Seeing some new traffic into this older video! This was my pilot episode and I was/am super proud of what it was and what the show has become over time. Enjoy this older video with some weirdly mismatched audio quality!
JudgeMathas super fun video, you got a new subscriber.
Hope to see a Vampire The Masquerade: Redemption review
RUclips directed me here. I enjoyed your enthusiasm for the games.
My favorite quest in this game is the haunted house quest. Shit scared the shit out of me.
To this day, I still consider it one of the best Haunted House experiences I've ever had in a video game.
That and Thief the deadly shadows orphanage/nuthouse mission. Dunno which is creepier.
I've replayed the game numerous times. Each play through, I mute the entire mansion quest.
If I remember correctly, the Ocean House level won an award back in...2004 I think it was.
Fun Fact: This was the first third-party Source game!
Good Job BB
Don't trust him Mathas he just wants G Heals
oh my goblins, is this the famous big brother winner and runner up and renegade member dan gheesling?
Welp, time to install and play Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines again.
Fun trivia, It's highly hinted that the Cabbie, is infact Cain, the father of all Vampires.
Fuckin' Hell Man
I believe the developers intended him to be that Malkavian from the books who thinks he's Cain but yes his voice files are all labelled "Cain".
We know Could be, but the Cabbie Driver also demonstrates this Black Aura that cant be seen from any other vampire in the game.
That and Smiling Jack did infact meet THE Caine.
Fuckin' Hell Man Could've just deablorised (or however you spell the act of feeding on other vampires) but you have a point.
Also if he really is Cain then the fortune teller's prediction make a lot more sense all the sudden.
SPOILERS
also there is that ending....
this game was amazing, plus you've gotta love the soundtrack, anyone else ever just sit there listening to Deb of Night? XD
I'm really liking this format. Almost like the stuff Spoony put out back when he was good. Very informative and fun to watch, and it is HARD to make a long review that keeps the interest.
That's one hell of a review, Mathas. What a great job! So well written and thoughtful! My only question is: why the second channel? Because people are lazy and most of them won't watch it, while on your main channel it could have much more views. Overall, it was amazing, thank you so much.
Fun fact the developers of this game weren't even adequately paid for it. White Wolf was shut down right when the game came out and Activision kept all the profits
So basically if you buy this game on Steam you're just giving money to a greedy publisher.
Minor correction (better late than never): Trokia went bankrupt after the game came out, of which Activision didn't help. Valve wouldnt let any game on the source engine come out before HL2, and Activision had the bright idea of pushing the game out along side HL2. As such it was overshadowed. The staff at Trokia after the company went under, stayed on (unpaid) and pushed out a patch to fix some major bugs, which was then carried on by the community.
White Wolf own(ed?) The World of Darkness and licenced it to Trokia to make the game, and as far as I'm aware, are still going :)
I did the whole game with only my fists, because that's how I look at the vampires: powerful, strong, smart and beautiful. I killed everyone with fists, but I never could beat Ming-Xiao. I didn't deal enough damage and it wasn't enough of the blood. I didn't have enough points in firearms or melee weapons to beat her either. I just had to use some console commands to kill her so I could finish the game lol :D
How have I never seen this guy before. He deserves more subs. Reminds me of channels like PB&j
Hey thanks! And welcome, I hope you enjoy the vids :)
That was really good & obviously you will get even better. It was great seeing a critical & intellectual review of a game from you. I want to watch your playthrough sometime because the game looks more interesting than I first thought.
Some of the editing was good, some was too clunky & not as flowing as it could be but I *really* enjoyed this content & I think this is going to be a great series.
You're right, it does look a little bit like NL.
wheet?
4:29 You don't speak about Egg daddy that way.
Oh the memories..
i still remember finding this game (somethin like 10 years ago) attached to a monthly gaming magazine that gave out 1 free game each month;
i also remember that, for some reason, they screwed up the process of burning the cd copies, and had to release a patch in the next number of the magazine...awesome.
anyway, i loved this game so much..
still remember playin for the first time as a Gangrel...an amazing time; i still remember the "snuff film location" quest
my second playthrough was as a Nosferatu...and it literally was a different game;
i had to play so differently :
you can't talk to humans for example..which are most of your conversations otherwise;
you have to use the sewers instead of the streets;
you have to use the "secret nosferatu" levels and hideout;
seriously, an hidden gem if i've ever seen any
Man, I loved this game when I was younger! Thanks for the nostalgia trip.
I used to play the heck out of the pen and paper Vampire: The Masquerade game, and this game (besides the combat) seems pretty faithful to the setting and lore of the Camarilla vampire clans and the attribute/ability/discipline system.
Excellent video, I really enjoyed your review Mathas! Bloodlines is one of my favourite RPGs of all time (next to KotOR 1 and 2), I still have my 4 CD original edition. I loved the quests and the story so much, that I had to play it as Gangrel first, then a Malkavian back in 2004. I recently played it through again with the Final Nights mod as Setite, and I gotta say, it still holds up, just as you said.
Once you install the fanmade patch this game truly lets you see how much of a jewel it is.
I like what you're going for here, style-wise! Really excited to see more Judging! :D
As for specific feedback, some of the framelong jokes ("Nope" "Nice touch" etc.) were a bit too short in my opinion, but something like that is must be hella hard to accurately plan. Props for giving it a go! :P
Overall, me likey. I like the choice of doing a short 'prologue' before the intro, you mention both the good and bad, and the overall description of the game paints a rock-solid picture of what the game has to offer.
Basically; POLISH, BIATCH!
that bit at the beginning reminded me about my first d&d campaign with my drunkard Russian dragonborn who didn't do much besides hit wolves with a stick
the origin of the diss track. 4:30
so an ACTUAL rpg. not rpg used as slang term to mean leveling system
Or superficial choices that only have one outcome and no further effect on anyone.
I don't get why there aren't any good Vampire/Werewolf games like this today. Imagine this game with todays graphics!
holy awesome! I can hear the music of one of my favorite SNES games ever --- the Pushover
Get this game from GOG. It's only 20 bucks and that version is completely fixed. No bugs or other issues. One of the best RPGs ever made.
the Santa Monica hotel was my jam. so creepy, and there's nothing to fight.
You talked about guilty pleasures... well this is mine :D The best Vampire RPG I know.
Mathas, did you ever play the Legacy of Kain series? They're great games (Defiance especially) with amazing voice acting and a good mix of combat, story and kinda-sorta exploration puzzles.
I have back in the day. I should revisit that someday...
If you do, please let us know what you think of them now. I love them, but I'm a bit biased, what with growing up with them.
Charlotta Lind I second this request. Kain and Raziel are two of my favorite fictional characters to this day. I get giddy every time I hear Kain's voice actor in another game.
It's my 2nd favorite series ever. You should definitely review it!
I hope you guys are happy now. :D
Lovin' the Yoshi's Island music in the background.
Judge Mathas, I confess I'm guilty of loving your new channel!
spoiler. spoiler. spoiler. a spoiler relating to Cain
The cabbie is very likely to be Cain and it surprises me that some people still don't know that.
Never played this online game, played the pen and paper version and loved it.
ahhhhh the music it's from isaac! i thougth that it was from vampire the masquerade: redemption because I've played that one, LOVE IT too
Celerity vampiric power made for me combat a lot better for me. As to everything, they were not rushed to do, they put great effort in making "bullet time" fun both to watch and to play.
Pretty good review for somebody with shelves full of amiibos.
There is a ton of mods for Bloodlines that fix a bunch of problems, and the graphics updates and clan updates are really well done. Also, this is a sequel to the game VtM Redemption.
Fun fact, one of my hilarious teachers worked on this game.
If I remeber well, you can get better apartment from the Prince in Downtown
Yes, but not for all clans. Treme vamps get a room from their primogen, and Nosferatu get housing in sewers.
Sequel announced, hell yes!
My favorite RPG. A masterpiece!
White Wolf was one of my fav. table top games.
Gah, your reaction to your apatment is so Ventrue it hurts. Seriously though, love the video. Someday you should do a special or something on your tabletop exploits. If you're a Ventrue in WoD, I can't help but be curious about what type of character and class you go for in D&D.
...I also want to make a joke with the way you used obfuscate at around the 15:10 mark, and the in-world ability Obfuscate, but can't think of anything witty. How embarrassing, considering I play Toreador.
I really enjoyed this game back in the day. even with the bugs. I honestly had no idea there were mods for it, let alone on steam. I may have to check this out
Mathas rolling natural 20's
This is a fun game. If I remember correctly, there was some kind of drama with the publishing/company that caused them difficulty. There is another, earlier Vampire game where you start out as a crusader.
I loved the Masquerade! I think that company who made the game was bought by CCP (Eve Online) even though they had another project in mind that never saw light of the monitors. Learning that Paradox has rights now makes me eager to play again game similar to The Masquerade. There is another Vampire game but not nearly good as this one. Much older.
The WoD is my bread and butter or should I say my blood and power.
i played it and was amazing, one of the best rpg i played
Oh how I loved this game
hey mathas this is awesome bro keep doing you man..... Ur kinda like my hero you make me feel like my dreams are possible like any thing is possible ty.
one of the best games ever! i wish if they gonna make a new one or better yet an MMO version of it
i always loved the Tremere.
Paradox Interactive recently bought the IP and are in talks with Obsidian.
Amazing game
World of Darkness is a great p/p rpg. My personal favorite is Vampire:The Dark Ages, but I haven't checked out the wild west werewolf one yet so that could change.
i love these videos，cant wait for more. I feel like I should try this game because every single positive is something I loved about fallout: New Vegas
This game is insane!!! Everyone should try it out.
Surprised you didn't mention what happens if you break masquerade too much...
heck...I'll tell ...you get vampire hunters hunting you and. they are really hard to shake
Great videos bubba gonna watch them all!
I got quite far through before I quit due to a game breaking glitch. Which was sad. .maybe one day when I have a stronger pc and instal some mods I'll try this gem again. Those 20 hours were still great.
hahah great :) now I want to play this game and also see your series of it.
Keep going, I want to see your channel grow. See some more reviews of games your passionate about. An some favorite lists maybe some let's plays I am subbing.
Its especially a great game if you use the community patch.
Your reviews are awesome. Keep them up.
Looking at the footage, I'm surprised how well the game held up graphically. It's nothing impressive but the design was very servicable
Time to re-install.
Mate, where were you all this time? I love your style, you got a new sub!
He was on his main channel, mathasgames
You get it. Game is freaking amazing... was buggy as hell, but loved it nonetheless. I totally ripped the music files from the original install, and still listen to the music. Surprised you did not mention the music.
If you like this game, you should definitely try the original Deus Ex!
It's in my top 5 best video game RPG's ever. I wish they would make a remake of this game kind of like what Nintendo did with the first Resident Evil. But to be honest, I don't have any faith that anything as good will come out of the World of Darkness. You simply get to much choice in a world that wants you to level grind in linear hallways with one or two pre-determined characters to choose from just to get to the next cut scene.
I know what your saying..this game is not a first person shooter and an has a great deal of sexual content that other games only wish they could achieve. it's a rather evil fun ride
Good shit son ;) nice work
Paradox Interactive HYPE!
In case anyone needs a second opinion, this game really is dirty. If you are a RPG fan, get you some.
its a great game for the day. awesome story too.
This game needs a bloody remake.
Cool vid. I loved playing it. Mostly as Brujah and Ganreal. But, also I did pretty good as the Torador. My Brujah was named Zeb. Gangrel name Nisa Un Zeb. And Toreador I forget what I named her. Though I made a Tremere named Sabrina. (Cause I thought it was funny.) I liked that the game had different endings depending on what you did. Was annoyed you couldn't romance Damsel. Since she was voiced by Courtenay Taylor. The same woman that voiced Jack from ME2 &3. As well as the female hero in Fall Out 4. I still have my Blood lines CD around here some ware. I could never get the mods to work. Since some of the other Clans I saw people have on U-tube would have been fun to play. The Tzimisce in this game was messed up. Jeanette didn't make it threw my first play threw since I went all Camarilla. I had to make changes to the power structure in LA. Sadly Troika didn't stay on. They were good at making games. This game was way better than Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption. Sadly no Multi player in Blood lines. It was an awesome game.
Seen so much about this game but haven't gotten to play it cuz I didn't have a pc. just got one not too long ago so waiting for the summer sale to pick this up
My only real criticism is that this really doesn't need a second channel. Realistically, how many of these are you going to do a month? 2-4? That's easily fit into your current line-up on the Main channel. All that's going to happen is less people will see them and probably discourage you from continuing what could become a fantastic series, especially after you get more comfortable with the style. Just my 2 cents.
Loved it buddy! Keep it going friend. Have you tried out Vampire the Masquerade: Redemption?? I find it a far better D&D experience. It has DM multiplayer ability. It's very fun. One of my favorite RPG's of all times.
One of my favourite games! 😀
we just might get a sequel after paradox is finished were wolf the apocylypse (another wod property) great news to hear. For those wondering about the cabby pay attention and finish the game ffs.
Dat Isaac music! :D
For me the first game “vampire the masquerade redemption” is much better. I don’t now why this one is so praised. Even so I wish they would continue to make games for this universe.Personally I like games like the Witcher where you don’t have to make your own character or games like dragon age origins where every character has a backstory and that story becomes part of the game.
played this game when it first came out...I stealth though the entire game. it by far is one of the best rides you'll ever take
been looking for the sequel for 10 years...
the actual ending will knock your socks off... there's many different endings depending on you choices
there's a following??? hmmmm
Aside from the footage being a bit repetitive I really have nothing to point out! Great job
Man, I had respect until you said Ventrue are superior and showed off the NWoD book :P. Nah jk, you got a new sub, very well done review
the taxi man, its cain, this is not an spoiler, because is never tell u on the game, this was discovered becausa the audio of the taximan had the name cain. Srry for the bad english.
I actually suspected it based on something he said... or something my Malkavian said. I love how the game really understands the source material, and it's really rewarding to someone who's played the pen'n'paper rpg for years.
Speaking of which, a spoiler:

The Sheriff knows Viscissitude 6, which makes him a really old Tzimisce, so pretty much unavoidably Sabbat. Which makes me wonder if the Prince is too. Didn't someone in the game comment that they came into town together, after all?
i want play this game again and put more sttention on the detaila
you do realize that you can learn non class disciplines as well. Plus Vicissitude is also discipline for laibon Nagloper bloodline which would make good fit for sheriff (since they also have animalism).
You can actually switch back to 3rd person while using guns.
thank you so much for reviewing this great game!!! (also tremere ftw)
Reminds me of the early days of pbg and spacehamster
Chara just take it for what it was is....jeez
But...but...I like the old days of PBG and Spacehamster...is that so wrong?
Great video!
Awesome video, love ya :D
It is a sequel itself...
Wrong World of Darkness book though, what you are holding are for the New World of Darkness now the Chronicles of Darkness and Bloodlines are part of the original World of Darkness.
You deserve way more views then you get.
How about a few links to things we can use--like where to get mods. I tried nexus and there were a pitiful few and none that I could find on Steam. So where are they?
I think the only RPG I’ve actually finished was parasite eve.
With the unofficial patches? Because I distinctly remember they fixed the gunplay and kind of every shortcoming. Just play Brujah for guns. I kinda played through this 8 times at least, and while the combat does have shortcomings you can approach every quest at least 3-4 ways. Kind of like deus ex does it but better. Eg.: Talk, stealth, combat, use hidden traps terminals or the environment, use powers to make them kill each other... That is what helps so much with the roleplay.
I remember I was a temp at the Hungarian equivalent of PC Gamer when this released and Asked the guy who gave a shit review why he did so when he was a Masq fan. He didn't even get to act two because of the bugs. Everyone was so impatient with this game, it also had shit marketing.
Also the end levels are there so you can finally let loose and feel powerful.
I thought I had TBOI open and I couldn't find it
