Another VTM game down the hatch. Here’s my playthrough in summary:

Can u guess what my favorite clan is 🙃

Galeb ended up being my favorite PC. His powers were inexplicably weak for gaming mechanic reasons but he had the best personality. Emem comes in second with my favorite storyline. Leysha’s available actions were surprisingly badass for her premise but the obvious-adult-playing-a-child by doing a fake lisp for Halsey was just so annoying during every single one of Leysha’s scenes and in the grand scheme of things I didn’t really care about her plot that much. Getting screwed over, manipulated, & lied to by the Camarilla is just Tuesday.

Overall I liked the game okay; I actually do like that the primary mechanism of the game is snooping through files & spying on people bc that’s cinematic realism for the world of Vampire the Masquerade, babey. However, some of the puzzles were straight up ridiculous, tedious nonsense & it was kind of annoying how often the game would set you up to perform a time-consuming task that amounted to nothing.

7.5/10 or something idk

#vampire the masquerade: swansong #vtm #video games #but come on if u wanted me to read files and spy on people a Nos woul’ve been perfect #the anarch compound was really cool too #basically what I’m saying is what if Swansong game setting but play as anarch nosferatu #i guess that speaks to how good the worldbuilding of the game was overall #there were plenty of intriguing subplots going on in the background #ig in summary #here’s my review: needs more nosferatu. and also not gay enough
