Playing as the nosferatu.
So im about to start this game up, yet again and this time thought i'd try making my way through it as one of the "sewer rats" however, before i do that i thought i'd ask, other than 0 seduction, what mechanical/gameplay ramifications are there to be a nosferatu, for example are there any quests that will be locked for me? Thanks in advance.

you get bonuses from eating rats.. but everyone laughs at you for it..
There are some quests that're locked for you. Like you can't do the Persuasion based side quests inside the Giovanni mansion. I think some others are impossible as well and you can never get any blood dolls. Also, a lot of NPCs react negatively towards you due to your extreme fugly.

Well anyone who mocks my dietary habits gets a fistful of potence enhanced punch, and the point of the playthrough is kinda to deal with being fug since my last run as a tremere basically ended up more of a charmer than my toreador playthrough (not sure how i ♥♥♥♥♥♥ that up >_>)

For you, it will most likely be just like real life.

If you've got the Unofficial Patch installed, make sure you take care exitng the "Lucky Star" motel, Lotta people ready to see you break the Masquerade.

You actually can walk around a bit on the streets as long as you don't get too close to anyone...stealth or obfuscate help too.

I always wondered:

Why doesn't talking to people in buildings as a Nos break the masquerade? (answer: because it would be impossible to play as a Nos with the game as coded and they weren't about to create an entirely separate track for one clan)

Why can't I get access to the spell your sire uses to look normal so she can seduce you?

Why can't Nos just put on a long coat and a wear a hat/wig? It might not work up close but from 10 feet away it would be fine.

from memoery you get like a little radar as nos and it lets you know when you get too close too people.. i never liked the class all that sewer diving if you can manage it and survive eatting of rats.. props too you..
