    Shoulda said "my laptop", rather.

    Although this thing can run TF2, so, I guess it isn't that much of a problem.

    ^^Try upping the graphics. The default is middling.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    I couldn't find any settings that looked like they had anything to do with textures, and all the graphical stuff is already maxed out anyway...
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    Ah.... well, I think it's aged pretty well, honestly.

    Certainly better than Deus Ex.

    Hmmm...okay, I can deduce from that statement that the textures are not supposed to be lower-res than the ones in Deus Ex.

    And I liked Deus Ex's graphics, as they made the most of what they had in terms of presentation. I feel the same about Bloodlines, though there are occasional spots where the textures seem like they're lower-res than they're supposed to be.
  • If your computer can run TF2 then it can run bloodlines. They run on the same engine.

    One of the weird things about vampire is the conflicting stories behind it.

    Some developers say the game is so buggy because of deadlines.

    Others say it kept getting delayed because they didn't want it to come out before Half-life 2.

    hmm, then i'll give it a go.

    anyone willing to gift it through Steam? I don't trust game torrents.

    ^^As I understand it, it was rushed out, then they realized that their license for the Source engine prevented them from releasing it before HL2, so they just sat on it for awhile instead of tweaking it.
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    Okay, so I can blame the publishers. Fantastic.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Yep.

    Well, it's a good game regardless of its issues.

    For the record Juan, I'm playing the torrent just fine
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    Once you finish the game proper, this is a pretty cool mod, though if you're skeeved out by hypnofetishism you might want to steer clear.

    I dunno, I just don't like doing the whol Daemon's thing, I guess.

    ...the Ocean View Hotel....gaaaaah.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Awesome, isn't it?
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    It's way creepier than you expect it to be. I almost never tell people about it ahead of time.

    Like I said earlier, that has to be among my favorite videogame areas.

    [Even though there's only one spot where you're in immediate danger.]
  • $80+ per session
    That was probably one of the scariest places I've been in a game.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Oh, without a doubt.

    Although...there's a place later that's also quite creepy, but in a different way.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Dammit, playing this is really making me want to play the tabletop game.

    I'm thinking a Malkavian who isn't capable of admitting that vampires exist.
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    (wonders if he should run a text game on the forum)

    I'd definitely play. I haven't played before, though; I hope you wouldn't mind.
  • You can change. You can.
    I'd try just to see why you love it so much.

    then again,

  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    I'd probably play hard-and-fast with the rules and do all the rolling myself.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Ah, I see.

    What edition? I got the 20th anniversary one after I started Bloodlines.
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    I'd probably be working off of that, since it streamlined the rules and it's a nice big single volume.
  • OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Cool.

    Anything I should keep in mind before I start making my character?

    Incidentally, I've thought about that concept I mentioned. This guy is going to have disturbing attitudes about normal humans.
  • MORONS! I'VE GOT MORONS ON MY PAYROLL!
    I don't mind dark, but it'll definitely be a Cam game, so he'll have to be able to reasonably pass for human.

    OOOooooOoOoOOoo, I'm a ghoOooOooOOOost!
    Oh, he will. He'll just really hate that he has to. And he won't consider the things he's passing for human.
