0 replay value. The combat system is horrendously bad, the rpg elements an after thought; had a hard time finding a game in there, felt again like some interactive movie walking simulator, which ironically made the dude in the dudes head parts the better part of the "game". The story telling was actually not that bad, predictable B-Movie tire but for a film noire inspired plot okay. And dead to every animator; no, I don't want to look at the same boring sequence of pre scripted 10 seconds camera pans and movements for a stealth kill/ feeding, an action I have to perform n-times, STOP IT, fire/ outsource the animators and hire more programmers!

Went for Tremere and the entire game was a sequence of Prototyping up walls and sliding over roof tops, randomly feeding on npcs, constantly breaking the masquerade and for the instances - Dominate the biggest enemy, attack the second biggest enemy, blood curse the third biggest enemy, throw shit at him and clean up with blood dagger
 
Well, i replaying again the game as a Ventrue.
I think is my favorite clan for being so tanky and having utility with Dominate. Automatic weapons close to enemies and Prescence is fucking broken.
The cons are so low which you need only make Seduction as second-priority only from Persuasion.
 
because for some fucking reason he can't suck randoms like Phyre can.
I was watching Outstar's playthrough. She was this game's creative director and worked on audio and trailers. She has some insights on the development of this game and explains some of it's lore. According to her Fabien is a consensual blood sucker. LOL
You will learn to hate the running back and forth - it's genuinely maddening they didn't recognize how bad it is. I liked Fabien but his segments suck: it's even more running around but there's no Vampire Elder wall climbing superspeed to keep it from getting dull.
Apparently they absolutely knew that being suddenly slow and crippled sucks, which is why they added the ability to sprint as Fabien. I don't know which is worse.
 
He does the usual gaming shill routine though of absolving the developers of all responsibility and blaming the publisher solely, which just isn't the case.
All the excuses for Chinese Room basically sound like Paradox hired them to make Bloodlines 2, they refused to do their jobs and somehow should be applauded for that.
The original Rebar Killer was Campbell. The modern Rebar Killer was Fabien.
Or is was Safiya, or it was someone we've never met; as Fabien says, we'll never know because this mystery was filler.
As an experiment I repeatedly threw dead Bodies and shit off the roof and it BARELY went green. Fired a gun downward multiple times next to a cop and got no reaction. You have to intentionally fuck up to get staked in this game, and so far I haven't gotten anything on normal.
Or you could be like me and have enemies spawn just close enough to the street that they regularly open fire on the police, which causes the masquerade to break and somehow this is my fucking fault when I literally can't intervene without breaking the masquerade more.

Best part is that Fruitzilla the Nosferatu is constantly stalking you while shoveling down estrogen just waiting to stake you for an offense. Adds an extra edge of frustration to the fact that he shows up repeatedly making requests of the 400 year old Elder.

Lol or your like me on normal right now and listening to frequent cop gunfights in the background with nothing happening. Bodies rain from the sky and no one cares.

I laugh when it’s compared to NewVegas.
We need to remember that studios don't make games. People make games. If someone makes a game and slaps "Obsidian" on it, it does not automatically make it another New Vegas \ Torment \ KotOR 2, especially if none of the people involved in making those classics are involved in making the new slop.

I’m interested to see how many people that were still at Obsidian that worked on Outerworlds and New Vegas.
 
Around 45 seconds in he shows a method of quickly traveling that beats animation cancelling, dodge rolling, and bunny hopping

God this game is fucking retarded. Also the tremere melee combat is beating people up with gang signs?
 
Keep in mind that his primary rival in the search for lore and knowledge is Sascha Vykos (yes, that Sascha Vykos), so he's either very lucky, very skilled, very powerful, or a mix of all three.

Tsimisce are flesh warpers, tend to actively seek to shed their humanity to achieve a biological form of apotheosis, and this has been a feature of Vykos for ages, as in they've been like this since 1e. This wasn't a woke edit, Sascha sheds guises like suits, like many a Fiend do. It means nothing when you are literally a man of 1,000 faces, some of them stolen probably.

Let's not pretend the tranny shit is in there for any other purpose than for there to be tranny shit.
