Forum Overview :: Vampire: The Masquerade:: Bloodlines :: Re: I thought it was alright

[quote name="Mr. Kool"][quote name="FABIO"]I found it to be Diablo with a (then) pretty 3d engine (quake 2 I think), a plot, and less polish. The major downside I thought was there was theoretically there were a ton of cool abilities you could work with and lots of cool ways to use them, but you never really got a chance to use them all with the frentic real time combat. Combat was more strategic than Bloodlines though, but Bloodlines is more fun due to more & better story and dialog. Eh, I'd say if you're into Diablo then it's worth $10. It does Diablo gameplay much MUCH better than Arcanum (and looks about twenty times better).[/quote] I agree with Fabio. If you're looking for a game to play until something good comes out and aren't expecting anything great, it's worth ten bucks and your time. Expect a lot of narrow, corridor-style dungeon crawls with a few trips to town to pawn of your loot early on. When the game throws you in the 20th century, sticking with melee weapons is still your best bet. Mr. Kool[/quote]
