Review Detail of veinglory in Vampire: the Masquerade - Nirvana

I played VtM... well, a few decades ago if I am honest. So I am familair with the setting without being an up-to-date fan. This story starts perhaps overly conventionally. The vampire and shrink thing is very well done yet. It quickly becomes a story of Leona being thrust into the vampire world and having to survive and figure out what it going on. Plenty of action, but there is something about Leona that doesn't grab me. She seems to adapt very quickly as if she didn't find out about the entire vampire culture only a few days ago. So yes she is told things but seems to get the whole underlying 'magic is real' and 'how vampire clans work' thing just instantly. On one hand, I am curious why wise olf Garret did something that shouldn't have worked--was he behind everything or just dumb? On the other hand, there's a lot of characters and POVs and I would rather just see what Leona knows as she learns it rather than keep track of all this. The writing has some pervasive grammar issues but they are fairly minor,

Shrink thing XDDDDD That's one way to call it, glad I found another one in the nerdy vampire group(nope), wonder which one you played though, Bloodline or Redemption? Like it stated it's a fanfic so I didn't really deviate much from the original work at the beginning, will seem bit boring to people who are already familiar with it from the start. The reason I started this work is sorta like...well I love the original game of course, but it's kind of too "cult-classic" that for a lover of classic, high-quality popular works like me, and I feel very pitied about this very beautifully built series becomes "niche product" while other bxllshits wearing vampire skin shamelessly takes up the market, so this work is like an effort to rewrite the game to make it more easier appreciated by the majority and more sorta fit in my "aesthetics", so you will find lots of original stuff in characters, plots and even settings afterwards. As for you confusion about Leona and Garrett...well, as the story goes and their past being revealed, you will see XDDDD
