Vampire: The Masquerade – Redemption is a RPG game released on 2000 (!) and it's based on the same named tabletop rules. This is a linear RPG where you can't freely explore , there are no side quests, no respawns, some very buried choices and consequences only affecting the ending. --Since it's a VERY old game, I only recommend it to the curious. I used VTMR Crimson Edition and ultrawide fix only. You will use your main characters and up to 3 other party members to delve into dungeons, loot items, get experience, learn new disciplines and progress the quest. This is basically repeated throughout the whole game. Every quest has a dungeon, you go 1-4 levels, fight a boss, get the next quest. Because there are no alternative paths, side quests, choices or different ways to end quests, its more similar to a ARPG. ++ Setting: The ruleset and its premise is nice, it has an interesting story and part of a bigger world. That made me play and finish the game after 26 years. Also gives a good amount of VTM lore. +- Gameplay: This is a mixed bag. Itemization is TOO random and there are no respawns. So you can get very bad items which may force you to use exploits. You can get infinite gold by high manipulate, you can save load before opening chests to get better items. But in the long run, its the disciplines that decide the outcome. There are many useful and unfortunately useless ones. Some are game breakingly powerful (Prison of Ice) , some are meaningless to the core (Torch, control disciplines etc) . --> Some of these are remedied by a mod "Age of Redemption" however it also changes some fundamental stuff so I decided not to try it. Unfortunately for me game has no replay value so no comments about that mod's gameplay. +Technical: No crashes bugs, With the crimson editions, alt-tab is ok, 21:9 OK. Fullscreen and high refresh etc. no problem.

It would be unfair to compare Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption to Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines. Despite the two being in the same setting, the two are vastly different games with a similar appeal, but those differences can make or break your experiences. VTM:R is much more dungeon crawly, no matter if you are using the AoR mod or not. It's built into its bones to lean on being more of an adventure due to it taking from Vampire: The Dark Ages and similar source books. But ultimately it is a rather fun, competently put together game if you are willing to deal with it being more in the vein of Diablo and Neverwinter nights, rather than a proper action RPG. I would love nothing more than for this game to at least get an update to make it easier to mod, or a proper remake. Vampire: The Dark Ages is such a cool setting and it's sad that in the more popular media for World of Darkness, it's not referenced nearly as much.

This game needs a remastered or remake. Something! This was such a great game back in the day. Would absolutely play it again if it was done with updated graphics and gameplay.

(Played mostly via a launcher that didn't track hours played) This game kinda sucks (pun intended) by modern standards but I still enjoyed it for the story and vibes. Everything about it is a bit cheesy, especially every over-dramatic line the protagonist says, but all in a fun and entertaining way. Changing from the dark ages to modern day halfway through is also just a really neat touch you don't see often. The gameplay is..... well I hope you like very repetitive very annoying dungeon crawling with terrible teammate AI that can't pathfind correctly and wastes all their blood using the wrong abilities or stuck on a wall lmao. By the end I was cheating for free XP so I could finish it without hating everything about the game and don't regret my decision.

I played this in the year 2000. I played it with my band mates, co-op, using mods to make it look like Star Trek TNG. I played the crap out of it as a kid, and then ... nothing until recently. I had some issues with the GOG version, but this Steam Version? It just works. I just played it for the past two hours, and it was like I was 21 years old again. Only instead of a Pentium 1 with MMX, I can play this on my old, outdated Surface Pro, and it works amazingly well. Of course, this time I don't have as much patience to grind for XP, so I'm using the "-console" cheat to raise Christof's stats, lmao. God, it's fun to play like it's Y2K again. lmao
