I think nowadays, with all the super rules-light narrative games on the palette some people, who prefer those (or NWod/CofD) tend to oversell how crunchy WoD is. It really isn't, it's medium-crunch at best.Also, while I like the WtA background, I'd want a "traditional" werewolf game too. however, I understand why they did it this way, it would had  too much similarity in themes with Vampire if licanthropy would been an affliction.  I might add it's a bit funny how you wrote about your preferences changing, due to the fiction you read and shows watched, because the whole urban fantasy genre was based on WoD in a big way. As far as I'm know WoD was the first modern horror/fantasy setting where a lot of different kind of supernaturals were running around, doing things, politicking, etc. Also, a lot of the writers were played it back in the day and "integrated" fairly obvious parts into their writing. Anyway, I believe those games are still relevant today, the 20ths are quite good (although not my favorite edition visually) and we shall see how the new editions will turn out, I hope for the best!</blockquote>
