Dec. 2025

I have a lot of thoughts on this game and World of Darkness in general so expect this review to be a little bit waffle-y. Vampire: The Masquerade is at its core a game of personal horror - that's the original tagline of the TTRPG. You are a monster cursed to never truly connect with humankind again and walk the path of Caine - on top of that, vampire society is nothing but lies and backstabbing over and over again in an endless pursuit of power that is ultimately meaningless as you will always be a pawn in someone else's game. Thomas Arturo sums this up very well: "You thought that being an expert chess player would always be enough. You never realized the people at the top simply flip the chessboard over and punch you in the face whenever they don't like how the game is going." This is why I do not fault the game like many other people who played it and thought "But wait, there's only the one real ending? But what about my choices? They didn't even matter!" "But wait, there's only the one real ending? But what about my choices? They didn't even matter!" because that's the point. Your choices don't matter because you are nothing and will be chewed up and spat out by everybody else. Granted I think that's a very fair criticism to have with a game. It's really annoying when an ending is such a downer like that despite your best efforts. In the World of Darkness though? In Vampire: The Masquerade? The game of personal horror? It fits. It just fits.

Dec. 2025

There's enough here to sink your teeth into. I had low expectations and they were exceeded. I was new to this genre when I got this, so my observations are probably pretty obvious to others, but the art and music really help set and maintain a tone you wouldn't ordinarily get. It's surprisingly effective how just a looping animation & atmospheric sounds bring you into the story. I know RPG isn't among the tags for this, because it really isn't one, but the story leaves enough space for you as a protagonist to digest the story beats as the character you're making select choices for. The game doesn't have any expectations you're familiar with the tabletop, so it maintains a helpful glossary that grows through the story to feed you information in a non-intrusive way organically as the narrative unfolds. I'd recommend this and I'd even go as far as to say it's worth snatching up the soundtrack if you're into setting background mood music while studying or entertaining guests. My only criticism is I sort of wish there were more of this caliber. I think the story is just the right length, so I don't necessarily mean longer. Voice acting may have helped enhance the experience. Coteries of New York was a bloody good time.

Oct. 2025

I genuinely enjoyed Vampire: The Masquerade - Coteries of New York. This game shines in a few key areas that make it worth playing for fans of the setting. The artwork is fantastic, capturing the dark, moody atmosphere of the Vampire: The Masquerade universe perfectly. Crucially, the characters are well-written; they are complex, memorable, and the best part of the experience. The overall story is engaging, featuring good twists and turns that kept me hooked from beginning to end. However, the narrative can feel a bit rushed and disjointed at times. It felt like some major plot points needed more time to breathe, which occasionally made the progression feel a little abrupt. Despite the pacing issues, the strong writing, phenomenal art, and stellar character work make this an enjoyable and engaging visual novel set in the Big Apple.

Aug. 2025

I would recommend this ONLY if you are interested in Vampire: The Masquerade and want to delve into its lore a bit from a neonate's point of view. For a first taste of the RPG, it's fine. I love the whole urban horror and World of Darkness vibe, and it's somewhat satiated my appetite. Plus the fact that it comes with a dictionary for the terminology is great for someone new. BUT. If you're looking for a game/visual novel where your decisions carry weight and there's replayability, turn around; you won't find it here. There are three clans to choose from, and the only thing that changes is the slight flavor of some dialogue at certain points. The rest, once seen for the first time, can be skipped with the CTRL key at maximum speed; it's irrelevant. The only reason to replay it would be to see the end of some sidequests or completing the storyline of one of the 4 companions available to unlock, and even then this barely has any impact on the end of the game in the slightest except for some flavor again. So, that's it, a good start for a newbie to Vampire The Masquerade, a relatively interesting story that more or less shows us how Kindred society works, but it feels more like a book accompanied by art (beautiful, it must be said), with 0 replayability or variations based on decisions.

June 2025

If you are into interactive vampire novels, look no further! Very well written, very engaging, the characters are excellent. You can choose which characters you choose to ally yourself with, so if one character arc does not strike your fancy, there are many to choose from. The artwork is excellent. I appreciate that your choices change the story. A+++
