Why the fuck aren't more games about vampires? They're fucking badass.
Because Twilight fucking ruined it.
It's not like we were drowning in them pre-2008.
They're overrated imho. All they could really do was bite people and turn into bats so then they made it that they've got super strength and are really good at things like kung fu as well. What next?
There's the racist and sexual undertones of an outsider polluting your womenfolk's blood.

Games are only about SoldierMen or Zombies.

Oh shit, maybe this is the new "all food is soup/salad/pizza/sandwich/taco/calzone."

Yer literal Dracula had more powers than "bite people and turn into bats."

Also, the Vampire: The Masquerade RPG this is based on had a really deep and interesting power system and hierarchy system for vampires. It's one of the best takes on this I've ever seen.

You think game developers are going to shy away from racist and sexual overtones?!

Is a calzone a sandwich?
No, it's a zombie.
No, it’s a pasty

No. Calzone is a quintessential food type.

Pasties, pies, dumplings, scotch eggs, and ravioli are all calzones.
Is cheese on toast a pizza?
Don't encourage him. And don't make eye contact.

No. Cheese and beans on toast OTOH

It's toast. Pizza is toast. Nigiri is toast. It's all toast.

Does a toasted cheese sandwich morph from a sandwich to a calzone if you do it in a breville sandwich toaster?
FUCK IT LOOK WHAT YOU DID
VTMB is among my favourite games of all time. This has original writer Brian Mitsoda and Chris Avellone on board. Also Cara Ellison from Rock Paper Shotgun. There's no reason for not to be excellent.
Any further posts about food catagories will be changed to stuff about vampires.
Could a vampire eat a cross shaped toastie?
A cross-shaped toastie is actually just an unfolded calzone.

Also, there are LOADS of vampire games, they just all look awful.

Does a toasted cheese Brujah morph from a Brujah to a Malkavian if you feed them the correct Elder blood?
Yes.

Well played giphy, well played.
Fuckity-Fuck-Yes! I fucking loved VTM:Bloodlines.
Castlevania games are good?
Symphony of the Night was. The 3D ones I tried afterwards... not so much.
Do you think vampires view black pudding as energy bars?

T'were ver good indeed. One of my favouritest xbox 360 arcade games, that. Some of the later 2d ones are meant to be good.

I've had this for ages, but have been afeared of playing it just incase it doesn't live up.

The first one of the 360-era was excellent. A nice mix of God of War (the early ones not the reboot) and DmC (the early ones not the reboot).

The various GBA and DS versions are very good. I wasn't much for Lords of Shadow though, although I mainly bought it for the limited edition Dracula's tomb thing.
