Once upon a time 2D rpgs like Baldur's Gate and Planescape: Torment ruled the world, then darkness fell over PC Gamers and the golden age of western rpgs seemed lost. From the ashes of such games came Vampire: The Masquerade - Redemption, sporting not only an awesome 3d engine that makes the graphics still nice and crisp to see (it uses a revamped version of Quake 2 engine) but fresh gameplay mechanics in part borrowed from the homonym tabletop rpg in part brand new.
Redemption is a sort of gap filling game from modern rpgs such Neverwinter Nights 2 Dragon Age and old glories as Icewind Dale.
You controls a party of vampires ables to suck blood, killing the enemy and healing themselves at the same time, this gimmick opens to you very cool combat tactics and there's no need to do a stupid camp to refill your HP in the middle of a dungeon.
It's wicked plot and fascinating atmosphere will drive you along a lot of dark and well designed dungeons, from the medieval age to our present days
ear future.
An epic game about a lost love, a lost soul, and a whole lot of angry vampire clans!
