QUOTE(SubRosa @ May 29 2019, 04:02 PM) That is another obvious one. I am sure all the clans in Bloodlines 1 will be in the sequel. It wouldn't be VtM without them. Hopefully along with the Thin-Bloods, they will have some of the other interesting ones, like the Assamites, or Sets, or Tzimscie or Ravnos too.
If they really want to be clever, they can just do the standard clans in the original game, and then release new clans as dlc later. They could milk that for a dozen mini-dlcs right there. That's what the Total War games do now with releasing new playable factions.
At launch, only Brujah, Toreador, Ventrue, Tremere, and Malkavian will be playable. They are planning on releasing other clans as free updates later on.

A sequel is supposed to have more content than the original, not less.

Lol, well at this point, Khajiit is just happy we are getting a sequel. If the gameplay is as good or better than the original then this one couldn’t care less if he has to wait a bit for the rest of the Clans to be released. And who knows? We may even end up with more clans than the original.

QUOTE(SubRosa @ Jun 1 2019, 07:21 PM) They are twins. I used a mod that makes NPCs playable for certain clans, and translated a couple of them to work for Ventrue as well.
Ah, Khajiit figured this was the case!

QUOTE(SubRosa @ Jun 3 2019, 05:45 PM) I was reading today that blood is haram (forbidden) for Muslims to consume. So that would really suck for Islamic vampires...
Lol pun intended? Khajiit actually thinks that would be a good show or movie. How would a super devout person deal with changing into a monster and their slow loss of faith. Would be interesting, this one thinks.

Heh. Makes me think of Blade Trinity where the human FBI agents ask Blade about Hindu and Jewish vampires. “You can stake 'em, right? Then there's sunlight -- what about crosses, Wilson? Do those work?” “I don't know, Ray. What if a vampire's Jewish?” “That's a good point. And does garlic work on a Hindu vampire? Or do you need saffron or something?”

I now recall that in the Hunters sourcebook there was a Puritan hunter what was also a ghoul. He survived from drinking from the vampires he killed. He was hundreds of years old, and a very old school Calvinist type. Here he is Caiaphas Smith. He's not an actual vampire, but close. OTOH, I am enjoying playing a Ventrue a lot. Fortitude gives you staying power in combat, and Ventrue Dominate really helps with dialogue. Presence seems a bit iffy. It does help, but it also warns people you are trying to sneak up on, preventing sneak attacks. If I could have a vampire with Fortitude, Dominate, and Obfuscate that would be awesome. She could fight, talk, and sneak.
