Vampire Bloodlines 2

Thought we had this topic, but I can’t find!

In-game trailer released today

I dunno, didn’t get me very excited, seems they rushed to put it together as it tries to tell a story but jumps from one thing to the other.

In case you wanna replay Bloodlines 1

Also, this trailer needs more attention! I knew this game was gonna come out, but now that I've watched the above video, I'm actually pretty hyped. It's got a lot of "immersive sim" genre vibes, which is my favourit genre of games. (FPS RPG with great story)

Also, no way on earth this will see a Q1 2020 release, which is actually good I guess, so many good games out these next couple of months.
I tried to dig around for more info on this game, and I had to dig deep into a Dev Diary, seems like they passed alpha in late last year.

those characters don't look good at all :X

The character art is sub-par, probably shouldn't have used regular NPC's you encounter in the game so prominently in a trailer. Some of those characters look straight out of a The Sims game, not sure if it's the render of this engine, lighting or whatever is going on.

But, it's the only gripe I have with it really. I'm actually very looking forward to this, for a while now. Immersive sims aren't exactly a dime a dozens these days, so part of me really hopes the whole package of this turns out to be excellent.

Well if they wanted to make their Unreal Engine 4 look like it was developed on a custom branch of the Source engine, just to continue from the original... they succeeded
I remember watching a video sometime ago where I had the same criticism as per above posts, was expecting stuff to be improved over time but it doesn't seem it will happen.

I haven't played the original, it looked clunky at the time of release, I don't want to get into it unless they plan a remaster/remake. But this looks very intriguing, the little gameplay that is visible in the video seems to take many hints from Dishonored... which is good.

Wasn't convinced of the project, but not expecting this

Theres a curse on immersive sims.

Theres a curse on commercially unviable brand names.

I don't understand fuck all of what's going on with this project. Seems like to promote it they've spun up a bunch of side projects, mini games... so I dunno if this trailer is for Bloodlines 2 or what

What the fuck is that
