"A product of its time" might also be a hack buzzword. Who knows, and more importantly: Who cares?

White Wolf may be owned by Paradox, but it's staffed by swedes.
ACTUAL LEE, it's not really staffed by anyone since last year. Paradox gutted the shit out of White Wolf when the edgelord vampire LARPer and his friends who someone put in charge of handling the new edition of Masquerade made the Current Year anti-gay death squads of Czechia part of a sourcebook.
Now everything related to World of Darkness will be outsourced to third parties - which will in most cases end up being Onyx Path, who do the other World of Darkness.

Mage: the Ascension was the only WoD title worth anything. Vampire was too gay, Werewolf was too furry and too emo, but Mage was ridiculous and fauxlosophical ("Paradigm! Quintessence! Consensus!") in the right amount. Get your magickal jetpacks and go fight Lovercraftian abominations in the Deep Umbra! Then come back and enter the Internet to fight the normies of the Technocracy with shamanistic shitposting based on an old Egyptian god of chaos!

I never went to the LARP because I was to young but my brother the jawk went and I hear its pure cringe.

I still don't understand what this is, but when I was in high school/college only the most socially awkward losers played this game. Even I bullied these guys. I couldn't help it.... These goth dorks LARPING around thinking they're vampires... how could I not.

Same. These fags look exactly like the bottom rung, trenchcoat-wearing trash that I have zero remorse about bullying back in the day.

Vampire LARPers are the virgins to the D&D tabletop chads.

Werewolf was hilariously stupid. It was literally "Captain Planet, except you turn into a furry instead of summoning a capeshitter".

Less bad entries, aside from Mage, might probably be Hunter (aka "Humanity, F*ck Yeah!"), and Demon (aka "Magical robots having spy adventures against a god computer doing X-Files shit.")

Also the special snowflake dictionary every line has makes me want to strangle the writers.

The sjwism in the first game was nothing more but satire, well in my opinion, assuming by politics in this game they mean the politics of the vampire society, working your way to the top, back stabbing, betrayal, loyalty to the clan.

Legacy of Kain is the only good vampire video game series and it’s a convoluted mess. Vae Victis!
