Vampire series

[edit]

Which company will continue the "Vampire" series now that Troika has gone?

No idea. As far as I know no other games were already in the works; and given that the old Vampire: The Masquerade line is finished now anyway, no doubt White Wolf are free to negotiate a new deal with whoever they like to develop games based on Vampire: The Requiem. -- Guybrush 03:46, 30 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

But wasnt Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines part of the Vampire: The Requiem series? I think in Bloodline's credits it says so.

Mentioning Vampire: The Masquerade and then Vampire: The Requiem in the same line is giving this page a certain irony. Its quite clearly using data from Masquerade, not Ruquiem, when in-game. CABAL 04:22, 2 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I think the uncredited user is inquiring whether the two are related. It has been even stated by a reviewer of Masq' on Amazon UK... _> MonstaPro:Talk 17:51, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Real reason for leaving Interplay

[edit]

Should a more accurate information replace current vague one? Recently Tim started sharing his memories on working on the Fallout 1 and 2 on youtube. Specifically video titled "Why I left Fallout 2" after about 12:56. And according to him the real reason he left Interplay was not because of "disagreement about the future team structure" but because he was burned out and Brian Fargo was unfair to him at a point when he was already exhausted from crunch and unhappy being roped into F2 development. This pushed him over the edge and he decided to leave while Leonid and Jason joined him. 2A00:1370:8178:1504:DD3B:B29C:551:E03F (talk) 18:01, 12 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
