| A new role-playing legend is born—immersing players into the vampire underworld of modern-day Los Angeles. As a recently sired vampire, you must first follow the rule of the Prince, the de facto leader of the vampire clans. But as your story unfolds, you soon realize you have more choices than first appeared. Who will earn your allegiance? Who will you betray? Who will you eliminate? What path will you take in the World of Darkness? |

Vampire®: The Masquerade—Bloodlines™ delivers a new type of RPG experience—one that blends all the core elements of a traditional RPG with the graphical richness, immediacy and brutal combat of a first-person action game. The game plunges players into the dark and gritty vampire underworld of modern-day L.A. as a creature of the night. Players will develop their character’s powers, interact with other characters and embark on story-driven quests as they battle mortals and other vampires with an incredible array of vampire powers and weapons. Powered by Valve’s Source Technology—the same game technology used to power Half-Life®2, Vampire: The Masquerade—Bloodlines is being developed by renowned RPG developer Troika Games and is based on
White Wolf’s popular Vampire: The Masquerade pen-and-paper RPG series and its official clans.
* Immersive RPG adventure—Journey into the World of Darkness, the vampire underworld of modern day Los Angeles, from thumping raver clubs and the secret underground caverns of Downtown to seedy hotels and exclusive mansions on Hollywood’s infamous Sunset Strip. Embark on a variety of story-driven quests as you explore an open and nonlinear world filled with sidequests, multiple pathways and characters to interact with.
Experience a living world that reacts to your character based on clan, gender, dialogue, allegiance and the choices you make throughout the game. Replay the game making different choices—playing as a different clan, choosing different skills or following different paths—and you’ll find that your choices lead to different gameplay results and multiple possible game endings.
* Embrace the darkness as a vampire—Choose to play as a member of 1 of 7 different vampire clans, each with its own strengths and weaknesses. Use experience points to develop up to 12 differentvampire powers ranging from the supernatural such as
invisibility, mind control and possession, to physical powers like superhuman strength and speed, all fueled by feeding upon human prey. Develop your character by successfully completing quests, using politics and forming alliances, utilizing powers of persuasion and fierce combat to rise to power and become the most dangerous creature of the night.
* Next-gen first-person action gameplay—Vampire: The Masquerade—Bloodlines is the first RPG to use next generation first person shooter technology. Built using Valve’s Source Technology—the same technology used to power Half-Life®2 the game combines detailed graphics, lifelike facial animations and incredible special effects. With the game’s first person perspective, players will experience immediate RPG gameplay, enabling them to see character reactions in real-time through facial animations and body language. In addition, Vampire: The Masquerade—Bloodlines features intense, first person action gameplay and advanced enemy AI. Throughout their adventures, players will battle human, vampire and other supernatural enemies with a full range of vampire powers, melee combat and an explosive arsenal of weapons.
* Cutting edge RPG gaming—Vampire: The Masquerade—Bloodlines is the “unholy” alliance of next-gen FPS game engine technology, a top RPG developer and a renowned RPG franchise. Built using Valve Software’s leading-edge Source Technology—
the same game engine technology used to power Half-Life®2, the game is based on White Wolf’s renowned pen-and-paper RPG series and its official clans. Developed by Troika Games, creators of top RPG franchises such as Arcanum™ (2002 RPG of the year—PC Gamer) and the Fallout™ series, Vampire: The Masquerade—Bloodlines promises to take RPG gaming into the depths of darkness. |

| In my opinion, few single-player RPGs have come close to offering the revolutionary experience 'Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines' did in 2004. Although Troika Games closed in 2005 and has not offered further updates (aside from 1.2), there are excellent third-party patches available, as well as graphics support via updates to your computers video card client and drivers. I am running Windows Vis...[More] |
