Redemption and Bloodlines Question

[StockyBaldy]

Do these two games share their universes together or do they simply take place in their own seperate continuity? I couldn't find the answer to this question on google so I decided to ask here.

It's the same world setting so yes.

I know that they are both WoD games, I just don't know if they take place within their own continuity or if there is evidence they share some connection through the stories they tell. Sorry if I wasn't clear enough.

I never heard of anything connecting the two games, not even an easteregg...

Oh. Well, not that i know of, only the setting.
Besides, in redemption, the story also takes place in the modern world final nights i think.

But as far as the official things, no, nothing's connecting them officially.

I see, I imagined as such. An easter egg would be pretty cool but I guess it's simply not meant to be :/.

Thank you both for the answers, just wanted to make sure.

There is a character named Mercurio in Redemption. This not being a very common name, I assume the Bloodlines character is named in reference to him.

However, I would not recommend Redemption, if anyone is considering buying it. The gameplay is not very good. And, more importantly, neither is the writing. I mean, I kinda like that the story begins in the dark ages but does everyone have to speak King James Version English.

I noticed that same thing too. I agree I don't like Redemption that much, I played up until the fight with Mercurio funnily enough, and I could never kill him. The saving system was also pretty atrocious, but the 1.1 patch fixed that. I could only imagine how much more difficult it would be to play without the 1.1 save patch, dying at an important moment only having to reload from a save you made half an hour earlier.

the character christof appears in lore in the masquerade as does Beckett and nines (well at least I have heard he was in one of the by night books)

VampireTM Bloodlines is in the modern world as VTM Redemption takes place in about the 14th to 13th Centuries to an human knight that eventually becomes a vampire or Vampire Hunter.

Yes you should learn King James English it helps greatly to learn how people spoke back then and the flavor of special words they used. My ancestors lived at those times and up to the 16th Century in Britain. First of all Thee is a first person meaning "You", or it sometimes can mean "At" or "That" or "There". I raise my sword and strike Thee as I go to Thee Greenwood fleeing thy (those) other guardsmen!=I am raising my sword and would hit you and I dodge thee (them) to the woods avoiding the rest of the guardsmen! It is the same in our own English both American and Canadian. "We" can mean a collective we, or we, as in 2 people or more. Or a Noble WE as in a King or Queen....even Baron or Prince. Thou, means "You". Or a group the same as it does today with our language as Our Friends; Thou Art=You are. If your very interested in King James English, go to a used bookstore and get a book, "The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood" it contains all the King James English and all the insight between commoners and the royality up to Kings and Queens of England you can sink your fangs into.

Midnite Rule, ahhhh Mercurio.........you should know him well from WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, the Italian Guy that was Romeo's friend and was in the same Italian Family Clan he was. Mecurio was helping Romeo runaway with Juliette and later marry her.

Agreed, must be very strange for Christopher, living in the Kindred Modern Times, being an German Knight.
