My friend played this Nosferatu who had been driven insane by his Embrace and had taken to breaking into houses and hiding under children's beds and in closets and shit.
Yeah, they're the only VTM thing that has room for something other then severe faggotry

No, single player. It's better for it though. There's so much going on with the different NPC plotlines that it won't matter.

Aw c'mon. Brujah, Gangrel, Malkavs...
My other friend played a Malkavian called Slicey who only used a straight-razor, and then later on other edged weapons. He had like maxed speed and all sorts of merits and shit that heightened his speed and we took to calling him the Blender by the end of the campaign.

There's all kinds of anti-stereotypical stuff you can do. Giovanni like to negotiate truces between the Sabbat and Camarilla, then take them for everything they've got while having their Wraiths spy on both sides.
Assamites take jobs from the highest bidder, then go kill those who can't be killed without a trace. (Especially Tremere, they love killing Tremere.)
Ravnos... well, they're gypsies, no one knows what they're up to.
In short, all the best clans are Independent. Lasombra are also cool.

Assamites?
They have to be the Tom Cruise or Twilight style vampires.
Seriously, the world of Darkness mmo will be the shit.
Fingers crossed.
I'll be there on day 1 for the Guardians of the Veil faction.

My old Brujah, a biker named Hank, kicked a human guard in the balls so hard the guy died.

My friend DM'd this incredible oWoD game a few years back. It was about a Camerilla Prince who entitles a few young vampires as Scourge due to a Sabbat invasion (that included plague spreading, creating thinbloodd and sending them to fight, and making flesh abominations by the Tzimisce). Our group of young vampires was being tested by the Sheriff to see if we were fit to join the Scourge, when the leader of the Scourge, a pissy Brujah, turns on the Prince and The Camerilla. Some of them join the Sabbat, others just fight everyone, and we had to decide what the hell we were going to do. Best role playing game I ever played.
Seriously, the world of Darkness mmo will be the shit.

Ordo Dracul for me. Sure the two religious covenants have crazy sorcery but can they require slightly less blood than they otherwise would and be a little less afraid of fire and sunlight? I think not.

I had a Malkavian who was Whip(co-Primogen) for a week or two since there were no other Malkavians in the city(Tampa). Then Neon died, and he became Primogen just as a whole pack of new Malks showed up.
He was killed a week later, diablerized by a Toreador.
That's part of the reason why I hate those guys. Then again, he had already made an enemy out of the cross-hating Giovanni for wearing one to Elysium, so his days were probably numbered anyway.
There can be interesting Toreadors, but they're few and far between. Most players I've met just drive the Anne Rice stereotype into the ground.
I just think you could do some really fun thing with the whole "lose it in the face of beauty" weakness by twisting your Toreador's concept of beauty
If he's a little wrong in the head and finds horrifying, frightening, disgusting or gory shit to be beauteous, he could become obsessed with doing more and more fucked-up things to his victims to go into greater and greater paroxysms of joy
could be fun, is all I'm saying

Purist things mostly. They added some things that were just plain taken out of the original for some reason, like Dominate being accessible to non-Ventrue for manipulating conversations. I think the good outweighs the bad, but you should get the 6.2 anyway. You can play it 'Basic' style to just fix the most known glitches(which will drive you nuts if you encounter them), then try the Plus with all the added stuff on a second run.

True Brujah are slightly different than Brujah proper, in source material terms. They're more scholarly and activist than the typical bruiser sort, and usually elders.

Yeah, I'm just saying Temporis is a wicked discipline to have. That and the Lasombra shadow manipulation one.

I would kill for a Sabbat expansion with Lasombra as a selectable clan.
except Tzmisce, who have the coolest discipline in the game.
Also Sarukun are you seriously not going to play this game because one section that's literally not longer than an hour is jumpy-scary? You're missing out on one of the greatest (albeit buggiest) rpgs of all time.

Very honor bound and driven.
You don't see much of them in Bloodlines.
(Doesn't mean they aren't there)
The 'Twilight' style vampires are Toreadors. Shoot on sight.
Sounds like a Nossie.
you could come up with some cool concepts for those guys
like, yeah, they do sound the most sissified, but I bet everyone plays Malkavians or Brujahs or Nosferatu
Gangrels in this game are some whupass melee motherfuckers.
Nah, she's a nagarajah. She has to eat people rather than drink blood.
Fingers crossed.
My group always played Hunter or Werewolf.
I had a Glasswalker that smashed through a brick wall and tore a vampire in half.

Any reason I should NOT get the Unofficial 6.whatever patch?

how do I install this.... if it's all wrapped up in steam? It wants to create an Activision folder, will that work?
Not sure, personally. The patch site says it's for retail versions, so you might be out of luck.
On the bright side, most of the common glitches can be fixed by saving and reloading, so just keep an older save handy at all times.
One of the newer mods allows for some crazy stuff:

also the best clan is Tzmisce
also yes Tzmisce are fucking badass.
Mori, we were singing your song at work the other day.
It was frikkin' weird.
Also I should play this game sometime, it was fun
Ocean House is undoubtedly one of the creepiest parts in a game
