My gamer friend had never heard of ‘Vampire: The Masquerade-Bloodlines’ (VtMB from here onwards) before and I was borderline ashamed with him, as he has a great knowledge of games. One of the games I was looking forward to was ‘ Vampire: The Masquerade-Bloodlines 2’. A friend and I were watching the various 2019 E3 panels online and we discussed in great detail about what games we were looking forward to in the coming year(s).
