My apologies for disrupting any business or interfering with prior engagements you may have had this evening. It's unfortunate that the affair that gathers us tonight is a troubling one. We are here because the laws that bind our society - the laws that are the fabric of our existence - have been broken. As prince, I am within my rights to grant or deny the Kindred of this city the privilege of siring. Many of you have come to me seeking permission, and I have endorsed some of these requests.However, the accused that sits before you tonight was not refused permission. Indeed, my permission was never sought at all. They were caught shortly after the Embrace of this childe. It pains me to announce the sentence, as... up to tonight I considered the accused a loyal and upstanding member of our organization. But as some of you may know, the penalty for this transgression is death. Know that I am no more a judicator than I am a servant to the law that governs us all. Let tonight's proceeding serve as a reminder to our community that we must adhere to the code that binds our society, lest we endanger all of our blood.Forgive me. Let the penalty commence.Which leads to the fate of the ill-begotten childe. Without a sire, most childe are doomed to walk the Earth never knowing their place, their responsibility, and most importantly, the laws they must obey. Therefore, I have decided that—
Nigger!

>>746226345he didn't say that
>*is also at the meeting emitting nothing but pure sex*
Good evening, Prince. Why is the video game so much better than the tabletop?
>>746226624....
hello, neonate. how can i be of assistance?
Israel is the Camarilla's greatest ally
>>746226624>retards fall for her bullshit because she has huge tits
>>746226291Yes hello my people
>>746226291>my character canonically isn't a virgin
>>746227120It's because they lost their virginity they were Embraced. Let this be a reminder to all of you the very real danger that is having premarital sex outside of the bounds of holy matrimony with the blessing of your Lord thy God.Stay moral, go oral.
>>746226291Did you just hecki'n PERFORM the frick'n low level Embody Arcanos Whisper in order warn a Kindred about your husband?!OH MY CHARON!DICTUUUM MORTUUM VIOLATION!DICTUM MORTUUUUUM VIOLATION!Alert EVERY Legion! Soul Forge her into a TABLE! NOW!
>>746227567Wasn't the underworld blown up at this point?
>>746226291Every important vampire in the city really dropped what they were doing to show up and watch a freshly embraced vampire get axed?
>>746227120How does that scene work if you're playing a Nossie? How drunk do you have to be to bed a Nosferatu?
>>746227741They were there to see if an 8th gen prince of the camarilla would actually give final death to a 7th gen anarch, and wouldn't you know it, he actually did it, the fucking mad man
>>746226926Carnivals and rodeos are fun unlike whores!
>>746227872In the TT rulebook, 3 dots in Obfuscate gives "Mask of a Thousand Faces" so a Nossie can pretend to be someone else for a while.
>>746226345My Nines said that
>>746226624>alive name her as a malk>she has a melty and demands you call her by her dead name
>>746228325To be fair, Susan was built for gangrape. VV can at least use her Celerity to dodge dicks if she wants.
>>746227908>Anarch He said your sire was an upstanding member of the Camarilla unless I'm missing something.
>>746227908The Protagonist's Sire is a member of the Camarilla. The Prince introduces him/her as an upstanding member of their organization.
>>746228602>>746228630The Camarilla elders believe that the Anarchs are just a political movement within the Camarilla, rather than an entire separate sect. As a Prince, LaCroix takes that political line.
>>746226345TELL EM NINES

>>746228898>Deb gaslighting and bullying a caitiff fledgling to go die on the beach at sunriseHOLY BASED
>>746226345If Mister Rodriguez would let me finish.I have decided to let this Kindred live. They shall be instructed in the ways of our kind and be granted the same rights. Let no one say I am unsympathetic to the plights and causes of this community. I thank you all for attending these proceedings, and I hope their significance is not lost. Good evening.
>>746226530but he DID say THIShttps://files.catbox.moe/n9qbam.mp4
>>746226291He deserved a good end. He's morally dark gray/almost black like all the elders in the setting and initially antagonistic but he was well written.
>>746229437He's not an elder. He's barely 200 years old, if that. Considering how quick he is to use Dominate even in Elysium, he's an absolute bitch. He deserved everything coming to him.
>>746229437He's a whiny bitch obsessed with power. There's no grey here, he's an asshole looking to improve his own standing and rise in the camarilla, and he's willing to do anything and kill anyone in the way of that.I don't think he's badly written but he doesn't deserve shit. He's a villain, plain and simple.
>>746229650>>746229667samefag
>>746226291>>746226345Lacroix, Nines? Could you explain the contents of this photograph featuring you two?
>>746229942why are you gay
>>746227872What the other anon said. If you are playing as a nosferatu she looks like a normal human when you are in the bedroom but during the execution she drops her disguise. Shame that you don't get the same ability during gameplay, but maybe it would go against the spirit of playing as a nosferatu if you could considering the restrictions.
>>746230217From a technical standpoint it would be a huge waste of time to have unique dialogue for Nosferatu, just to have a Discipline undo all of that. It would be like giving Malkavians a history that removes their conversational madness.
>>746226291>KAIN REFUSED THE SACRIFICE
I miss 90s/early 2000s vampire kino.Also one of the best songs in VTMB was made by the same band who made the Angel theme song.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYpg8bqKbW0https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WPnkB_cKKi8
>>746229650Your tricks don't work on me
Vampire jew
>>746230821I blame faggots who screeched edgy edgy at everything that wasn't bing bing wahoo
>>746226839Would the TEC-9 be more fitting for LA?
Camarilla>Sabbat>Anarchs
>>746226969Somehow made her both cooler and lamer.
>>7462cult.She's a psychopathic cunt and her bullshit only works on thirsty incels.
>>746231474Only because the devs decided to keep her the party's retard.
>>746226291I've played the game twice since release and I still don't what's inside the sarcophagus. I'm going to open it on my next playthrough in a couple of years time
>>746231605don't do it.
>>746231605Do it.

>>746229650If he's a bitch then how come he came to lead the Camarilla and require an entire campaign (with possibly a Kindred sired by Caine) to stop him? Seems like he was an absolute menace that would have gotten away with it if it weren't for a deus ex machina, or diabolus ex machina I guess.
>>746231605I wouldnt recommend it.
>>746232172for u
>play any major rework mod>they all have retarded fast blood point drain overtime so you gotta feed every time you cross the street>most of them have poorly balanced new clans or badly implemented new disciplines>they all require some retardedly specific version of the unofficial patch >most of them make combat even more of a slogThat said has anyone tried Camarilla Edition Reborn? It's next on my list.
>>746229984You tell us, Lacroix.
>>746232172>Why is this podunk running the camarilla equivalent of minsc airport and getting pranked by one random elder and losing?Is this Bach? Bro I get it hunters don't get the memo but damn man. Pic related, it's you.
>>746232471https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wo8GnOdDzXU
>>746232172if you don't know anything about the game just say so
>>746232873kekbaited...
>>746231854>TzimisceNot what I had in mind but I can't deny that it's a fitting result.
>>746232903I am going to get Fat Tony to sit on you...
>>746231854What the fuck is a Salubri?
>>746232172>how come he came to lead the CamarillaHe leads a tiny branch of the camarilla in contested territory in the new world. He's still a little bitch by cammy standards.> and require an entire campaign (with possibly a Kindred sired by Caine) to stop him? You're 8th gen by blood pool, very far from Caine. Caine might have fucked with your generation but even that is just speculation, more likely your sire was just pretty low gen. You're also brand new, a total fledgling.> Seems like he was an absolute menace that would have gotten away with it if it weren't for a deus ex machina, or diabolus ex machina I guess.Gotten away with what? There never was anything to get away with. That's the genius of the plan.
>>746233020The good guys persecuted by the Tremere. Now a terrorist junta within the Sabbat.
>>746233020haha you should come over to the chantry so we can talk about it bro :^)
so what was this guy's deal exactly
>>746230821my obsession started right here. halloween '97, with the episode halloween from season 2. little did i know how fast vampire kino would end. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8y8nJjPxeCcwe also had this short lived show "vampire high" in canada. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=glYSHkzg6os

>>746226291We don't have all evening, Lacroix
>>746233408So this personality shit just called me a bitch??
>>746229437This but unironically. LaCroix did nothing wrong.
>>746231605it won't blow your mind if you do anon I promise. It's hardly an explosive climax for all the build up and if I had to guess (and it's a guess I have no fucking idea if it's true) the budget and deadline was completely bombed out by that point so they rushed the ending and it all ends up in bits. But you may as well do it at some point for completionists sake I guess. Good luck anon.
>>746233549Imagine being the guy after Lacroix. That was a sucky posting for a Camarilla boss -when- Lacroix took it, now it's a fucking dumpster fire.
>>746231854>NosferatuTh- thanks.
>>746231854the sewers are clogged with my creations
>>746232946>>746233760sick fucks...

>>746231854Never heard of them.
>>746231854>obvious questions like "what power would you like to have"fucking hate these types of quizzes
>>746233740Unless the position comes with enough troops to smoke out the Anarchs - and it won't - I think the cam will just stay out of that mess for a while and just contain it.
>>746230821>tfw White Wolf gave a wrestler permission to use its trademarks
>>746233846You're assassins creed but with more ass and mites. Congrats you Shia fuck.
>>746231854I always end up like this
>>746233894Yeah I actually agree with you. Ignoring the final nights scenarios etc the camarilla play is more like leaving it be until anarchs do something anarch enough to make it "necessary" for the camarilla to take control again (or orchestrating the whole thing themselves to create a pretext for doing so) while pretending it's a big favour. But also like you say: it's barely fucking worth it. It's clear this isn't exactly prime real estate.
>>746233952>ShiaEnough. I will have no more of this Hebrew nonsense.
>>746233845I'm gonna turn you into a fucking candelabra when I get my hands on you you goddamn nossie fuck
>>746231854>You are Lasombra!Creatures subtly at odds with mundane reality, Lasombra vampires are expected to triumph at any cost. Ruthlessness is a sought-after trait in progeny, making their reputation as betraying interlopers well deserved. Most do not seek attention, preferring to act as puppeteers, powers behind the proverbial throne. To a Shadow, the ends justify any means.
>>746234092Time to go antitribu then, god(heh) because the Banu Haqim are unironic muslim weebs. Meebs?
I understand that for the tabletop game, a metaplot about the world ending was not sustainable. For a video game, though? That shit oozes atmosphere.Cyberpunk 2077 has a lesser version of it going on with the Blackwall weakening/fading and all the happenings and signs therein, but Gehenna in this game was supreme atmospheric flavoring, that lurking dread in the background of everything.
>>746234105>Hi Vlad why is your fucking lamp so ugly.
>>746231854>GangrelSame as what I played in the game
>>746233385For me it was a romance book I read about a teenage guy who became a vampire, essentially it was more of a power trip story where the protagonist became superstrong and started craving blood. In the end he became a human again but hey.
>>746226345>>746226507
>>746233917>The Broodhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5m1hECqRDWcI fucking love this cringe ass promo
>>746234230But there kinda is a world ending bad end in the tabletop, quite a few actually. Like humans discovering that vampires exist, all Antediluvians waking up, etc.
>>746231854>Banu HaqimCan if I can execute mortal roasties under sharia law?
>>746234382well yeah, there were a series of novels as well as I think 4 different tabletop scenarios for Storytellers to use to end the setting because they wrote themselves into a corner.
>>746234265I think it really complements the ugly sofa and the ugly curtains, which you'll notice also have screaming faces embedded in them
>>746234328>>746233917never 5get the shitty ass attempt to break the IP into TV
>>746234442I think that's basically always an option unless you're a fucking pansy Salubri or something. Kine aren't real the Camarilla doesn't want you to know you can go to any public place and eat as many as you want I've devoured 326 kine.
>>746234576WoD is absolutely mismanaged like most tabletops. Not DnD tier but pretty close.
>>746231854Oh no
>>746234573>You will never be a screaming footstool for a Morgana hot lady Tzimice.She never uses you anyway and you get sold off to some fat hunter in a random auction house as part of a 300 year old plan by some Elder to prank another Elder

>>746231854expected nosferatu honestly, tried to steer into tremere, went schizo along the way.
>>746233409Does the female get a different model?
>>746234720We got a fucking demon terrorist here folks. Please donate more money to Isr I mean blood to the Tremare.
>>746234576What the other guy said plus clearly some exec letting a single neuron fire after seeing buffy take off and going "huh vampires we have vampires but you get no budget"
>>746230821>tfw born too late to experience goth girls
>>746226345>>746226507Actually laughed out loud
>>746234881If it makes you feel better I went to high school with a bunch of them but I never scoredIt feels worse to have been inside of Paradise and have been expelled than to have never known the delights of it
>>746233846used to be assamites. But they rebranded because "leh hecking mudslimes can be retarded gay vampires too".And yes having gay muzzies is their defining clan trait now,
GET YOUR HANDS OFF MY BAVARIAN CREME
>>746234776Sorry too busy achieving Golconda like great great great grandpa.
QRD on the Salurbi/Tremere situation? It sounds funny
>>746226291fucken vampire jews
>>746234775Nope.
>>746235187We don't belong in paradise
my second favorite game in the setting is Hunter: The Reckoning. I liked playing as Father Esteban Cortez.I was googling to see what the other classes were because there were two games I think and I get them mixed up and I saw they're making a new onehttps://store.steampowered.com/app/4434610/Hunter_The_Reckoning__Deathwish/it's probably going to suck because this IP is cursed
Deb of Night gags remind me of 30 Rock
>>746226291>>746226345>>746226507Finally some *REAL* grub around this shithole. well done.
>>746231854
>>746235672The shit they're telling us are all cool as fuck but we haven't seen ANY gameplay yet to believe any of it is real.
>>746231854I always get Gangrel. I swear I'm not a furry.
>>746231349personally i blame Twilight making vampires lame and gay until it faded from the general publics minds
>>746235739but I know better
>>746235786Gangrel are more innawoods/prepper than anything else.
>>746235817I don't know, if you ever read Anne Rice her vampires are gay as FUCK The movies are toned down in The Gay by a large amount
>play through Antitribu overhaul despite hearing it has a ton of issues because the new clans look cool>pretty fun>get to Downtown and it starts crashing whenever I try to go back to Santa Monica Well that was a bust. Anyone try Barabbah's addon. Played Bloodlines so many times that I'm desperate for something with a bit of new flavor.
>>746235863It's probably because I prefer to be alone instead of around people (aka autism).
>>746235817>be me>be named edward>fucking highschool was peak twilight craze>everyone wants to know what team I am on>check books>girl had a kid with the sparkle fag and the furfag fell in love with it>be disgusted>10 years later>be working at gas station>woman comes up>sees nametag>squeals>FUCK>"OMG I LOVE TWILIGHT blah-blah blah-blah-blah-"
>>746227731How do you *blow up* the underworld?
>>746231854>Nosferatu Maybe this will give me a shot with Wivy...
I played and beat the game, but always avoided looking at the windows in the santa monica haven because they were buggy and never managed to fix them.
>>746236000my sole experience of it was the first filmit is the only film I have fallen asleep watching
>>746233952Great. There's too many monsters among vampires. Are they legit Muslims?>>746235270No faggots in my clan.
>>746235892Anne Rice did the claiming of sleeping beauty and the second book is literally gay man harem pornShe's just into gay dudes
>>746235563In the best ending of the Final Nights before V5 existed, Crucible of God, Tremere(the actual Tremere) breaks into the secret church of the Mormons in Salt Lake City and finds the full family tree of all humanity using their records. Tremere is then able to use MAGICK to decode Humanity's True Name given to it by God, and uses a ritual to force all of Humanity to become dominated by him. Except the ritual Tremere used to make Clan Tremere used Tzimisce blood. So when Tremere dominated Humanity, Tzimisce dominated Tremere, which meant Tzimisce dominated Humanity and started turning everyone into flesh cubes. Except Tzimisce forgot that Clan Tremere basically annihilated the Salubri and added them to their bloodline. What ends up happening is Saulot shows up, tells everyone nearby to pray to God and believe in Him and the hope of Humanity, lets himself get consumed by Tzimisce, and then the Wrath of God through Salubri's blood now inside of Tzimisce who's connected to all of Humanity and Kindred explode, globally killing all vampires, supernatural abominations, and creating a new era through Saulot's sacrifice.

>>746229437Nah, Laquios is the queen bitch of all bitches. I love how from beginning to end, there's ZERO respect for him from anyone at all. Dude's just born to lose, died a loser probably, then spent 2 centuries losing more.
>>746235892At least the movie gave us Symphony of the Night
>>746235975>Played Bloodlines so many times that I'm desperate for something with a bit of new flavor.Try LA by Night and report how it feels
>>74623581716 years ago really was trash because every millennial/zoomette was thinking it was the best thing ever in literature because "muh sex." that's how "base" these critters were. no other merit required - no higher literary standard. they probably never read other books with sex in them. (I had at that point already read Conan and a few other fantasy novels that peaked my interest.) even Eragon although being a hack was more honest pastiche and genre fiction with some funny qualities. (I had read some of the old school dragonlance novels and some drizz't at that time as well.) take me fucking back.
>>746229942Am I seeing MPreg or am I just tired?
>>746226291so far I'm not very impressed with the game. it's very similar to deus ex
>>746236301the awesome power of vissictude made manifest
>>746235975I read Night Road and it wasn't terrible but it does have gay shit in it
Posting in epic thread
Gimme more good songs like the ones in this game bros
are there vampires in VtM who don't really even deal with all the clan and generation stuff beyond what's necessary and just go "yeah i can live forever now? cool, i'm gonna spend 800 years getting really good at ghostwriting fantasy novels" or some shitlike ultimate NEETdom

>>746226345This is something a true anarch would say btw
>>746236503Yeah but how would you even know about them anonYou also have to remember someone went out of their way to turn you and has taken massive interest in you.None of the big groups like random vampires too, so it's kind of risky depending where you're turned
>>746236179That seems like one of the cooler options, Venture with less sociopathy

>>746231854I'LL SUCK YOUR DICK!
>>746235817I used to hate the 'FRICKIN GOTH' vampire/werewolf Twilight clique types in school but now that I'm older I really miss them, and the theater kids, scene kids, and everything else from that era.There's really nothing like it anymore and most people just feel like an amalgamation of everything with no real strong boundaries that form their personality and define their interests.
>>746236594>Yeah but how would you even know about them anonbecause i, as a real human being, am asking about whether fictional stories in this vein exist, which use an omniscient narrator and don't need anyone to know about anything
>>746236142That's kind of sick desu
>>746236503The thing is, just like in real society you are bound by the chains of role and expectation in vampire society as well. You have a sire, who took on the risk of turning you, and they mostly likely have some kind of expectation of you. You have the big sects, which either know that you exist and have different expectations of you OR or hunting you because you were turned without authorization. Your sire and your clan and your sect all have enemies which will gladly stake you and leave you out for the sun to deal with. You are a pawn in a game the elders have been playing for thousands of years.Sure you can fuck off to your NEET cave in the sewers, but you're still going to need to crawl up every other night to suck someone off for blood. Not to mention that if you're in a rural area you'll get raped to death by werewolves so you've got to stay in a city, which is going to be owned by someone who probably doesn't want you drinking their bloodbags.
>>746236778They wouldn't really be interesting considering their whole gimmick is that they're just there and don't do anything or interact with anyone though, so who would bother even writing that
>>746236458Have you tried checking out the other works of the artists in the game? Chiasm, Darling Violetta, Ministry? Most of them are Dark Electro are Industrial Rock

>>746231854>LasombraThe fuck? I didn't feel like my answers were particularly ruthless or machiavellian. Shadow Powers are cool but I'm not sure I want to associate with these assholes.
>>746236380>So far I'm not very impressed with the game. It's very similar to the best game ever made.
>>746236573What the fuck is World of Darkness even about? What the hell is happening in there when it's not just crackheads in sewers and old fucks arguing over 3000 year old deeds to the local blood bank?
kill vampires
I don't know if nightly urbanism setting is to praise for that, but Bloodlines and Arx Fatalis (and Deus Ex but to a lesser extent) have such fucking great atmospheres expressed in vidya form it's unbelievable. What a glorious moment in time that was, especially since those RPG-action (note: RPG precedes the action) games are fucking deader than any vampire in the current year. The ever-shifting window of nostalgia-driven cashgrabs is right at the cusp of that era, but RPGs have always been a massive undertaking, so I doubt we'll see a resurgence. What a shame.

>>746237623>stop being a faggot and play a faggotwhat did he mean by this
>>746237586Well i guess i'm going corporate I guess melee because of presence and fortitude ?
>>746237406You're delusional.We'd never post in a thread like this.
>>746237623I played Toreador on my first run ever. Celerity is incredibly fun and broken. I'm trying to get every clan done for now.
>>746237687Toreadores gets all the pussy. Gangrels mount each other like dogs. Ventrue suck each other for favors. Tremere made faggotry their entire personality.
>>746237519There's already a group of anons working on different indie vampire RPGs thought. Ranging from small solo dev projects and other are like AA level and some including the whole titty sex violence package. In the AAA if you like that slop that witcher clone is coming too. We're already seen a resurgence of the vampire genre, just keep your eyes peeled dude and lurk moar. Stop consuming corpo slop and sucking the blackpill.
Pretty much the only vampire clan I would feel ok about being part of.
>>746237586i think tremere is the most popular but i've always been a gangrel fan. you can either be a caster or melee beast
>>746236165Why can't nudevs make black guys like this?
>>746233846Bunch of fruity ass mohammeds who were the original "blood mage" clan before the tremere barged in and copyrighted it.
>>746231854I definitely did not pick all the obvious "Tremere" answers so I can be a Vampire wizard.

>>746237880Lamar from GTA V is literally Larry
>>746237472God is waiting for Caine to apologize and because Caine won’t do it the Weaver realized she could put the Wyrm in a cock cage which is causing reality to collapse and letting humanity discover their potential early which is why so many of them are on the moon base trying to stop the Zygg but they keep helping the Chinese because the Jade Emperor manifested and aura farmed for millions of years in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber and discovered how to cheat death (it involved roundhouse kicking ogres) and shared the secrets to the Chinese but then the demons co-opted the Chinese so now they eat people’s life forces which is a bad thing and the wizards can’t stop it because the Avatars in the Shadow Realm like eating human potential pussy and are going back in time to eat their potential which is a bad thing because the less potential humanity has the more they call bullshit when they see Magic and they might accidentally kill all of the awakened humans and the only way to fix all of this is if Caine says he’s sorry but he won’t because of crackheads in sewers proving he did nothing wrong because they’re happy they shanked a dude for some crack.

>>746238009Islam was popular for the Assamites for a while but then one of their Methusalehs woke up and called that shit gay so now they're just terrorist vampires minus islam.
>>746238294Nothing for going solo and keeping the box closed?
>>746238349Now we are cooking. I'm going to use my vampire powers to cut down flock cameras.
>>746238365Isn't that just strauss ?
>>746237897Uh, thaumaturgy was promised to the Tremere 600 years ago.
>>746238529Okay but thr Salubri was a demon worshipping clan. Even now their only survivors are all in the Sabbat. What does that tell you about them? Clan Tremere has a right to defend itself.
>>746238410No, it's separate from that.https://youtu.be/gpfnECadvMQ?t=150https://youtu.be/861gV-w8ReQ?t=80
>>746237790"vampires" is not a genre but a theme, and they're not the point to begin withnobodies have been "working on" all sorts of ambitious projects since forever, but this world remembers only the results, and there is no incentive to get invested in WIP stuff until the whole thing actually comes out (if it comes out)
>>746231854Like tremere but with less ass kissing and more corpse fucking
>>746226291I think Malk and Brujah are the only clans where I liked the female design more than the male one so I picked those.
>>746238723Somebody already said this but the Strauss ending as Tremere is one of the most satisfying endings ever.
>>746238904I've only ever played this game once. And funny enough it was as Tremere but I decided to go independent anyhow.
>>746238891Literally who
>>746237220Blade was my favorite vampire movie so something like Twilight seemed unappealing. I didn't care about it much either way but it should at least be understandable why someone might not be into it. I've tried watching other vampire movies from around that time and a lot of them seemed a bit flat. I think after the first Blade movie I probably enjoyed Near Dark the most except the ending which was a bit goofy.
>>746226345Damn, I'm with the Brujah now!
>>746237220>Twilight was one of the last vampire kinosThat is a first if I've ever heard it. It was derided at the time as nothing more than a sappy love story. Where Vampires sparkled in the sun and Werewolves develop one sided love bonds. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwgeBu7KbK0
>>746238904It does seem a bit short sighted to turn someone that young. You'd think you'd pull strings, help them develop a rounded skill set, get a scholarship into some useful field and then when then turn them when they were 25-30.Thrn again ToT Uuuoooh.
>>746238821>"vampires" is not a genre but a themeIs both just like horror.>and there is no incentive to get invested in WIPGod you sound pretentious and retarded. Ok keep enjoying your AAA "ambitious" goyslop and crying in a corner while the rest of the world moves on with hot vampire chicks.
>>746239206it was derided by retards who neither watched the movies nor read the books nor liked actual vampire fiction. It was at the same time where irony faggots started to hate anyone with an actual personality so is not surprised.
>>746239043A sect made up of giovanni, Cappadocians, and Nagaraja who all have a shared interest in fucking ghost girls and their rotting corpses
>>746231854>got hecata gimme the qrd on these guys
>>746239045Adding to this, Twilight is obviously a love story. Is not even the same genre as blade. Is basically a vampire shoujo but as far as that goes is very decent.
>>746239461>Giovanni, Cappadocians, and NagarajaLiterally who.
>>746239206Don't forget about THE BABY.
>>746239243I think this would be a case of keeping magic under wraps.
>twillight was good actua-
>>746233446>runs the length of a football field in the bright sunlight>accidentally releases caine from some underground city and kicks it with him for a couple of months>sits on a bench and roasts to death when gehenna happens cause fuck itBeckett was a cool guy who doesnt afraid of anything
>>746237220>twilight>kinoIt's sometimes cringekino but mostly really fucking boring with bad CG and awful characters.
>>746239570>Downplay it to her parents>Convince/Dominate girl to keep it under wraps while telling her about her potential if she applies herself.I get your point but the society is already designed for people to downpkay this stuff as much as possible. The big risk I guess would be her turning into a legitimate Mage.
>>746239456Out of curiosity what is it about Twilight you find enjoyable compared to any other Vampire related media? I'm being serious, I never enjoyed either the films or the books.
>>746239541Italian mobsters who took over control of the Death clan (Cappadocians), focusing on Necromancy. Nagaraja are like Tremere, mages who fucked up their play for immortality and are now vampires. Pisha is one of them.
>>746239541In VTMB terms>the mobster italian vampires you visit>the clan that they stole their powers from>pisha
>>746239541use google ya dumb nigger
>>746239656that's jack, you weiner.
It seems Hecata is the clan that would look up if you told them "Gullible" was written on the ceiling.
>>746239656>>746239873read your post wrong, disregard, i suck cocks.
>>746239873Not according to Gehenna: The Final Night novel, which was the sole reason that White Wolf didn't accept the cabby as Caine. In it (or in one of the equally dogshit novels I read years ago anyway) Jack gets stabbed by some bitch for some reason, I think to kick off the thin blood revolution or something? I dunno. It's all fucking trash.
>>746226291if this is actual game dialogue im going to reinstallif this is OC by op then its breddy good
>>746239968Are there any actually good VtM novels
>>746239887The Cappadocians, sure. The Giovanni, HoS and Nagaraja are the betrayers and betrayed and wisely have trust issues in the Modern Nights.Don't think about Hecata too much; White Wolf didn't. All of them should be at each other's throats. It was a blatant attempt at streamlining which always works well for your RPG setting.
>>746240047>he hasn't played vtmb so much that the monologue is permanently drilled into his brainLmao.
>>746240047It's the game intro.You didn't skip it, right?
>>746239313>shadowboxing against console-only moviegamers or somesuchi think you can do that literally anywhere else on the site, the hell are you on about? do you want to tell me that non-professional projects ARENT known for taking forever or going nowhere or ending up unfinished? that complex 3D RPGs DONT tend to bloat the scope then crash and burn? >pretentiousread a dictionary, or just leave your insults at "retarded"if you can just eat up any and all games in early access development then good for you i guess, but i like to see things finished and concluded
>>746226291I would Lacroix
>>746240061None that I can remember, but it's been over a decade since I've read any. Some clanbooks were better than others but none were great. Only one that stuck with me was Giovanni, and only because it involved some Giovanni vampiresses biting the erect penis of some poor sap and it went into explicit detail about the burning poison running through his dick veins, since the Giovanni's flaw is that their embrace is the only one that is extremely painful rather than pleasurable.
>>746239745Like I said above Twilight is a love story with vampires as the focus. Other vampire stories are about horror and action and that's why they're different. Is not like the best vampire story ever (I can think of a few better contenders) but is well executed. The cast of vampire characters is well picked with good actors, the location is cool and comfy, while not being an action movie it has moments that built tension and the author admitted she took inspiration from alternative culture at the time plus she stole some ideas from anne rice. Now compare her to the few mainstrean zoomer movies that have been released in the past few years, is all about subversion and muh metaphors for idpol oppression or something. Is just rancid shit. Plus the movies and the books have this melancholy vibe that go very well with vampires.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4gEFZ0TJ8o
>>746240254For me it would probably be...>Nines>Lacroix>Ash>Christopher>Jack>Gary
>>746240259To expand on this, did a little digging and yup -- I remembered right. Wtf.
the visual novels suuuucked
>>746240196Some of these projects are from guys who already have 1 or 2 projects behind them even if small. Not to mention that an important point of following them is to avoid the devs to give up the shit before the ending line since they're always low on resources/voice acting/money/donation/depression. But sure bro keep waiting 15+ years for the big AAA darling that is going to finally save you is totally not going to be another cucked goyslop. I prefer to live in the present and not by a bystander the whole time
Why the fuck did these aesthetics die
Has anyone played Night Road, or any of the text-based games for that matter? How are they?
>>746240385Thank you for explaining your perspective. In some respects looking back on it in terms of the setting and tone. I can see the appeal to it. As for me I just didn't like the "gimmicks" (sparkling in the sun) surrounding how these creatures were depicted when compared to other Vampire themed stories. To each their own, I guess. Though I can agree it's been rather unfortunate in recent years. But I think it's simply a cost of writing overall in entertainment. With so many hacks in the industry wanting to "subvert" or "deconstruct" in their storytelling.
>>746227484>Haha noooo, don't become a vampire noo it's terrible you live forever and can benchpress a car and can mind control people and can turn invisible and can pretty much do everything noooo it would be terribleBite me nigga
>>746226291Was Yukie someone's OC or what? She sticks out like a sore thumb on the Chinatown segment, what is a japanese even doing there?
>>746240639Nothing cool is allowed to exist unmolested by modern day
>>746240685I hated Night Road, and stopped playing/reading about a third of the way through. Too much gay shit (as a different anon ITT pointed out) and I also detested the lack of feedback on how the mechanics worked. I was constantly losing blood, for example, with little understanding of why.
>>746236625>less
>>746240815I straight up don't like the game past Hollywood. I do not dig the Kue jin.
>>746240838I see. I guess you never bothered with the other ones, then.
>>746236974Stinky
>>746240918Correct.
>>746240838>>746240918You never even see the gay shit unless you actively go for it
>too werewolf to be part of the vamps >too vampire to be part of the werewolves gangrels truly are the outcasts
>>746240707Like I said is very decent. If you want pure unadultered fun there are better choices out there. I don't know what you exactly like anon but here's to seeing another vampire renaissance with cool and transgressive stuff left and right.
>>746240882That's just blatantly when the development time ran out. You're barely even dealing with actual kueijin, it's just that they no longer did the actual RPG mechanics, it's mostly fighting and more fighting.
>>746241053>here's to seeing another vampire renaissance with cool and transgressive stuff left and right.Same to you too. Also pic related, kino flick.
>>746241035And generally speaking, they like it that way.
>>746240995What about his complaint about the lack of feedback on the mechanics?
>>746231854>gangrelat least i'm not a nossie
>>746240815>whybecause it's cool, niggaAlso her organization, the Shih, are all across Asia dealing with Asia's version of WoD, which includes the Kuei-Jin and Yokai, among others.
>>746240815Weeabo devs wanted a hot japanese girl samurai in the game, simple as.
>>746240685Excellent; easily the best VTM stuff since Bloodlines. I prefer Parliament of knives over Nightroad, but just slightly.
>>746240882It does show that they ran out of dev time there, but I liked it alright, it is however too long for something not polished. >I do not dig the Kue jin.They are pieces of shit you aren't supposed to like but I get what you mean. I find it weird they gave you the chance to side with them for the ending when they are not trustworthy at all and antagonize you at any chance.
>>746233572it called you a crusadernow go out and kill tremere
>>746237461>very similarthe way the game is structured. the character designs are very good, but the writing not so much. you could see pic related from a mile away and so far the writing was "go do that"
>>746233572You're the one who does the right thing while getting shit on for doing it. You're a hero. You're a sacrificial lamb. You're the real Vampire: The Masquerade.
>>746241248You have to be completely retarded to not understand them as they're very simplistic and obvious if you know know the basics of VtM
>>746241371ok
>>746240838"winning" is actually losing is one of V5 main gimmicks. that's how shit the IP is now.
>>746241248So long as you can read, it's pretty straightforward. Pretty sure you can try them for free with ads on the Choice of games app, maybe google play as well.
>>746240995You're probably using the word "gay" to mean something very different from what I mean. I am using it to refer to any and all obviously left-wing messaging by the author.For reference, I dropped it after "completing" (by failure?) the hospital mission, which was the first (and only, eventually) I elected to handle.inb4 /polnigger REEEEEEE
>>746236503Kiasyd. It's kind of gay because it's a cross-splat thing, but there you go.
>>746240636>he keeps shadowboxingas if infinite budget development hell is much different from morons who are sinking a decade of effort into aimless bloat of a "dream game" or something obviously beyond their meansRPGs are simply hard to make, and RPG developers try hard to stay afloat, hopefully there is nothing objectionable about that, but large graveyards of stalled out games lead to cynicismor am i supposed to venerate everybody who paid for a steam page and posits a lofty goal of making the next morrowind?
>>746241260That's a shame. Nosferatu are at least useful.
>>746241518Free with ads? Do you just assume everybody here is from Bangladesh?

>>746226345>this vexes me
What the fuck was his problem
>>746236824Are werewolves that prevalent in rural areas? Like if you go to a small town in a flyover state, what are the chances there's a werewolf there to fuck over your NEETdom plans?
>>746231854I am sure I didn't pick any of the schizo options. How the fuck am I a Malk? Is it because I picked I see my sire as a monster?
>bought revolver>it's worse than fists>melee weapons also worse than fists
>>746242076He was bored and calling the radio was fun.
>>746227741Have you ever been immortal? They had nothing better to do. Most of the game they just hang out at the local bar or at home.
>>746242109No, but elders use werewolves as boogeymen so young vampires are forced to stay under Camarilla control in cities and suburbs instead of eking out a modicum of independence innawoods.But there are still werewolves out there and if they smell your ass they will find you and gape ("gay rape") you to second death.
>>746236904>that's depressingRemember, wherever we go, it is the blood of Caine which makes our fate.
>>746242076Viccissitude and Obtenabration are more than Disciplines. They're manifestations of metaphysical Abyssal Entitities encroaching on reality.
>>746242076They never accepted him at art school
>>746233020The Salubri are a giga-fucked Clan that most modern Kindred think are monsters. They believe only seven remain. In fact, the Salubri are a Clan of transcendence and peace, and the closest among all the Clans to what could count for goodness. They walk the path of Golconda, a state of transcendence that frees them from the Hunger of the Beast. They also practice powerful healing arts which their master, Saulot, brought back from his journeys to the East. The Tremere you know from VTMB are actually a recent invention, they were once humans that achieved vampirism through sorcery. Once they did so they were caitiff, and lacked an Antediluvian of their own. Seeking to elevate his now ostracized Clan, Tremere found and diablerized Saulot, the closest thing there is to a Jesus analog in this game. Whether this was all a plot or not Tremere unknowingly put himself in a 500 year Chinese finger trap, but in the meantime the Tremere used the opportunity to propagandize that the Salubri were all practicing profane arts. Their clan was made anathema, both for Tremere's sake and for the other Clans to in so doing centralize more power as they hunted down and diablerized these few but extraordinarily powerful Methusalehs --being a clan of Vampire Jesuses means you do not often Embrace, you see.Basically it means you're a goody two shoes and/or naive. You choose to do the right thing even it breaks the mold, and you suffer for it. You either grin and bear it or secretly harbor resentment. It is suggested that Saulot had through a number of reasons come to abandon Golconda and resolve to rule in Hell rather than seek absolution. As such, this could also be a mark against you: You are kindly, but under all of this exterior you are actually a self-serving narcissist. Something like that.
>>746242360thanks chatvtm!
>>746242167Welcome to being a superhuman.But there are later game weapons that are still better than fists.
>>746242443I didn't generate any of that, I just like being descriptive and am extraordinarily high at the moment.
>>746236904WoD isn't a nice place, but it can be strangely comfy.
>>746242109They're not /everywhere/, you'd be more likely to encounter a gangrel or something LARPing as one. That said, if you did happen to run into one then they would proceed to gape you anally because you are the literal embodiment of Werewolf Satan and the most holy thing any trve warrior of Gaia could do upon seeing you is work themselves up into a frothing rage and rip your head clean off your body.
How thin can thinblood generations get?
>>746242153Malkavian actually had deep insight. If you stated you would spend your unlife in searching for the answers to your questions, that might have been weighted towards Malkavian. But that could apply to a number of Clans, so who knows. I got Banu Haqim, which I don't really know V5's ridiculous lore but apparently they are the Assamites? I mean I guess, I did mention I would want to fight to defeat 'the most evil among us,' but I meant most evil amongst ALL, and that would be after quite some time of relaxation enjoying myself. Some of the questions have clear answers, but it's not clear how they are weighted.

>>746242675>>746242247My favorite thing about the werewolves is that they killed so many people in the Stone Age they imprinted a permanent genetic fear into every living modern human that drives you catatonic or insane if you see them
>>746240061I only read a few but I don't remember any being particularly good. But I've been wanting to check more out nevertheless>>746240259>>746240587This is great if Scott is read as an everyday human, unironically. This is exactly the kind of pulpy raunchy content I am looking for in Vampire the Masquerade. It's like what I'd expect to see in an 80's anime before it cuts back to the protagonist, to show how fucked up and insane the bad guys are. But if I'm reading correctly, Scott is a Giovanni? What was the context of the sex then? They just decided to jump him while fucking? lmao
>>746243158It requires being a part of a group that is interested in gaslight and not steampunk, and that line to not cross is ever oh so fine with a splat that is kissing cousins with technomagic that it's nearly impossible to form.
>>746243185What did humans do to the werewolves? Or was it just for food?
>>746231854>TremereI relate to Toreador a little more personally, but blood magic is too fun.
>>746234092What exactly does Ur Shulgi look like? Is he just some 4'8" pygmy guy? Or is he a child? He's a cool character, sad we never got more material surrounding him.

>>746237968Anon that's a single example from 13 years ago.I wonder if vampires do that too.
>>746243268Werewolves had a melty over Fred Flintstone building a hut.
>>746229437I blew the fuck up with him at the end. Niggercommies hate him and will tell you he's "an asshole" because he actually knows how to rule, order without gutting personal freedom, just enforcing the one code that kept the Kindred alive for centuries. The game specifically rewards betraying him and is hard scoped for Anarchs and against the Camarilla, so if you go against their current they despise you for it because you're not one of them. They wouldn't even be able to tell you what is wrong with LaCroix, it's always the same vague crap just to justify their deeds "he was a meany, he was an asshole rich bureaucrat!!!" ask any of these trannies who fully sided Anarchs, 90% chance they loved the new piece of shit game. Literal transsexual redditors.
>>746243268Humans discovered fire and agriculture and started making civilization, which disturbed the balance of nature. In order to rectify this gross injustice and crime against Gaia the wolves began to genocide as many humans as possible.

>>746236116>Are they legit Muslims?They are, mostly. As the end of the series drew near however a character named Ur Shulgi awakens, who is the childe of the Antediluvian of the Clan. He's essentially the most powerful Kindred alive at the end of Vampire the Masquerade before all the End Times shenanigans kicks off. Well THAT dude, when he wakes up, says Allah is a bunch of bullshit and completely forbids it, killing any who resist with effortless ease.I have no idea what the V5 lore is but judging by everything else they probably made them super Muslim to not offend Muslims or some stupid ass shit.

>>746243841How the fuck should I know? I keep meeting steampunkfags who mask as gaslightfags and get uppity when called out on their backdoor bullshit
>>746242167skill issue (literally)fists work well at lower skill levels because they don't have a penalty if your skill level isn't high enough, especially if you use blood buff. the early revolver does kind of suck and jack tells you as much but it actually is still a bit useful against gimble and the painting creature if you have a character with decent ranged skill.
>>746243125>Taxicab Messiah - Kidneythievesit's funny how much this feels like it fits vtmb
>>746243917For me? It's the concept art for Bloodlines.
>>746231854not even an outdoors guy just a neet
>>746243370He's not a good ruler, he's just a guy way out on a limb scrambling to do anything and everything possible to stay undead for just one more night. Which makes him a good character since his motives are believable, his actions make sense, and his emotional journey from smooth confidence to frantic desperation is a big load bearing pillar in the story's overall emotional vibe and its buildup towards catharsis.
>>746231854>he grew up with a cluster b mother80% chance single mom household too if your on hereyou basically had no chance at life lmao
>>746244065
>>746244065>>746244360whats the word for getting an artistic boner looking at these
>>746243076Practically the same thing I put in and got nossie. Maybe, because I selected two options to hide away or discard my evidence.
>>746236458Lacuna Coil has some nice songs too
>>746244881The Bloodlines 2 video game that I've developed in my head uses Our Truth as the credits with animatics of Caine killing Abel, the Fall of Constantinople, the Anarch Revolt, Venture Tower exploding, and various mandatory scenes from the game itself.
>>746245117Kino.
>>746245117>listen to the first 30 seconds>mind's eye immediately sees exactly what you're talking aboutHOLY FUCKIN' LUDO
Is there any practical way to make a game where you can play as a Tzimisce who can use vicissitude? How would you determine how often you can do it and how much you're able to twist your body?
is vtmb2 fixed now?
>>746245250>Activate ability>The game turns into SculptGL
>>746245250It would probably play like Protean does now, only the Vicissitude dots would be permanent, turning you into a walking Masquerade violation like Nosferatu. And you can change how your ghoul(s) look(s).
>>746231854I keep getting Tremere when I do this
>>746246104
>>746226507This is the part that sells it. A experienced elder would be ready for the classic anarch nigger play, but he is a parvenu and so he doesn't have the correct response
>>746242076Antediluvians and their slaves
>>746226530No but he did say>vampigger
>>746241705What's edgy about trying to become a dragon? Dragons are sick.
This game had so many hot chicks man like damn
>>746246587Fun fact: Girls used to look like that in Santa Monica. Heather is considered a 6/10 by early 2000s' standards.
>>746246239What's the deal regarding the Eastern Gargoyles anyway? did they escape the Tremere and fled to Asia, or are they a completely other thing separated from the European gargoyles and they just happen to know each other in modern nights?
>>746241705>Tzimisce>that much of an edgelord.>laughs in Pentex
>>746240761Ok>diablerizes you
Being a vampire sucks, its like being part of Mafia with no one really giving a fuck about you unless they exploit you, if they can try to suck up to you for being somehow even lower on the food chain and everyones out to backstab each other.
>>746247418shut up
>>746231854>Lasombraexpected worse
>>746247613You violated the Masquerade.
>>746247613But thats literally it. The clans exist because the social contract helps everyone but ultimately those at the top, everyone else is left to suck their higher ups dick and kicking the ladder behind you for scraps of power in an organization that ultimately values you for your usefullness and not much else.
I wish there had been more ghosts in VtMB. Does Bloodlines 2 feature any?
>>746247287>possesses ur body n turns you into a fat white worm for 500 years before counter-diablerizing youheh, nothin personnel kid
>>746247418Not unless you're one of the Banu Haqim.
>>746226291Bring back the original developers!
>>746247851Yes, after a fact. But not really, the entire story revolves around like 6 or 7 characters and their interpersonal relationships, nothing else.
>>746248164It is weird to see the face of the man that created something you jerked off to relentlessly. That chick --I think her name was Ivy?-- had uncharacteristically larger and rounder breasts than other NPCs. I used to crank one out to her tits like 3 times every time I played this game. I was 15 at the time, fuck off.
>>746248263>IvyVenus
>>746248164why is no one trying to make graphics like this in the indie scene? so much of it is just typical source engine slapping images over objects. with gpus today, you don't have that strict triangle count limitation you did 22 years ago. bump texture resolution up one stage, cheat on polygons a little bit.
>>746236974>Haha! I know all the answers to get Tzimisce!>Get Tzimisce>Okay fun's over, time to answer honestly>Get TzimisceThis is a bad sign.
>>746231854Tzimisce. My favorite clan I'll never get to play.
>>746248547if they wanted to get a little fancy, we even have nearly one click solutions to turn images into pbr.
>>746231854>first question: describe yourself are you an introvert or an extr-Nice quiz, asshat.
>>746228602different clans get different responses
>>746248547Yeah, If I was in charge of the xbox studios. I would tell all of them to make a small team to make ps1/ps2 styled games that can be released in 1-2 years
>>746231854i always get malk
>>746245250My guess:>A game entirely built around only playing Tzimisce, thus being able to use vicissitude properly>A CRPG where 90% of it's described rather than seen, so you can get away with simple buffs and debuffs for a lot of shit, some Creat-a-character disguises on self or allies with nosferatu parts unlocked (and maybe custom parts), and a model for Zulo form. More radical transformations occur in Tzimisce-specific dialoguesCould have the above for a non-CRPG, but it gets less impressive the more visually detailed everything is, or horrificlaly more resource intensive.
>>746233846Assamites (but gay). That's the Benny Hacks in a nutshell.
>>746249062aaa is doomed. they're stuck making half a billion dollar games as generic as possible, for maximum profit. i would have a bunch of teams making advanced 2005 games for 20 million bucks, doing everything old school, with 1 year dev times. i would put in more money and developers, but never aaa bloat.

>>746237272>spoiled rich catholic highschool girls that's even better though

>>746249062>>746249184It's kind of a question of how can you put the genie back in the bottle, graphicsfagging has reached critical mass and games either need to be heavily stylized or compete. VtM was fairly stylized but the attempt is still there to make something more or less life-like, which simply doesn't fly much anymore for AAA games. Even further, shareholders and studio execs aren't chasing consistent gains or profits, they have the big $$$ on their eyes and they WILL kill the industry over the imaginary super-gamer crowd that will buy some random shit like it's Elden Ring, but with more appeal. It's an abstract mixture of greed, retardation, and leaded gasoline huffing.
>>74624918420 million for ps1/ps2 games? I think the budget would be a lot smaller
>>746247613>another covid related death
>>746249520Modern budgets have to be adjusted for modern salaries and cost of living I suppose, and you simply can't get a group of 10-20 guys to make a game like that in a year or under anymore
>>746226291i have been playing a bunch of story mods recently (shoutout to final nights) and on nm discovered a online multiplayer mod with player vs playerit is way too fucking buggy and stutter however i have to give credit for it being possible at all
>>746234328>Edge frantically grabbing the mic before Gangrel can get it againfucking kek
>>746248547It's too advanced for most indies, who cap out at PS1 graphics usually. It is simply not a popular aesthetic either. Indie games try to be colorful and bright because they are chasing the Undertale and Hollow Knight audience of tweens who want "dark" games without actually being so dark that it's scary.
>>746248263Here you go, anon. For old times' sake.
>>746236179>V5 shadowcuntsHow are you posting this, Lasombranon?

Antedilluvian or Caine ?
>>746227484Okay Christof, thanks for the advice.
>>746249748I think this style of game could be well received, as it has enough quality to not bleed the eyes and the girls have nice boobs but retro enough to keep the imagining pumping.
>>746236405I did Night Road and I don't recall any of the gay shit outside of your faggot Asspirate- sorry, I mean /Banu Haqim/ friend who I immediately tell to fuck off in practically every playthrough because he's an insufferable cunt.Were there any others?
Who did the thing with the coffin anyway? Jack? Why would he care enough to do it and when did he get the chance?
Are there any good vtm or unrelated vampire games coming in the foreseeable future?
>>746249298Not when you want to be left the fuck alone.
>>746249776After all, why not? Why shouldn't I jerk it?
>>746250180Nah but just wait for the vtm:b decomp happening rnTons of excellent mods and games are gonna be made even more than now just with all the extra control over the engine
>>746243268>>746243356https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neolithic_decline
>>746248263such a zoom thing to think like that>wow sexy w-wait is that the creators face? Oh man I suddenly dont fond this sexy no more
>>746250329that's not what he said though
>>746239461V5 is so funny with how retarded its lore is, the idea that all of the necromancy-related clans and bloodlines just decided to buddy up together into one big happy family despite all of them utterly despising one another is just too fucking much. It's on par with shit like the Lasombra joining the Camarilla and the NSA blowing up Schrecknet.And, of course, obligatory pic related.
Hell yes
>>746250180>unrelated vampire games coming in the foreseeable future?We got The Blood of Dawnwalker, coming around the corner. It's by a new studio consisting of former Witcher devs. And this game seems to play like it except of course you're a vampire. There's also this time mechanic wherein if you engage in certain quests time will progress. You have to manage it wisely or else in 30 days your family will die. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7Jpr0_8sOk
>>746235672God I want this game to be good.Let me play as a Martial Hunter who BTFOs the fucking blanks with high caliber ordnance.
>>746250180Hive had this on my wishlist for ages. Most likely in purgatory.https://store.steampowered.com/app/1578940/Vampire_Clans/
>>746250385>Lasombra joining the CamarillaThis is literally the only part of V5 which makes sense and I am surprised so many people complain about it.
>>746250180There's a Hunter FPS RPG coming next year that had a full prototype build leaked, definitely one to keep an eye on, could be kino. It's of course based on V5 though so temper expectations.
>>746250574It just seems kind of dumb to me considering all the bullshit they'd done in the past and it's just swept under the rug because the Cammies need to make up the numbers after the Brujah and Gangrel pissed off to fuck around with the Sabbat instead. Okay never mind that maybe is something they'd do I guessStill doesn't stop it feeling like a "teams have been autobalanced" moment.
>>746250643Whats the name of it and can i see the prototype?
>>746232903>I was merely pretending to be retarded
>>746250693The Lasombra are plotting to take over the entire European Camarilla from within, as soon as the Camarilla regain their homestead clans and regrow their numbers, the Lasombra will be kicked out by some contrivance. It's a race against time for both and it's pretty cool.
>>746250385I cant believe this is real, I know it was written during peak woke but even reddt would think its too much
>>746226291>As prince, I am within my rights to grant or deny the Kindred of this city the privilege of siring. Many of you have come to me seeking permission, and I have endorsed some of these requests.That reminds me, isn't this a plot hole? Isaac sires Ash in a medical emergency, and neither of them are punished.
>>746250916It's real, anon, and it gets worse. V5 was literally so bad that it created an international incident, because it had a excerpt where they overtly implied that Chechnya was running gay concentration camps.It's the whole reason why Paradox all but shut down White Wolf. Their writers were so bad that they killed the entire studio.
>>746251179that shit is so embarassinghow did that make it past a first draft, a second draft, editors, AND the publishersseems to me a bad case of emperors new clothes
>noone posted the damsel/jeanette boob ai vidscmon
>>746251556yikers this is a blue board
>>746251276I'm pretty sure it was a case of Paradox just buying out WW solely for the license so they could make Bloodlines 2 and we all know how that went, so they were just content to let the actual WW writers do their own thing without oversight.From what I can gather, they only heard about it when the Chechnian government started contacting them about a defamation lawsuit and then it was an "oh shit shut it down" moment.
>>746250246>the vtm:b decomp happening rnWhere? First I'm hearing of it and I can't find anything.
>>746231854That reminds me, I need a new gamer chair.
>>746251136Isaac is a baron so he has power and connections. LaCroix wouldnt have the balls to touch him."Rules for thee but not for me"
>>746251695its a slop decomp made by ai but you can find more information on rpgcodex if you want to contribute
I like Ventrue aesthetics, honestly.
>>746236649Every comment about it seems to call it just painfully mediocre with some good bits here and there but dragged down by the expectations that came from calling it Bloodlines 2 and an RPG when it was really neither. I bet had they just called it something entirely different people would've been much kinder to it.
>>746252007Most jews do
>>746237637>"What if D&D, but for goth/emo/theatre kids (gay) instead?"Oh, I know the answer. It's modern DnD, right?
>>746252030I don't follow.
>>746226530He said exactly that. I was there.
>>746252014Vampire's had a long run of fairly mediocre games lately, it would have just been another forgettable one of those.The only decent ones are the VNs, and not the ones with pretty artwork like pic related, I mean the ones that are just flat text like Night Road and the other one where you play as hunters.
>>746251963Meh, I'd rather see anything happening rather than nothing. I still can't find anything though, if you have any actual links plz share.

>>746231854>You belong with the Hecata!A motley collection of necromantic vampire bloodlines, the Hecata clan are united in the pursuit of a single subject: Death. They are students of the afterlife and resurrectionists of the dead — or worse. Selling their services to the highest bidder, or acting in their own interests, there are few who can hide from the surveillance of those who can summon and command the very spirits of the deceased.
>>746231605I don't think it's possible to truly appreciate VtM:B's story without opening it. The revelation just makes everything click.

They honestly shouldn't even be playable but V5 is fucking retarded.
>>746231854Fishmalk
>>746226291
>>746226345I know what White Wolf and the game is like now, a hugbox for the dumbest American leftist shit imaginable. But would real vampires from the World of Darkness EVER give a shit about someone saying "nigger", either at them or at random? And I mean the vampires who have shed their mortality and are part of the backstabbing conga line that is vampire politics. I just cannot see why a human slur would ever mean anything to them. In my mind even a black vampire would just go, "Vulgar human expletives aside, we need to focus on the Sabbat movements downtown, now-".I seriously cannot see immortal monsters getting mad or shocked about one of the no-no words their food uses. It seems so stupid and pathetic that they ever would, though I know they're all about women's rights, anti-capitalism, social justice, lesbianism and crying now.
>>746252164Oh yeah the ones where you have to spend more time customising your gender, sexuality and pronouns than your clan and you're automatically considered gay no matter what you choose.
>>746254574There are virtually no black vampires in the game apart from the one in the last round
>>746252974It's complicated but I can help explain. Where are you?
>>746254749Blacks cant be vampires
>>746254830There's one black vampire in the last round
>>746254574One of the children of Haqim rose up one night and started a muslim massacre. The fuck are you talking about?
>>746229667>he's an asshole looking to improve his own standing and rise in the camarilla, and he's willing to do anything and kill anyone in the way of that.Oh, you mean a Ventrue lol
>>746254574No, they wouldn't. Not to say racism doesn't exist. In revised there's a Toreador Methuselah who wakes up and is appalled the clan's major hub and siring stock is now fucking Gaul.V5 is a special kind of retarded, though.
>>746226291YOU KILLED MY SUGAR MOMMY YOU FUCK! FOR IT I WILL KILL YOUR AFRICAN NIGGER DADDY WITH MY PRECISION 10 AUG
>>746255106Case in point.
>>746254574>women's rights, anti-capitalism, social justice, lesbianism and crying now.Bloodlines 2 isn't canon. Just forget it exists.
>>746254968Killing Muslims is always necessary and just whether you're kindred or kine.Also religion is not race, you stupid fucking retarded moron.
>>746231854i pick this and no matter what i pick next i would be deemed as toreador i don't mind
>>746255151This is so sicking it's hard to believe it isn't parody made by someone who really hates vampires and wants everyone else to, as well.
>>746226926theory: she's actually very average looking but constantly uses charm on player
>>746237983everytime i hear people talking about the whole WoD i learn more inane shit.i'm sticking with leeches and werewolves. mostly to enjoy hunter the parenting.it doesn't count as hunter because uhh...
>>746255106>Not to say racism doesn't exist.Racism doesn't exist.
>>746255303False. VV is simply naturally gorgeous. Her beauty and loving nature are why many a kindred has fallen for her.
>>746255232are you serious?
I think it's absurd that vampires stole ever be beholden to human systems like communism or capitalism. Sure a gangrel might be a hobo drifter with no money by choice, but that's because he doesn't fucking care about money and doesn't need it, not because he's a commie posterboy. Likewise a Ventrue might want a 1200 year old mahogany desk because it's rare or it used to be in his father's study when he was alive, and he needs money to make humans bring it to him, and money to set up his office full of the one thing vampires CAN enjoy, aesthetics. He's not a capitalist either, he does not give a shit about the process of making money, only what the money can be used for once you have it, because it's the power to make humans do literally anything you want on the other side of the world.
>>746255416Your curse is still not a race.Being men to nosferatu is like being mean to gingers.
>>746255429Man, why you gotta bring politics into everything?
this test is fucking bullshit its just one of those that latches on few answers and tells you some bullshit, not related to you at all. what the fuck is a hecata? i'm not into negromancy or anything like that. i'm literally starving loser artist, not horrid nos that looks scarier than hiroshima-nagasaki. test was made with thoughts like "toreadors are flashy and smooth-faced like edward from twilight and they talk about art like mona lisa" or "a ventru is a capitalist and wants to drink fancy blood of fart-sniffing 92 year old!" no variety or thought that modern nights toreadors might go nuclear harder than any brujah, just think that there's a butthurt online artist with inflated ego now a supernatural being FUCK
>>746254574Probably, but maybe just not as much since now you have more shit to worry about. But why would any word used to insult or demean just be completely ignored? They're not human but they don't become robots either and they'll still react to hostility. There was this Brujah racist skinhead in one of the older books and it says he kept being racist even if it changed a bit. I don't imagine someone like that would just completely change their views.I imagine it could be a disadvantage to keep holding onto those views or sexism though because there's a chance you could run into someone extremely powerful and underestimate them which would probably not end up well for you all the time.
>>746255393Nobody with an ass that flat could ever charm anyone.
>>746255151The funniest part about this is during WWII there was basically an unofficial truce between Camarilla and Sabbat where shit like POW and concentration camps were considered neutral ground for any vamps to feed and lay low in.Also yeah, following up on >>746254574, vamps in general don't give two shits about kine politics unless it starts to affect them. Shit like Rudi and his gay polycule going out at night and punching heckin' nazis with their vampire powers would get a blood hunt called down on them quick smart.
>>746256030see >>746255358
>>746256030>black criminals never robbed youWritten by a clueless apologist, probably a woman. But evidently is you've been robbed or attacked by blacks you're completely justified in being a Nazi because you have personal proof of their subhuman behaviour.
>>746256030This concept would be one of the exceptions where he's still relatively young in vamp terms and carries that with him post-Embrace, but it's also from the time when White Wolf could write characters with a bit of nuance and not just make them one-dimensional caricatures.
>>746256186see my butthole>>746256281yeah i was going to mention younger vampires would still be more likely to be that way but they specifically said vampires that have fully gotten into the supernatural predator mindset and don't think of themselves as human much anymore.>but it's also from the time when White Wolf could write characters with a bit of nuance and not just make them one-dimensional caricatures.probably not helped because of people like >>746256187
>>746256187That line's just there to further embellish the fact that the character had no real underlying reason or defining event to fall in with the ideology, just that he became friends with some other skinheads and went "hey these guys might be onto something".Not everyone has to be Batman.
>>746256386Kill yourself.
>>746231854>GangrelKnew it.
>>746254574>I seriously cannot see immortal monsters getting mad or shocked about one of the no-no words their food uses.it's just an extension of the retardation in their media where their slasher monsters might kill people and children but would NEVER misgender someone That RDR2 Arthur meme is disingenuous, but that idea DID come from media in general.
>>746256476no
>>746256281Back in the day, a player character like that would have been met with indifference and a, "Whatever you say fledgling, scary niggers sure thing" because the far more seasoned vampires didn't give a fuck and knew he would eventually stop caring about his pointless ideologies once he realised how far removed from humanity he was. These days it would be impossible to play a character like that and if it even exists in the game, it's the main antagonist. Having any opinions besides those of the US far-left is tantamount to suicide in vampire circles now.
>>746256525Yes.
>>746256530>whatever you say fledgling, scary niggers sure thingPretty much this. Even elder vamps who've been in torpor and slept through the civil rights era aren't going to wake up and go>holy shit sixty niggersthey're going to be more concerned about why their home city is now a Sabbat-ridden shithole or why the fuck their childe let all their holdings go to shit or some other vampire drama.At most they might be surprised to see more darkies around than usual but it'd probably be a mild curiosity at best, they've got more important vamp shit to worry about.
>>746256530>Having any opinions besides those of the US far-left is tantamount to suicide in vampire circles now.this shit is so fucking funny to me. I think in the former setting, Vampires would've loved the current situation and used it to gain more ground. On the other hand, I think the former setting is better because 2000's phones, cameras, and internet are easier to integrate with a story about hiding away from society than fucking Flock cameras aimed at your kid's playground repeated 160000 times across the country. Modern surveillance must be a nightmare for the Camarilla.
>>746256629maybe, idk. can you repeat the question?
>>746256856Nice, you have no counter arguments.
>>746256986you're not the boss of me now
>>746256793It just means you never use your powers outside of places you control. But on the other hand, now they'd be able to literally do anything they want and just have their paid human experts look at surveillance videos of a nosferatu turning into rats and go, "that's clearly AI".If anyone anywhere captures footage of a vampire, it'll automatically be written off as AI slop. There literally is no better defence, because humans cannot fly or outrun trains, so it's very clearly AI.
>>746256793just goes to show how shitty modern politics brained writers are. An elder or rich Ventrue being some Peter Thiel analogue propping up a poorly disguised version of Bad Orange Man to among many other things, use ICE camps as a feeding farm as a story angle basically writes itself Instead they just have people who would logically not give a fuck saying "trans rights"
>>746257056How many genders are there?
>>746257146>But on the other hand, now they'd be able to literally do anything they want and just have their paid human experts look at surveillance videos of a nosferatu turning into rats and go, "that's clearly AI".>If anyone anywhere captures footage of a vampire, it'll automatically be written off as AI slop. There literally is no better defence, because humans cannot fly or outrun trains, so it's very clearly AI.That's actually a pretty good point. There would be a ton more rumors and hearsay but it IS pretty good cover. Makes you wonder about how alien discourse will change soon, too.
