Any opinions on requiem yet? i have got to read a bit about it but not enough to really say if in going to be into it... i dont know if the changes that they made are good or bad concidering that on white-wolf.com they did not even want to give up details about the disciplines, i mean yeah you can find them if you download the "scenario" that they have to be ran, but honestly there isnt even enough information there to try and run a small pre-campaign style game.... it shall be interesting...
any one else?

    Dull as ditchwater reworking of exactly the same concepts as before.

    Taken away the old game that people were vested in, coated it in glitter and resold it as new.

    The new system has some fundamental flaws that are only addressed in optional rules. The setting IS more open which is good and there seems to be more emphasis on mortals.

    Overall the game, and the graphic design (the Vampire Logo and the WOD cover are AWFUL) is substandard.

    Very dissappointing, fails to break new and interesting ground.

      I have found it Ho-Hum so far.

        I came up with a better analogy.

        Old WOD is Star Wars, with all the canonical spin offs, rpgs, merchandising etc etc. It changed the world when it came in and might be a bit bloated but what the hell, you love it for what it was.

        NWOD is Phantom Menace and Justin Achilli is Jar Jar Binks.
