Every news I read about this game is another recipe for disaster. Drawing inspiration from a game released 2 months ago, and still scheduled to be released in 2024?
Also, Larian has 20 years of experience about building that beauty. Every step they took in the past brought them here. Chinese Room, on the other hand, is founded, run and abandoned by some fuckwits.
Only thing VTMB2 should take inspire from is VTMB Unofficial Patch.
So, I can ignore most NPCs and have them want to fuck me as soon as I so much as hint at looking their way?
At least it’ll make sense here, what with us being vampires and all.
On a more serious note, I really hope they don’t fuck this game up, but it’s been in development hell since before we got the janky trailer. I’m keeping my fingers crossed, because VTM was really cool despite its flaws and I really want to see a proper vampire game.
Yeah, I basically decided to party-up with Shadowheart, Lae’zel and Karlach on this playthrough. I’m ignoring most NPCs, and as soon as I finished the goblin fort and went to camp every single NPC wants to fuck me even though I’ve barely talked to anyone, and it’s like every “no” option is just insulting them. Like, my character’s not gay, but I’d like to just say “no thanks dude” instead of “Ewww, wtf is wrong with you? I’d rather fuck a goblin” when another guy hits on them.
I started playing recently, though. I kind of waited for those romance milestone updates first because it was quickly reported as a bug. They’re still really low (unless my save is bugged somehow).
It’s nice to see BG3 setting a new standard for big RPG titles, but my expectations for this game are still on the floor. At this point, I’ll just be happy if it releases.
I am not optimistic about this game but I hope the devs prove me wrong. Potentially would have been more reassured if they described it as being a smaller, more tightly focused experience.

Didn’t this get canceled twice?
Got handed off to a new studio
Wasn’t this game supposed to release 57 years ago?
I believe you’re too hard on them. It’s been only 52 years according to my notes.
Yes that is a very long time, it sure sucks to age, fellow

God it really is the worst sometimes, mostly because there’s not a classy way to let them down.
It’s all “Serious reply, Flirty Reply, Fuck Off Loser You’re Ugly.”
Now maybe if the game let you actually ho around it’d be different but there’s a ton of weird/buggy chain breaking interactions.

The romance milestones were bugged in early releases of bg3, it’s more inclined with other games now
