Just finished Bloodlines 2, Video to come out soon. To give some cliff notes ahead of this for those thinking of buying the game:
-It's not an immersive sim anymore and has no real reason to be called Bloodlines 2 besides marketing.
-The story is actually okay, but does hinge on the game bending some of the established lore, honestly flip a coin on if they do something lore accurate in any given scene. I enjoyed it, but parts did bug me (Vampires not turning to ash etc.)
-There were some brilliant set pieces in here, a few moments that had me wowed, and a few moments where I wished I had fast travel.
-Gameplay is either multi choice dialogue, Arkham City detective segments or mostly hack and slash combat.
-Disciplines are weird, your favourite clan will not feel like your favourite clan and besides a passive, you will be able to access all other disciplines.
-Can't play a noz or a malk (You do have a malk friend though who partners up with you)
-I finished it in 13 hours according to steam.
-I encountered a few stutters performance wise but no crashes.
- There's a distinct absence of side quests, technically they're in there but they're just fetch quests or combat in the overworld.
