    This reminds me of the PS2 era of games. Not everything has to be a triple A incredible game, sometimes it's cool to find something you've not really heard of, enjoy it to a degree, maybe enjoy it a lot for a cheap random game you never knew or maybe you don't like it much and then later trade it or something. I'm expecting this to go down in price quickly and I might grab it for a cheap game to complete over a weekend or something. I still want developers to take chances like this and come up with something that doesn't intend on being the biggest and best game available and doesn't try to compete with the top dogs but still offers something new, different or something that's not been done much.

Vampire war ir raging more and more : All I wanted to say there is nothing wrong in being original something that a lot of game developers miss in these days

    Gameplay looks better than Skyrim's, and I've been forced to use that as my sole Werewolf fix in video games for years since no other game really has done much for them in the past two decades. So I'm more than willing to buy this just to tear people to shreds as a big ol wolfy. Plus I've never let a IGN review determine whether I get a game, just gameplay footage.
    If we get more werewolf video games, triple A quality werewolf games I'll be willingly to be more picky, but until then.
