The World of Darkness, is a beloved franchise is not a cookie cutter franchise like Call of Duty, or Battlefield to name a few, which many would just skip. The World of Darkness has millions of fans world wide who were fans before this was even a video game, and that is why when CCP bought white wolf and announced the MMO which was going to be a 3rd person game, the world went mad. People were offering CCP money during live events to help them develop the game. It is a fact that Paradox would exclude millions of gamers, due to this decision, be it because of preference or a physical disability. It's now an out of this world request, and by talking to actual developers who I worked with in the past, I was told that the only limitation would come with the game engine, and this engine should be very adaptable and uncomplicated since they will be allowing mods. This is not an out of this world request.
I cannot agree more with this statement.
If it was any other franchise, I would just shrug and go on with my life, feeling little to no regret about my condition and inability to play in FPP. But it's World of Darkness and Bloodlines 2, and it just breaks my heart that I may not be able to enjoy this game and explore another piece of this vast and wonderful universe. I'm sure, based on discussions here and in other places, that there are many people that share my point of view. I may be overly emotional about this, but WoD had a big inpact on my life and I really hope that there will be a chance for me, and other people suffering from various kinds of motion sickness, to play Bloodlines 2 and enjoy every minute of it. I really don't care it TPP is clunky as long as it's there. I loved the first game, even though motion animations (jumping!) in TPP were sometimes... Well, rather funny.
I hope there is still time to make changes in the game and implement TPP mode. But if not... I place my hopes in the modding community.
