Things… aren’t looking good at the moment for Bloodlines 2, but I still will choose to be an optimistic individual going into all this latest controversy; for how long I can maintain it though, remains to be seen. Welcome to more Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 news, more-so an update and follow-up to my previous news video. Bloodlines 2 right now is met with so much more uncertainty, we the Bloodlines 2 community and in general Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 fans want to know what’s going on with Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2. Let’s hope for a successful game, let’s hope for a successful Bloodlines sequel, let’s hope that the Bloodlines 2 controversy isn’t another hard nail in the coffin.
I’ll hold out my optimism for Vampire: The Masquerade Bloodlines 2 for as long as I can, but I just don’t know how much longer I can keep hold of it; I don’t know what will fully diminish it, but we’ll see. If you’re upset about what’s going on with Bloodlines 2, then I encourage you to speak up, let Hardsuit Labs and Paradox know why you’re upset with the Bloodlines 2 controversy, but keep it constructive. Encourage them to speak to the community, don’t push them deeper into a corner. Hopefully soon, we’ll have a proper Bloodlines 2 update and, overall, a proper Vampire: The Masquerade update as a whole. Time will tell what lies for the future of this long awaited sequel, and I hope for our sakes, Bloodlines 2 will be worthy enough for us fans to deem it a true success.

Let's ride this dumpster to the end of the Earth.
this looks eerily similar to the debacle that CP2077 is in now. Definitely gonna take a wait and see approach with this one and not get too hyped up
I hope they could learn some good lessons from the unfolding follies of CDPR. We just cannot let our beloved VtMB2 follow the same fate of Cyberbug 2077.
My biggest fear… the only reason you would fire your lead writer, would be if you planned on making sweeping changes to the narrative and they were giving you push back… In the light of that and these job listings, this is definitely gonna be a "wait and see."
Given the fact we all know what happened with the first game back in 2004 and also given the fact we all already waited more then 15 years for a sequel (most of us probably didn't even believe there will ever be a sequel) I think the VtMB community is the most patient gaming community out there. Most of us are wiling to wait and accept delays if such are necessary. They don't need to rush the game, they just need (as you said) to talk. If not for anything else, just for the fact this game has been available for preorder for an year and a half if I'm not mistaken.
I just hope there aren't some suits up there, just like with CDPR, saying "we can't give more money for this project before we start taking something in return".
Getting rid of Brian Mitsoda and Rik Schaffer is so unimaginably dumb. Guys that have been in the industry for over 20 years, who made the first game the cult classic as we know it, those are the people you decide to fire? After Rik probably made dozens of songs, and Brian laid the groundwork for the story, they fired them to put in some people with less than 5 years of experience. Unbelievable.
The diffrenace is the CDPR will fix cyberpunk 2077 and make it even better then its originally was supposed to be, compared to VTMB2. And its such a shame, Both games should have been great RPGS.
Great video! I'm worried that Bloodlines 2 is going to turn out to be some kind of sh*tshow where fans have to step in to complete the full gaming experience like in the first game.
I'll happily sign up for the music and SFX department. 😉
I can't wait to see what it's going to
Look like
Is there any official word about Scahffer fired? I m trying to find i, but i can find news only about Mitsoda.
After what happened to Cyberpunk I wish they will delay this game another year if it is not ready. I want it to be as much close to perfect as it can be. It is a miracle that at this point, no developer is working under crunch. For me, they can have all the time of the world to make this right.
100% of the issue is how the firing of Mitsoda, followed by total radio silence, looks.
Without a good answer for that I don't think they can possibly reclaim the goodwill, and if they had a good answer I don't think they'd have stayed so silent.
If you want more Vampire Bloodlines I suggest playing these overhaul mods…. Clan Quest Mod, The Final Nights, Prelude 1, Antitribu, War Games and Bloodlines Extreme….Just make 6 copies of your vanilla game and install each overhaul into the new fresh install…. This way you can have all of them ready to go and installed at the same time with separate save files… That's hundreds of hours of content to enjoy and more Bloodlines…..
I am not that worried. Cyberpunk released 6 months too early, we shouldnt really talk too much about CD project red when we know the mess this company is in right now. I want Bloodlines 2 to release in as a good state as it can be. Also this is Paradox, if you know anything about Paradox you know they make DLC… and I mean they make ALLOT of DLC. So the new hiring's can be for something like that. I hope for them to release with as few bugs as possible.
Seems like the white wolf curse striking again. Werewolf earthen blood isnt looking much better tbh. Im not going to hold my breath. At least i still have bloodlines 1 and the tabletops. Rip.
Deley it untill 03-12-22 if it makes it great.
I just want to play a game that has heart and soul like the original did! It seems like, these days, that's too tall an order apparently 😥
still it says on the pre order page Release December 2021
Never played the first game in my life until two days ago. I saw this game on GOG so that’s why I gave the first game a try. I’m loving it so far (even more than CP2077 lul).
I just hope they keep delaying the game if it’s not ready. Don’t repeat past mistakes from the first game and certainly the latest example of CP2077.
Bruh they need to show us more of this game. Just to get an idea of where they're at.
I'd like to be able to play as the evil clans, like the Giovanni
After Cyberpunk i just don't believe in modern RPGs anymore. Fallout 4 and 76 ruined Fallout, Andromeda ruined Mass Effect, 2 and Inquisition ruined Dragon Age. Bloodlines 2 already shapes up to be a massive disappointment and Cyberpunk…yeah, barely even an RPG. Seriously what on earth is happening to western RPGs?
in world of darkness optimism is a weakness.
I am pessimist by nature but i do admire optimists, we need some of those to at least keep up appearances. And yes i am very salivating at prospect of getting vampire bloodlines 2, i want my malkevelian heart to go on another journey through dark alleyways and seedy underbelly of some city. i just had many games that i saw come back from brink that should have stayed dead.
Trust and respect has to be earned, and this new team has to do something to earn it, proposed solution of them giving updates is probably best compromise.
Now listen people let's not blow them up if they delay it multiple times like a certain game that came out this year that they had to rush cuz of everyone pushing them too release it
comments about cdpr did not age well 3 weeks later
Oof, that CDPR comparison didn't age well.
Idk what to think at this point.. CDPR told us everything happening that we wanted to hear, delayed 3 times and still put out pure dog shite. Not in a rush for bloodlines 2 anymore. Take your time release this bitch in 2022 polished and proper
honest i think game be scrapped
Thanks for this information!
Its so pity that russian youtubers dont really care about new information of this game, but you really helped me!
Goodluck to you and your channel! 🌻
Why moern people are so demanding ? XD
Adding more whys 😛
