Bloodlines 2 has a season pass called Season of the Wolf. Not sure if they'll try to do a direct tie in to this, but sounds like they do have some idea to crossover the concepts at least somewhat

Vampires rule the cities in their glass towers and werewolves destroy logging operations in the wild is the simple answer.

i think my problem is that in vampire regular humans are for the most part completly unaware of anything supernatural existing while here we see werewolves fighting against human armies in the open

It's explained in-universe. Werewolves are protected by "Delirium", a sort of primal fear that makes regular humans not remember them clearly or explain their attacks away as "wild animals".

It doesn't help that they're on a wildly different power levels, too. But yeah, you can generally crossover a group of low ranking supernaturals from various game lines.
Yeah in the "old" World of Darkness a Mage, a Vampire and a Werewolf could all transform into a wolf, but everyone with different effect on the people watching them. The "new" (now renamed Chronicles) of Darkness rebooted the universe to be much more cohese.

It looks pretty boring. I honestly think not going pure action, but more of an adventure spin with stuff like the Umbra and such would have made for a less generic looking game.

This trailer sure makes this game look like one that's not for me. Whole tone of it makes me think of edgy PS2 era stuff. Not very appealing.

But the actual game might be less like that and possibly have other stuff going on.
I like the idea of an eco-terrorist werewolf. Where else do you see something like that?

This looks terrible. Like a game from the early 2000s. Even the music feels likes it's straight from that era. It's kind of embarrassing.

Hahahahaha, that was an enjoyable trailer. Werewolves are great, if the game can keep up a killer tone and play decently I'm in. So damn cheesy ahahaha

This looks straight up like some goofy bargain bin PS2 era title and I'm morbidly curious now.

It's so fucking silly, if the combat is fun, I'd pick it up.

This could be fun. I'll give it another look when they can put up a trailer with more gameplay and less buttmetal.

On one hand, i've been waiting over 20 years for a Werewolf: The Apocalypse game.
On the other hand...i didn't expect full on brawler.

I think this trailer is only showing the combat side of this. Styx ended up being surprisingly fun as a stealth adventure so I'm optimistic.
Also Its a Werewolf game so I'll take what I can get.

The name, the gameplay, and the music choices all make this seem like a fictional videogame that you'd see in the background of a movie.

Werewolf: The Apocalypse: Earthblood!

Truly an amazing name

I mean, Werewolf: The Apocalypse is the name of the IP, so it kind of has to be included.

Wait. I thought maxing out your rage was bad, cuz it's Game Over?

Other than that, looks interesting. I didn't see any jump prompts (Thank God), so this looks fairly competent.

The "stances" thing reminds me a bit of Witcher 1 and its "fast, strong, or group" fighting styles.
Cyanide is very hit or miss, so not gonna be jumping in Day 1, but I'll certainly grab it once it's off the EGS.
