So I'm playing VtMB for the first time and I'm at this part. What am I in for? Is it a scary haunted house or Scooby Doo tier?
>>334557049
It's haunted. Scooby Doo comes later.
Don't ask. Just go. Make sure to play in first person.
>>334557323
I can't do scary stuff though. I'm a pussy.
Also why would you play not in first person?
It's spooky
Don't forget to read the newspaper and journals
>>334557403
>I can't do scary stuff though. I'm a pussy.
It's only one level. The rest of the game isn't like that.
Man up, you pussy.
>>334557403
I played it for the first time a couple days ago and it disappoints in the spook department, it's some big time scooby doo shit
I made a thread the other day and used the same image kek
So I want to play this game. What mod(s) do I need for a first playthrough?
>>334557403
fag
>>334558338
just the community patch
>>334558545
What does it do? Just bugfixes?
>>334558827
Yep, lots of gamebreaking bugs in the regular game, I think it also adds back in some content that was finished but not put into the game or something.
Be careful
Seriously, fuck that movement key locking up bug in that part
>hey guys I'm in the middle of playing a game, I guess I'll just stop to ask an imageboard what this area has in store for me instead of FUCKING DOING IT MYSELF
>>334560239
I stopped because I remember hearing it's scary. Still haven't started it yet.
>>334560239
It's THAT part. He gets a pass.
>>334561214
What does that mean? No really. What?
>>334561382
All good horror requires heavy and effective atmosphere, this takes priority over the look of the monster or the execution of the plot, just like how late at night you can be spooked by a fucking bedsheet swaying in the breeze.
One of the greatest most atmospheric games of all time is Vampire: The Masquerade. This is the level where you go from the monster haunting the night to the monster haunted, it's executed about as well as you can expect.
You gun get spooked
A word of advice, when you first enter the house, don't look immediately right.
>>334562478
I never looked immediately right. What happens?
>>334562627boot it up and find out ;)
>>334562478
That's what I'm fucking saying. Why spoil yourself for something like that? Seriously OP should just fuck off back to the game
>>334561049
>I stopped because I remember hearing it's scary.
>I remember hearing it's scary.
>it's scary.
>haven't started it yet.
>>334557403
>"I'm a pussy."
Why are you playing a HORROR GAME in the first place then?
>>334557049
don't be a pussy. i was a pussy but i got over it eventually.
also make sure to wait in the elevator because there is an easter egg.

It's not that bad. It's mostly reliant on the atmosphere rather than jumpscares. Just use third person.
And believe me, I'm the biggest pussy when it comes to scary games. I had to invite a bro over in order to play through this level.
>>334557403
>I can't do scary stuff though. I'm a pussy.
Every time.
what's wrong with this board?
>>334563617
Unused downtown is the best for sure
sounds a hell of a lot like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQYsGWh_vpE
Love the ambient tracks in this game though
>>334557403
Most of the stuff is audio Turn off the sound and play some music in the background.
Suggestions include:
(Scooby Doo)

Anon, post some more. This shit is jamming.
>>334557049
>asking for an expectations summary before experiencing it first-hand, robbing yourself of element of surprise
ok, the lights will flicker, some Havoc physics fun should expect you around the corner, a dodgy washing machine, a ghost, a bit of screaming, and a nice battle-remix of the main creepy hotel ambient theme
Fuck it, just watch a walkthrough on youtube

As far as the topic goes.

I don't know where this would have been used. It sounds too peaceful. I have heard rumors that it might have been another hub and in one of the mods it is used for the library
Strangely enough it sounds more like either an ending song or maybe something played during a dream of hallucination, or some kind of groovy drug trip.
It's the latter. When you figure out what damages you and what not, it boils down to a hazard course.
>>334557403
It's not the LEAST bit spooky. It's way too on the nose.
>>334567364
>Strangely enough it sounds more like either an ending song or maybe something played during a dream of hallucination, or some kind of groovy drug trip.
this song just steals too much of the show to be just an ambient OST, so you're right - it would fit just fine the credits roll or, say, a piece of some cinematic cutscene (like that bit in Silent Hill 4 w/ the first victim of serial killer... i forgot all the names of those buggers)
>>334557323
It's scooby doo tier, for some reason its a meme around here to pretend that this is scary.
>>334568007
it got me, when i played it the first time when i was 17.
And I have watched the chestbursting scene when i was 8 (accidentally)
I just did this level a few hours ago
After a few minutes I was just tired of the ghost's bullshit and let the one crazy bitch throw the pendant in the ocean so she'll never be put to rest just to spite her
>>334557403
I'm a fucking pussy as wellI played the haunted house in bright day light with a friend next to me and music on, it still scared the complete shit out of me and I stopped playing VtMB afterwards
I'm trying to play this game but either it doesn't install at all or says that the launcher dlls couldn't be found.
I'm on Win 7 x64, I installed the game in the default directory and applied the 9.5beta patch. Would anyone be able to help me?
>>334568291
The haunted house isn't even that scary dude
The worst shit that happens is some invisible bitch throws a vase at you
>>334567364
off topic but got any 80s-90 horror movie bgm
Also, everybody post your fav vtmb bgm

what about shalebridge cradle in deadly shadows?
>>334568521
I know, I finished it
I just fucking hate scary shit
>>334568521
Well, yeah, when you know everything that's coming, it's not as scary. It's all about the tension when you don't know what's coming, though.
>you will never get to eat Friggen Chicken
>>334568921
CAUSE THAT'S SOME GOOD F*CKING CHICKEN
>>334568549
Honestly I wish I had more but, I'm mostly into just 80s stuff (even weird stuff like this). Horror isn't my genre so it's difficult for me to find horror/80s pop/synth. (though 80s synth/pop is my favorite)

For whatever reason it took me forever to find high quality versions of those.
