Visitant Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 So for those of you new to Bindy's world, for a long time I spent a lot of time in the world of darkness. From about 16-30ish I played in and later ran VtM LARPS. (Apparently larping is the one thing that even nerds will make fun of, but fuck you). I am a huge dork for the world of darkness. ..I hated their last iteration of the world and refused to play it. About 5ish years ago, I was covering a con in H-town, and I ended up getting wrecked with this random Swedish dude who was there for the Battlestar Galactica part of the con. He was also a hardcore VtM fan that was at the time, trying to work on the MMO version of VtM that never came to light. (CCP cancelled it). Fast forward to today. My Swedish friend ends up becoming one of head storytellers/writers for the new world of darkness and he's making the game *I* would want to play again. I was talking with him last night and he was, of course wrecked (because GDC parties are crazy man, the one time I went it was...a lot). He was so over the moon that this project is finally seeing the light of day. He only had a minor hand in it (lore) but the FIRST iteration of bloodlines 2 they'd hoped to launch alongside 5th ed (which is out) but technical problems held them back and that's why it got pushed back some. This project is being done with LOVE and care. Like...the kind that CD Projekt has with cyberpunk. I could not be more excited. Even with all its technical problems, I adore the first Bloodlines. For those of you curious about the world of darkness, there's a documentary on Amazon about it you can check out now. (my boy even makes an appearance in it). For those of you who want to know more about bloodlines, and maybe don't want to download +mod the game (because, you really need to to get it working right). I recommend this video. It's about 30 minutes, but it's totally worth your time. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visitant Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Most of that conf was a joke. Made up of trailers from games that have been coming to steam for a while. All that trailer showed me is that ill be able to play bloodlines 2 on my PC with a controller. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The NZA Posted June 23, 2022 Author Share Posted June 23, 2022 well this sucks...looks canceled, or at least with the current team attached to it. we'll see if it shows up with someone else down the road? meanwhile, here's what we say of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Visitant Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Bloodlines 2 has had a pretty troubled development. I try and follow most VtM projects pretty closely (also I do have a copy of bloodlines 2 sitting in my steam account waiting for an actual release) Yeah, you're right. Basically they were pretty far into development, enough to get pre orders going for release of the game and then the entire team got scrapped and development moved to another team. THAT team was like, yeah we can't work with what y'all gave us and we need to nearly start over. So it's going to be in development for...a while. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
