"One thing that could have been more straightforward; White Wolf had the opportunity to just make the three games simply called Vampire, Werewolf, and Mage. They didn't and I think they missed the boat."

Actually, we discussed this and universally felt that single-word titles genericized the affair. We haven't made games about "vampires" or "werewolves," we've made games about a specific experience with a specific interpretation of vampires, werewolves, etc.

O.K., but you do not feel that the same thing could have been accomplished by using the World of Darkness: XXX moniker?

p.s. Thanks for dropping by.

Not really. The system we have established imparts a bit of insight and imagery to the game itself. World of Darkness: [X] just says you're buying into a series.

I guess we will have to agree to disagree, thanks again for stopping by.

Actually, I think your point is valid, but in pursuit of a different goal than our intentions.
