      I wonder how far you can take learning about someone can you go all the way then know how it would effect everyone before you feed on them or do you always take a risk. Another thought is on a "NG+" playthrough they could change the relationships to always force us to investigate/take calculated risks.

      I love it. Gets better the more I play.
      But... it is probably 60% adventure game, talking to people, looking for items... and about 40% exploring and fighting. So be prepared. It is more of a Telltale style game than most RPGS. This gives it a LOT of story... which makes it more interesting... but slows the pace down.
      As double A games go, it is really stable upon release, and even though the graphics are dated, it is atmospheric and suspends my disbelief frequently.
      The game is made to give you a bunch of hard decisions and let you decide what to do from there. It is far from perfect but it works often enough, and is truly unique.
      Definitely worth a buy, but if you don’t need a game immediately, you can certainly wait for a sale.

The way the game works is amazing and how you sleep and things happen to people and such. I do not regret My purchase.

    Its easy to go along with a doctor who specializes in blood as a vampire, because story wise, it could lead to him having a passion how to find new alternatives to satisfying his thirst for blood since it saves lives and allows other vampires to recognize his expertise and how to coexist in a city with humans and vampires working together. Could lead to a very good story where vampires can be everywhere without having to constantly have a mob rioting after them. Maybe the best vampires are all doctors since time isn't relevant to them and this is their way of "agriculture" or farming to upkeep their lifestyle. Makes you think if the last doctor who help you out at whatever clinic or hospital lives a hedonistic blood sucking life. Nah...that's just me imagining this.

Maybe because it’s an indie developer that made a game that looks AAA kinda but has things that show it not being a AAA game. I think the combat is a little off but an update could fix that. I would know what to fix though to make it feel better but some developer would

Some updates may help but it might be too labor intensive to add more combat animations to completely address the issue.
      But again, not a dev. May just be full of crap.

      No roll, no heavy attack, no block - well your feral zombie/vampire enemeies can block but you cant apparently. I enjoy the story aspects but I just keep wondering what the devs were thinking when they put this combat together.

  • @Cluffinator
    @Cluffinator 6 років тому +4

    The voice acting in this game is pretty solid. I don't remember any stand-out moments, good or bad. The dialogue itself can be a bit circuitous with optional dialogue like asking a question, receiving an answer, then proceeding with the primary option only for the character to ask the same question he just got an answer to. That kind of thing really got under my skin and began to feel like those extra options were just wasting my time.
    The combat is enjoyable at the best of times and rage inducing at the worst. Blinking from left to right while a lone human desperately tries to reload his crossbow in a dark alley is pretty exhilarating; it really captures the feeling of the nocturnal apex predator. However, at least on the Xbox One, enemies have a tendency to close wide distances between themselves and the player during attack animations that result in unfair hits. If I had a dollar for every time an enemy started an attack from across the street and slid into me for some cheap damage I'd be as wealthy as a Dawson (ha). Stamina is a vital resource in this game's combat system and you want to use it as judiciously as possible. If a target is outside of melee range, you don't want to waste stamina by dodging or parrying an attack that shouldn't have a chance of hitting you. Sometimes that works, but a lot of the time it doesn't. A lot of the deaths I suffered during my playtime were a direct result of this particular enemy behavior.
    The game was under a tight budget, so it's understandable for the combat to take more of a backseat role during development. It definitely feels more functional than it does enjoyable. Sometimes it just feels like filler between story bits. I would have loved to see the combat and exploration expanded into a more stealth-action style like what we see in titles such as Horizon: Zero Dawn or Dishonored. Walking down the same street and encountering the same group of baddies just got a bit tedious for me.
    I'm about 90% of the way through the story right now. Looking forward to finishing it. Just waiting for the game to recover from it's latest crash. :P

    Loved Vampyr, so much so I played it through 3 times, got the Platinum, saw both endings and I am longing for more vampire games of this type, though hopefull with slighlty more polished combat and some bug fixes.
    I loved how characters reacted to certain deaths, and how districts we're impacted by the choices made. It made me feel conected to thr situation and like the reviewer made me very selective (on mt free for all playthrough) about who and why I chose to kill, on occasion the dialogue felt long winded but overall kept me engrosed and interested, as doughtfull as DLC or a sequal would be I would find either/both most welcome, and even though this title had a low budget they produced in my opinion a great triple A game, more deep narative single player games are needed.

    People say single player games are a dying breed? I don't know. I do like these massive games, but also sometimes I find them to be a bit much and am happy to play games that you can finish in a day or a few days. I got shit to do.

    Idk how some people would play this at broad daylight irl, the mood when you play this at midnight is way different.

      I do like to do stuff at midnight but it’s draining my energy in the morning so I figures people just have time during the day and they do what fits them

    I just played it after the ps+ and the game was good. I was really surprised by the depth of every each charachter in the game and the dark and gloomy atmosphere is great. Although the combat was quite bad sometimes but the main feature of this game is not all about fighting. This game isn't scary at all if your a bit of a scardy cat like myself i fully reccomend everyone come and check out the game

    I bought the game last night and waited till it went public to play. I ended up playing till 4 in the morning and had to force myself off it to get some sleep when I woke up this morning my internet was out and now I sadly can’t play the game. This is honestly the most upset I’ve ever been when it comes to not being able to play a game.

    It's the end of September 2023, and Halloween is right around the corner. I played this game a couple years ago and I actually liked it quite a bit. I think I'm gonna play it again since it's still on PS Plus Premium/Extra.

    This is my first vampire game and so far I’m loving it. It gives me Bioshock, We Happy Few, and Bloodborn vibes.

    I wish games were more creative like this. All these companies care about is money, it’s so sad. Growing up I always wondered how video games would look when I got older because of the advancement in technology. I am so disappointed in games nowadays
