Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines technical issues remain a problem. So, if you become a Nosferatu, you need to stay hidden from humans in the world due to your mutations, but receive buffs to your intelligence skills. These usually act in balance, so while you gain some advantages some hindrances are also forced upon you. From the deformed Nosferatu to the aristocratic Venture – who you side with dictates many of your abilities. There are also seven clans to align your new vampire with. These determine your starting Attributes, Abilities, and Discipline stats that dictate your characters powers. From the very beginning you can choose to build your own character or have one created for you by answering a range of appropriate questions.
This sharpness of writing permeates the whole experience of Bloodlines. The thing is, the story and characters are spot on and while technically elements have aged the writing and plot have not. It's easy to see why too: the gameplay is stiff, and despite promising the “immediacy and brutal combat of a first-person action game” it struggles to live up to these aspirations. Set in the modern world, there are lots of innocent mortals dotted around in the world, forcing you to frequently use stealth in balance with Bloodlines more action focused combat.Īs a first or third person RPG, Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines divided critics and fans at the time of its release.
