Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 Malkavian Clan Revealed - MMORPG.com

Paradox Interactive has put out a new post and video about the Malkavian Clan, the final full-blood clan that will ship with the game. The Malkavians are also known as the Clan of the Moon and are considered to possess knowledge of things no others have access to -- but with a price.

There are two things missing in this trailer.

Will there be a multiplayer mode ? 
Any information about that ?

True clarity lies in complete insanity.

I guess they don't want us to play slutty looking undead cheerleaders?

So is each clan going to have its own storyline you follow or is it one story that the clan you picked melds with?

Same storyline, which varies according to clan. Well that's what the original was like anyway.

I'm treating this game the same as Cyberpunk 2077. Staying far from any information to enjoy the full surprise at launch. These are my two most anticipated western releases while also trying to keep the hype at a minimum.

Didn't we have Nosferatu and Tzimisce in the first game? I guess they may be a dlc, but it is that sort of game design that makes my play at least a year after launch. I can't reload a game 6 months later when new content comes out, just the way I play.

I don't think there was DLC in the first game. They barely got it out the door.

Well lookie here, the psych ward has finally been announced!

They were included, only Nosferatu was playable.  Really, though, the restrictions for Nos make them super tough to include in an RPG.  They literally cannot be in the presence of humans without breaking the Masquerade severely.

Would love to see the Tzimisce playable, but I want a full-on fleshcrafting system if they do!

I think that's sort of the fun. Keeping out of people's sight.

This game has some big shoes to fill. Where's that in-game footage?

Really? It's a single player RPG.

In the tabletop, this is pretty easily gotten around with Obfuscate. At level 3, you can appear as a normal person nobody pays any attention to.

June 10th at E3, it's mentioned at the end of the Malkavian trailer.

Hope not.

I agree, The first game didn't have Multiplayer, why should this one?

Nilden

This is like revealing a M16 for the next Call of Duty.

Or maybe they should make a Minecraft 2 and reveal dirt blocks.

I'll save the suspense for the reveals for the other clans. These all better be in it.

• Brujah
  
• Gangrel
• Malkavian
• Nosferatu
• Toreador
• Tremere
• Ventrue

Captain Obvious reveal much?

A dlc for the new game with the two missing clans. If you want to do any sewer lurking we may have to wait for that.

Grangel and Nosferatu aren't going to be playable in the base game.

If someone came out with a new and interesting solitaire game, there are people who would bitch that it didn't include multiplayer.

Nilden

Ok well my excitement is about on par with making Minecraft 2 and having the wood and sand blocks as DLC.

Does this have a cash shop?

Oh Joy for modern gaming.

The first game, Redemption, had multiplayer and it was a blast. A quasi Neverwinter dungeon master mode.

Yes, bloodlines 2 needs multiplayer. Can you imagine what modding and private online RP servers with some tools for dungeon master would do to the game's longevity?

Ignoring that possibility is a missed opportunity in my opinion.

This is Bloodlines 2, a sequel to Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines, which did NOT have multiplayer. This is not a sequel to Vampire: The Masquerade – Redemption, a totally different game which DID have multiplayer.

I was looking through the pre-order page and saw this, 'Jeanette Outfit.'

 I see it will be for sale at GoG, good.

@Azarhal
How much is the season pass if you wanted to get it later?
24 hour early access?
Is there a site forum for the game?
