Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.

Funny thing was I was in Europe when the game came out, but a few years later I got to live in LA and of course I went to Santa Monica many times (including the pier).
Sound (both the track selection and the composed track) fits perfectly. Both excellent for ambience and the spirit of the early 2000s.
Great share!
I've never been there, but I've heard people say the same about the Hollywood hub as well. Perfectly capturing that run down, depressing and sordid shabby reality of early 00s Hollywood. Plus the amazingly haunting OST there, written when Schaffer was fresh out of jail, homeless and withdrawing from Heroin if I remember right.
As a big Bloodlines fan, have you played Mandragora? It only came out recently so I haven't yet personally (it's on my wishlist) but it's written by Brian Mitsoda!
Yeah, Hollywood did feel a lot like it was in the game.
Was a bit strange as my frame of reference was Europe and Asia were downtown areas are the most busy and expensive.
I've heard of Mandragora, but these days I just can't get into ARPGs.🙃
I have unfortunately heard mixed things about Mandragora but seeing it has Brian Mitsoda I will play it some day. I'll try to remember to let you know what I think of it. Might be a while though, I'm waiting for a sale as my backlog is too long anyway 😅
