That was a nice reading, but let me comment on some of the things you claim are critique. Not all are really valid.
Is the universe exactly same as VtM? Close imitation or can you get spoiled from playing the computer game? I prefer if developer adds little flavor over time to make it more distinct.
If anything, this is a matter of taste. I don't care whether it is original or not here, provided it is logically consistent. If devs are going to make new rules, they better stick to them. We'll see.
Why does Sharon's RP points listed as "SharonSavLaurie" ? Does that mean Sharon will save Laurie depending on RP in future? If so, it is very telling to a fault.
This is NOT a valid critique. Why are you reading into the code? Is like going to the last page of a book and then claiming the ending was spoiled. Having said that, I think that is just the remnant of the name for the variable when you are supposed to go and search for Laurie. I doubt they have look ahead that much in the plot.
Music sometimes fell out of place and even repetitive at times. I'm guessing they are the ost from the game. Also other sound effects also get muted even if you only lower music volume . I couldn't hear the scream in the forest for example.
Totally agree with you. Music has too little variation and it is not well executed. It is very hard to find games in which the music is done right. I think Avalon is one of the few.
Will there be a corruption/servant route for Laurie? The alternative choices for her always felt like we are ordering her around and starting to a master/servant relationship with her. Not that I want it personally, it is just her having only Lover +/- points in walkthrough did kind of suprised me.
Well, they feel like that because they are that. Laurie is your thrall, so turning her into a slave is almost already done. The question is whether you treat her as a girl or you treat her as a slave.
Carmen literally baited Sharon and put her bloody hand near her face. It was like obvious test to see if they would react to the blood and Sharon still let MC go to her house alone without a suspicion. Even if it was done for story's sake, MC being in danger and Sharon's guilt over it, eventually making them closer. Still it felt a weak point of the plot, I was suprised a old vampire like her who suppose to know a lot of shit with her life experience, did not suspect hunters at all.
Sharon is not that old in vampire terms, around 80 years old? You could argue she could have figure it out, but at the end of the day remember: people make mistakes. It is not like she is infallible. No need to understand it as "this was weak plot"
MC got his first kill, which was a life and death situation and even so, MC took it like a pro. I figured adrenaline and such at first but he never talked about it even after it. I expected a sequence where he would look disturbed and unstable to everything that was happening and Sharon would comfort him. I know MC is like super royal vampire or something power-wise but still he was just a normal human days ago, I expected more reaction from him to everything that is happening. Especially him killing someone.
This is a valid point. MC does not look like a regular psychopath and he did take the killing without trouble. Maybe we will learn more in the future. Still, I guess that once you are turned into a vampire, the concept of killing becomes something you know you will have to do. And it is not like he murdered in cold blood, he was defending himself. But a potential valid point.
