I last played this as a Female Ventrue, and I hate things that are different.  Don't really care about the name, but something appropriately pretentious would be good.

Not quite - there's at least one other one later on (he responds favorably for men, not so much for the ladies) but, spoilers. Seduction for men is pretty worthless, all things considered. Also, we are sending this poor sap after the loving president. Erwin the German fucked around with this message at 04:59 on Nov 23, 2013 |

This is one of the very few gay men in the game. A female player with points in seduction will see a seduction line to go meet in the alley, but the guy will brush her off. A male with seduction will be successful in luring him into the alleyway.

It IS the World of Darkness - everything sucks, so why shouldn't most computers be hilariously out of date?

Man, gently caress the sewer level. gently caress it with a pole. Gary makes up for it, though. Mostly.

F1, no contest. Statistically the best ending. Edit: As for the ~mysteries~... I think Deb is Kine. I don't really lean either way on this, but I'd like to think that some of the more interesting personalities in this game aren't vampires or connected to the world of darkness beyond inhabiting it. Grout being alive is fun theory, if only due to the whole skeleton thing and Ming's reaction to the whole thing as she was leaving. I'm not sure if he's the friend in the emails, though... and speaking of which... I've never really had a theory for who our friend is; my gut has always been Jack, but I'd agree that it just doesn't seem like his gig. Way too subtle for him... but who knows, maybe he has his moments of subtlety. I barely give the Voerman sisters much thought past Santa Monica, unfortunately. Malkavians tend to embrace those who come predisposed to insanity, so her having a split-personality prior to the Embrace would make sense. Then again, they're about as likely to embrace someone who doesn't have an insane bone in their body, just to see how the mirror shatters as it were. Considering their childhood, though, this seems unlikely; gonna go with her being the one person. As for the sire, this has never struck me as terribly important; and the romantic in me likes to think that, with a bit of outside help, the protagonist makes their own fate. A lot of WoD, and VTM to be more specific, has to do with inescapable schemes and not being in control of your own destiny. The player character having that sort of control after all that's happened, especially at the end after being told what to do constantly, appeals to me. Half of the reason why I'm voting for going independent, really, beyond that being the best overall ending narratively speaking.

Honestly, I was tempted to rate the thread a one the moment you slaughtered Chunk. In seriousness, though, it's hard to make the last leg of this game all that compelling. While I consider this ending to probably be one of my favorites in any video game, all of the actual gameplay is really agonizing. You're either yawning at how ineffectual everyone is or cowering under the combined weight of five vampires with assault rifles murderizing your social-butterfly form. But yeah, I love this ending. It's just perfect. LaCroix's voice work is great, and Jack just oozes smugness. It really nails the whole punk aspect of the gothic-punk theme of VTM; you don't get into a showdown with the Prince, you fill a coffin full of loving bombs and watch as he tries his damnedest to kill himself with it. To anyone curious, here's the credits, complete with gothic butt-rock (which is also very much in the style of VTM's punk atmosphere, I think, but it's still gothic butt-rock). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OhhwtJZjOKI
