I just feel like no matter what, it’s been so long that it will still not meet expectations.

This game looks awesome. People who’ve gotten their hands on it are saying great things.
But in absolutely no way should you pre-order it.

People said good shit about cyberpunk 2077 at release. Take games journalism with a grain of salt. Even the very largely honest ones generally only get the first "X minutes" to demo, which designers pack impressive moments into for the press, but then the rest of the game is half baked or a slog.
No preorders is always right.

People said good shit about cyberpunk 2077 at release.
And after a lot of work it’s one of my favorite games.
I’m not going to pre-order this one, but I’ll stay cautiously optimistic.

- I really need to play the first game.
- Those are some crunchy textures on the chest in the first scene of the trailer.

Buy it on GOG, I believe the Steam version of Bloodlines doesn’t even launch. GOG version comes bundled with the “basic” version of the Unofficial Patch which - as far as I know - is literally required to be able to finish the game. GOG also has a one-click installer for the Plus Patch with more restored content as of like a month or two ago, if you’re into that. I personally recommend playing non-Malkavian Basic Patch for a first experience and doing Malkavian with the Plus Patch for a second playthrough.
The game is absolutely worth it, it’s a cult classic for a reason. The combat sucks so be prepared for that and the second half of the game is extremely rushed as the developers were forced to shove it out the door but even having said that it’s a great experience for what it is.

The steam version didn’t launch a while ago because it was still 32bit without any compatibility for 64bit. Last time I played it worked fine though. YMMV

Never pre order.
Especially shit that has gone though development hell and multiple restructures

I was going to say – It’s almost offensive they even offered it. I know it has a bit of a fanbase but it’s been through the ringer trying to get out.

I really liked the first one when I was younger. More than it deserved probably. It hit a lot of the right stuff for me.
I don’t have any good expectations for this new one. It should be something I’m looking forward too but I’m not. Much less pre ordering it.
I hope it’s good. If it is I’ll play it.
