Thanks for the tips all, it's probably the resolution thing. He tried checking drivers, that isn't it. I'll give him a call and tell him to try that.
I played through most recently as a Toreador. 10 Persuasion, 9 Seduction, lots of melee with 5 Celerity.
Holy shit.
Celerity is amazing. At rank 5 you can actually see bullets in the air and step around them. The only annoying part is that you still feed at normal speed which, from Celerity perspective, is very slow. Pain in the butt if you're stacking it a bunch of times (which I always did- grab a human to feed, pop Celerity 5 times, drain back to full blood).
Also pretty nice having a blood doll in every city.
What's also fun is to take the little character generation quiz at the beginning and answer the questions for yourself, see what clan you'd end up in. I am, to my surprise and enjoyment, a Gangrel. I thought I'd be a Nosferatu or Malkavian, but I guess my loner tendencies lean me more toward being a badass with fucking claws.
I perfectly called the two friends I had take the quiz- the one playing it is a Brujah, his fiance is a Toreador.

My favorite is still the ventrue. Domination in dialogues and upgrade it for combat. Max out Fortitude and Firearms + Perception, we're all set for combat. Just invest 2 points in Finances to keep the blood pack supply topped up at discount rates.

You guys are making me want to reinstall and replay this game. I think after I finish the Witcher (finally) I just might do that.

I hated the combat system, here's a quick fix: * http://www.radgametools.com/bnkdown.htm and download RADTools.exe * Open up Explorer to your install directory of The Witcher "C:\Program Files\The Witcher\Data\" * Then watch any of the cs_sex_*.bik * Uninstall game, and go play Bloodlines ;) |

The combat is hard to get used to. However, when you get more powerful it is awesome to be surrounded by enemies who you are dismembering while also lighting them on fire or shoving them into walls.

Just noticed Direct to Drive has it at $14.95 right now. If you never played it. Now's your chance.

It was $9.99 on steam a while ago. I think it's still cheap. Eh, $19.99.
Still would rather get it on Steam than D2D.

In Vista 64, Bloodlines reports less than 15MB of memory available. Does not work. Sigh.
Run it in compatibility mode, SP2.
