Okay, there's where we differ, since I like roleplaying and not just picking things based on powers and weaknesses.There isn't anything to oWoD clans except Discipline and weaknesses. So... what's so different about nWoD?Uh, not really. By your own standard, a Tremere bruiser is just the same as a Nosferatu bruiser, except for a couple Discipline points and the big giant glaring weakness. Just like nWoD, the only mechanical effects of clan are Discipline and weakness.And if you want to talk about inconsistent weaknesses, oWoD is rife with them, like the Assamite weakness, which only comes into play when drinking Kindred blood... don't be a diablerist and it will never come up, as opposed to something like the Nosferatu weakness, which automatically penalizes you from the outset. Maybe if you, I dunno, actually presented something besides opinion, you might actually have a point.</blockquote>
