The hero is a policeman, talented and devoted to duty. But there is a clarification - this is a dead policeman, killed because of his work, but he did not leave the world, he turned into a ghost and did not lose his passion for investigations. A hero can do many things in our world, but not all.

✓ Fits the third-person Action RPGs cluster, with deep RPG systems, action RPG combat and adventure storytelling

≠ Its own twist: punishing difficulty, fantasy world and skill tree progression, while skipping fighting mechanics

An RPG built on a real dilemma: every citizen you drain gives large experience but permanently degrades their district, and the game is genuinely playable without killing anyone. The London setting and dialogue are strong. Combat is stiff and repetitive, and pacifist runs leave you badly underlevelled for bosses the game does not scale down.

On reception: its Steam reviews are mostly positive, against very positive for Batman: Arkham Knight.

Released 3 years after Batman: Arkham Knight.

Vampire: The Masquerade – Bloodlines is a story-driven action-RPG based on table-top role-playing game Vampire: The Masquerade, the part of the World of Darkness franchise. The game is setting a gothic urban fantasy where vampires, werewolves, and other supernatural beings live secretly by humans.

It predates Batman: Arkham Knight by 11 years, with what that implies technically.
