You know what was funny, when i worked for ATVI everyone on the team of Bloodlines said the game was horrid

I was making a comparison as I happen to like both games... guess I should have stayed on topic... sorry.

the original vampire: the masquerade was a decent game built upon one of the most glorious multiplayer engine's I've ever dealt with.

I didn't ever buy this game because of that lack of multiplayer. :(

I'll buy it when it's in a bargain bin somewhere. :P

I ... am ... trying ...

But I can't stay attached to this game. I'm so disappointed, given my love of the HL2 engine and my interest in things macabre and White Wolf, that this game wasn't a slam dunk.

I was really impressed with this game. Good to see w thread for it. I didnt really mind much until then end. Going with the camrilla it took FOREVER to get through.

This game runs like crap.

It is such a good game though.

I picked this back up. I pushed through the insipid early quests and am really enjoying it. I wonder how much flexibility is offered if I want to go Anarch vs. Camarilla?

I know I'm sorta dragging up an old thread, but I couldn't help myself.

I was completely in love with this game even before I owned it. Seriously. I absolutely love the storyline, the different endings, the character interactions... everything.

My computer isn't the greatest, but the game was still runnable... I'm good at ignoring stutters, especially when I love the game. And believe me, I love this game... so I'm willing to put up with all the stutters and 10 second freezes I'll get in some places, just to play the game again and again.

The first time I played, I chose the female Malkavian. I'll tell you what, I was amused to no ends by some of the dialogue options and reactions you'd get. "Oh damn, you're a fucking Malkavian! Ahaha!" It was great. I remember an option where I got to convince someone I was a turtle they'd flushed down their toilet when they were a kid. :lol:

Not to mention, the Malkavian female is probably the most attractive character you can play. It was fun playing a seductive crazy woman.

Yeah, this game is really awesome. My last two posts on this thread complained about bad framerates, but once I upgraded my comp I didn't have any problems. I'm running an amd64 3700, geforce 6600GT, 1gig of ram, and the game runs fine now. It really helped me appreciate the game a lot more.

I played through the game as a male Toreador... max level celerity is awesome.

Shylone - The only reason I didn't play a female char, is that all the dialouge is geared towards male players I noticed!

Heh, a lot of the dialogue changes when you play a female character. Stats like seduction are a lot more useful for female characters, because there are a lot more male NPC's in the game to seduce than female NPC's. On top of that, I've noticed that females have a better chance of seducing other females than males having a chance of seducing other males.

Yeah, the entire game is geared towards a guy/lesbian. LOL

I don't mind though, because it's just a game, and I still have fun... even if there is only one guy I know of that you can have any real fun with.
