Let's Play: Vampire: Bloodlines - Page 3

I've tried this game a number of times, each time weighing the character creation options carefully and considering how the playing experience might be affected by previous experiences, and each time ending up with a female Malkavian. So I might as well throw my vote in with the landslide victory side.

Male Toreador.

I'm disappointed in you guys.

We already know how DFM plays a female malkavian.

We see it every single day.

Jagos · 08-02-2008, 06:57 PM

Any better ideas Krylo?

I'm going with a Female Leroy Jenki--- er... Brujah or the Female Malkalvian.

1st choice is Malkal though.

Goddammit, why is it people always ignore the badass warrior for the loony worthless guy?

Solid Snake · 08-02-2008, 09:03 PM

I'd rather be Female Tremere, to be honest. Or Brujah. Or any of the races other then Malkalvian.
I understand Malkalvian's going to win, which I personally view as unfortunate. As fun as the Malkalvians sound it seems to me to be more a great Let's Play option for a second playthrough, so that those of us who've never played the game before can get an idea of the major events of a "generic" playthrough as opposed to seeing a secondary offshoot first. I'd compare it to why I wouldn't want my first Fallout experience to be with a really ridiculously dumb character with low INT stats -- it changes the game experience to the point where you're really not even playing Fallout anymore and experiencing the traditional game as you should.

::shrug:: I'll still be interested in the topic regardless, though.

There is always Kratos, Lara Croft, Ryu Hayabusa, Kane, and ~~Tidus~~ Wakka.

How many times do you get to see someone that's so out there that they make no sense whatsoever? :p

This is exactly correct. A big appeal of the Malkavian playthrough isn't just that it's different, but that it's almost a giant "Behind the scenes" look at what was going on in the game world that you wouldn't appreciate if it was your first playthrough.

I mean, I'm not going to ban people from voting Malkavian or anything but I will regard all those posters with contempt. >:[

(And if you change your vote to something non-malk then I WILL do a second let's play as a Malkavian. Or have someone else do it if this one really sucks horribly)

Solid Snake · 08-02-2008, 09:24 PM

You could always just eliminate Malkavian as an option offhand as the LP creator, and only count non-Malk votes, but after having created the topic and after including Malks as an option, that might seem like a bit of a douche move. I'd support you wholeheartedly, though. =P

Gonna switch my vote to the, uh, last one. Ventrue. Right. A female, for sure.

Because causing an aneurysm with a sentence is but one of the many weapons a Ventrue has at their disposal.
