I hope they nabbed everyone of those sick f**ks. Prior to the sting Chuck participated in a pedo sex racket where they groomed, filmed and exchanged child p**n.. for OVER 30 YEARS.

This guy was IMO probably one of the most dangerous predators to show up, could pass of as a neighbourly grandpa, soft spoken and calm, but was absolutely convinced that there was nothing wrong in diddling minors.

He seemed to know it was wrong from a legal standpoint, but morally thought nothing of it. Not to mention he tries to explain his behaviour on ‘books’ that he reads and ‘fantasizes’

I wish this guy got sent to prison and got a taste of his own medicine, lucky for him he got to take the shortcut.. death was too good for this monster.

Played Bloodlines 1 more than a decade ago, it’s somewhat fresh in my head but I went into this one after reading a lot of reviews that said this was NOT a true Bloodlines sequel more of a Vampire Dishonored rather than a Bloodlines game (a comparison I’m somewhat inclined to agree with)

I’m going to skip past the usual objections- yes this shouldn’t have been titled Bloodlines 2, and yes certain aspects of the gameplay loop are quite lore breaking.

But look, I actually enjoyed this.. the combat loop and parkour was fun even if it was repetitive. I liked mixing and matching skills from different bloodlines and for different mission sets, though some skill lines are way OP versus others (eg Ventrue, Banu Haqim)The plot was decent and was quite amused with how it managed to subvert my expectations especially towards the conclusion. I started to feel much more engaged and curious about the plot after the second dream sequence.

Hated the ending narration, they just pulled a Mass Effect 3 and I wish they had fleshed it out into a proper epilogue or atleast tied up a few threads together to make whatever choices seem a lot more consequential for the plot, apart from a couple of key characters you meet.

Voice acting was a pleasant surprise, and I quite liked the performances of a lot of the VAs. The Camarilla higher ups sound regal as expected and side characters were surprisingly colorful.

It goes without saying that Fabien was my favourite part of the game, and the VA, Ronan Summers did a A++ job. I’m actually a little sad that TCR is shelving this franchise, I really wish he shows up as Fabien again.

All in all, I enjoyed it way more than the reviews led me to believe I would, and I wish I see a lot more from this franchise in the future.

Do we know what happened to Chuck’s pedo racket after his arrest?

Just finished VTMB2: I enjoyed it way more than I thought I would.
