Words you definitely don't want to see a deputy CEO of a video game publisher to say.

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 - Pax West 2023 trailer "Coming Fall 2024"

[paarthursass]

girls don't want vtmb2 with a preset voiced protagonist. they want remastered vtmb with a full character creator, the homophobia and racism and xenophobia removed, AND the ability to kiss a nosferatu sloppy style

A more in-depth interview with Paradox Interactive VP of World of Darkness Sean Greaney, as well as Alex Skidmore, creative director of Bloodlines 2!

Still set in Seattle, now during a holiday snowstorm

The most shocking thing here is we play an Elder. In v5! An elder!!!

who attracts SI attention oh dear

The article author speculates we will have something like The Dark Urge in Baldur's Gate 3, which encourages the player to pick up their pre-nap time personality and goals.

What the world really needs right now is vampires, and I am more than happy to oblige.

also "silent protagonists aren't immersive" my "immersion" in a game has been broken so much more by voiced protagonists saying The Wrong Fucking Thing than it has been by me having to use my brain to read dialogue options.

vtmb may be buggy as hell. it may have textures that load incorrectly sometimes so you've got doors that are half a stop sign. but i still get so drawn into the story that the ocean house hotel level manages to scare me every time. it's still so so tragic to watch how heather descends into her obsession with you if you make her your ghoul. it's satisfying to be able to have 5 different ways to tell lacroix to go fuck himself. and it's fascinating how, depending on which clan you pick, you have an entirely different experience - not just playstyle-wise, but interaction-wise as well! there's certain dialogue with maximillian strauss you only get if you're a tremere. your opinion of gary golden is going to change MASSIVELY depending on whether you play a nosferatu or a toreador.

voiced protagonists don't create immersion. fancy bells and whistles don't create immersion. good writing does.

My entery for" Bloodlines 2 Fan Art Contest "

In Bloodlines 1 you were a new vampire in a city with a large Anarch presence where the Camarilla don’t have complete dominance. For Bloodlines 2 we have flipped this on its head. You play Phyre, an Elder vampire (~400 years old) in a city where Camarilla has been dominant for decades, and any hint of Anarch sympathy is squashed.

Phyre's number 1 loyalty is to herself, but she is wise enough to respect the power of the Camarilla and, more importantly, the Masquerade. Within the story Phyre earns a seat at the top-table of the Camarilla as the court's Sheriff, giving her the court's protection but also a powerful authority within Seattle's vampire society.

This is an RPG, of course, so you can roleplay Sheriff in multiple ways, maybe you are a loyal Sheriff of the Camarilla, or an Anarch sympathiser working from within to undermine the court, or maybe you're a self-centred Elder vampire playing the different factions off each other to your advantage.
