Q: Do you consider Bloodlines to be more First-Person Shooter (FPS) than Role-Playing Game (RPG) or more RPG than FPS? My experience has been that RPG players generally dislike FPS games that are "twitch based". Will those who lack the precise hand-eye co-ordination of a 12 year old still be able to play Bloodlines or is the game more skewed towards those with FPS skills?

A: Bloodlines is definitely more RPG than FPS. We've included everything people expect from a great RPG: an in depth storyline, rich character development, different solutions to quests, etc.

Though we've done everything we can to level the playing field between twitch based gamers and those over the age of eighteen (by having your stats affect combat, etc), people who are good at twitched based games will have an advantage. I'd like to point out that I'm terrible at twitched based games, so I'm making sure the game is fun for the FPS challenged.
