gently caress Toreadors, they'll never know the joy of Purge. And yeah, early weapons combined with early fights are much more fun and forgiving than later encounters which sort of force you to power-game just so you can end the level already.

When do I get a different set of clothes? Do I have to look like this the whole game?

Pimp suit with cat-in-the-hat rave hat, best outfit.

Nosferatu was my first playthrough. I love that every type of armor they get is a gimp suit of some sort.

You can pick up on so many background bits of flavour text from emails, and the ever-increasing creativity of character's reactions to you being ugly as sin are hilarious.

So I somehow didn't fall down the hole in the stairs at the Ocean Front Hotel. Will just continuing as normal and ignoring the basement break anything?

Just don't fall into the basement after you get the amulet. You can't get out (happen to me).

Which clans are able to solve the "kill this person who knows too much" quests by making them forget what they saw instead of killing them? Is it just Ventrue (and Malkavian, I'm guessing)?

I think any clan can claim a diplomatic victory in such scenarios? It's all up to how many points you dedicate towards certain abilities.

Zereth posted:Malkavians Dementate. You know, it really got me that the Malkavian Dementate option for the Brotherhood quest was not to drive one poor witness out of her mind, but pretend to be her boyfriend and spout some cheesy poetry to make her be at peace. Maybe it was because I had high Humanity, but it really added a touching element to the game- the Malkavian might have lost his/her mind, but not his/her heart

Tremere can use level 1 dominate in convos too with Wesp5's patch I believe, but not 2+ so it has limited applications.

Really love this game, but I'm getting horrifying crashes in my latest playthrough. I remember playing through it on my old PC with no problems. Got the latest Clan Quest Mod version with the bugfix and the Malkavian whispers mod installed. The crash itself seems to be a BSOD, but it doesn't even show up. Everything stops and I can only see some lines on black background and I have to turn of the PC. It happens sometimes after a loading screen, or feeding, or just walking. Could it be my Windows8 64bit, or something else?

I would be grateful if there was an apparent pattern to these crashes, but they seem to be completely arbitrary. Are there known problems with AMD GPUs and this game? I have a 7850 which isn't overheating as far as I can tell.

I just got the manifest for the sarcophagus and all that and reported back to lacroix. I've done all the possible sidequests up until now (though I hosed up on the "twins" quest earlier on) About how many more hours of the game would you say I have left?

What is the latest bugfix/best patch for a vanilla playthrough? Still the Wesp patch? I'm OK with restored content if it was in the game files to begin with.

Gyshall posted:What is the latest bugfix/best patch for a vanilla playthrough? Still the Wesp patch? I'm OK with restored content if it was in the game files to begin with. Yeah, get the WESP patch. Personally, I think the Plus patch is fine for a first playthrough as well (it restores a quest or two, rearranges some items to adjust the games power curve, etc.), but some will disagree there.

It's probably easier to never play the game without the plus patch, if only due to the changes in item locations and the like screwing you up if you're used to the original.

I think my only complaint is that I wish combat wasn't so finicky as a mage. You can't take much damage and you constantly have to hit blood purge in order to stop them from attacking you. Plus you barely run faster than anything in the game Then to make matters worse, everything but humans soak guns like no one's business, which makes it more of a pain because my choices are guns or blood attacks since melee is never gonna be my strong point. Right now I just blood purge to stun and get up in someone's face and smg them, repeating until dead.

Did Wesp nerf the blood-thing in the art gallery? That fight is way too brutal for a required story fight that early in the game.

It's pretty obnoxious. Just chug blood packs, use blood heal and run away a lot.

I find sidestepping around that blood creature makes it a little bit easier to deal with as well as hitting him twice and then moving away to dodge his attack, repeat until he's dead. Alternately you can say gently caress you to Jeannette and skip the boss fight altogether.

Is there a way (a cheat even) to completely trivalize combat? I want to do another playthrough but the malk quest in the first area just leaves a bad taste in my mouth, and it gets worse in later levels.
