MEETING VAMPIRE BOOMER - Let's Play: Coteries of New York #12

[@mrm7058]

Vampire Boomer? That would be a relative young vampire, actually.

[@Outstarwalker]

Wah, it's more an attitude than a date these days! :D

[@witar.]

@@Outstarwalker he is former sabbat ventrue turned anarch (looking to turn camarilla). No wonder he's grumpy.

[@araamahasla555]

@@witar. But he turned from Sabat because no one liked him because he was a dick in the first place.

[@witar.]

@@araamahasla555 he wasn't popular there cause of all the lasombra in high places. They don't like ventrue that much. And by sabbat standarts he's quite civil. Humane even.

[@araamahasla555]

@@witar. Nobody cares about clans when the actual profit of sorts is on the line, especially Sabat which values dedication above all and Lasombra which will sell their own mother for a penny if anyone to buy. Callihan was profitable (that's why he was embraced after all) but insufferable so the only way for him exist was to become "anarch" which is just an excuse to amass power outside of structured sects.

Outstar: YA (Young Adult) Vampire Novel.

[@hekatebleble4800]

Frank Parker no, it's now like the Queen said "Yay!Vampire novel!" ;P

[@VerticalBlank]

Yep YA was a "Young Adult" aka teen category even back when I was young. We didn't have any bull about sparkling back then though - don't see how that nonsense serves the Masquerade.

[@frankparker1191]

VerticalBlank: Twilight is seen as comedy by most Kindred that are aware of it, at least ones born before 1989. Softcore horror porn comedy for teens ands teens moms with bad taste in entertainment. So it fits in very well in the WoD indeed, except the WoD version is somehow worse. Tommy Wiseau plays Edward... Actually, I'm not sure that would make it worse exactly.

[@hekatebleble4800]

Frank Parker wait, srsly? ;D can you provide your source material, please?

[@margisama]

"Forget politics and play video games." Yup...that's my basic philosophy as a human XD If I became a WoD vampire...well, it would probably stay the same (though I'd save a lot more money on groceries), but I have to say I'd strive to be like Beckett (though hopefully getting into a lot less danger than he does); exploring the world and getting to see places I probably never would as a human. Callihan in addition to being racist is also a sexist. If you play as the Ventrue he gripes how things in America started going downhill as soon as women got the right to vote >_>; Also, looking forward to the next episode of Vein Pursuit and seeing if Della and Veronica have another battle XD

[@hekatebleble4800]

Margi Fisher Della gives me PTSD. I hope Veronica shows her who the boss is (ekhm, Venture!) She and Florian are my favourite :)

[@Outstarwalker]

oh dear do I have the treat for you in episode 4.... :D

[@hekatebleble4800]

Outstar yassssasssss *.* Slay, Queen...or Daddy!!

[@VerticalBlank]

If Veronica put Della *very* firmly back in her box I wouldn't exactly complain. There's being a stuck-up bitch, and there's failing to consider the needs of the group. Della *really* needs to get with the program.

[@margisama]

@@VerticalBlank I mean....I understand where her player is coming from with her seeming intention for the character; high humanity/friendly neighborhood vampire Toreador to serve as a foil for the more pragmatic, somewhat ruthless members of the Coterie. Still...you can be a 'nice' person as a vampire without throwing survival instincts out the window. It took me a bit to warm up to Della (especially in the first episode what with the "armed thugs are trying to kill you, let's jump on a rock in full view and tell them they don't have to hurt you" move >_>, ). So far Veronica strikes me as a good middle ground of the group. She's not an utter monster who kills people on a whim, but she's no-nonsense and practical "we have to do what we have to do to survive". Have to say my favorite is Camellia though...she gives me at least one laugh out loud moment per episode, and just the mental image of a vampire breaking into your hotel room to feed on you while you sleep, yet folding your clothes, tucking you in when they're done and even patting you on the head before leaving is just utter hilarious.

[@MrHacros]

If Mia gave you a phone, it makes no sense to leave you a note, so the character should have suspected.

[@karkosgiehex]

Bruce looks very much like the lead singer from Metalocalypse... I rather like your dour impressions of Agathon, by the way. Mages probably don't do well when they have to eat people to make their magic work, but that trip in his car with the little one was hilarious!

[@Velral]

The title should've been "indeed, elder". :D

[@R_FangZ]

I think I remember music playing a bit more often in the background back when I played the game, I don't remember it being so quiet. Maybe some tracks just don't play for you at certain points during the game? idk, it's kinda weird :\

[@thelarsen4590]

Aisling is pronounced 'ASH-ling'. I got it totally wrong myself and decided to look it up XD.

[@WardenDios]

Drinking blood just so that you can continue playing Snake night after night on a borrowed phone in a cafe...

[@jay15951]

This episode 12 wasnt in the playlist.

[@elarckangel]

Lovely Outstar at first and related to the previous episode and this one, very good Spanish, and I say it as a native speaker that I am. Secondly, I have a couple of questions that I would like to ask you: first, will you continue with Disco Elysium? Because I feel that having seen your gameplay anyone else will seem boring. And second, do you have any idea which other games will you bring us this year? Apart from the obvious with Bloodlines and Cyberpunk. Saludos!

[@Outstarwalker]

I will absolutely continue Disco as soon as I finish Coteries which I suspect should be soon :) As for the other games, I haven't decided yet, so I don't want to promise too much - but I can tell you for sure that I'm cooking something extra behind the scenes!

[@jay15951]

For some reason this episode wasn't in the playlist

[@eurelax1977]

Has anyone been able to get more info on who Bruce's master is? I've done a couple of playthroughs and so far Sam was the best I could do. Once guessed Samira and Mia was happy with that, no idea if that was right though!

[@araamahasla555]

It is Samira, she is assamite you can see at one of the camarilla gatherings.

[@VerticalBlank]

@@araamahasla555 Yep, confirmed on one of my runs.

[@darkseidomega2585]

Game it's bugged if you have high hunger the game makes you skip the Callihan encounter but the dialogues say you meet him already, just happened to me and I'm in my first playthrough.

[@lunaruno9920]

im still suprise callihan is a ventrue

[@BrotherMag]

He's such a dick lol

[@witar.]

You can't actually stand up to Callihan in this game. But at least you gonna have some payback at Vincent later on. Ending is gonna be quite dissapointing though.

[@hekatebleble4800]

Alexey Volkov, I'd edit my comment, if I were you Alexey ;) That reference about the future thing is clearly on a spoiler territory. Sorry, I'm not normally one to play the spoiler police, but I know Outstar really doesn't like them.

[@witar.]

@@hekatebleble4800 i kinda avoided major spoilers, but yeah i apologize if i have ruined someone's playthrough ;)

[@DragonGunzDorian]

Was going to say myself. To spoilery.

[@Outstarwalker]

aaand I got spoiled :(

[@DragonGunzDorian]

:(

[@dom9407]

I've never been first before what do I say?... Y E E T

[@hekatebleble4800]

dom madden every time someone says that it makes me rotf because of the ancient dinosaur "Yee" meme xd
