Thanks for the information on Nighthawks - The Vampire RPG. Should be interesting since they mention their influence as Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines.

Very excited about this one! I have backed it. Thanks for post it, oldbroad as I missed it!

I wish I could be excited about it but I'm not. I wish they would go back to straight adventures!

Maybe there will be another straight adventure in the offing in the future.

Yes, those are very strange news...
But Wadjet Eye is just the publisher here, not the developer. So there is hope Dave Gilbert has not yet abandoned straight adventures!

No thanks. I don't care for the post modern notion of a) taking away most of the vampires supernatural strengths and weaknesses and b) trying to make them some how heroic because society doesn't believe in God, Satan, good and evil.

Yes, this is an important point. And Wadjet Eye has published other games before this - several, in fact.

Yes, I know Wadjet Eye is just the publisher here and has published other games. Weren't they all adventure though? I don't know. But adding this game to Unavowed, I'm seeing a trend away from adventure.

It could mean a trend away from adventure, but maybe not necessarily. I agree with you that I hope they continue to make straight adventure games.

Dave Gilbert said on Twitter today that Unavowed is the most financially successful game for them ever. A lot of people seem really big on the urban fantasy theme.

I found this comment on Steam, posted by someone who is involved in the new game/Kickstarter project:

Don't worry, Dave's 'just' the producer - he'll have plenty of time for other stuff :-)

I checked a "demo" at YouTube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dahKsicAGFg
and Nighthawks seems to be closer to a "visual novel"
or "interactive fiction" than what most people think of as an RPG.
I didn't notice anything resembling combat or action, only conversation choices.
The "RPG element" seems restricted to choices you make that determine
what type of character you end up playing.

Visual Novel was my thought too after watching the video on Kickstarter.
