Sex/Gender Bias in Game?

[thetammyjo]

Hello everyone.

I'm on my second character/attempt at this game.

This time a male Tremere who I have made more socially skilled. I'm noticing some differences in dialog because he's male but that was just setting the scene I thought.

Then I hit the "Italian Dinner" quest and try to do the Giovanni talking. It does not work at all... I am given no persuasion or seduction option even though both those mental feats are higher than they were with my female Tremere.

Anyone else have this problem?

TammyJo[/QUOTE]Hmm. I'm aware that there are some differences for gender, but that was not one of them. AFAIK for the conversations with the three persons that try to get into the inner circle you need 9 persuasion (or 8 for the stockbroker), whether you're male or female. And normally only seduction is gendersensitive (e.g. you can seduce Tommy Flayton when you're male, but not when you're female).
