give a shit. It doesn't even make sense why he created more vampires. If he started as a weak vampire it would make sense why he would turn other people into vampires to get an edge over humans.Instead he is an immortal god who can just disappear without a trace and who knows what he is up to. Sleeping for eternity or fucked off to another dimension. There is no punishment. He didn't have to create ''children.''
>>214276817antediluvian is one of my favorite words, shout out to Vampire for teaching it to me. lol
>>214292695She doesn't actually like sex, vampires just don't in general. They can get hard and cum blood if they want to to keep up appearences and shit, or just for the sake of pretending, but no orgasms. You only get the equiavelnt of these from drinking blood.
>>214293105that's just what everybody tell (You)
>>214293105>They can get hard and cum bloodSo can I, that doesn't make me a Vampire
>>214292814>He didn't have to create ''children.''He has an innate drive to, just like most humans. You might as well argue torture isn't real because you can just ignore the pain, lmao.

>>214279221I unironically think it should be illegal for attractive women to be in public without wearing something like that
this is NOT okay
>>214276817It wouldn't because the scene and aesthetic is dead. Zoomers don't even know what emo was, goths are barely hanging on but it's not even close to the same.
>>214276817It wouldn't, it would however need to be made into a long drawn out series.Season 1 Cain the Beginning, every season afterwards would have to introduce and show the machinations of every clan. One season per clan reiterating Cain's legacy. The final season would be Gehenna the End. The timeline would be from 0BC to modern day.The same could be done with Demon the Fallen, Werewolf the Apocalypse and Hunter the Reckoning.
