Damn straight! I havent played in weeks! Why? I beat the game! Didnt feel the need to continue because unlike Redemption, there were no mods or online presence!
Either give out the SDK for the community or save it for the next instalment. but whatever happens, its the developers choice and we will respect that.
An SDK release would do great things for the game. Custom content brings new sales - lokk at Half-Life 1 and Unreal Tournament - both with massive mod communities. VtM: Bloodlines has a lot off potential for great custom content scenarios - something that should not be left to pass buy.
A mode that allows players to take the game and make it their own, something that they can reinvent and use witht themselves and their friends, would be something fitting with White Wolf's entire basis as a Storyteller driven game company.
We shouldn't have to petition for a necessity. Sierra did amazingly well with the Half-Life franchise because they were aware that the life of a game was in it's community. The no name company that put out City Of Heroes would have been crushed if they too didn't embrace this fact. This game was built on a pen & paper role-playing game backbone that if allowed to be integrated into the system would have an amazing exponential effect on the units you move. Nobody wants to buy an rpg without a multiplayer option and the freedom of modification. Please make it right.
Bloodlines is an excellent game with a load of potential. The modding community at times can do amazing things, and with an SDK, so much could be gained both to the bloodlines community and to future modders. With the recent demise of troika, it would be a shame to lets this excellent game languish, so please consider releasing an SDK, I am sure it would be worth it!
We have this game, Vampire Bloodlines. We have witnessed it's greatness. Now we take that greatness and keep adding to it. So it evolves from a game, to a universe. To put it simply, you can always play a game to death, but you can never kill a universe...
With an SDK you will be able to improve customer relationship, increase product life cycle, ... ;-)
For us that would mean: Great Time and lot of Fun.
PLEASE !!! - Release.
Without Troika, we will never see anything in retail. I hope for a SD Kit to continue the great work of Bloodlines. HL was a hit because of Valves ideas to make easy MODs

Since Troika has gone under, any possibility for retail expansions has been reduced almost to nothing. Therefore it should be up to the community(who I'm sure would be more than willing) to expand on the VTM games and improve the experience for all players and fans alike.
It seems that the Vampire community will not have a Sabbat expansion pack to look forward to, now that Troika is out of business. Accordingly, it makes sense to release an SDK in order to perpetuate continued interest in this fine game.
