Eventually. I don't really do day-one purchases anymore.

I think Tremere are the mages. I kinda wanted to play as one of them, but they have weaker physical abilities or something, and I like to have one uber-kickass weapon discipline for when my MP runs out.

More screens, since I'm in a good mood.

I realized in my first playthrough, I, an ugly bastard, never went into the bright lights where the pretty people lurk. So, this time, I actually did a bunch of strip-joint intrigue, although Velvet ended up not giving me much of anything in the end. Everyone's gotta be a tease...

Did the serial killer stuff and this time I knocked his ass over the firewall. He approached, then just stood there until he melted. This is the "brains" of the operation?

A look at some of the fictional magazines they got. "Worm" looks particularly riveting this month.

Finally did the webcam quest right this time, only to find out that girl killed herself over it. I'll use my meager payment to buy some shotgun shells in her honor. Also, Imalia is probably the prettiest-looking of all the disgusting Nosferatu goofballs. I know she used to be a model and stuff, but it's weird how she looks halfway normal (right at home in a Mardi Gras parade or on Halloween) while others look like that weird distorted face in the X-Files intro. I guess Gary resents his own plight a bit, since he likes to go around to various people with their nose in the air and humble them with his...ugh...gift.

RIP

I love this fat, useless guard (Chunk). I wish only the best for him. We'll exchange Christmas cards.

All I had to do to be a silent partner in the business was kill some Russian mobsters. A little more fun with guns than if I had just swung an axe around.

On another note, when I have to go to the warrens and do that annoying part where I swim towards a spinning-up turbine, Celerity should hopefully help with that. It was kinda hard to do as a Nosferatu, even with some shortcuts taken (like hopping the railing).

I remember seeing a show on the loch where they did a DNA test on what's floating in the water and couldn't identify a small percentage of it. Maybe they'll do better this time, haha.

You mean Trey's thesis? I think it was called "The Man Who Stepped into Yesterday". I mostly remember it because they did part of it at that Halloween show where they played all of Remain in Light.

I don't listen to Junta much anymore, but Fee is fun. CDT is a classic.

I kinda wish Phish would play this one more often.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PspK9PcibsU

Haven't checked their setlist site in a million years, but I doubt they did that much (or ever). It's killer.

I do enjoy a good Reba, although my fave Phish song is actually Back on the Train.

I haven't had any problems with special setups or anything. I'm playing on a Dell laptop I got a few years back. Maybe things are different for those using mods and stuff.

Damn, I've pretty much been breezing through the bosses so far. Kanker, Jezebel, and a few others were mincemeat with Celerity + an uzi. Struggled a little early on since I had a slow-ass revolver and had to conserve my ammo, but then randomly found a nightclub quest that provides me with free money every few days. Score!

Hmm, I think I might start a new character who specializes in firearms. I hear Toreador + Celerity + max Firearms is easy mode, so it might be nice to absolutely ravish some of these endgame bosses that way. I could probably (slowly) improve to get Ming Xiao, but...I don't really feel like doing it on a melee character.

They still shoot themselves in the head to activate skills, right?

Naw, I'm good.

Goddamn, this dude ripped Ming Xiao apart three times.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfY78XaVK_Q

I was hoping the flamethrower would be my silver bullet, but for some reason, Ming shrugs it all off in an unvampire way. Not cool! Denied! Might have to practice that one dude's hack-and-slash strategy of just using the first cleaving hit of that melee combo. Already figured out that I could dodge a bit as a melee guy, but it was a bit too annoying regardless. Should be able to use Potence to rip Ming a new gonopore, though, and with that legion of jackasses I fought my way through, I can use that artifact to heal, too.

PS: Archers suck

What I watched of it I found boring, and not just because they killed that girl's hot sister early on.

Curious how this'll affect the offseason, since he'll be entering his walk year.

What was really effective for me, granted not so much when there were multiple people with ranged weapons was just sucking people dry. Since I was gangrel and relied on my fists and the beast form they could change to, I was so close anyways latching onto some fool benefited me a lot.

Yeah, I've been dining on enemies once I kick their friends' asses. I'm in the golden temple right now, and kill the melee guys, just so I can drink my fill from the crossbow idiots.

Okay, after some testing, I finally managed to get through the boss by guzzling the free heal from that artifact, nine blood packs, and picking up that torch (you'd think vamps would be more scared of that...odd). After I finished up, I also picked up my flamethrower, dodged a werewolf on a mountaintop observatory, got betrayed by LaCroix, then decided to take the pain to Ming Xiao's temple. Haven't finished the latter yet, but now that I updated my melee stats...Bonesaw is ready, haha.

What pics do I have...hmm... Well, I always like eyepatch characters and this one hasn't shamed his kind. The part where he goes into his gung-ho speech, then gives a disclaimer because I am disgustingly hideous...nice.

I've only failed one quest the entire game and it was one that seemed primed to succeed: the spycam mission from one of the Nosferatu rejects down in the warrens. Nothing in the quest notes said I had failed or anything, so it was weird when I went back and she acted like I banjaxed something. But if that were true, why did the tabloids pick up on her latest llama-related snafu? Checkmate, vampthiests.

I did eventually get some humanity back as I danced with these weird NPC twins. Boy, was I red-faced when I finished a conversation after the Bach battle and immediately slaughtered the Swedish researcher I'd just had a 15-minute conversation with, haha. (Doing the boss fight over was not that pleasant, honestly.)

I don't know if this is a common strategy, but just standing at the bottom of these stairs, then going up when wolfy jumps down (then repeating ad nauseum) worked pretty well. I can't imagine three minutes of running around the place like a headless chicken. I waited for the timer to bottom out before I went to the tram station, but maybe I should've gotten a head start...

Damn, this sucks.

Yeah, there was a boss earlier (in the crackhouse, I think) that had infinite shotgun rounds and would motor around the room at 90 MPH to reposition himself. Kinda like that annoying sniper guy in the cave. Anyway, the crackhouse guy would take cover behind walls and stuff, and I'd just go to the other side and melee him through the sucker. Kinda surprised that worked. I do enjoy boss fights where I can just go invisible to regen health, haha.

Potence and that other skill affect melee weapons, too, so I've been using a katana as well. Maybe that can help slightly. I don't have any skillpoints right now, just a lot of ammo, a full healing artifact, and a fat wallet ($2000+). I can tell you, after this, I'm definitely picking up the flamethrower after this, for when "talks with our fists" mode doesn't pan out.

I keep seeing people say I should go get a flamethrower for the boss. I really don't want to do this entire deathtrap area over again, though, since I specialize in melee stuff and can't just run and gun the whole place.

EDIT: I also have that artifact that can restore me to full health, so maybe I can get by regardless.
