For me it was just entering Santa Monica. Mecurio & the Voermans & Kilpatrick & Gimble. Thinbloods and Ocean House Hotel. The Asylum and Chiasm.
Ugh. I want to go play it again for the first time.

Paradox Interactive expects you to pay $90 for the Premium Edition of Bloodlines 2 to get all of the clans & other content that should be standard.
That is pathetic - by which I mean characteristically Paradox.
If I weren't already boycotting them (b/c Brian, b/c BDS), this would be the clincher.

If you're still taking this tack in Q3 2025, please know that you're arguing with Paradox's discord & marketing, and holdouts existing on pure cope. The rest of us moved on.

HSL's VTMB2 staff are LONG gone.

In Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2, if you (optionally and quite unnecessarily) slaughter everyone at Markvart's siege camp @ Suchdol, you get a special popup.
Gotta hand it to Warhorse -- they know their playerbase well.

Julian Nubaby came to live with us five years ago today.
He took a bit to warm up, but after that he rarely left our side.
In December, Jules was diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer. He's comfy but time is short.
I'm so glad he was able to spend this anniversary with us.
Love you, Jules.

How about we just play Bloodlines.
And if you don't want to do that, we could always play Memelines.

Luigi Mangione's attorney properly pointed out the theatrics & spectacle of (indicted) Mayor Eric Adams and NYPD perp walking Luigi Mangione on Friday.
How nice of NYPD to illustrate her point.
