qaz156 Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Since Troika went under, how about Obsidian does Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines 2 for the pc? That game was awesome and I definitely think a lot of the designers at Obsidian would agree that that game was great. I would personally like to see Chris Avellone take a crack at it, since he likes the darker stuff anyway. Also if anyone knows the status of a sequel please let me know. But Obsidian, I would be pleased if you somehow found yourselves doing that project in the near future. IN fact I would be rather excited. "To be, or not to be a real RPG, that is the question. Whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows or outrageous action... or by taking up arms against a sea of crap and by opposing: end them."

Musopticon? Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I concur. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food. Those who were too weak to survive were sent to Sweden. It has made me the man I am today. A man who craves furry hentai.

CoM_Solaufein Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I agree with that whole heartily. Obs has the some of the people who did Bloodlines and they have other great people on their staff to make a good VtM game.

mkreku Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Maybe this time around they would have the technical skills to not make the game "leak" and behave like a total system hog. Imagine the fluidity of Half-Life 2 in the world of Bloodlines.. I dig! I would much prefer they switched engines completely though. As much as I enjoyed the incredible lip sync of Half-Life 2, I'd rather see bigger maps and less loading times in between them. Nothing kills immersion as much as constant loading screens.

Hell Kitty Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I'd much rather see a CRPG of Vampire: The Requiem. The different factions in that are much more interesting. I'd imagine White Wolf would prefer a game with the new stuff rather than the old, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoM_Solaufein Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Requiem setting would be good. I like the Source engine on how it made the characters looked and the realistic backgrounds.

mkreku Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 (edited) Well, the Unreal Engine 3 is the hot item of today, so basically I was hoping they'd use that engine instead. It supports streaming maps, so the possibility is there for game creators to make loading sscreens much less common. That's assuming that the invisible loading is as well done as in Dungeon Siege 2.. or GTA: San Andreas.. or perhaps World of Warcraft.. Also, there's a third party software that's usable with Unreal Engine 3 that can provide the same lip sync as in Half-Life 2. (http://www.epicgames.com/press_facefx.html) Edit: Link messed up.

Surreptishus Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 U3 is damned impressive. I'd take streaming maps over curvaceous looking buttocks anyday. On thing i've noticed is that the character models look Shrek-like, its not a bad thing at all but it does amuse me, especially when i think that PNJ may feature snow white style dwarves...

Judge Hades Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Just as long as they keep the cheese factor out of it whatever engine they use it should be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurlshort Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Wasn't there already a game that came out based on Vampire: The Requiem? I could be wrong, but I know there was a previous Vampire game before Bloodlines. I think it sold pretty well. It had a Dungeon Master utility that unfortunately didn't work at all. Anyways, I'd love Obsidian to do a sequel to Bloodlines, but it probably depends on how well the original did. It was a solid title, so if it didn't meet the sales expectations, then I doubt we'll see a sequel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveThaiBinh Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 There was a game called Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption. I liked VtM:B a lot, so I looked into this, but the reviews were mostly poor and I didn't fancy it. I'd play a VtM sequel, but I wonder how commercially successful it would be since the first game is associated with Troika's collapse. With the fantasy film genre experiencing a revival, maybe there are some promising movie tie-ins for Obs. to look at? "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."

Volourn Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 "Wasn't there already a game that came out based on Vampire: The Requiem? I could be wrong, but I know there was a previous Vampire game before Bloodlines. I think it sold pretty well." It bombed. And, with good reason. It was an awful, awful, awful game. POR2 awful - if not worse. Even BL's weaknessses ar ebetter than that Vampire game's strengths. Horrid, horrid game. It gives me fictional nightmares just think about the horribility of it. BL is a good but flawed game. The other one is just BLANK. And, LOL, about the werewolf. Still, I seriously doubt this thread will go anywehrre. It's 99% guarantee that Obsidian will make BL2. Of course, now they will just to prove me wrong. Ha. DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judge Hades Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 I will admit that I liked Bloodlines up to that point. However I don't think Obsidian should do a sequel to Bloodlines. What I would like to see is a full WoD game that gives us a full city to play around in. From the depths of the sewers to the loftiest skyscrappers. Chicago would be cool.

Diogo Ribeiro Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 (edited) Vampire: Redemption met with failure for being what Neverwinter Nights was but without the extensive technical support and the supportive fanbase. I'm not sure there's the possibility of a sequel to Bloodlines still set in the Bloodlines mythos. Likely, it would be set in the Requiem era.

Judge Hades Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 That is why I think just a World of Darkness CRPG, not Vampire, Mage, or Werewolf. A general WoD environment in which the player makes an average joe who can get him or herself mixed up in wierd crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
