Help me with setting for Vampire the Masquerade, please.
I'm making a game set in Las Vegas, but I'm torn between making it in the 60's/70's, or in 90's/00's, if I choose 60's/70's then I can have the Rat Pack, organized crime, Howard Hughes type character, but I can't have the goth-punk culture, as it was intended.
>>
Just do it in the 80s.
>>
>>53417362
But then it's just 80's, there's no Mafia, there's no charismatic background, the new casinos were built, and again, there's no people that look like they came out from Matrix, no distinct atmosphere, or music.
>>
>>53417470
Do you think there is no more Mafia in Vegas? They never left.
>>
I agree with >>53417362.

Vegas has its own unique charm pretty much regardless of the era because that "mystique" is still there. It's glityz and bright, but there's always seedy shit going on behind the lights. Now mix that with the glam of the 80s. More neon. More clubs. Drugs. Guns. I'd play the shit out of that setting.
>>
>>53416738
You set it whenever you want. Fuck "intended."

Although, if you set it modern day, you could still have some anachronistic elements. Like Howard Hughes. They just became a vampire then and never adapted to later eras.
>>
>>53417497
Sure there is, but it's not so pronounced.
>>53417555
True, but then I still have problem with the music, cars and little things. I think I'll just put it in late 70's, though, so there would be an underground club scene, the electronic music being born, and also the atmosphere of the 70's.
>>53417559
I was thinking of this, or just making an alternate reality, although I wouldn't like to go too far with it.
>>
>>53416738
Always do the golden age of Vegas.

Always.
>>
Considering they're all vampires, you could technically do several of them if you want since they won't age. Might even be neat to see how the characters react to each era and watch them long for people and places long gone.
>>
Which places in the Vegas region should I put?
What are some notable places I could use?

Put it in the 60s/70s. Then watch Casino.

Screw gothic punk. It's an attitude, not a subculture, at least for VtM purposes. If it's that important to you, put it in the mid 70s and you have very early punk, new wave, and goth.

Vegas was fun in the 90s, but very different. Post 9/11, things changed a lot and goth was dead by then anyway.
