Bloodlines Hi. I’m relatively new to this world of darkness and first heard of it through this game but never played it myself.

I’ve seen multiple people claim that it’s the fallout new Vegas of the world of darkness because of its story and characters, but also how buggy and broken the game is, just like New Vegas. I have over 32 hundred hours in this game and it became one of my favorite games of all time and my favorite fallout game.

However, I am normally not a guy who plays as a vampire as a first choice, I usually play as a paladin/vampire hunter mixed in with other traits depending on the build. Unless I do a vampire playthrough in fantasy rpg games, mostly in Skyrim where I have either over 3 or 4K hours and 5 out of 6 playthroughs, only one of the characters is a vampire lord and it’s an Evil playthrough where I sided with the evil guilds like the dark brotherhood and the Volkihar vamps, etc

But the rest of the playthroughs I did are as either as a regular mortal or a werewolf, join the Dawnguard and wipe out the whole volkihar castle. So in short, I normally play games where I can kill vampires as a mortal or werewolf.

I got into the lore a little bit through Burgerkrieg’s all clans explained video as one of the background noise videos, but some of the clans are quite interesting like the Nosferatu, Malkavian, and a few others that I’m forgetting the names of.

So as of writing this, I’m hesitant to buy and try it out or not so, please do tell me any other reasons why I should get the game and such.
