+.Patches and modsWhile criticized on release for the number of bugs present in the game, it garnered enough praise from critics and fans alike to spawn a concerted community patching effort. Indeed in its retail release it was actually impossible to finish the game for some people. One patch was rush-released which allowed players to finish the game but left many other bugs and even things such as typos untouched. However, a succession of fan-made mods and patches have since been released even though Troika have since disbanded; few noticeable bugs are left and many features disabled by the developers have been finished and re-enabled.

Attribute and Ability scores are added together to form 'feats', which represent the dice pools for various attempted actions; for example, the Melee Combat feat is derived by adding the ratings of the Strength Attribute and Melee Ability. Feats are therefore rated between 1 and 10.Other traits (like and ) are largely eliminated, though the character does have a rating. Blood and Health are measured in similar ways to the traditional Storyteller system, though player characters may have a maximum of 15 blood points rather than 10 (the player's is not explicitly stated, but is assumed to be thirteenth).are simplified as well; characters may only access common vampire powers (like healing and physical augmentation) and their three clan Disciplines; out-of-clan Disciplines are not allowed.

Most are modified to make all powers useful during play; 's powers are based on the, for example, though they are all offensive powers rather than analytical.Much of the interaction is with mortal; as a result, many vampiric disciplines have been toned down to prevent the game from being too easy to complete.SoundtrackA number of songs were licensed for the game.
