213374U Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 BloodLines 2 is set in the new WoD, not the Gothic inspired one from the first game, right? Any other major differences we should be aware of, other than art style? Official website here, btw. I notice there are 5 clans listed, and one bonus, so that's one less than the original Bloodlines. Wonder which one got axed, I hope it's not the Malkavians. But maybe some don't exist in the new WoD, kinda know nothing about it tbh (except that they moved away from the Gothic look, unfortunately) The revised WoD setting is Vampire: The Requiem, isn't it? Wouldn't them using "the Masquarade" indicate its set in the same world as the original game? Yes. Vampire: The Masquerade has been (re-)continued, and the latest revision (v5) was released just last year. I'm not sure what's the status of the Requiem setting at this point, but I think both are active franchises at this point. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.

Wonder which one got axed, I hope it's not the Malkavians. But maybe some don't exist in the new WoD, kinda know nothing about it tbh (except that they moved away from the Gothic look, unfortunately) Since it's Vampire Masquerade, the generations closer to the methuselas has disappeared and thinbloods are more prevalent. Looking at what they've written, you are one of these. It's possible that you were embraced by the Sabbat aswell since they are generally the ones that deal in mass embracing people, but I don't know if the Camarilla has done a 180 on this. Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

Gorgon Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 So when ? Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all.
ShadySands Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 GOG said March 31 2020 but I'm pretty sure it's just a placeholder Free games updated 3/4/21

melkathi Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 (edited) GOG said March 31 2020 but I'm pretty sure it's just a placeholder Steam just says March 2020. GMG Also says 31st.

Majek Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Seems like Chris Avellone is working on it. At this point it'd be easier to list projects Chris Avellone is not working on. He has Into the Breach in his credits ffs. So? He already worked with them on FTL:Advanced edition. 1.13 killed off Ja2.
Azdeus Posted March 23, 2019 Posted March 23, 2019 (edited) The Anarchs work with random embraces as well. Even if it is just to spite the older vamps. Sure, but nowhere near as much as the Sabbat, I'm just going for what I think is most likely.

It's not The New World of Darkness (Chronicles of Darkness). V5 starts in 2008 with the metaplot being Gehenna itself. On a side note, you start as a THINBLOOD vampire, you are not part of the clans. You were created during a mass embrace by someone. Edited March 23, 2019 by Vitalis

Smiling Jack "mentors" you in the tutorial, while in the pen and paper he was known for embracing in camarilla cities and moving on to cause chaos. 2 Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).

evilcat Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/990500595/subverse The plot aside the gameplay looks fine.

marelooke Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Bethesda is giving away free copies of Morrowind GOTY through their Bethesda.net launcher when using the code "TES25TH-MORROWIND" to celebrate 25 years of The Elder Scrolls. Since they are apparently having some capacity issues they've extended the give-away through the weekend (worked just fine for me though).
the_dog_days Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 (edited) https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/990500595/subverse Yeah, the tagline is pure gold. Since the dawn of time, humankind has stared up at the cosmos with a mixture of trepidation and wonder. Turning our curious eyes toward the glittering stars speckled around our little blue planet, we have often asked ourselves the eternal question: Are we alone in this universe? What is out there? More importantly… can we bone it? I appreciate the honesty, at least. Edited March 25, 2019 by the_dog_days 2
