I'm relatively new to the actual rules of Vampire (though I've been following the lore for an uncannily long amount of time), so I'm not sure how experienced of a Storyteller/GM I'd be, but I'm definitely willing to give it a shot if enough people are interested.

Basically we'd start with one or two basic sessions, and if there's enough of a dedicated playerbase left from those then we'd have a big, over-arching storyline involving the players accidentally stumbling into Golcanda-related lore, and a group of mysterious kindred that start trying to hunt them down to stop them from discovering the 'truth'.

Rules would be V20 edition but with Potence and a few other disciplines using their Revised rules instead of the unnecessarily gimped V20 versions of them. The story would be set somewhere in the Final Nights era and thus around the second millennium, though probably around the 70s or 80s rather than the 90s and 2000s. Some metaplot would be ignored, like the Week of Nightmares and the Ravnos clan being almost eradicated. Gangrel fractured into Camarilla and Sabbat sects equally, rather than leaving exclusively for the Sabbat. The Cappadocians failed to break through the Shroud and thus never re-emerged as the Harbingers of Skulls. Etc, etc. That kind of thing.

Would anyone be interested in this? It's a lot to take in and I'm not quite sure if this forum is dedicated enough to put in all that time and effort into such a complex game.

This is Bay12. Of course we're dedicated enough to put in all that time and effort into such a complex game. Most of us play Dwarf Fortress, do we not?

While I'm not personally interested in this game, I'd enjoy taking part if you ever started up a Mage, Changeling, or Genius session.

So if I did start this, what would be preferred; players choose their clans like in a traditional game of VtM, or clans are randomly rolled for via dice and players construct their character based off of the random result? It would only be for clans, not attributes or anything like that.

[micelus]

I'd find both acceptable, but I like the latter.

[Kansa]

I would be interested in this.

A quick question though, are we going to play this on forum or in live sessions? If it's live I might have some trouble with time zones.

[Harry Baldman]

Never played d20 Vampire stuff, nor have much experience with the Old World of Darkness, but I'd definitely be cool with trying out new things. You got some kind of system reference we can check out?

Rolling for clans is pretty good. Will it just be the vanilla ones or can we get Tzimisce by some beautiful accident?

Forum.

All thirteen clans, including Tzimisce. Probably none of the standalone bloodlines, like Baali or Samedi, though.

[Kansa]

Ok cool, I would definitely be interested then.

Rolling the clans sounds fine to me.

[Kansa]

How is this coming along?

[Detoxicated]

Id play. And random roll is fine.

[IcyTea31]

Call me interested. My schedule probably wouldn't fit live sessions too well, but play-by-post works. I don't have the necessary books, though, so unless they're available for free I'll probably need someone to explain the rules. (I do have books for the new Chronicles of Darkness, though.)

How will rolls and other such mechanical stuff be handled?

[micelus]

I believe the OP gave up on this idea. It's been more than a month.

[Harry Baldman]

Clearly we need to start our own, with Russian roulette and blood dolls.

[micelus]

Yes, I'm interested in playing a game of vampires trying to run a Las Vegas casino.
