VTM Bloodlines 2 is adding melee weapons and guns to the game; in essence, rebuilding major elements of the core game design. I just wish they'd done this BEFORE release. They could have avoided so much grief.

Cool, will they be adding actually good wrting, story, NPCs, playable clans, proper roeplaying, sexy vamipre ladies with nice boobies and attributes/stats anytime soon?

Only for the DLC though

Also futanari option

What was the reason for omitting melee weapons and having guns as basically consumables you use telekinesis to fire in the first place? Is this a tabletop thing or did they just make it up for the game?
>>
>>737599762
The rationale is that Paradox gave this project to the lowest bidder. One generic telekinesis animation is cheaper than actually animating multiple first-person weapons.

The engoodening of Bloodlines 2. Step 1. Ditch the whole "you are the weapon" idea and go back to what Hardsuit was doing. Step 2. Add a synthwave cover of Isolated to the Ysabella DLC.

It was never pitched as an RPG, but there will probably be some sexy stuff in the second DLC.

No, melee weapons are being added to base game in next week's patch (Spring Update). Guns are being added in a few months (Summer Update). The DLC is sorta acting as a prototype for guns since it has a single dedicated gun. The Summer Update will have to make all guns usable which is a lot more work.

It'a hard to tell. The original dev was really struggling with melee and gunplay. The replacement dev seemed to have this idea around the player's body being a weapon. So brute strength and supernatural powers. But playtesters were unhappy. So they expanded telekinesis so you could fling objects and mag dump guns. But it was an incredibly awkward compromise around a central design idea that simply didn't work. The combat rapidly devolved into not-fun slap-fests. Slap, slap, dodge, slap, also kick sometimes. It got old FAST. This is them trying to walk back 5 years of accumulated bad design ideas. Fingers crossed melee actually feels good.

Modders will very likely be able to mod Benny's gun into the main campaign as a stopgap for the official update.

>vtmb2 is adding poopoo to the peepee

>>737599762
it was supposed to be that you're a totally powerful inhuman monster who doesn't need puny human weapons and doesn't act like a human

So you're a sellout then. One that's easily bought.

If it didn't exist before release, it didn't happen. I'm a gamer not the salvation army for incompetent faggots.

>>737598213
All this shit could've been avoided if they didn't advertise the game as a sequel to Bloodlines. That's it! It wouldn't get nearly the amount of bad reputation that it have now. They seriously put in the effort of making this lame sequel have no relevance to the first game.

I already got through the game once, while having guns would be nicer, this late addition doesn't change anything, the game was already fully designed and realized without guns in mind so I doubt they'll significantly improve the experience now.
