different story paths?

[RugeR]

-Spoiler Warning?-

I've beaten the game as a Gangrel, gone about half way as a Brujah, and about half way (retrieve sarcophacus from mansion) as a Tremere. This may sound dumb, but all three stories are about the same?

When I was a Gangrel, I just followed LeCroix's tasks without question until the end when he wanted the key - i refused and pissed everyone off. As a Brujah, I was rude to LeCroix the whole time - just made him a jerk, but i still had to do his chores. I kissed the Anarchs butt, but they didn't give me anything (except 2 quests) more than the first time.

Now I'm playing as a Tremere, using persuasion and flattery everywhere possible - but it's still the same damn story. Isn't there supposed to be different story lines. Do other people besides LeCroix ask for the sarcophacus and key? Or is that the only story line to follow (his quests)? Is there a point where I don't have to follow him anymore and can do someone else's bidding?

I remember getting a downtown apartment the first time, but can't remember when LeCroix gave it to me... I thought it was before the sarcophacus retrieval. I've been nothing but nice to LeCroix, so where's my uptown apartment? I've heard that the Tremere Regent gives an apartment away (I assume to Tremeres only) - he hasn't offered jack either.

I guess my question is, does anyone know where/how the story line changes depending on your actions/answers/clan? I know that's vague, but i'm concerned more about the important changes to story - or are there no real changes.

The story changes when LaCroix puts the blood hunt on you. You then get into the taxi and that is where you get to decide the story ending. As for the downtown apt, LaCroix only gives it to you if you are nice to him and the Tremere regent only offers you the apt if you complete the gargoyle<sp> quest and don't tell Isaac who created the gargoyle. BTW when you get the Tremere apt you get a nice occult item that boost the power of your blood magic. It's in the trunk and the fridge has a few blood packs for you as well.

along the lines of this post ..

- how many endings are there.. so far i have seen 3 that aren't that different

- i) you open the box .. Jack and gang sit back and laugh at your greed ..

- ii) Lacroix opens the box .. Jack and gang sit back at laugh at Lacroixs' greed ..

- iii) Lacroix opens box .. Jack and gang sit back and laugh at Lacroixs' greed .. but because you have no ties with any sect (Camarilla .. Anarchs ..ect) a scene with your character walking away giving Nines the finger as he/she walk off into the sunset ..

- are there any more or is that it ?

edit :

Thanks Qark .. ill try some of the other clan alliances too

I completed the game as a Brujha and I sided with the Tremere primogen. They placed the box in permanent storage and that was it. End of story.

I sided with chinese and after they offed Lecroix, they threw the box with my malki tied to it in the ocean.
