    Uh.... where do i Nominate this man for academy awards? Seriously White Wolf... you guys are genius for putting this man infront of a camera, if you make a movie or a tv show, put him on the stage because Oooo.. hes got it XD heck since i recently started Storytelling iv tried to hone my skills to be like him and i have no shame in that as obviously hes good enough to put on Camera.
    Now i must ask the Gentleman, this advisor to Prince Mithras, what will you do next, because as i see it, you better then any other vampire would best honor Mithras's memory by leading the Camarilla of London and sitting as the cities prince and continue his legacy so as i asked already, what will you do next?

    I'd say a vampire is little more than a human persona amplified to a supernatural state. Frailties, nature, instincts and inherent characteristics are thus magnified.

    • @Dream0Asylum
      @Dream0Asylum 6 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      ['d say a vampire is little more than a human persona amplified ...]
      I'd say a vampire is a little less. The biology that drives a living human is dead and sedentary within the walking corpse that is a vampire. There's a reason vampire auras are typically portrayed as dim reflections relative to that of mortals. Equally so, there's a reason the vampires in the artwork are overwhelmingly caught in snapshots of excess - it is because after some time of undeath, only excess can even dimly rouse them.
      There's no adrenaline that courses through a vampire - there is only vitae.
      There's no melatonin that tells a vampire when to sleep - there is only vitae.
      There's no hormones that overwhelm a vampire's senses when there's love in the air - there is only vitae.
      There's no churning of the stomach when sustenance is needed - there is only vitae.
      When a vampire "feels" something it is not likely to be a legitimate emotion or physiological sensation, but only something like a memory. And the longer one has been a vampire, the more distant and dimmer those memories are.
      From the time a vampire is made, it is acting out a human simulation. Humanity just tells you how accurate that performance remains and as time slips on so does one's humanity inevitably slip down.

    I am so glad that you are co-writing for Vampire... Makes me hope for an excellently written V5. A few weeks ago I re-read Wraith and noticed how awesomely written it is. So different from all the other rulebooks nowadays and was reminded of what was so fantastic about the WoD stuff back then (never really noticed V20 actually.) So I am, of course, hoping to find the same artistic and immersive writing style in V5, which is hoping, not expecting because, well, it's got to be modern... I guess I will see tomorrow, but the way these videos are presented, also by someone who actually writes for White Wolf, raised my expectations again. I can imagine the pressure. Do not disappoint me, mortals.

This was when graphics cards were too expensive due to Crypto Miners buying them up in bulk. Thankfully, prices are dropping now, so you could probably get an even better PC than mine.

So much so that I moved on from what was once my favorite game to other games. But now...I at least have to get the book. You've peaked my interest. I hope they sponsor you. You deserve it.

    I do believe the quality of this series is rising with each episode. A coincidence? Mabye it is manipulation by elders to increase the urges to pre-order V5, while I believe it to be my choice? The Path of Technomancy? No it's not paranoia...one can never be too careful these nights.

    The Sabbat don't control their beasts, they become one with them. Some come closer than others( Path of the Beast, Path of Metamorphosis ), some find a more controlled path ( Path of Bones, Path of Power ), but make no mistake to loose humanity is to become a monster.

    Okay but here's a question that V5 has raised in my head:
    Can Kindred "activate" those dead organs? It seems so given that V5 makes reference to vampiric sexuality which at the very least requires some bodily function.
    Requiem gave us the answer with Flush of Life as a vitae consuming practice that allowed Kindred to take on "living" traits temporarily.
    Or is this just like the other feature of kindred? Like their movement and thought powered by whatever supernatural effect keeps them in a liminal state between living and dead.

    • @Vevvev8
      @Vevvev8 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know I'm 3 years late, but yes. Blush of Life exists in v5 and it's activated by rousing the blood. Let's you appear peachy, have a heart beat, fool certain scanners, and appear alive during medical checks. Also need it for certain activities where you need an organ functioning like lungs for giving yourself buoyancy by filling them with air or when you're sleeping with someone.

    The night before I made my first Malkavian Mandala, of my own, from the blood left from my mother..
    You should see it... It isn't as sublime as the original, but it is glorious! Red formations that make my head feel... better. And the Painting likes it too, when I copied it.. and the painting,... "The Malkavian Madala", it partake of the vitae I fed it, changing in a form of glee and joy. A Nirvana of nothing for me. Better. . So I think I'll do more practice work tonight.. Some more meditation of the mandala...

    Vampires might be proof that the philosophy of Dualism has some merit. If the mind is somehow a projection from another universe and the brain an antenna of sorts; then maybe being a vampire is somehow deranging this connection.
