I’m surprised it’s not cancelled yet.
I think at this point its development is even more troubled than the original, which is kinda impressive in its own way.
This is at least the second attempt to make VTMB2. The original version by Hardsuit Labs was entirely scrapped and restarted at The Chinese Room.
I spoke to the new devs at PAX last year and they said they were only reusing assets from the Hardsuit Labs version and otherwise completely making a new game from scratch.
This new version has only been publicly announced since late 2023, although it probably started development sometime in late 2021/early 2022.
Right, that’s why I’m not convinced this will ever actually release.
Abandoning all previous work, and the fact that new devs don’t exactly have experience with this genre…
I’m still gonna give it a try, but I’m not hopeful.
Hopefully they’re adding a third person perspective…
Poor VTMB2 is cursed.
Not to mention it will difficult for it compete with the sheer uniqueness of the original VTMB for its time.
Its beyond difficult to compare to a team that had an entire conversation
treeline with a stop sign.The Stop Sign gets a lot of the attention, but the TV host was the highlight of the Malkavian run for me. When I heard
Police say that vigilantism will not be tolerated, and that they know it was you.
it stopped me in my tracks because I really didn’t expect it. And the conversation with the TV host is as funny as the stop sign I think.
