Comment on RTX remaster mod for Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines looks like witchcraft
Agent_Karyo@lemmy.world 19 hours agoSupposedly the first studio failed to make a fun game and they had to restart with The Chinese Room (Dear Esther, Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, Still Wakes the Deep).
I think they are on track with it, but we got to wait longer.

Don’t get your hopes up. The Chinese room version looks to be a straight linear action game with stripped down to non-existent RPG elements

The Chinese Room invented the modern Walking Simulator genre so I have hoperectile dysfunction with them.

This does not sound good. VTMB is not supposed to be linear, you want to explore a living world.
I haven’t been following the release trailers or previous, just saw some concept art from both the first studio that failed and The Chinese Room.
At least now I can manage my expectations.

Is it just me or is the first game fairly linear?

It’s no open world. But there are hubs, often there are multiple ways to finish a quest and there are quest lines that are limited by your skill and clans selection.
But the main story quest is RATHER linear.

Also like, the whole selling point initially for making a Bloodlines 2 was getting Brian Mitsoda back to write the script. But they’ve thrown it out to make their own story and it will be like BG3 in that sense - a sequel in name only but no actual connection to the original game(s).
