Make a copy of the game shortcut.
Rightclick and edit it.

then add -console to the command line.
In my case it's "D:\Games\Vampire - Bloodlines\vampire.exe" -console

The key to success is that you put the -console bit outside of the quote brackets.

Also if you are using non-english keyboard it is good to put the console on a different key then the default ~.
Open your config.cfg file found in one of the vampire folders and change/add the line:

bind "X" "toggleconsole" (where X is your preferred key)

i think it's HOW you're closing it.
you must hit ESC first
