I wouldn't recommend playing Malkavian first. You won't really get it if you did. It's best to play one of the other clans first and then when you go back and play as a Malkavian you can see all the wild stuff they knew.

At least that's the advice my friends told me. I haven't beat the game yet. I'm just saving it all for when the 2nd game comes out, even though it'll follow a different version(5th Edition?) for the Vampires.

I can only recommend it, to be honest. I rarely had that much fun with a game, and if you decide to play Malkavian, you not only have a lot of fun options, but also get some insight on some stuff that not other clan gets, especially on a specific character...

If you haven't already and are a fan of Vampire the Masquerade, you should try the game "Rebirth" on here. It's pretty good if you wanted that type of thing. I need to get back into it myself.

Really ? I played Malkavian first and didn't had much issues understanding stuff. And I wasn't all that familiar with the whole World of Darkness thing back then...

You mean this one ? Becuase there's a lot of threads with "Rebirth" in their title here...

That's just what my friends told me about it. Also, yeah that's the one.

I hope there is an option to turn Jake into a pile of meat next because he wasn't convincing and I despise him even more now.

The dev said next update will bring Jake's part of the story to it's end, so likely we'll be able to smear him across the walls.

Can't help but feel bothered by how many resources will be wasted on his 'friendship' path if there is one.

 

[DrakoGhoul]

I'm more curious about Ella's monster next update. They have to be strong, at least Evolution lvl 3 equivalent in power. The MC might have to push himself harder than ever.

 

[Meh21]

Well, it is based on a TTRPG as far as I know, so going to it for amazing action gameplay is the wrong way to look at it anyway...

I mean, Redemption had a decent combat system but it was slower and sorta turn based. Bloodlines tried going on a sorta heck and slash path that was basically mashing the same buttons all the time. It ain't a bad game, but when you look at the combat it's more about tolerating than enjoying.

It's also a pretty old game, keep in mind. Translating a TTRPG to action-RPG wasn't has much a known science back then.

Neither now, I think "translating" a ttrpg into a videogame is a near impossible task, you can only adapt so far.

I myself am a fan of turn based combat for rpgs.
Maybe if they had more time and more budget it would have gone better? I don't know, I just wish that game ended up having a better combat system to complement the great dialogue tree, narrative, atmosphere and of course coming from Vampire the Masquerade which is an universe I am very much into.

The main problem with starting with a Malk playthrough is that it spoils some story stuff early on. Important story stuff.
BTW, just saying that Anarch-friendly Tremere is BEST route.

Also, this whole Jake storyline is making me very worried about other powered characters... it seems you need some good mental strength to hold it together. And Jake was just a mess from day one. Even ignoring Ella's machinations, his post-power-up interactions with the bully (Jared?) make it clear he really shouldn't have gotten any powers... dude was a ticking timebomb, and he had so many chances to ask for help from the MC. But he didn't because he kept thinking about dumb imaginary bullshit.

I think the point of his character is that he was the possibly most unprepared person to receive his powers in the situation he was in. He's the closest to a typical insecure teenager with the most mundane problems and a narrow world view. Regardless if he had gotten those powers or not, he would eventually have to grow and greatly change the way he thinks and acts.
Looking closely, he seems equally as confused and as helpless before, like a retarded teenager who doesn't know wtf is going on half of the time, he simply has the power to act on his most negative emotions and Ella nurtured some of his worse traits.

 

[Oper4tor]

The whole side-plot of Jake's character is great, from the moment i saw him being bullied i knew he was gonna get turned.
And from there was either death by becoming a unstable monster or a rival, and a rival he became.
NGL, first i felt sorry for him, later i understood he needs to die ASAP.

Howdy. I was just getting a bit burnt out writing the new chapter and got the urge to do do a bit of drawing to relax and let the ideas come to me, as I'll generally do early on in an updates development cycle.
This isn't a preview or anything, the image probably wont show up in the game, but I just thought I'd show you guys Ella drawn in one of the other art styles I used to practice. Didn't use this particular style for the game since it generally takes longer to do and I wasn't as good with it back then, but these days with all the constant drawing practice the game updates force on me, I've gotten pretty damn fast at drawing, like probably 10X faster, if not more, so I thought I'd give it a try.
So yeah, pretty happy with how it turned out and how long it took me, so I decided to show you guys. Let me know what you think. Oh and I'm also calling the weekly news updates Devlogs from now on because it's easier. See ya

It looks like I was wrong about the Minyak thing. Well, not wrong but I didn't know you could make them submit with your corruption. You use "Mother" and force them to turn back normal during the fight. You'll need 8 corruption to do this and it gives you a lot of public opinion.

All that said, this playstyle wouldn't work for a lot of people that don't like corruption or for those who like Demi. You'll probably never get this because of how much you'll have to skip. I'll post my full stats after finishing this playthrough up.

So far my stats are

Power - 41
Skill - 6
Corruption - 9

Positive or negative ? Because...

... that part makes it seem like it's negative, since the only reason I could see Demi not being there is if you're such a monstrous fuck they don't want to be your fan.

 

[DrakoGhoul]

No, I mean't that if you like Demi content, you probably won't like this playstyle because you need to focus on other routes. At least from how I played this, I skipped on a lot of Demi's stuff and did every other route to maximize my points. As for the corruption, well you have to do a lot of things most people won't play into unless they lean more towards evil/anti hero.

Also it looks like my theory is some what true about being linked to your monster parent. Only thing is, I learned that the link is hidden and tied to the MC's spirit. I'm curious how the Jake fight is going to go now that I'm more powerful than my Main playthrough was at the same point.

I now have these stats before the Jake Fight -

Power - 44
Skill - 6
Corruption - 10

Really ? I've seen a few people now complain about not being able to do all the content in one run, and I have to admit, I don't understand how... I've had far more than enough opportunities to do everyone's routes and still had some time to waste... Unless some routes variations have more content than the others, maybe ?

Also for the "lot of things most people won't play", I get that. Prime example being the infamous NTR route...

wait what! Corruption is actually a good thing?
