How about we just get the finished version of the game instead, with all the cut content properly patched in?

>>376550217
and release it on every platform on earth, I would play it on my smartphone, even while shitting

what's different about a malkavian run? is it just dialogue stuff?

All in all, I'd rather we get a new Vampire: The Masquerade game, with much improved visuals, expanded Discipline powers, more character customization in terms of looks and fashion, Clan-unique Embraces and havens,l and of course a wide range of Clans and bloodlines to play as.

In other words, NEVER EVER!

Only one that really compares is Thaumaturgy

>>376551501
thaumaturgy is the strongest, so lol

>>376549075
I play it. It's actually pretty decent but the only disadvantage is you use an older version of the unofficial patch. But still, the content you get with it is okay and camarilla lite that comes with it changes things up a bit.

Nah, I play it because it's one of the few decent vampire video games.

>>376552213
it also gets bloodshield which no other discipline has something similar to. burrowing beetle in animalism is basically blood strike but with no blood return

>>376552940
once you max out all the passive defense skills you're pretty much invincible.

>>376552940
fortitude is just better blood shield

I downloaded the GoG version of this game does it include the missing content?

Next best thing to Nyaa.

>>376548051
it got to convoluted somewhere along the way.
lots of bugs and requires a list of good mods for the best experience, which at the time I played simply weren't there.
overall it's a good RPG but surely among the most overrated, for understandable reasons. the setting, atmosphere and core role playing concepts are very cool.

Well in game you don't get fortitude if you're a tremere. correct me if I'm wrong but Fortitude is the only thing in game that really prevents aggravated damage outside of some unique items

>>376549908
yeah I actually got into the series by this game which I still think is arguably better than Bloodlines for its better setting and a stronger protagonist. it's heavily flawed but so is Bloodlines.

I've been enjoying all these Bloodlines threads the past few weeks.

I picked it up last week and enjoyed everything but the Ming Xia fight and the ending.

>>376554368
christoff does a lot of ~unholy~ shit but it only matters when the game decides it affects your faith count

>>376548051
I couldn't tell you because I still have never played it. Only seen whatever pictures /v/ puts up

>>376554592
Your dialogue choices effect your humanity which decides which ending you get.

>>376554665
ending is determined by faith, not humanity

>>376554763
You don't even have the faith stat after you turn into a vampire, endings are decided by humanity. I remember having to go murder people to lower mine since I wanted to see every ending.

>>376554834
you have a starting faith as a human and the game keeps track of it as you progress through the game after being embraced

>>376548146
Seriously? Pisha?
Thats "cock" in spanish

>>376549908

Redemption actually has a decent story but the voice acting and the gameplay kind of kneecap it.

>>376555028
>'Good' ending
>The player will see this ending if Christof has a humanity of 50 or more. The higher any vampire's humanity, the lesser the chance they will Frenzy.
>'Neutral' ending
>The player will see this ending if Christof has a humanity of 49 or 26 or any number in between. Many players find the two additional problems of a living Vukodlak and eternal servitude to him worse than the prospect of a Christof run amok in the "evil" ending. Note that the lower any vampire's humanity, the greater the chance they will Frenzy.
>'Bad' ending
>The player will see this ending if Christof has a humanity of 25 or less. Note that very low humanity increases the chance of Frenzy greatly.

faith = humanity

>>376554209
this is truth, we can say the game is good now that there's up to 9.0 patches that keep fixing problems from the original release, it's kinda impressive that the original game got such a following that someone was committed to so much work
basically the game is still in Beta phase 10 years after release

>>376555454
the spot on your stat page where faith was is replaced with humanity when you turn into a vampire but they're different stats, i don't even know if faith does anything.

>>376548051
but anon, i did tell you. the last parts of the game were a lot worse than most of the game though.

>>376555514

When it came out there really wasn't anything like it. It was pretty easy to overlook the bugs just because what was done well was done incredibly well. It's not really all that surprising.

>>376548051
>Why didn't you guys tell me this game was so god damned good?

i was too busy compulsively masturbating to the ingame model where half of her is Therese and the other half Jeantte

>>376555659
it's a scale. faith is human humanity basically. in multiplayer if you're faith was too low you couldn't use certain weapons the same way if your humanity is too high as a vampire.

>there are people in this thread RIGHT NOW that opened it

>>376555739
what does surprises me, although it might be the 10 years of bug fixing is how stable it is compared to HL2 in my case, even when I have no problem running VTM, HL2 slows down on me from time to time or if I'm using something else in the background sometimes I get framedrops with too many enemies

however VTM has more common bugs, door/item prompts that never appear, missing NPCs and once I started jumping next to Jack and pushed him all the way to the exit, causing me to be unable to leave the room

>>376548051

/v/ I'm worried about downloading this

I don't know anything about pirating, especially an old ass game like this, can it even run on windows 10?

>>376548051
Why is this game so good, why is it so shilled on /v/?

>>376556039

You'll need the unofficial patch to run on any system with more than 4 gigs of RAM but I don't think Windows 10 should have any problems. It has a comparability mode doesn't it? Just play around with that if you have any problems.

>>376548051

The role playing and atmosphere in this game is absolutely ridiculous, it's in my top ten games of all time. Too bad the unnofficial patch don't put some of the masterpieces back into the soundtrack:

>shilled
it's called a cult game for a reason.

>>376556232

will I have to mount it to my cd player or some shit? do you know?

>>376556672

I've got an old box copy so I couldn't tell you. I have to start it from the disc but I think the most common version from steam won't require that.

Would any of you anons agree to become a vampire?

And before you say yes, consider this idea I've been contemplating; there may not be continuity of consciousness for when you become a vampire.

Within the lore of Werewolf the Apocalypse, they find Vampire's to be relatively disgusting because they consider them to simply be undead shells inhabited by corruption spirits, which is why they are extremely reluctant to cooperate with vampires in any way.

So here's the idea. When a human is turned to a vampire, their human "soul" for the lack of a better word actually disappeared, and it is replaced with a kind of corruptive essence that fills in the cracks of the body and mind. Because it inhabits the human mind that was left behind, it can only construct its being as that of the human body it inhabits, as that is what gives it form. But despite its access to memories, its not the same being in any way.

This would also explain the beast lurking within at the edge of every vampire's consciousness. It's the pull of inhumanity that is only held at bay by the remaining physical constructs of the human's consciousness, but the beast is now representative of their soul.

ALL THAT SAID, I think I would roll the fucking dice on being a vampire because it's just that good and the 99% chance of it effectively being suicide for my continuity of consciousness doesn't really worry me.

>>376556408
>Too bad the unnofficial patch don't put some of the masterpieces back into the soundtrack:
It does
the recent plus versions have that second track in the warrens, and the other one is around somewhere. I think a big reason a lot of the cut stuff was cut is that there aren't a whole lot of good places to put them, outside of hollywood pt 2, which I think goes with the warrens perfectly

>>376556876
>Would any of you anons agree to become a vampire?
No, being a fucking vampire is shit, literally all the benefits you get are only god tier if you remain mortal.
Wanna be famous super star and charm everyone ? Well you cant now. Wanna be super star MVP Athlete ? Well you can't. Wanna pull mad puss ? Well you dick doesn't work unless you invest blood points and then its only for emotional purposes only. Also people are hunting you for being a vampire, also bunch of people you don't know that have been alive for ages longer than they should have are telling you what to do and what rules to follow and can kill you for what ever reason. Also you have to leave any semblance of your past life behind. etc etc

>>376557298

Not to mention that you're not really in control anymore. You spend every waking minute fending off the beast and even if you can do that there's always a chance your great great great granddad vampire even older than the pile of dirt that's bossing you around could wake up and cause your blood to basically hijack your body and make you go insane. And all that is if you're a lucky fucker and aren't blood bound. If that happens you're just fucked.

>>376557298
I don't want to be famous, I want to live in the sewer drinking rats and shitposting forever.

>>376557298
why would i ever want to be famous?
i just want to be an immortal neet and spend eternity playing vidya

>>376557298
>No, being a fucking vampire is shit, literally all the benefits you get are only god tier if you remain mortal.
Or if you think really small and have little ambition.

Yeah, if you just want to live mortal life but better it's fucking shit to be a vampire.

But you're not making that kind of trade-off for nothing, as it IS a trade-off.

In return for your ability to function as a mortal, you are granted great power and influence. You can kill basically whoever you want, you can compel whatever you want from whoever you want, and you can dominate society from the shadows however you want in addition to living a fairly exciting life in general.

If you want to go to work, make money as a wageslave, fuck your wife and have some plump children, yeah, being a vampire is fucking gay.

But if you want to transcend human peasantry and really get a shot at having a huge amount of impact on the world, you don't need to become famous. In a way, becoming a vampire is the easy way out.

Not to mention >>376557606

You could always become internet famous or some shit. Applying your vampiric skill to being the best fucking twitch streamer on the planet would be pretty rewarding, and that's if you think small.
