World of Darkness Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 from Hardsuit Labs

[Delterius]

avellone has become such a prolific writerhobo that even his current location is the target of NDAs

 

[Infinitron]

It'll be delightful if the release date is this year and it competes with The Outer Worlds.

What if 2019 turns out to be an insane Cyberpunk 2077-Starfield-Outer Worlds-Vampire clusterfuck?

Dates Employed Apr 2016 – Aug 2018

two years!
That's probably two npc companions instead of one, or even more.

We will have a good laugh,it is a win-win.

 

[Space Nugget]

It does give us an idea of how long this project has been a thing. All the way back to April 2016!

Whoa, how long has that been there? Fairfax LESS T_T

Maybe people assumed he was working on Blacklight Retribution lol.

So Chris Avellone just tweeted that he’s got “a big bomb dropping” in roughly a month... Coincidence?

It was kind of expected, really.

hype is getting out of control...

 

[Jedi Master Radek]

Can't wait to search the whole game to find a single Avellone written npc hidden somewhere in sewers.

This might mean that he might have a big contribution in the game's story and characters. Almost 2 and half years is a lot.

I'll only begin to even consider getting hyped once some footage starts coming out

"I'd work with Martin again, and gladly."

Chris "Good Word" Avellone meant it, after all.

Weekly reminder that we'll probably be playing as "social justice" "activists" Caitiff fighting the patriarchy Camarilla. Don't get hyped, hype is the mind killer.

Make that a Pander, and I'm game.

Not so much when you're contributing to a whole mess of other games simultaneously.

Isn't this what VtM V5 is all about already? Outstarwalker mentioned that Thin Bloods are much more important now...

Hilariously enough, this is the only realistic way for you to actually fight powerful vampires - to start off as a thin-blood and to fight them when their powers are unreliable during Gehenna. Shit, I hope that's not what they're going to do.

look at the bright side

diablerie might be a mechanic

Ugh, don't remind me. Remember diablerie from Redemption? Ugh.

 

[Lacrymas]

Yeah, I'm not kidding, unfortunately. I'm 90% sure we'll be playing as Caitiff fighting the authority. That also reduces the workload, Caitiff can be an easy cop out by saying "yeah, you can choose any disciplines you want!", so there's no need to make clans or reactions to your clan.

Why so negative.. they didn't pay him for 2 years so he would spend most time working for others. Maybe this explains why his contributions for other games were so small.

You could say the same about Dying Light 2 or Degrees of Seperation...

I checked his LinkedIn profile right after the tweet and it wasn't there, so he added it today.
