Nighthawks - Ultimate Vampire RPG
 

Richard Cobbett is the guy behind Nighthawks, which is said to take inspiration from Sunless Seas and Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines.

More information.

These seem to be pretty respectable devs that have made some well-received games, and the idea sounds interesting. But that promo video is very unfortunate - couldn't do much more to scream "cheap knockoff".

This is definitely not the first thing that would come to my mind when talking about an RPG inspired by Bloodlines.

Is this supposed to be a gamebook? Those are never very popular on steam.

Regardless, anything by Wadjet Eye is bound to be at least halfway decent.

I don't see anything "ultimate" there. Besides:

So another interactive book basically?o_O

I'll pass thanks for getting my hopes up with the what inspired the game.

Yeah, this doesn't look like a cuppa that I would enjoy. It was a nice tease though, you made me look!!

After watching that video and reading a few previews it's mostly a Visual novel with maybe a few choices enabled/driven by your skills. I might buy it one day on sale.

As I played other games like this. Just don't call it an RPG.
Starting to wonder if anyone will make a Vampire Masquerade inspired RPG. Probably never as Paradox just sits on the game Ip they bought a few years back.

It's an RPG gamebook. Not a visual novel. You create a character, level up, make choices, and success depends on your stats and dice rolls.

Most of the gamebooks on steam are mediocre, but a high quality one would be great.

So now we play RPG gamebooks instead of reading them?

Wait hold on.
Yep same as a visual novel in concept.

Have you played Sunless Sea or the House of Many Doors? I really enjoyed both of them which surprised me. I bought Sunless Sea on sale for 5$, and was surprised how much I enjoyed it. Its funny, because the Banner Saga, for example, was a huge dissapointment for me. So if this is like Sunless Sea, I'd give it a go. Both Sunless Sea and HOMD had nice exploration (which was pretty much absent from the Banner Saga) and that's something you don't find in a visual novel. I will definitely consider supporting this one.

Nope never played Sunless Sea or the House of Many Doors.

I rather play Banner Saga so we differ on that.

UpdateWell that still doesn't make me want to play his game.

I'd prefer a 1st person RPG with the V:tM license.:biggrin:

A gamebook?Have not played one and probably will never play one.,.

As a fan of Failbetter and Wadjet, this is potentially very exciting.
