It would be less enjoyable, because the combat is so clunky you'd get a masquerade violation every time you stepped outside.

What? He was a supremacist douche who was nasty to all the companions I liked. When he called my main man Hancock a freak and told Curie to donate herself for study during a swap, I knew I was gonna ventilate him if the chance ever came up. And then it did.

Why play game yourself, when you can have your character go frenzy from damage they've taken, and proceed to beat enemy's ass on autopilot for you.

The only real difference that occurs in the world if you do the Institute ending is that Mk1 and Mk2 synths are openly walking around in most of the settlements. You can't interact with them or anything, so it's just a cosmetic change.

Question (assuming this is about VTM:B) are you playing with the fan patch that fixes some things and also re-adds some cut content?

VTMB transitioning to second hub
In transition from Santa Monica to Downtown, that was probably meant as dramatic kidnapping scene, but moment that Sabbat vampire bonked me with baseball bat, I started laughing.

How come whenever you run into a bug in a game the only people who respond in the help forums are dibshits who seems to live a life filled with fucking miracles tells you everything is working fine for them. The game works perfectly for me. Well thanks! I was really worried about your fucking gameplay experience! Delvin let me end these awful radiant quests!

I'm not bitter, why'd you ask?

No wierdly. There's a prettty common bug where Delvin won't give you the Special Jobs after you finish the number of Radiant quests you need https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/19 ... n/74633886

Spent a good hour trying to fix it before it apparently worked itself out as far as I can tell.

Oh well at least it's fixed itself. I found that I had to use console commands fairly frequently to progress bugged quests to the next stage. It was the same with Fallout 3 and New Vegas, as well as Fallout 4. It made me glad I wasn't playing on console, as there wouldn't have been any way to debug the quests in that case.
