Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption

I've played the game ~15 years ago and it was one of my favourite games back then. I'm sure the reviews pointing out repetitive, linear gameplay and old school camera movement are right, it's likely that i was annoyed by it when i played through the game back then, BUT i don't remember any of that, because the game has great atmosphere. What i remeber is the voice of Serena, the great music, the sound of the footsteps in the snow at Vienna, the graphics at Vienna, Christoph's cries when he gets burned by sunlight and similar stuff related to atmosphere. It was magical. I guess the graphics are still ok(old graphics probably aren't a concern for you while shopping on gog) since it was among the most beatiful games when it came out. If you think you can let yourself slip into this game's world it definetely worth a try. Even if certain gameplay elemetns will annoy you, in a decade you will only remember a game with a great atmoshere that you want to experience again.

After seeing some negative revieuws about this game regarding combat and AI I had to place this message so people don't get scared by that. Combat is easy if build correctly and very hard if build wrong, you can solo the whole game and just leave the AI for what it is making the game allot more fun. (Spells-->feral claw)( stat DEX-STR-WITS)(Manipulation if high enough you can buy items and sell them back for more gold). For me this is the best vampire game i have played so far with a good balance between action and story.

Too many enemies Trade menu is uncomfortable Too many stuff you don't really need (items and abilities) Most bullet-spongiest last boss ever So basically game is old But still have interesting story and visuals, glad I've done it, even if with cheats for last part of a game

This game does very little well. It has mindless hack and slash combat vs the same 3 - 4 enemies over and over and over. The companion AI is some of the worst I've ever seen in a video game. If you insist on buying this and playing it, leave your party at the door and go solo. The story offers no chance at actually roleplaying, except for the end of the game. However, the music and atmosphere of the game is good for the era it was created in. That's the only nice thing I have to say about this game.

I've played this a few years ago, and overall I really enjoyed it. However, it was very buggy! Most of the bugs are easy to ignore. The game does get a bit boring towards the end, though.
