Bloodlines must be really one of the most favorite games of mine. I think Paul would like it a lot.

I was a lone wolf but I always heeded Jack’s advice. After all, he was the one who showed you the ropes briefly after your embrace. I played along with Lacroix just to f*ck him over in the end lol

Him and Rodriguez Nines. I never got to do the missions for him as i kept laughing in his face in the dialogue choices until he got pissed off at me and wouldn’t talk anymore. Guess i’m not cut out to be to be a (self righteous and willfully contrarian) Anarch.

Anything for my favorite games!! Yep, Jack is awesome and Lacroix is a wuss hahaha I chose to be a lone wolf in the end though.

@Mark K

True that! I wish they would make a reboot (MMO doesn’t count, AAA title please?)

To everyone: I’m curious about what your clans and choices were! It’s rare for me to find someone to discuss with about this game.

But I have to say, this game is up there for me… I do like the detail, the characters, the setting.. It always reminded me of the original Deus Ex, kinda of modern-gothic take instead of cyberpunk, but it felt like a spiritual twin..

You mentioned VTMB in one of your previous articles as well and I immediately reinstalled it for another glorious replay.
If I had to pick favourite characters from the game they’d probably be Jack, because he’s ridiculously badass, and I just can’t help but hear his voice when I watch Adventure Time.

1. Jack and and everybody’s “rock star awe” of him
2. The Vorderman twin(s)
3. the reaction from Bertram when i told him i figured out his plan.
(2nd play through)
4. towards the end of the game,
being a spy and having it backfire

“getting them to listen to the truce should be easy, … since you’ve been working for them all this time”

really wasn’t expecting that.

as far as i know there is a mmo in production from white wolf
similar universe as bloodlines.
it will be a while before its done.
worth a look though

Ah, Malkavians! The Voerman twin(s) will always be my favorites from that clan. While it’s true that the world and lore is highly credited to its pen and paper origins, Troika developed a worthy adaptation and some other studio might have gotten it wrong.

I heard they were reviving VTMB in print, but like you, I’m not a fan of pen and paper RPGs. So yeah, I’m definitely down to getting a kickstarter done for this.

@trashcanman

Yes, it’s for the PC only. However, you really don’t need a powerful PC to play this. I used to play this in a crappy PC and it still worked haha. I suggest you give it a try! Steam and Gamefly often has VTMB on discounts for as low as $2.49 :)

Hmm I haven’t heard of that! I’ll check it out. Thanks

This is essentially the game I always wanted to make being a vampire fanatic. But I’ve never had a viable gaming PC so I’ve never gotten to play it. Also, do you remember “Kindred: The Embraced”, the show based off of the VTM franchise? Pretty damn good, even if it did take a lot of liberties with the property.
