Comment on Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines, why is it so hyped?

I agree about the clans, you had so many options out the gate. Like 4-5 as I recall. I always heard, do not start with Machiavellian or however you say it, but I really did want to earn that playthrough. Got a couple hours into the game and glitched, I can’t quite recall where.
I think the game had the same charm as the first Deus Ex. Butt-ugly graphics but amazing story and great gameplay. A real treat for those who could look past its dated graphics. I never thought the graphics of either one was bad.
I don’t recommend it now because AFAIK it requires Windows and I no longer run that. If it did run on my platform (Mac), I doubt it would run on the new ones. But I remember it being good for what kind of game it was.

From what I found, it’s possible to play it on Linux through Wine, so not totally windows exclusive. How well it works depends probably on how willing you are to tinker, as always in such cases.

I can confirm, I played the GoG version on Linux some years ago.
