Do you like video games? Vampires? Both? Well this is the video for you! In this series I like to cover games you may not have played or even heard about. Please enjoy the second episode of: Three Games, Three Impressions.
@@maxdmacleodmy apologies I should have stated this better. I think the game design and gameplay is very dated. From an art aesthetic I love it. It's certainly a product of its time. But on just about every account of your opinion I agree.
@@pauls2066 it's certainly outdated in the "product of its time" way, as you said. Hell, I enjoyed playing BloodRayne more than looking at it. I'm not sure whether that's supposed to be an insult to the art direction or praise towards game design though.
@@thosebloodybadgers8499 i think because it's such a video game ass video game. It's not afraid to be hyper unrealistic which is the direct opposite of how modern games approach their design
i didnt play the first one, but i played Bloodrayne and Vampyr, and i think they're terrible for extremely different and similar reasons at the same time... Bloodrayne is as dumb and gratuitous as it get, while in Vampyr the good ending is becoming a communist feminist vampire, it sounds like im being silly or anti progressive, but if you played the whole thing you will know im not making this up... DontNod can't help themselves from injecting their politics in games, even if Vampyr allows you the freedom to choose how you go about things, it establishes very clearly that one way is evil, and the other is good. I dont samy much about Bloodrayne, cause after playing Legacy of Kain 1 and 2... Those games felt like a joke "ima slutty vampire!!!"... Pls... Both have incredibly repetitive gameplay too... One tries the "souls lite" and the other one is just generic ps2 action game that has aged like milk. Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines remains one of the best Vampire and RP games out there, as dated as it is, you won't recapture that level of honesty and lack of sanitized cynicism that plagues modern western games.
