Graphically, it's very impressive for a free online game.

Seems quite limited otherwise, though. But maybe that's 'cos I'm so used to Cantr.

I'm digging graves at the moment...

Is this that crappy one where you get 'bitten' when you click the link then have to register??

[Nalaris]

It could be considered 'crappy', but you don't get bitten. That's some zombie one (try googling 'Graaaagh!'). That's just the link to registration as a vampire. If you put me as the guy who brought you to the game, I get extra loot.

I hope you promote Cantr on their forums as well - no extra goodies if you bring people in ... yet ...but we do record the references new players give

[Nalaris]

I will spread the word of Cantr...just not to them. Their community sucks. I'm avoiding their forums.

Only if I can be Malkavian.

[oddedd]

ahh west you are a WoD VtR fan then?

[Nalaris]

Someone please tell me what those acronyms meant.

And while you're at it, tell me what a Malkavian is as well.

Hell no.

VtM.

Requiem just seems lame to me for some reason. But then, I'm halfway through a yearlong VtM live-action chronicle and kicking some ass. Too bad the Gangrel and Malk primogens got ashed last game. Cam cities have a fair bit of drama even without Sabbat or Gehenna cults.

...

I may have lost everyone there, even Oddedd if you only do Requiem and not Masquerade.



Nalaris, WoD VtR means White Wolf Gaming's "World of Darkness" universe, "Vampire: The Requiem" game. I prefer Vampire: the Masquerade, which is the precursor to Requiem.

I made so much fun of my friends for doing a vampire LARP until I tried it. And then I liked it. And I was like, "shit, I will never live this down."

And a Malkavian is someone in the Malkavian vampire bloodline, one of 13 (ish) main clans in VtM. Their specific clan "curse" or attribute depending on your point of view is that they are all crazy. Bat-shit loco. Nuts.

[oddedd]

I followed a little, but is it not malkovian in vtm? In vtr malkavian is the same idea, lunatics, but it is a bloodline of the Ventrue clan, which I found quite interesting. The only real dealings I've had with VtM is the video game, but the thing I don't like about vtr is the covenants, but we've sort of left them out in our game haha,

No, it's Malkavian in VtM. Having Malks as a bloodline of Ventrue is absolutely ludicrous in my opinion. VtR takes all the fun out of vampire politics. Give me a Camarilla city with Sabbat and anarch infliltrators any day, 13 major clans and all sorts of minor bloodlines, over a 5-clan game with too many political Covenants.

The biggest thing is you need competent Storytellers to prevent everyone from being an Antedeluvian in disguise with horrible secret powers.

We have a 30-player game (!!) with 4 STs who have to approve everyone's characters and backstories and be kept in-the-know as far as out-of-game meetings, in-character conversations, plots, and so forth. In return they give us kickass plot and metaplot and keep the whole thing from collapsing under the weight of a few god-modding shmucks. As a general rule, for example, they don't let anyone be lower gen than 10; 11-13 is the normal range in our city. It's a good group.
