The Forgotten City vs Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2: which should you buy?
For Filipino gamers, The Forgotten City is the safer and more accessible choice. Released in 2021, it has a proven track record with a community rating of 4.2/5, while Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines 2 (released October 2025) has a lower 3.8/5 and its system requirements are still TBC, making it risky if your PC is older. The Forgotten City is an action-adventure RPG with a short 7-hour playtime, ideal for those who want a concise experience with multiple endings. It runs on modest hardware (minimum GTX 570) and is available on all major platforms (PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch), giving you flexibility. Bloodlines 2 promises a deep RPG with a massive 329-hour playtime (data may be erroneous) but is only on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox, lacking Nintendo. No price data is provided, but The Forgotten City is likely cheaper as an older indie title. If you want a polished, shorter story with broad platform support and clear specs, choose The Forgotten City. If you prefer a long action-RPG with vampire themes and can wait for confirmed requirements and possible patches, Bloodlines 2 may be worth considering.
