Looking at it from here, this game was an utter disaster. So much so that the authors' response was "well, system doesn't matter, just ignore all the rules!" Of course Edwards panned it, what good is there to say of such a system? People may have had a great time playing V:tM, I'm sure many did, but it wasn't because of anything in the game itself.
I don't think that's true. Its just the system was good for a different kind of game about vampires than the designers seemed to want. It had problems, but it worked well enough for some kinds of action/horror/urban fantasy campaigns as long as you stayed in the bin.
