I may be a bit spoiled coming off of games like Planescape Torment or Deus Ex, but I do feel like Bloodlines is maybe a hint too restrictive in its design- a lot of the stats are nearly useless or at least pretty niche, a lot of the vampire abilities are kinda lame-ish and much of the endgame can only really be completed with combat or a mix of stealth and combat- I understand that the game had to be rushed but I did still walk off Bloodlines wanting just maybe a hint more of what it had (Probably worth a replay, then, with the Plus Patch this time).

Still I did really like what was there. There's some real good atmosphere, some amazing worldbuilding (Although I'm not familiar with VtM so I'm not sure if it is mostly thanks to Troika or the source material), and generally very high tier quests, though I do feel the game peters off a bit near the end.
