This is contrary to my experience in a long term VtM campaign from the 90s to the 00s where I played a brujah who got into rolled out combat all the time. In the 2010s I played in a different long term VtM20 game with a character with zero combat skills and had a blast going from borderline anarch to prince. People play World of Darkness games in all sorts of different play styles, even in the same game group. There is discussion about the crappy mechanics and the changes in the mechanics. There are people really into the roleplay who don't really know the mechanics. There are people into the politics and lore who are not into the roleplay. There are people who focus on the personal horror and ones playing vampire themed superpowered heroes or villains. There are people playing the same WoD games differently.</blockquote>
