Already in the opening video of this rpg, you get the sense that this game is deeper than the usual, and for me, it kept me glued to the screen until the end of the game. The characters are interesting, the music is the best and helps maintain the gothic feeling of the game. The quests are most often very well composed and often surprises and frightens you. When creating a character, you choose from the different races of the Vampire rpg-world. I played as a Ventrue, the leader-race of Vampire-society. The great rpg experience and level-up point system as well as the talk-mode reminds me of Fallout, which is not surprising since Troika made the game, and I sincerely hope this tradition lives on (fallout 3 too hopefully..), as this appeals to me. You will have to spend the experience-points carefully though, the game has some hard enemies.

The game has a very dark and creepy feel to it, so it is not for everyone. You won`t survive here unless you`re cold enough to suck blood of a strangers neck.

Lacuna Coil and Tiamat have some great sound-tracks here, the other sound tracks are also great.

The graphics are neat, the environment of the night-towns, the clubs etc. is generally interesting and enjoyable, which is important as you will have to do a bit of walking back, forth and around to solve the quests.

As for the combat system, II found the sneak and kill-method a bit too easy compared to the man to man fighting. I can`t say I totally agree with th critics saying the combat system is very clumsy. It works quite well with me.

Just one thing to say, this game warms my heart..
