I'm unsure if the old nature of the original will appeal to me or not. At least in the sense of paying $20 for it.
Ahhhh, nice. I subscribe to Humble Monthly so I get a cool 50 cents off and a Steam key.
Once, it was the only way to get the lockpick. Skipping it meant never getting it. The unofficial patch may have fixed that.
I've never played this before, but now the sequel is coming so I guess I have to now.
How long is it?
Weird question, but should I name my character something normal or something vampire-ish? Like, I don't want to be called Steve and every other Vampire is named Lucius Bloodrain. Conversely, I don't want to be called Xander Darkbringer talking to vampires named Liam and Emma.
Lol
Right on. Consider giving it a shot if you see it on a low price you like. As old and busted as the game is in many ways, I feel it's just as modern and even ahead of its time in others. I'd call it a gaming's ultimate patchwork. In a sense it's a masterpiece. In another it's an extremely mixed bag. Overall I've never played anything else quite like it in terms of consistent atmosphere, although its older cousin Deus Ex is probably the closest.I'm unsure if the old nature of the original will appeal to me or not.

There's no wrong choice. You can also always take the quiz.I've played the game before so I was really tempted to go with Malkavian, but it's also been so long since I originally played it that I don't remember much so now I'm stuck figuring out what clan to go with.
What the hell, LaCroix for some reason gave me the apartment despite me pledging allegiance to the Anarchs, being a bit of an asshole to him in the conversation leading to the boat quest and being seen in the boat. I was already dredging thinking how I would need to keep going back to Santa Monica to check for emails, it's actually the first time ever that I got an Haven outside of the first one. I'm playing on Unofficial Patch Plus, so that might explain why he gave the apartment, not sure.
Sure seems like a bug that not even the unofficial mod fixes lolI always got it.
And then in one playthrough I kissed his ass he didn't give it to me.

That's pretty much exactly where I finished up tonight too. I wish I played this game earlier, I'm really feeling it.Playing as a Ventrue for the first time. I played as a Malkavian on my first go, but never finished.
It's kind of nice just going around and seducing people and then draining blood, but it does suck that I cant feed on everyone or rats.
I just finished getting the bomb back for Mercutio, and now I'm going to be looking around and doing some stuff before I get too far into the main quest.
Just download it from ModDB, no reason to be afraid, it's literally the same EXE that GOG is patched with. I just reinstalled it without issue.everytime this is posted I'm so tempted but since I own the steam version and am deathly afraid of random internet exe's I always give up. I'd love for the steam version to get the unofficial patch applied but that's clearly a pipedream.
I played as a Malkavian on my first playthrough and it was fantastic.
Looks amazing for a game that's almost 15 years old. Mod looks somewhat oversaturated, but I think it fits the game.I'm planning to go in myself rather vanilla. I debated adding the "Clans" mods that add some clan specific quests and new branches to the game I hear are very good (and many recommend it), but as I've never played the game all the way through I'd rather take the canon story for this playthrough especially keeping in mind the sequel is coming (I do hear the characters are faithful to the lore of Vampire: The Masquerade, but I want to see what the game establishes by itself).
I have decided to use the Dev0lved ENB mod though: https://www.nexusmods.com/vampirebloodlines/mods/10/
Mainly just to make the game a bit prettier:

FWIW.
Ah gotcha :)Dusk Golem already pointed this thread to me, but thanks for the heads-up nonetheless. :)
