By the way, I didn't have an "I'm a turtle!"-option so far

You need at least Dementation 3 to get the turtle option in this dialogue.

IIRC you can find him immediately after he leaves, if you go to Caladon, in the thieves' guild basement, you don't have to wait to complete other quests or anything.

Probably you can still do the quest, the investigation on the pier isn't really connected in any way to the rest of the quest, you don't get xp for it and the future leads you get on the serial killer are unrelated to the pier investigation as far as I can tell. Spoiler: just get the quest about ...

I think the phrenologist in Tarant has kept the skulls, you could go back and search him/pickpocket him.

Major spoilerish advice about this quest, read at you own risk:

Spoiler

Don't trust anyone with quest items when on this case.

Intelligence definitely gives you more useful responses, some quests you can solve the diplomatic way only with a high intelligence, because otherwise you will not be given the appropriate lines. Persuasion, as I understand it makes it easier for you to lie and be believed and that sort of thing ...

The pedestals on which you found each one of them match in shape the ones on which you have to place them; place each one on the pedestal of the same shape as the one you found it on.

Last time, playing as Ventrue, I managed to lure out the security guard from the first office by shooting the camera and destroying it; the guy fired through the glass window and broke it, then came out looking for me, but I hid under the stairwell. He remained outside the room, in the corridor ...

A good rule of thumb is never treat quest NPC's in a way you are not supposed to; I mean why feed on the guy, there are so many mortals all over the place where you can do that...

If you hit one accidentally, just reload, it is only common sense that if you continue the game from there it might be ...

Wow, thanks, I had never before actually noticed the fuse box, silly me!

I can see how it is possible to finish the Museum without killing any guards if you have high obfuscate (with 5 it is a walk in the park) and/or a discipline that incapacitates people temporarily, like Dementation, Dominate or Animalism, but how can you do it with a Brujah or a Toreador? The part ...

It might be yet another random bug from the original; I remember reading in an old walkthrough, when the 2.3 patch was still current apparently, that sometimes "the prince has memory loss" and would give you quests you have already completed.

Smiling Jack and the Cabbie (I staunchly refuse to accept he is Caine because I am a such a P&P fanboi) set the whole thing up; they could have been the only ones to know what was inside the A.S. so as to tell you in the final email: " don't open it ". Now Jack really, honestly, I swear ...

In retrospect, I want to apoligize. I obviously don't agree with the Humanity point issue, but I also just realized that in stating my point of view I've come dangerously close several times to accusing you of not playing the game properly. :o

For me to dictate to anyone how they're supposed ...

Since you like to use Jack as a paragon of how Humanity is supposed to work in the game, even he says in the intro that self-preservation is a vital part of keeping your Humanity intact. There is your reason why you can return fire against criminals without tossing your humanity score in the ...

It's possible that Jack is an antideluvian. But that is just wild guesses from my side.

Smiling Jack is just a 10th generation Brujah, about 400 years old. In the World of Darkness universe (at least the way it used to be...) an antediluvian is not some guy you could mistake for a bum; if you ...

Wow, how do you figure that Venus is a criminal?

Sure, she solicits you for what is pretty much a contracted hit, but other than that she's pretty much a club owner trying to run a business while being extorted by the Russian mafia.

I'd like to think that no reasonable person would go to ...

Applying too much human morality? I wouldn't say so, not more than White Wolf intended for the P&P. Being a hardened gangster (because that's what the player ends up to be pretty much), that is accepting death contracts (Venus is not a damsel in distress, she is a criminal and she gives you a cut ...

And what about the humanity staying too high? Well, it was kinda easy for me to keep it low, no efforce. But here's the thing that is common to every RPG, if you want to be badass be prepaired to lose lots of experience points along with good artifacts that could be obtained thanks to being Mr ...

Long shot here, but last time my game was lagging that bad, it turned out that I hadn't defragmented my hard drive (which was almost full as well) for quite some time; you might have a similar problem. After that it played quite smoothly (it never runs too smooth on my system anyway, but nowhere ...

I've kept on reading threads since a while ( insomnia caused by a stress because of incoming serious exams, now it's 2:00 in Poland ) and here I've found funny thing.
If you say so than why Malkav's pet ain't insane? No crazy screams or histeric laughs?
Dammit, if only Troika had worked a bit ...
