Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 is an action RPG now being developed by The Chinese Room, a Sumo Digital Studio. Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines ...
Neither of those had any NPCs, did they? I’m not familiar with Dear Esther but from looking it up it says you just explore environments, and I remember Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture having like, vague humanoid models but I don’t recall them being animated, could be wrong.
I have nothing but Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs to judge them on and based on that, they are very good at writing mysteries and cryptic stuff but they seem to be lighter on the gameplay side. From that, the writing will be good but hopefully it will have any gameplay.
Depends on how long the torpor lasted. If it was for a couple of centuries, a lot of has changed in 200 years. The player is going to have to find out the new political players, guns, vehicles, new clans, etc.
If the player was in torpor for a couple of decades, yeah the world exploration will be dull.
No no see you just woke up from Torpor, so yeah you’re an elder, but also you’re super weak, and nobody knows who you are so you won’t get any respect until you’ve done some basic removed errands. But EVENTUALLY, you’ll be powerful and respected.
Yeah this “Elder fresh from torpor” angle just completely killed my excitement, shit sounds so… bland now. So typical.
I played the shit out of Blacklight: Retribution back in the day, and saw the whole transition from zombie studios to buildblock to hardsuit labs. The devs were really active on various forums, and all seemed like great people.
I’ve been waiting so long for them to release something new, but this sort of game was a complete departure from anything they worked on (as the main dev) in the past. I’m not shocked that it didn’t worked out.
To be fair, an indie like Coffee Stain went from an absolute dumbass meme game like Goat Simulator to something crazy complex like Satisfactory.
You can’t really judge what a young studio is capable of.
As for you not being a thinblood in this game, you’re named as being a thorped elder waking up, so there could be RPG mechanics of you growing as you get stronger from waking up.
And they don’t say which elder you are, so you could wake up as any type of elder, even a Nosferatu.

Welp, there goes the exploration of the world factor.

It’s at least a good explanation for why the PC will just obliterate everything else he sees like in the first one.

This is Sunctuary erasure.
I hope these new mechanics include a 3rd person option
