Pick this up for $5 on Steam yesterday - it's been on my backlog forever and I was happy to get it at such a good price. I know a little about the franchise: I know it's based on a LARP, I know people will tell me to start as a Malkavian, and I know that playthroughs are supposed to vary wildly depending on your chosen clan and build.
Reading the clan descriptions made that last point obvious. I was instantly attracted to the looks of the Nosferatu clan, and imagine their inability to walk freely among mortals is probably a huge disadvantage that I might not want to be saddled with on my first playthrough. I don't particularly want to start as a Malkavian, since if I like the game (and I think I will) they seem better suited to replays so you can see how much the dialogue has changed. I'm not sure I want to be told what to do here so much as hear other folks' impressions of how they started the game and the challenges they faced.
Mostly though the thread is to ask if there's anything I need to know before going in, and to please keep it as spoiler-free as possible. Any game breaking bugs? Missables? Points of no return? Thanks.
