I wasn't aware Bloodlines finally got released.
Also I replayed The MAsquerade as an adult and it does not hold up remotely, unless you are currently 13. If you are currently 13, maybe give it a try but I dunno is the era translates to new kids, prolly not.
I do not care if this franchise gets more games.
Edit: WAit no, the one from 2004 was Bloodlines, wasn't there a new game they were working on like 10 years ago now? Is THIS that game they were working on 10 years ago? The already did pre-orders and everything forever ago.
NEvermind, I'm old and confused and no longer with "it", which is weird cause they don't really keep changing what "it" is anymore, they just keep trying to feed me worse versions of things I liked when I was 13. I'm nearly 3x that age now. I have no interest in just about any of it.
The game has been stuck in development hell for more than a decade, yes. I agree that Masquerade does not hold up, yet it still consistently makes best RPG/game lists. I think it's just nostalgia that keeps it alive in the gaming culture. It was janky even when it came out and the story is like a YA novel; modern modding has made it more playable but it's not worth revisiting imo... unless you're a moody teen who doesn't want to consume any of the more modern moody teen slop.
