Vampire: Bloodlines Interview

GameAxis has published a Q&A with Troika's Leonard Boyarsky about Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines, although it looks like the questions were asked before the game was released. Not a bad thing, as we still get some of Leon's personal opinions on the game's development:
Q: To what degree will combat resemble pen and paper World of Darkness?

A: Since combat in the P&P version is turn based and ours is real time, our combat resembles it in spirit only. Don't get me wrong, Bloodlines definitely feels like it takes place in the World of Darkness and encapsulates the spirit of the P&P Vampire game, though we've made some decisions that take advantage of what makes combat in computer games fun to play.
