Antitribu is alive!

I just found this in my YouTube subscriptions:

They are not only alive, they have made a new area it seems.

Too bad you can't download shit yet

Ye the mod isn't coming out in a while yet.
But sure, Mc.9 is still working on it, I've got my eyes on their forums

It's been TBD state on ModDB since before the Flood. And when it changes to Released..., this will be the date of Gehenna.

By the time they finish, only 12-15 people all over the world will still be playing VtM.
At least Malkav and Zero have the good sense to release new content as it is finished, instead of holding back for 30 years

What is 30 years to a Cainite?

Can be quite a lot if the Four Horsemen decide to ride out in 5 years...

I always disliked this "hurr durr time is nothing for Cainites". Bullshit. 30 years for a Methuselah in torpor might not mean anything, but for a two-digit old vampire is still a lot. It's thirty years of hunger and feeding, thirty years trying to survive jihad and politics while at the same time upholding the masquerade and trying to figure out what the fuck are you. In most campaings, we hardly have a vampire that reaches above 400 years of age. I could write an entire essay on the subject, but I won't do so right now because I have a kung fu movie that needs viewing.

True enough. For the Bloodlines PC all vampire existence almost ended within one night. And 30 years of night shifts in a morgue could be quite long. Especially when you are not a Giovanni.

It is an interesting question in itself: how would a Cainite earn money to pay bills?

There are quite a few possibilities. First you can ghoul someone and "live" on their earnings.
Then you can get a night shift only job, preferably one where you also frequently meet single customers (makes the hunting easier). Won't work for Nossies or Samedi of course.
And these days, you should also be able to find a job where you work at home and send the results per internet.
Or you become a good hacker or burglar...
Then there is telephone sex or website porn (imagine a Nossie  )

All in all lots of opportunities these days with the internet and many shops open 24/7...

If I am an immortal creature of the night who can only move and act between dusk and dawn, I sure as hell wouldn't get a night shift job.

See that you get embraced by a Lasombra, and then learn Obfuscate. You wil become the most successful burglar ever. Nobody sees you and there is no evidence on any surveillance tape...

The Lasombra would look down on a Keeper into petty crime IMO.
All jobs on night shift would be hard too. What if your shift ends 10 minutes after dawn in the summer?
Working from home would be OK.
Or jobs like contract killer. Imagine the headline: Known politician mangled to death by a feral dog! Whomever this sod annoyed would be happy and one Gangrel too. Funniest of all there would be no investigation to speak of, because, well... How to question a dog, no?

Best of all would be running a company through proxies, but that would require a lot of money to start with. I.e. a very fat Boon to some geriatric douchebag extraordinarie. And Sire here would be the least sorry option. Ah, you would have been a Ventrue, Lasombra, Giovanni, Toreador, Setite or something else posh to pull it off.

What movie?

I lied. It so happened that when I got my popcorn ready, I started surfing on youtube and ended up watching a 2-hour long debate between Christopher Hitchens and some random dumbfuck (Willaim Lane Craig, I believe).

If you're looking for a good kung fu movie though, I'd recommend Dragon (Wu Xia) and True Legend, both made in this year of 2013. There's also the last Ip Man movie, Ip Man The Final Fight, not to be confunsed with another Ip Man movie 'The Grandmaster'. Do not watch 'The Grandmaster' unless you're really into the genre, because it is kinda convoluted and boring (in the last half, Ip Man barely appears at all, playing a lesser role than a secondary character).

EDIT- All those I've mentioned are from 2013. If you haven't watched yet the first three Ip Man movies, or Fist of Legend, or any Bruce Lee movie, then you might want to start with them.

Uh, seems I've seen even Swordsmen (2011 ).
I don't remember any good kungfu movies right now. I'm trying to get my hands on "Shogun trilogy" from the 80's... And I really liked Harakiri (1962). What about Kurosawa?

Kurosawa certainly isn't kung fu. But if you like epich sword fights and historical drama he's your man.
His best known work probably is the seven Samurai, the original story all that glorious seven junk was based of.
Then there is Kagemusha, the shadow of the warrior, good story and a grreat epical final battle. Then there are his films based on shakepeare dramas: Ran, based on King Lear, and one based on the Macbeth story. Sorry I don't have the english or original japanese title available, the german translation is "Das Schloss im Spinnwebwald".

Well, he is a grandmaster of epic drama and battles, but certainly not Fu.
As you can see I'm a fan. And even if it's not the generally best known movie, I think, Kagemusha is a must, just as "Soylent Green" in the SF genre.

Yeah, not Kung Fu for sure.

As for Kurosawa, Ran is my favorite. Even it is a very sad movie.

Well, my favorite is Kagemusha, with RAN a close second...

- 

Haven't seen them all. But Three Villains... rocked.
How about Takeshi Kitano? A bit different cup.

Now on 97%!

The English title is Throne of Blood. I'm a fan as well.

Fitting, and as usual ways better than the junk the german editors come up with. 

One of the worst I've seen is "Einmal Rupert und zurück" for "Mostly Harmless".

I was actually addressed by one of the master minds behind this MOD. Here's what he said.. "its basically done we are now under heavy testing. I would like to point out the entirety of the mod only 15% of it consists of new clans. the rest are quests and the 113 new NPC models along side new maps never before seen, and advance library and 4 new outdoor maps and a new hub. Something that I am sure will intrigue some of the community members. We didnt sit on our backs for 3 years, we worked through most of it and accomplished the impossible. Though there is no point in talking about it you will hopefully see it all soon in full splendor. and hopefully you will like it by then."

They have also said that the launch version will be only the first step and that things like voice acting etc will be added in future versions.
