Not as good as the previous one. It could just be me, but this one did not hold my interest at all. The characters feel 'shallower', like there's not much there. I did not care at all what happened to anyone and it just felt empty and forced. Maybe it was less that they're lacking substance and more that there was no connection/substance between the MC and everyone else. Regardless, this is not worth the price. Hosted/Choices has much better stories that cost much less.

It's okay, but if I could get a refund I would. Definitely not worth the money after I've finished it a few times. It starts off fun and interesting and draws you in with the mystery and the set up, but it's disappointing in how it sort of deflates at the end. Too many stats, not enough points, some stats are useless and your choices suffer despite trying to play into your strengths. Plot points of interest aren't explored further and it's disappointing. Good writing tho, poor construction. Edited

I want to like it; I'll definitely replay it. Firstly, suspension of disbelief is fine, but this feels lazy at times. Stat gains/losses are all over the place. Stats used in choices don't have enough variance for playstyles, to the point my MC was the reincarnation of Barney Fife on a Halloween special. Still, the writing itself is a pleasure. Genuinely. Also, being on the human side of the plot is a neat twist. Buy it, but don't get your hopes up for a true successor to the last entry Edited

Honestly I'm on the fence about this. At first I thought this was a continuation of the last one,(not a branch off). But I was like ok, the last one was REALLY good and it's hard to top that, but it really had a good premise for the story but felt rushed and not fully fleshed out. Characters don't have any real individuality. Also there is a lot of using social skills,(charisma,manipulation,etc) in the very beginning and almost no combat and it locks you in a certain playstyle which is annoying.

Definitely a fun read. I enjoyed the characters and the plot, but it has some issues that should be addressed. Firstly the ending feels rushed and I don't think it's satisfying enough (at least for my two playthroughs) Secondly this game is advertised as "vampire hunting rpg" but you rarely actually get to kill a vampire if at all. Most times it'll just be vampires killing one another. Still fun, but I hope an update adds more.
