Don't look at my hours in-game, I have beat vtmb on pirate version after I bought it on the steam (steam version didn't work on my computer with official patch) (+/- the game takes me 20 hours or even more)

Okay, so first of all - actually, in my opinion, it's the best RPG-dark fantasy game. The whole universe "world of darkness" is awesome! I haven't noticed such a good atmosphere in any game.

Technically Vampire the masquerade bloodlines is built on source engine, so combat with guns or melee weapons are decent and simple. But the main roles are played by the plot and choices. Do you want beat the game like a badass and arguing with everyone? Of course you can! Or you prefer persuading and manipulating everyone and taking profits from this? No problem! Or you just want to be ultra sneaky and moving on through serwer? Oh, it's possible too!

My favorite pros is that each quest could be done with different paths - the best example: One guy has been attacked and lost money while he trading with bandits. So you can just kill'em all... or be sneaky, go into robbers house and steal money and the item, that the guy wants to... or just talking with them and persuade the leader of the gang to give that item and bully him to give back the money.
