For gently caress's sake why is there a turnstile in Venus' club? I know for a fact that it wasn't there in the original version of the game. unofficial patch horseshit

So apparently in the tabletop/larp version of VTM if a malkavian manages to "heal" their particular version of insanity then the GM will instantly force them to get a new one - an agoraphobe gets a handle on open spaces so they develop OCD for instance. I think something like this happens to Grout during the course of his audio logs.

Vicissitude posted:Yeah, they don't really go into it in this game. Every Malkavian has a derangement of some sort, but there are a very wide range of mental issues that they showcase. Some are even reborn catatonic or in a permanent state of frenzy. But the ones most common are in the V:TM book. Things like DID, multiple personality disorder, phobia, OCD, etc. One of the Sabbat's Black Hand operatives is a Malk with OCD and because of his obsessive attention to detail (with written plans spanning pages and pages that have 6 different contingency plans, each written in a different colored ink) he's rapidly becoming one of their most successful removers. He's even starting to rival the success of Assamite operatives.

weird, I distinctly remember Damsel chewing the player a new one for accusing Nines. Either the patch changed it, or my memory is on the fritz. Anyone else remember this?

Yeah, Mercurio is starts unlocking weaponry as you go through the game. Worth noting that since it's cheaper to buy ammo than a gun + ammo sometimes it's not worth it to buy his latest toy because it will show up in a mission anyhow. For example, never buy a Brokk. Kill a cop in downtown instead and buy extra ammo after you've acquired it.

Not applicable in this instance, but humanity has a noticeable effect on dialogue choices. Get too high humanity and it becomes impossible to blackmail/threaten npcs. Get too low humanity and, for example, you cannot let Lily out of the bloodbank without bullying her into giving you money. So be careful what humans you kill.

Tiggum posted:Huh. Keeping your humanity at maximum is so easy that it never occurred to me that there'd be a benefit to lowering it. I never experimented much with it - all I know is at 10 humanity that guy outside the santa monica apartment can't be bullied for his watch. I have no idea if this continues throughout the game or not. Additionally, you can only lower your humanity down to 3 by killing innocent civilians. To lower if further you need to do quests in such a way that they lower humanity - e.g. send Patty down to the bloodbank
