Tannath: True. But at least now the two companies involved have stuff here, so I feel a little tiny bit more optimistic than before.
I don't, unless Activision decides to sell the game's rights to Paradox.

Activision + Value source engine, I'd say the possibilities for Bloodlines on GOG are very small. Good news though.

Does that mean that we'll have a Masquerade expansion pack for Cities Skylines?

It definitely should.

I did say little tiny bit. =)
We'll see what happens, can't be worse than the way it was before.

Here it is from White Wolf:
http://www.white-wolf.com

Not sure how I feel about this. When White Wolf was bought by CCP it went from releasing books each month to releasing 4 a year. I'm not sure a video game company has any business owning a pen and paper rpg company - but I guess we'll see.

And I'm still waiting for Exalted 3rd edition...

It would be nice if they could bring Bloodlines. I also wouldn't mind if for example Obsidian would do a new Vampire game.

I think it's the other way around. Activision has licensing rights and WW owned those (CCP). Now it's up to Paradox to relicense it. They probably will since it's an active license, so the situation there doesn't change much, but that's the general gist of how that works a lot of the time.

I don't care about bloodlines as much as I care if paradox lowers the prices of white wolfs digital books the prices are/were damned rediculous. Even WOTC sells pdf's cheaper than print books, sure as hell not white wolf.

I'm not interested at all in their MMO plans but the great news is that we will finally see Bloodlines on GOG.com, I'd say probably this Cristmas/NYeve.
Those CCP guys were some of the greatest imbeciles I've ever seen, sitting on a goldmine like that and doing nothing ... bloody fools.

Uh, what? That's not what I meant, at all. Activision's Vampire license is still active (hence why Redemption is still sold here and why Bloodlines is still sold on Steam). The thing is, Activision is the publisher of both games and they have the final say as to what stores they will be sold. Since they don't seem to be particularly interested in GOG anymore (it's been 3 years since their last release here), the only way that chances for a release here would be improved is either if Activision decided to start publishing new games here, or if Paradox bought the rights to the game and start publishing it themselves.

Wait those pricks sent cease and decide orders to people working on free material for old material from source material that they owned but didn't even use...?

Yep...Check this

https://www.vg247.com/2014/11/23/vampire-the-masquerade-bloodlines-project-vaulderie-shut-down-ccp/

so yeah...


By the way, a question that popped to my mind.
What does "Paradox acquired all the MMO assets from CCP"? Does that mean they got all the tools (kit and engine, data etc ) that CCP created for the World of Darkness MMO? Or is it something else?
