Vampyr Can You Get Population Healthy Again if You Bite and Killl Citizens

jiminator

I don't see whatsoever recent threads about this, coming out next tuesday.

What struck me equally interesting was the following :

Every one of Vampyr's citizens is part of an interconnected social web, and the fate of one denizen in a social circumvolve volition touch on the everyday life of the others, equally well every bit the direction of the narrative. Each denizen has their own story, life and personal quests – and every last one tin can be spared or sacrificed in Reid'due south quest. Reid is a vampire, and the fastest way to evolve and unlock new supernatural abilities for combat is by drinking the blood of the living. In Vampyr, it'southward non "Practice I kill?" merely "Who practice I kill?". Deadly encounters plague the physician's journey, and each denizen offers a tempting source of ability… but there will be consequences.

Consequences in most games are actually "weak". You become around robbing and killing anybody and that is the norm in a lot of games. Other games you just rob them and try not to get defenseless. Anyhow because of that I went ahead and picked it upwardly.

The game dropped early for some people (Xbone and PS4). Here is a two hour stream that starts a fiddling means into the game and so SPOILER ALERT if you lot watch it.

It's so Dark.............. You should exist able to article of clothing sunglasses and go outside.

Been watching this. Sounds intriguing. Dontnod had a smashing idea with Remember Me, just the execution was severely defective. It looks like this game is a better realized concept and more of a real game than that was. I never played Life is Strange.

I'm probably going to pick information technology up, but I'm not sure if that twenty-four hours will be tomorrow. It looks very interesting, notwithstanding something about it feels off to me. I'thousand non sure if it's the combat or what. I'll have to cheque out a few more gameplay videos to exist sure. The plot definitely interests me though.

jiminator

Life is strange was a pretty solid game. I did non like the conclusion options, but all the points upwards until there were really good

jiminator

game is interesting. just started, hither is how it looks.

Information technology explicitly states y'all tin make the game easier based on the people yous kill.

I am assuming this is in regards to "blood" targets, vs melee targets, since combat does non announced to be optional.

iv map zones, possibly some weapon crafting.

KamelRed

I put about 2 hours into the game. Combat is decent and requires some attempt instead of just spamming the attack push button. The game is much more communicative than I anticipated and requires you to practice a lot of dialog interactions with many different NPCs if you lot desire a juicer XP bonus for killing them.

The graphics are kinda of a mixed bag. The environments look alright but adequately generic at times with the aforementioned wooden crates, barrels, etc strewn almost. The character textures are bland and muddied, like they were painted on, lacking whatsoever real articulate definition and look similar they were stolen out of a Telltale game. Model clipping is rife in chat scenes.

Existence I'g merely a little bit into the game I'm non sure how I feel overall near it yet. You tin tell its not an AAA budget game but information technology has enough quality there for me to keep going.

Vampyr review - a beautiful premise wasted in this bland action RPG

That'southward the real disappointment with Vampyr - it doesn't say or do anything new with the genre (already sadly under-utilised in video games) or the interesting premise it sets up for itself...instead it retreads old tropes with no flair or wit of its ain...added to this, there'due south a full general lack of smooth that tends to stack upwards...it'southward also unclear how much individual thespian choices actually matter...

"Buy, Wait for Sale, Rent, Never Touch on?" - dude actually liked information technology and called it a buy

given that districts tin can turn to shit based on histrion actions I don't understand the previous claim that player actions don't thing,. function of the game design is you tin can assist people to "meliorate" their blood then impale them. The more yous practise this way the more you level and the easier the game becomes.

Has a 74/100 so far on OpenCritic out of 50 critic reviews. Contributor reviews reflect it. Some of the more glowing reviews seem to have rose tinted glasses on from Life is Strange.

By the way: the game is capped to 62 FPS on PC...

Y'all tin can easily uncap it by editing an config file...

BiH115

Eh, fuck it. I think I'thou going to choice information technology up when I'thousand at Best Buy later today. It looks interesting enough to me, and I've been following it for a while.

This changed my heed a bit I'd say.

Derangel

Sounds like whatsoever review talking about player choice not mattering did non bother to explore the game fully enough. I wonder if some of the reason that is happening is because it is so close to E3, and so reviewers are trying to juggle getting games done while getting prepare to go to the outcome, combined with Focus not sending out keys to everyone at the same time so some reviewers got more time to play the game and others didn't.

I don't call up a person should take to re-play a game 3+ times before it's 'goodness' starts to show...most people barely stop 1 run much less multiple playthroughs...yous're request likewise much of your audition

BiH115

I don't think a person should have to re-play a game 3+ times earlier it's 'goodness' starts to show...near people barely cease 1 run much less multiple playthroughs...you're request too much of your audition

I retrieve what they're trying to say (and what people generally mean when they say a game shines after multiple playthroughs) is that the game is pretty solid past itself, but should you cull to play multiple times, you'll find yourself seeing new/exciting things, thereby creating the incentive to play once more.

Armenius

I retrieve what they're trying to say (and what people generally mean when they say a game shines subsequently multiple playthroughs) is that the game is pretty solid by itself, but should you choose to play multiple times, you'll find yourself seeing new/exciting things, thereby creating the incentive to play again.

Adding to that, I also think what they mean is that you won't detect the divergence from your actions unless you accept played the game 3 or more times. The game's single machine relieve organisation will forbid about people from seeing different outcomes in a single playthrough.

jiminator

another video to assist explain better. the concept for replays is that all the characers are very well fleshed out in terms of story arcs and interactions with other characters. Some may get upset with a death, others may gloat. These are not typical shallow NPCs where y'all merely perform fetch quests

KamelRed

I had an issue with a "colonnade" denizen which fucked me over. I had choosen a blueish text option which seemed to exist a pacifist choice but so right later that person was considered "missing" and dropped the morale of that area a lot. I had never fed on a citizen until then...I changed subsequently that happened.

Afterward on I returned and that person returned equally a lvl 24 skal. Killing them gave me a primal to a breast that contained garbage. After further draining more citizens of their life claret I slept and their zone inverse to hostile.

Hostile zones kill anybody left live and replaces them with skals. It popped an accomplishment at least so it wasn't a unabridged loss. Besides failed a quest I had in that surface area too.

Edit: I used the blue text option on some other "colonnade" citizen and it worked equally expected. I don't know if information technology was a bug the first time or an intended consequence (didn't seem similar it should have been to me). Really fucking hurts not having quicksave for crap like this.

BiH115

Picked upwards the game yesterday while out doing some errands, and put about an 60 minutes into it. Actually digging the atmosphere, music, and the fantastic voice acting. The few experiences with combat were pretty good as well, I think this'll be a solid game, don't feel whatsoever regret with my purchase so far.

I rarely play games again subsequently chirapsia them (specially straight abroad) but I call up I'k going to do a "good" playthrough side by side. Currently doing an evil vampire playthough. I'thou maxing out a districts population with hints to get the max xp and so I go around murdering anybody. The devs said you tin playthrough the game without killing anyone (in that location'southward an achievement for it) just that it would be a long difficult route. Does appear that the good playthrough is harder every bit you probably dont become as much XP. Was speaking to a guy on reddit who unlocked the accomplishment for beating the game without killing anyone, he said he was level 27 at the end of the game. I think I am close to the end myself and I'yard level 35.

I rarely play games over again afterwards beating them (specially straight away) but I remember I'yard going to do a "good" playthrough next. Currently doing an evil vampire playthough. I'm maxing out a districts population with hints to get the max xp and then I go effectually murdering anybody. The devs said you tin playthrough the game without killing anyone (there'southward an achievement for it) but that it would be a long hard road.

I'm not sure what I'1000 going to do yet. I retrieve it'll be a mix of good/bad.

I rarely play games again after beating them (peculiarly direct away) just I think I'm going to do a "skillful" playthrough next. Currently doing an evil vampire playthough. I'm maxing out a districts population with hints to get the max xp and and so I go around murdering everyone. The devs said you can playthrough the game without killing anyone (at that place's an achievement for it) only that it would be a long difficult route.

I was going good until the game kinda screwed me over with a dialog choice. Unless yous are highly skilled in combat (which I am not) you lot will probably have to farm enemies on the streets and cure citizens to boost levels.

I'one thousand near just over halfway thru the game and I'grand lvl 26 after killing quite a few citizens.

I simply finished the game, heres the small review I left on Steam.

This game is admittedly fantastic and is highly recommended. I got it when it came out and I haven't been able to put information technology downwardly. The music and vox acting is brilliant and I would say spot on. I loved the investigative nature of the game, trying to find hints to unlock dialogue options. I beat the game taking an evil route. Basically I unlocked all the hints for all the characters in a district (unlocking hints boosts the XP gain you get from feeding on them) and then I would feed on the entire district. I beat the game clocking in around 23 hours of played time, I would say about an hour of that was AFK fourth dimension. The combat did accept some getting used to simply I had no problems playing with a keyboard and mouse. As far as functioning goes and tweaks: I did unlock the frame rate and was able to run the game capped at my monitors refresh rate (100hz @ 3440x1440 resolution). I am running a Titan Xp on a i7 7820X @ 4.5GHz.

jiminator

So, what does dying in combat practice? I run into it resets your wellness and empties claret meter. Do enemies respawn? Are there whatsoever other changes?

KamelRed

I'g pretty close to the finish of the game maybe some other hour or two left. So far the game has performed pretty well and no crashes. I'grand getting around 60 fps while exploring and anywhere from xxx-60 fps in conversations @4K and max settings. Beyond some clipping issues I've merely experience 2 gameplay bugs so far. Once was the blueish text choice I talked well-nigh before in this thread and the 2d 1 just happened a piddling while ago. I lured a NPC and they did the T pose like you would come across in a model editor. After I embraced him his corpse sat on some stairs and I was able to talk to him and embrace him again (no bonus xp). I walked abroad to become after another NPC and the buggy grapheme was teleported back to their original position. Later the territory went hostile, the buggy character was but listed equally "missing".

I'grand going to hold off on replaying the game after I beat it until a patch or 2 hopefully comes out before long.

jiminator

I have merely been piffling about, did not like how my game started, so restarted information technology. The stun/bite/claret bomb appears to be a pretty good combo. I was avoiding combat last time, not knowing the ramifications. Anyway not this time. Unfortunately though in wandering I stumbled across a pack of level 19 skals (vs level iv) trying to intermission a gate vs an erstwhile human. They tin OHK me, and so that is damned annoying to striking a time limited mission yous tin't practise.

Lumpus

It sounds similar it has a little 'Fallen London' vibe to it - could be interesting, just for the story

Manny Calavera

Been watching this. Sounds intriguing. Dontnod had a great idea with Remember Me, just the execution was severely lacking. It looks similar this game is a better realized concept and more of a real game than that was. I never played Life is Strange.

Life is Strange was fantabulous, imho. Been playing Vampyr slowly for days,excellent game. Groovy atmosphere, well written. Got mine preordered on Steam months ago.

another video to help explain better. the concept for replays is that all the characers are very well fleshed out in terms of story arcs and interactions with other characters. Some may go upset with a death, others may gloat. These are not typical shallow NPCs where you just perform fetch quests

Truly excellent descriptions of how the game works,information technology really is worth a purchase. Masterful story telling,great music, temper and above boilerplate voice acting,plus honest to goodness replayability,with character choices we tin brand that have meaningful effects on the story,game world,etc. I'd give it eight.5 out of x,I am about half into Chapter 4.

BiH115

I have only been piddling near, did not like how my game started, and then restarted it. The stun/bite/claret bomb appears to be a pretty good combo. I was avoiding gainsay concluding time, non knowing the ramifications. Anyway not this fourth dimension. Unfortunately though in wandering I stumbled across a pack of level 19 skals (vs level 4) trying to intermission a gate vs an quondam homo. They can OHK me, and so that is damned annoying to striking a time limited mission you tin can't do.

I ran into that same trouble with that exact same mission. If you trigger the issue, it shows up in your quest log. You lot accept to complete it that night if it'southward a "salve the denizen" type of quest, otherwise they are dead the post-obit night. I recollect this is my biggest gripe, as basically means that if y'all're underleveled, you're fucked (y'all won't get to talk to this person). The good thing, is that this doesn't impact the good ending at all, since yous didn't actually kill them yourself.

I'm all the same enjoying my time playing despite that outcome and this ane weird loading issue I had where information technology just wouldn't stop showing the loading screen betwixt districts (had to restart the game). I'm liking the gainsay besides (and that was my main gripe I'd say from watching videos, information technology looked sort of lame). Once you get a few abilities to use, and upgrade your weapons to where you're getting blood back on hit, you're able to use your blood abilities more than often, which makes for a dainty rotation (I mainly use sword, stun, claw, and bite). I'd focus on upgrading your melee weapon asap, at least to level 2, it makes a massive deviation. The guns are alright (shotgun does tremendous damage if upgraded though), only I prefer the melee off-hands.

Additionally, brand sure you create cures for everyone that needs them in all the districts you've visited so far. If you lot sleep and at that place are people with colds and suffering from anemia/fatigue/etc., that district's health will go down (even having one sick person will arrive go down quite a few pct points). Overall, y'all want to sleep equally little equally possible. Amass every bit much XP as you can before going to sleep, right up to the signal where you can't actually keep due to enemies being too strong.

jiminator

yep, accept finally establish the last batch of cures. no kills, level 11. combat is interesting. lock on kind of sucks as you don't rotate but I suppose that is realistic. very solid game overall.

BiH115

aye, have finally found the last batch of cures. no kills, level 11. combat is interesting. lock on kind of sucks as you don't rotate simply I suppose that is realistic. very solid game overall.

I'k definitely trying to go for no kills also on the initial playthrough, only I may play again and go ham on anybody just to see the results. Lock on isn't as well bad, at least they permit you practise AoE damage and flick the stick to choose who you want to focus on. Little clunky, merely again, non also bad.

jiminator

welp, came to the geoffrey mccolum fight and my build was useless against him. youtubed information technology. changed my build... to find anybody sick in every district. considering of lord asbury. pulled some saved game folders out of the recycle bin.... I think that is going to need some changes....

Domingo

I watched some of the videos on Steam and thought it looked awful, but it seems to exist (and wait) quite a bit better than those reverberate. It's virtually like they wanted the game to look like ass in those.

Drexion

Completed this today 50 hours in, got the good ending every bit I killed no civilians and had good for you districts. The game certainly had it's enjoyable moments and brilliant spots, and looked promising early on just by mid game it just felt mediocre. It took good blueprint elements from other games, and tried to mash them together into a bit of a clunky finish production that didn't really excel in any one particular area.

The voice acting was absolutely summit class and the best technical aspect of the game. The varied characters, their backstories and their relationships were too very well done.

What the game needed to meliorate the experience:
-Implement fast travel betwixt hideouts
-Allow skipping dialogue one sentence at a fourth dimension (correct now it skips to the cease completely)
-All the shortcut doors/gates from a preceding area to a new one should all automatically unlock one time you enter the new area (this sounds like laziness but it'southward a level design upshot)
-More fine tuned responsive gainsay (to be more specific: (1) remove being 'stunned/staggered' on every fiddling hit and (2) Increment the speed of the standard melee and 'turn around and melee' animations)
-A civilian in a healthy district should only get sick once, one time yous cure them they gain immunity and never get sick once again unless the district loses it'southward healthy status
-Abilities shouldn't have flat values but scale off the damage of your weapon. Some of my abilities felt useless as I could merely melee for more damage.
-A way of traversing the city that didn't feel tedious and annoying. After clearing an area for the starting time fourth dimension maybe y'all unlock some ledges/rooftops that you can use to teleport around.
-A larger map with more than areas - only because they finish upwardly using and re-using certain areas/rooms over and over and over. In that location'south places/areas/rooms/buildings you needed to visit many multiple times for quests or otherwise throughout the game. "I accept to go there yet again? For the 5th time?"
-The quest icons for some of the 'collect item' quests needed to be more than specific instead of a huge circle over an area. All this did was annoy people plenty to google 'what to do/where to become'.
-Give enemies stamina and cooldowns. Enemies seem to have space stamina and no cooldown on their abilities, belatedly game this gets annoying when some enemies spam abilities over and over.

I'd say the game is worth picking up when at $19.99 or lower.

Superjoe

This game is astonishing, at least to me. The gainsay is not normally something I would go for, and I've rage quit a few times. But the music, atmosphere and story go on sucking me back in. I recommend it.

Greg Watson

Looks similar an interesting game. I may have to option this one up

Araxie

just started this game and was terribly turned downwardly past the disgusting Antialiasing methods used for the game, it is a blurfest every option of AA probably will have to add reshade with lumarshapen to improve the feel a flake, as TXAA 4X (not 2X not 6X( is required to ready the icky hair/beard textures in characters, i accept spent more time trying to fix those small issues than actually playing information technology, kinda sad.
