Vampire the Masquerade: BLOODLINES 2 (And Other VtM Games)

I doubt it. I dont think us actually driving in game will be a thing. 

VtmBL2 pc gamer article, some new stuff we didnt know yet;

Five playable clans at launch, less than Bloodlines, but a focus on making every clan as distinct in play style as possible. (Though we already know they'll be adding more Clans post-launch for free)

Unique abilities and areas to explore depending on clan. Players who want to "see everything" will need to play as different clans.

Able to equip two melee and two ranged weapons at any time.
^ this makes those articles saying we disgard firearms completely after they're empty, flat out wrong lol

At high levels can use devastating special moves, where the camera will zoom out to third person.

Can repair masquerade violations through specific tasks, like joining a clean-up crew to clear up masquerade violations from other vampires.

Clean-up crew run by a weird, desensitised guy named Bart, used an example of the black humour in the game. One clean-up crew mission has you clearing the mess left behind by a vampire + human romantic encounter; "if someone had exploded in a small hotel room, that's what that would look like. You're there to just pick up the pieces. Literally, pick up the pieces, and Bart just comments on whatever's there while eating his noodle soup

Someone scanned the pages from the pc magazine article featuring bl2.

I mean, it could still be a thing (just probably not automatic), the article also says that your loadout could look completely before and after a combat encounter. Maybe discard a weapon to steal the one enemy has and then shoot them in the face with it?

Nines is too good for WoD setting. Or maybe his skeleton closet is just really well hidden.

Clan Reveal #2: Brujah



In Vampire: The Masquerade—Bloodlines 2, you'll begin your unlife as a Thinblood with few mates, but eventually you'll be able to join one of five vampire clans, including the rebellious Brujah. They're the angry, righteous punks of the World of Darkness.

The Brujah are known as 'The Rabble' to the rest of the vampires, and they're not ones for institutions or authority. They used to be a clan of warrior scholars—you play as one in Redemption—but in the modern age they're viewed by the other clans as punks and troublemakers.

There aren't many Brujah in Seattle, and most of them are what remains from failed Anarch movements. Anarchs reject the vampire establishment and, not surprisingly, it's a movement the Brujah find appealing. That means they aren't affiliated with Seattle's bloodsucking political factions, so they might be a good choice of clan if you want to be a bit of a wild card. They love a good brawl, too, and even host undead fight clubs. Their vampire powers also reflect this penchant for pugilism.

While the Brujah have a rebellious streak, they still follow the Masquerade, and using one of your disciplines out in the open is considered a violation. You wouldn't want to get in trouble with Seattle's sheriff.

You'll keep your Thinblood powers if you join the Brujah, too, so you'll still be able to transform into a cloud of mist or summon a swarm of bats. And of course you've got all your conventional attacks and weapons, too. It looks like the Brujah quite like their baseball bats. And their leathers.


Brujah Disciplines

Potency

The signature Discipline of the Brujah imbues their undead bodies with the pinnacle of raw Kindred strength. Nobody underestimates the strength of a Brujah twice.

• Fist of Caine (Blood Cost: 2), Potence’s first active power, allows the Brujah to deliver a devastating punch that turns walls into rubble and throws enemies through the air, tearing of limbs and causing collateral damage. The • • slot enhances these devastating effects even further.

• • • Earthshock (Blood Cost: 2), the second active power, smashes the ground with titanic force. The impact causes a shockwave around the player, damaging and knocking down anyone who dared to stray too close. After further upgrades with the • • • • and • • • • • slots, the ground cracks under the Brujah’s onslaught, sending fissures outwards and damaging anyone caught in this cataclysm.

Celerity

Some Kindred strike faster, dodge quicker, and escape more nimbly than any mortal creature could hope to. They use Celerity, the Discipline of pushing their bodies’ speed beyond all limits.

• Unseen Storm (Blood Cost: 2), the first active, allows the vampire to dash in a direction of their choice at such a speed as to momentarily disappear from view, allowing them to land attacks, dodge around enemies, or get away before the dust has time to settle. Characters struck along the way of the dash get knocked down. The • • slot further enhances the Unseen Storm.

• • • Accelerate (Blood Cost: 5), the second active, opens up speeds so fast that everything else in the world appears to slow down to a virtual standstill. Assailants seem frozen in their attacks, cars crawl forward, bullets zip by lazily, and the vampire can get up to the kinds of stunts that, with a popular 80’s synth track in the background, would make an awesome movie scene. The • • • • and • • • • • slots allow the vampire to further improve their acceleration.

I like what they are doing with Disciplines, turning them into actual active powers instead of temporary stat boosts. I'm curious to see what they did with likes of Auspex and Presence. Or what will be secondary power of Obfuscate.

Aaaah, I want to know everything

Also, what do you think will be the next week's clan reveal?
