Reply to comment by SableHalloway in Replaying some Vampire The Masquerade: Redemption! Miss the late 90s/early 2000s point-and-click RPG games... by dccs120

Every time people talk about Vampire The Masquerade is because of Bloodlines, but my heart is always with this one.

Redemption is much better but has a dated game engine. Bloodlines was on the source engine so it stayed relevant and scaled up to modern pcs.

Don't google any info on the game, just get the game, the latest patch, and go get one of the fan made hi-res texture packs. There are major spoilers that will ruin one of the best parts about the game if you read too much about it (including in the comments here). Try to play it completely blind as a medieval vampire slaying game.

It's a bit like KOTOR1, it has a lot of flaws (janky movement/combat) but there are some amazing moments that just wouldn't be the same if you knew about them before they happen. KOTOR2 and bloodlines are good games but they are just standard games, kotor1 & redemption have some "holy shit" story moments.

Where can I even buy it? I don’t think it’s on Steam.

Never mind I’m an idiot. It’s on steam. It’s cheap enough I’ll blind buy it. Thanks!

Awesome! I hope you like it. It's so tempting to talk about it but that would defeat the purpose of going in blind.
