So I just opened up Steam and I saw that VampireTM: Bloodlines is on sale. I remember the first time I played that game. Totally wicked experience. Because it seemed something genuinely new. When I say new, I'm not talking about the gameplay but of course thinking about it; I had a lot of fun while playing Bloodlines. Each race offered interesting abilities. Each of the abilities were amazing in their own aspect. From slowing down time to exploding people into chunks of flesh. It all seemed amazing. I still remember my first playthrough as a blood magic race, I was searching a 'doctors' basement and in the process I was attacked by the crazy doctor, who I presume dismembered people for a living. Anyways I used one of my blood magic abilities and he exploded into tiny bits. It was amazing because it seemed like it was exactly what he deserved.
The vampire genre for games seemed so untapped. Playing as a vampire, at least in VTMB, is extremely fun. Having extreme abilities and even more extreme bosses. That's really what I want in a game. Sadly, it seems most game developers these days aim to create games that are 'realistic'. In my opinion games shouldn't be unless of course they're Heavy Rain.
