A poor copy of the original. Don’t expect anything even remotely close to Troika’s Bloodlines. The feeling is that it’s more of a generic action game than Vampire: The Masquerade. Some basic elements are there: the need to feed, the sense of feeling powerful compared to mortals, and a bit of the Camarilla’s political game. But everything feels very watered down. The clans: almost meaningless. It doesn’t have abilities like the original TTRPG; it’s more like a graphic adventure in that sense. As an RPG, there’s very little. As an action game, it’s passable. As a story, it’s interesting. But it doesn’t even come close to the original.
Its a hard game. Doesnt have a dificulty setting, so expect to be stuck at points.
I have played and finished the game, and its is simply wonderful. The graphics, the sound, the history (a big big EPIC history) is good too. Some bugs, yeah, but the team seems to fix the error pretty quick. Worth it, completely, and expecting more games from the company behind it.
I just finished the game, in my first playthrough. I really, really wish there were a second, a third, and forth installment of this game, because i cant get enough! The histories within histories, the flair of the world, the art, the charactaers, the story...its all amazing, really. Incredible, really. Better than most AAA games in years. I hear that some are comparing this with Planescape Torment. I find that comparison just, and i dont know who i will choose for best game (until now, Planescape Torment was my absolute best of all times).
I have finished the game, and i can say honestly that a have received a most than good return for mi investment in it. Its is true that the game has an end, although the end does not resolve any misteries. But it set up a sequel or continuation very well. If one thinks about the budget with the producers work, goes from good a incredible amazing. The hand draw art its very good, and the feeling of the game its perfect. I only can wait for more installments of this game, because now a have a Mania, a craving for playing mopre and more of this.
