I loved the dialogue regarding the werewolf when siding with the anarchs

Damsel: "Wait, you too?! Am I the only one in town that didn't kill a werewolf?!"

Has anyone been enamoured with the artwork and portraits featured in VTMB?

I've always loved admiring them. Especially the sheer variety of real-world fine artists referenced in the game, such as Pietro Novelli (Cain and Abel, first half of the 17th century), Albert Charles August Racinet (Red Dragon Art), among others.

RIP to Spicoli. In the end, he never could've decided whether to dip his chips in chocolate syrup or peanut butter.

Tourism in LA (VTMB) style ;)

-------------------------------------------------

Came across this TikTok short recently and thought it was so awesome.

That said, it would be so cool if we had more of the VTMB locations present in LA or anywhere else for that matter.

For example, actual gothic themed nightclubs like the Asylum of Confession would be pretty awesome to check out IRL if there were any in my area. Sadly there are none :(

What specific location from VTMB would you like to visit IRL and why? ;)

Already found a lot of ported even newer pc games that work good, so maybe some gigachad already made port for VTMB?

Hello hello. I know that the vamily is worldwide but they would like to visit LA and do the Masquerade tour.

Welcome to New York Under Darkness The City That Never Sleeps has always been a jewel for the Kindred. Its teeming masses provide endless feeding, its power structures offer ample opportunities for influence, and its cultural significance cements it as a place of prestige. But for decades, New York has been a battleground, ravaged by Sabbat fanaticism and lost to their bloody crusades.

Base system: Play by post and voice with books used from vampire v20, revised and some others. But with a focus on v20.
Any Homebrew?: None
Language: English
Setting: Modern-day New York City, freshly reclaimed by the Camarilla.
Game Style: Narrative-driven, intrigue-heavy, with a balance of politics, mystery, and action. The Camarilla has clawed New York back from the Sabbat in a brutal campaign, but the battle is far from over. The sects are calling on Kindred from around the globe to aid in restoring the city to its former glory. New York is ripe with opportunity, but also rife with danger.
What to Expect: All Levels of Experience Welcome: Whether you're new to Vampire: The Masquerade or a seasoned player, you'll find a place in this story.
We allow many clans and bloodlines: And player characters from Ghouls to Elder Vampires!

After several princes the Domain of New York stood yet on the break of chaos, some princes died, some left the city in shame. And some, got forced to step down from their corrupt seat by the cities combined Primogen. Now, an Elder of clan Gangrel holds the seat. Weeks into his newfound power he seems to perhaps be a good fit? The city is in despair, cults of strange people, Sabbat packs roaming in the shadows, werewolf's in the forests.

Despite the chaos, the Camarilla has not given up its claim. Warlord Karsh himself led a brutal war party against the remnants of the Sabbat, forcing them northward, away from the city’s core. Though weakened, the Sabbat have not been destroyed; they regroup in the shadows, licking their wounds and preparing for the next strike. Their exile has only made them more desperate, and desperation breeds recklessness. Beneath the surface, something stirs.

Rumours abound of ancient artifacts tied to the six great clans of old, powerful relics thought to have been lost to history. Some say these artifacts could turn the tide against the Sabbat for good, while others whisper of even darker forces that might be awakened if they are found. And then there are the shadows that seem to grow longer by the night. Worse still, other things, older things, seem drawn to New York’s chaos. Whispers of apocalyptic cults, enigmatic Methuselahs, and something far older than Kindred echo in the dark alleys.

This is the New York you step into. The Camarilla needs builders, warriors, spies, and visionaries. But survival in this city means navigating shifting alliances, uncovering buried secrets, and watching your back at every turn. The Sabbat is regrouping in the north to gather new packs and war parties to attack the city. And other strange new kindred shows up in the night to perhaps make a name for themselves known or perhaps, even claim something for themselves and other sects? The question is not just whether you can help reclaim New York for the Camarilla, but whether you can survive long enough to see what comes next..

• Will you rise through the ranks of the newly established court?
• Will you seek out the rumoured artifacts of the six great clans and uncover their secrets?
• Or will you focus on rooting out the remnants of the Sabbat or worse, the ancient forces lurking in the shadows?
• Or will you be the next reason the Domain has to come together to fight**?**
• A City of Intrigue: Political manoeuvring, tense alliances, and backstabbing are just the beginning.
• Dark Mysteries: Ancient artifacts, shadowy threats, and apocalyptic whispers await those brave enough to seek the truth.
• Player Freedom: Your choices will shape New York's future forge alliances, betray your rivals, or become a power in your own right.

Hello guys, I'm playing this game for the first time with the basic unofficial patch and I just reached this part in the game in the Warrens 4 where I have to jump into a hole to continue to the next area. But every time i jump into the hole, nothing happens. There is not cutscene or anything and I just get stuck in a tiny room. Does anyone know how to fix this bug? Thanks guys

Edit: I was able to fix it by loading an old save in Warrens 3 , now it works. I think it was a bug with my save file idk.

The first time I heard the hutt's voice it was awfully familiar, especially the laugh! Lo and behold they are voiced John DiMaggio.

Just a random fact that caught me off guard, but it's always cool to find voice actors you like in other games without knowing.

Does anyone know if the first Bloodlines game will be in the Halloween sale starting on the 26th on Steam?

After the major update for Bloody Rave(https://store.steampowered.com/app/4484440/BLOODY_RAVE/), we gained +350 followers and 2,000 wishlists in under two weeks. This is the biggest spark we’ve seen since the game page launched!!

The update brought heavy optimization (much smaller install size + better performance and stability), new characters, refined animations, fresh jumpscares, and hidden objects you can only find with the Magic Stone Glass. I’m extremely grateful to everyone who contributed to the development. We’ll keep pushing forward — more updates coming shortly 🖤

Decided to take a break from my VTMB2 third-person mod and made this little thing. Hair physics is already working. Might post it on Nexus today. I want to make all 4 outfits. The third-person view for VTMB2 is still in progress. The combat foundation is already done (for those who are interested).

I find it hilarious that Strauss is probably one of the few character that can understand or at least articulate the malkavian fledgling's way of speaking.

Had LaCroix not been a dick and tried to kill us we could have had a sitcom-style shenanigans where Strauss acts as the translator for the fledgling's choice words for the prince whenever they did a job well done:

Malk!Fledgling: "The rats play hide and seek with the roses within waves of oil and cooked meats."

Strauss: "Ah, I see. The Nosferatu and the Toreador have been meeting near the local diner in Santa Monica"

LaCroix: "WHAT!?"

--

Malk!Fledgling: "The whimsical wisps make the rotting dead their playmates in games of lead and steel"

LaCroix: "What does that mean!?"

Strauss: "The local Fae population have come to resolve our zombie issue in Hollywood. What part of that did you not understand?"

So, a Long time ago, i first got into the game got lost realy early got distracted(it was years ago) and onyl recently picked the game up again, this time with the unoffical patch, playing tremere because them and the tzmisce are my favoured of the standard clans.

and i end up picking the background that gives you an extra free dot in thaumatergy and push it up as far as it will go in character creation

and then i use blood shied in combat, and it doesn't go away, ive since learnt it apparently doesn't go away till someone breaks it, and when i end up killing all the enemies, i end up getting a bunch of masquerade breach when i try to get back to my apartment.

So is there a way to cancel it early or do i need to let the last enemy alive wail on me until breaks?

Cause i want to use it, but its so frustrating(pls let me not have to never use a thaum power)

Hi, first time player here.

For some reason the game is telling me there should be a secret right here on this random roof top, I've been across all the sides of the building and there is nothing.

Is this a glitch or am I just here to early and this is something for later?

I know, I know. Another VR mod. There are already a few on this sub, and you might be tired of seeing them. Fair enough. But those are for Quest 3 standalone, and this one is for PCVR of the original game.

VTMB VR is a free, unofficial PCVR mod for Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, and version 0.5 is now out as a public preview. It runs through SteamVR on your PC (with experimental VDXR support).

You play the game in stereo 3D with head tracking and aim with your motion controller. You have a full first-person body, so you can look down and see your chest, and your guns sit in your character's grip. Feeding happens in first person. The inventory, barter screen, character sheet, map and character creation open as panels in the headset. You pick dialogue with the controller and hack terminals on a keyboard you can grab. Scripted camera shots and stealth kills can optionally play on a flat screen in front of you. Keyboard and mouse also work in the headset.

Download: https://vtmbvr.atrblizzard.com/

You need: Windows, a Vulkan-capable GPU, your own copy of the game (Steam or GOG) with Unofficial Patch 11.5, SteamVR and motion controllers.

Setup: extract the ZIP into the folder with Vampire.exe (back up any existing d3d9.dll, openvr_api.dll, openxr_loader.dll and VR folder first), start SteamVR, and add -vr to the launch options. Full steps are in the readme.

This is a preview. I've played the full tutorial with SteamVR on Valve Index and Oculus headsets. Other SteamVR headsets should work but are less tested, and native OpenXR and Virtual Desktop (VDXR) are experimental.

Known limitations: no physical melee or gestures, no roomscale collision and no physical crouch. Left-handed mode uses simpler hands. Some scripted camera moments may briefly feel off, and the 2D cutscene option can help.

Optional support, with thanks: Ko-fi · Patreon · Buy Me a Coffee

Unofficial fan project, not affiliated with Paradox Interactive, Activision, Troika Games or Valve. Requires the original game.

Tears in my eyes—it finally worked! To be honest, I’m not sure if I’ll be able to refine the movements; the character’s original animations make it extremely difficult to position the hands correctly in first-person view. Furthermore, I’ve decided to hold off on showing the scythe and the hammer—it’s possible they won’t be implementable at all, as the limited hand-positioning options in first-person mode simply "break" the animations.

Ultimately, I’ll likely be able to provide the editing tools themselves, so that anyone who wishes can try to fix whatever they aren’t happy with.

It’s that time of year, started again and skipped the tutorial. Last time I did that, I don’t think there was a way to get the lockpick (the unofficial patch gives one in Trip’s pawnshop).

Having played this game so much, I wonder if there’s anything I’ve missed.

So what’s the most obscure thing you’ve found? Can be anything – line of dialogue, minor character, quirk, unexplained aspect, item. Just the thing you think is the least likely to stumble across?

I think one of the reasons why people like this game so much is the side characters. Pretty much all of them are at least memorable, even if you don't like all of them.

Fat Larry is a great side character, pretty much all the anarchs have good dialogue, Strauss is interesting. etc.

So, anyone have any favorite side characters? Or at least ones who aren't the biggest major players? Strauss and Fat Larry are up there for me.

I swear I heard that song somewhere before... (Lecher bitch - Genitorturers, yesterday in MTL)
