CoM_Solaufein Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Usefull against hunams in anywhere in the game, but the blood cost is too high. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> A shame that it gives you the feeling of the need to feed once you use it often. Just make sure you don't kill all of the humans when you use it, free blood source.

Judge Hades Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Only they have the vampire powers that can feed buggers as a range attack. Personally I just like to use the flame thrower. BURN PRINCE! BURN! You to you ventrue bastard! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atreides Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 What's the difference with the range thing? Can't a strong melee character feed on vampires the conventional way? Spreading beauty with my katana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musopticon? Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Yep, diablerie is not allowed. It's a feature. 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.

Lets break it down. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ok, I wanted to know if feeding on other vapires in Bloodlines (just the game, I know diablerie's in the setting) is in, especially in combat (Quest spoilers would be nice info too). Gabs said no, but Hades said Tremeres can. Then people said no, but it's a feature. Helpplskthx Spreading beauty with my katana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musopticon? Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 Aah, the only way you can get vampires blood in Bloodlines is either through the Tremere spells(they steal blood each time they hit), vampire vitae(blood bags) or by fighting against vampires and feeding on the blood stored in your artifact. No feeding on vampires, so no diablerie. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food.

Darth Drabek Posted January 29, 2006 Share Posted January 29, 2006 OK, time to pile on about how great Malk dialogue is. I love the monikers that they come up with.... ESPECIALLY the conversations with Skelter. Absolutely fantastic...if you're a Beatles fan, play as a Malk. baby, take off your beret everyone's a critic and most people are DJs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgon Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 (edited) The voice acting was excellent. Remember one of the fist levels where you had to find whatshisname the psychiatrist Malkavian. The gramophone recordings of his observations and considerations were hilarious. Some really good map areas in there, and some really bad ones as well. This game would have been a classic if they had bothered/ had the time to tie up loose ends and fix bugs. The quei jin slimeball boss was legend. As was the assault on their lair. Edited January 30, 2006 by Gorgon Na na na na na na ... greg358 from Darksouls 3 PVP is a CHEATER. That is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weiser_Cain Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I hate to be a downer, but I think the only way RPGs are going to have significantly better combat animations is if the number of base weapon types available are greatly reduced. That's one reason KOTOR had far superior animations to, say, Neverwinter Nights - there's basically five, maybe six weapons animation sets (One-handed Blade, Double-ended Weapon, Dual-Wielded Blades, Single-handed Blaster, Two-Handed Blaster and Double-Wielded Blasters). NWN had to support Axes, Clubs, Whips, Exotic weapons and all other kinds of craziness. And, when it comes to animator time, you can either spend time making a lot of different animations for a few base weapon types, or relatively few animations for a lot of different weapons. Personally, I think the balance will be shifting towards fewer weapons, as the large variety of weapons in a D&D game isn't necissarily that exciting - five different ways to deal 1d6 aren't always necessary, and DR doesn't factor into the equation often enough or in interesting enough ways to make including every single weapon type from the PHB worthwhile. On the other hand, something like Fallout is great because you can have a ton of different weapons that use similar animations. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Slightly off topic but interesting http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diablerie Yaw devs, Yaw!!!
