Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption

Aged now, but great story, runds fine on Win 11

Play this instead of the butchered garbage that is Bloodlines 2.

While not exact to V:TM lore, this is an action RPG all in its own right which was revolutionary. I'm seeing people compare it to Bloodlines, but they are really totally different games, made almost half a decade later. As far as ambiance, setting, and story line, this game was amazing, even in modern times. The track that plays immediately after wakening from the dark ages in a modern world, the implementation of weapons, everything was excellently managed. This game actually defined RPGs for me, albeit in a different genre, But it still stands with BG, NWN, and IWD as one of the classics of the 00's. This game isn't perfect, by any means. However, it's worth doing a playthrough on the single-player campaign for anyone who just enjoys an immersive, well-written and well-made game

Clearly this game is one of the few games to stand the test of time. While the graphics are dated, the powerful story line appeals to those who want more than a hack and slash, with a tired story line. This game will stay on your hard drive for decades to come. Pros: Engaging storyline - this game pulls you in, if you like RPGs, and will have to wanting to see what happens next. Though not quite a "just one more turn" entrapment, it will still consume much of your time. Excellent voice acting - Where this game gets it is in the two main characters, and may of hte supporting actors. It is on par with Mass Effect or Dragon Age. Cons Linear story - this game came out when there were very few open world games (like GTA Vice City), though it could have been a bit more varied in its outcome. There are three paths, and each path is generally laid out for you. Be crazy and kill everything or work to understand the vampire lore and keep the Masqerade. Lack of control - perhaps the worst part is the excessive use of the mouse to control all the actions. It would have been nice to use the standard Quake control layout but..... at the time, there wasn't a true standard for game layouts on PC.

Vampire: The Masquerade Redemption was my first proper vampire game, and i loved every bit of it. Right now with this disccount it's the perfect time to try it out. It has dated graphics and kind of clunky controls by today standards...but it stills have a great story and trully amazing gameplay & skills. Back in the day i LOVED the multiplayer...but it seems servers were closed long time ago... Still a great vampire game! I am currently playing it along with the new "Vampyr" just released… I got bloodthirsty :P 100% recommended at this Price. Works perfectly on Windows 10
