Incredibly bad
Wow... Just, wow. As most of us, I first played and enjoyed a masterpiece known as Vampire The Masquerade: Bloodlines. Having replayed it too much, I decided it was time to look for something similar. Lo and behold, bloodlines actually has a predecessor! From the looks of the trailer, I could tell it was gonna be similar to neverwinter nights or something, which didnt bother me too much. Pen and paper has its own appeal. After spending reasonable time playing this game, quitting it and giving it second chances, all I can say is this: *This game is complete garbage* And that is a shame, since the premise, the story and the voice acting had such promise. The real issue this game has is the gameplay. My god the gameplay... As with most pen-and-paperesque games, theres gonna be autoattacking and spellcasting. However, the UI and camera is horrendous. I mean, you put so much effort on creating a 3d game engine, custom game mechanics, a rich game world and whatnot, only to completelly destroy the endproduct with a UI which is incredibly intrusive and unhelpful, and an unwieldy camera. But, lets say you encountered worse, and that the UI and camera arent that big a deal. You also have a manual which explains all the stuff UI doesn't. Perfect, all is well, right? Wrong! The final nail in the coffin for me, every time I give this game a second chance, is the AI. The AI is so crippling and undermining that it takes away every bit of fun you can have in this game. Your companions use skills uncontrollably, spending their resources like madman, their actions cannot be queued and their behavior is erratic. The worst part is that they actually give you an option to limit the use of resources for the AI but guess what... These options don't work. The conclusion of this review is the following: Avoid this game like the plague. Nothing good can come out of it. The garbage runs deep with this one.
