Got A Peek at Gehenna...

And in the back, it has the first add for the new World of Darkness.

Nothing of substance, save a title: Vampire: The Requiem.

Could mean anything, but the title leaves me with the impression that they're going for more individual angsty stuff of a Vampiric life this time, instead of group dealings (i.e. the Masquerade and the vampire politics).

How about just Vempire? How about dropping this colon crap and stop pretending that people who play this game (which i have long liked) actually do use it as an exercise in psychotherapy.

Maybe this way we can get some of the WW morons from the hobby; the kind that wear long dark leather trenchcoats in midsummer and talk to themselves in rpg shops.

No wait, that last is just me.

We'll get rid of them as soon as we get rid of those DnD cats with too-thick glasses who mutter around to themselves in FLGS the world over. Which means we'll get rid of them when our hobby isn't something that involves imagination and there aren't people who want to use their imaginations to get away from bad day-to-day life.

Snobbery among geeks is gross. Don't be one to participate.

Vampire: The Requiem, huh...I'm interested.

Huh.

"Vampire: The Requiem" suggests to me that they're not going with "human corebook + supernatural fatsplats," then. Drat.

Yeah.

That made me happy. I'm glad WW doesn't need to go the Wizards route in order to make money, and that I can have everything I need in one book.

They might be going with the Exalted/DA model, tho.

Well, that's more what I meant. I basically was saying that I'd be dissapointed with the "Rules in a game that I don't play's core for ease of crossover which I'm not particularly interested in" model.

But, call me crazy.
