I think the first is a game that is very much of it's time and is still my most played game. I don't think you can capture that something it had now though as the industry seems starved of the creativity Troika had. Hope to be proven wrong though.
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

I dunno how you'd truly do it justice - you'd need mechanics that had both the relative simplicity of something like The Division while also capable of something like Neverwinter Nights and a world that worked on multiple layers and as open as the world in The Division but much more fleshed out with mission, etc. gameplay more like Deus Ex.

+1Sweet. Cyberpunk 2077 and now VTMB2 to look forward to. I like
Now I want an announcement that they are working on a new Deus Ex. Oh and Resident Evil 3 Remake

I'd be very, very surprised if this doesn't happen.

True. Fingers crossed then!
Saw this on steam and my heart skipped a beat. Then I saw the trailer etc, and it looks like first person only?? Why??? I know I seem to be a dying breed, but I just don't like First Person games. Cyberpunk is off my list due to this. The first bloodlines was 1st and 3rd, why not stick with that? I like to see the character I'm playing

I've read that performing some actions and attacks will take you to third person so maybe it'll be an option.

WHAT - pre-order a YEAR in advance - no way.
Loved the original, one of my all time favourite games. But this pre-order thing is just daft.
Really hope it stays true to the original.
Still sad that the MMO World Of Darkness got cancelled back in 2014. Article

Absolutely playable - it has aged fine so long as you are the kind of person that values features and narrative over graphics. That being said it uses an early version of the HL2 engine so it's not that bad looking. All bugs are fixed - use the Steam version and install the mods...of which there are many.

If you guys have not played the very first game before Bloodlines, VTM Redemption the steam version is under a fiver. Spent hours on that game.

1st one was ace and still is , have a feek the 2nd will not be good , i hope i am wrong .
I've just started playing it, having not played it when it released. I am using the Unofficial Patch, and the game runs great. Obviously it doesn't look good when compared to the games we have now, e.g. flat, low res textures - but the game is a blast. Story is enganging, and the gameplay itself still holds up.

This and Cyberpunk, 2020 could be one of the best years for gaming!.
I don't know if the story will follow on to the sequel, but I highly recommend playing Bloodlines 1 first, just because it is a great game. It has definitely aged, but the atmosphere is still great. It still plays well with the unofficial patches. I recently started playing it and am having a blast
I just watched the E3 trailer. World, story, dialogue all look great. Gameplay looks janky af. At one point in the demo the PC is attempting to shoot someone in the head and it is comically bad. Another time they are having a fist fight and it makes Skyrim look like a fighting game! Got to be one of the worst gameplay trailers I've seen considering it is the first look!
I'll certainly get the game and I'm confident it will be good, but I hope they massively improve the gameplay. As it stands I'll get it, but it isn't in my top 10 most anticipated games.
