Hey guys, I would like to know what do you think about vampire games and what you are seeing as Features in a Future RPG Top-Seller... Yeah... some kind of market study here Thank you for your reply!

Hmmm, I don''t know about a dedicated Vampyre game, but my game will certainly have an undead element in it. Vampyres are cool for putting in games, just watch a bit of Buffy and be inspired

Thanks to all the goblins over in our little Game Design Corner niche

Okay, I undestand your point because of Vampire: The masquerade by Nihilistic, Buffy and company...

But our games has been designed 2 years ago before Vampire: The masquerade and all theses other cliché titles. Sorry but i did not like Vampire: The masquerade that much and we will not put a clone on the market either. So I dont think that follow the leader is a good expression for us. We want and we are innovative on many points but that you will only see in our final release (hehehe... I dont want to give the punch away! )

Anyway, Vampire: The masquerade could have been better in my humble opinion than it is if the guys would have put maybe 6 months more on the developement process fixing some bugs instead of releasing patches. I think that patches are the plague of the gamer. Who wants to download tons of patches to make his game bug free? As I known nobody.

Anyway all I want is your opinion about what would you like to see improve in a Vampire RPG game or in other RPG games theses dont have to be vampire type of game.

Oh yeah I forgot... how many platform or shooter type game is on the market ? duh follow the leader dudes ? If it is having a lot of copy sold and a good game to follow the leader... is this not the dream of any good game developer? Think about it.

Anyway ... just to let you know, our alpha version will be out around December so I will let you judge by yourself if we have made another clone or not.

Thank you and forgive me to be that direct. I did not take that comparison to Vampire: The masquerade very well...

Well they both have Vampire in the title, and that''s awfully convenient considering the success of the Vampire: The Masquerade game, isn''t it? Even if you don''t like it!

But that aside - I''m all for Vampires ( what do you think the V stands for in my name huh ), but what exactly constitutes a "Vampire Game"?

I''d like you to tell me, so I know what you mean.


People might not remember what you said, or what you did, but they will always remember how you made them feel.

Okay, i agree that Vampire: The masquerade was a success great!

Okay what I mean by a Vampire game is more like a 3rd person RPG type of game where the hero is a vampire or where you can have the choice to be a vampire or not... so a game where you can choose on wich side you are...

That was the point I was talkin about

Yeah I admit that I also love the soul sucking principle It is not primary into the Vampiric philosophy as it is in Legacy of kain (A pretty good game btw!). But what makes the vampire worst than a simple serial killer is that he is having the capability of robbing mortals souls.

I''ve been working on a kinda-vampire game for the past year. Go see two or three pics from it on the new www.landfish.com. This ends the shameless plug portion of our program...
