Emergency notice: We are currently being invaded by zombies. See this thread for details.
Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com.
Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.
Yeah. Sex positivity and kink in a cringe way, especially cause the devs probably remembered mid schlick that these are vamps/monsters.
And somehow Vampire love has to be... distinct? from normally abusive/toxic relationships for some reason.
Missed this.
Damn my alerts.
Because they wanted to score imaginary points on an imaginary scoreboard that nobody but them notices or keeps track of.
Having Malwa actually be the word, and have it make sense for widespread usage, would take actual effort, instead of the 15s it took them to go...
I really think it comes down to 'I understand this' vs 'I pretend I understand this' vs 'I'm convinced I understand this.'
The devs understand their counter culture. Which is why the old VtM got 'punk' and 'edgy' but doesn't get 'principled rebellion' and V5 gets 'activism' but not 'punk.' And...
Yeah, but like, all of that would take thought, effort, and understanding.
Don't you know every Anarch is a punk rocker or antifa communist? Nothing else exists, soooooooo.
Probably because they think Anarch can only mean 'anarchist.' And not a more nuanced or general 'I don't particularly...
See, like most modern 'activists,' the Devs don't actually understand social issues. They're about five calls deep in a game of telephone and are basically LARPing as people who are politically aware.
Convincing them of this fact is, of course, basically impossible. As such, writing a game...
Missed this somehow.
All the various vamp sects are basically some organized crime derivative. Given that the Cam and the Hecata corner the market on corporate conspiracy and the mob respectively, with the Sabbat having the cultist angle...
Should some of the Anarchs be 'activist groups that...
Victor, making all the wrong decisions, maybe for a number of correct reasons. But delegation is a super power. Use it. You have other duties to attend to.
Why would Hungarian Fascist Terrorists target anything in Vienna? Like. They would be pretty tied up in Hungary.
Seriously, with how many things IRL just fall out of the news cycle after the initial surge "pending investigation," everyone watsonianly and doylistically could've just carried on...
V5 is a product of it's time. It tries to ape what came before but the devs don't really get it, as it was back when VtM was made.
That doesn't mean it's a bad game, or that it's unplayable. But it's not the same experience.
I actually like hunger dice, for instance, over the blood pool...
Seattle got started on Penny Arcade. Same ST.
And not to my knowledge.
Seattle is like that.
LA was really obvious that there was someone going 'this is what you're going to do so we can fit all of these things in the episode, and let's hope we don't have to steer.'
New York's season 1...
