Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 seeks to take inspiration from Baldur's Gate 3's narrative design, as well as its tabletop roots

Every news I read about this game is another recipe for disaster. Drawing inspiration from a game released 2 months ago, and still scheduled to be released in 2024?

Also, Larian has 20 years of experience about building that beauty. Every step they took in the past brought them here. Chinese Room, on the other hand, is founded, run and abandoned by some fuckwits.

Only thing VTMB2 should take inspire from is VTMB Unofficial Patch.

I am not optimistic about this game but I hope the devs prove me wrong. Potentially would have been more reassured if they described it as being a smaller, more tightly focused experience.

It's nice to see BG3 setting a new standard for big RPG titles, but my expectations for this game are still on the floor. At this point, I'll just be happy if it releases.

So, I can ignore most NPCs and have them want to fuck me as soon as I so much as hint at looking their way? At least it'll make sense here, what with us being vampires and all.

On a more serious note, I really hope they don't fuck this game up, but it's been in development hell since before we got the janky trailer. I'm keeping my fingers crossed, because VTM was really cool despite its flaws and I really want to see a proper vampire game.
