Everything als goin by the way as you playing the game, you need to decide if you wanna go combat or stealth or charismatic, etc.
Cant realy give you much tipps, this game isnt super complicated.
How viable is it to make a charismatic type character with very little combat skills on a first play through, or just in general? Like is there enough charismatic solutions in the game to justify making a character like that?
Also is there any big differences in game ineractions between having a male or female character?
Second, I would avoid a Malkavian playthrough your first time as they have completely unique dialogue since they're crazy and some of that dialogue does contain story spoilers. I DO however recommend them as a second or third playthrough Clan. They're very fun to play.
Third, don't bother with the Intimidation skill unless you're playing as a Nosferatu. You can accomplish everything better with Persuasion, or certain Disciplines(vampire powers) depending on what Clan you're playing. I also wouldn't bother with Inspection. When it comes to combat stats, look at what each level of your Disciplines can do and choose to go primarily Firearms or Melee or Brawl. Do not try to double up(unless it's for Brawl since you can use that for combat feeding) because there is a finite amount of XP in the game.
Make sure you scour every hub zone/city you're in for side quests BEFORE doing the main story quests as certain side quests will become uncompleteable or unobtainable if you move the story along too far.
Skills you'll want to focus on, since there are combat mandatory sections of the game are Firearms, Melee, or Brawl as I mentioned above. Persuasion, a little Seduction for the blood dolls, Research when you have some spare XP, your Disciplines(likely only going to pick two of them to invest in heavily), and maybe if you feel like it, things like Haggling. However, you WILL need Lockpicking and Hacking quite a bit, so make sure to pay attention to those.
As for differences between male and female characters, female PCs have a much easier time getting blood dolls and get more Seduction useage than males do. I've also never liked the male models in VtMB as I find they walk/run funny and it bothers me.
Good to know not to go with guns though, i probably would have.
So if i go melee then just doing 1 rank of brawling i should be all fine for combat feeding then, without having to invest too much? Or if that's the case should i just do primarily brawling and just ignore melee altogether?
Thanks for the help guys, answered a lot of the questions i was wondering about. Enough so that i wont have to restart a character 3 times to get my bearings.
