Vampire: Bloodlines Preview

Just RPG has put together a one-page preview of Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines, based upon their impressions of the game to date. Here’s a snip:

I like the fact that enemies and bosses will require particular strategies to defeat them instead of the standard shoot them until they fall method that you see in many games. As this is an RPG there will be many skills that you will learn in the game, skills necessary for you to complete your objectives. In one area that I was shown there was a door that you could go go through but it was locked. In order to proceed here you need to level up your pick locking ability to open this and other locked doors you may come across. But you are not restricted on having to pick this lock for this particular objective as the game may offer other various options for completing your objectives. In this instance picking the lock or persuading a particular character to reveal certain information are both ways of completing the same objective.
