I concur but what a crying shame that is for the games industry...

So you can return to being human, if you kill your sire? Interesting. Seen that rule in a few of the 80s vampire movies.

Did anyone here play Final Nights or Clan Quest Mod and can say something about them?

Presumably only if you are a thin-blood, since in the first game (where you are a 13th generation vampire), your sire is dead from the start.

Yes. Sorry, should have been more specific. Was talking about thin bloods.

I can recall a few 80s vampire movies where that was a rule. The Lost Boys had that for example. Though that had an additional rule in there (if I remember right), where the sire had to be killed within a certain time frame, and they had to not have fed on anyone. Otherwise they'd be a full vampire from then on.

I'm not sure if the Bram Stoker books or Anne Rice's books had that. I know that Interview with the Vampire definitely did not have that. Buffy and Angel didn't either.

The Tremere are coming

For any vampire, blood is life. It’s history. But for one group in the Vampire: The Masquerade role-playing series, a mere drop of blood is so much more — it’s unlocks true power. These vampires are the Tremere Clan, and they practice blood magic — the power to manipulate blood.

And the Tremere are coming to Vampire: The Masquerade — Bloodlines II, publisher Paradox Interactive announced today. As a Thinblood, you’ll be able to join this sect of warlocks. Vampire: The Masquerade is part of White Wolf’s “World of Darkness” RPG setting, where werewolves and other monsters live among us. Bloodlines II is coming to PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One in 2020, and it’s a continuation of the excellent 2004 cult-classic from the defunct Troika Games.

Release date: Q1/2020

I see a major, major conflict with the release of Cyberpunk 2077 (April 2020) arising. If I were responsible for coordinating that release, I'd seriously consider holding back until the end of that year (and use that extra time for polishing).

Or simply speculate that CDPR has to postpone their release by a month or two at the last possible minute. Like they did for TW3.
6826741f062e0
By the looks of both games (and the celebrities involved in CP2077) I'd wager that CDPR spent a bit more money on their game than Paradox and are more likely to steal their thunder than vice versa.

Second that. Cyberpunk has a much higher ravud crowd awaiting it.

the guy putting this together liked Bioshock maybe a bit too much.

Vampires got time on their side.

RPS: "Brian Mitsoda has been fired as narrative lead on Bloodlines 2"

Since Mr Mitsoda seemed a VIP for the franchise, that looks like really bad news for the game. Creative director Ka'ai Cluney was also surprise-fired, apparently.

we have made the hard decision that Hardsuit Labs will no longer be leading the development of Bloodlines 2 - which also means that we will not be releasing in 2021 as previously planned. Since we cannot at this time communicate a new release date, we've also decided to stop accepting pre-orders for the time being.

Not surprised. Everything that has been showed of the game so far has been god awful.

This is a very kind response to such an ideological lust, even if you may not immediately recognize it.
