Honestly, a big boon with earlier 2e corebooks was mentioning in the Recommended Reading sections older nWoD/CofD 1e books that could still apply to 2e...that they sadly phased out in later releases.

(although not listing any Geist 1e books for 2e makes sense considering, well, Geist having the biggest overhaul in mechanics and setting that nothing from 1e can really be applied to 2e without a LOT of rewriting)

Which again, that's not really saying much since a lot of the Z-splats from the other gamelines like Bloodlines, Lodges, and Legacies don't have a lot of official 2e write-ups. It's not something exclusive to Werewolf....

[tasti man LH]

That's not comparable since the core rules are needed in for the corebook to function as a game. Not having a Drain Dread Power listed doesn't suddenly make Hunter 2e unplayable....

So the thing about that...

1. OPP has been upfront in saying that they're trying to avoid going nuts with "convert 1e-Thing to 2e" when it comes to 2e material. For instance, why they haven't been in a hurry to convert into 2e EVERY single 1e Bloodline, Lodge, Legacy, etc.

2. I can only assume that extends to 1e Dread Powers as well where OPP doesn't want to redo ALL of them for 2e...and thus you're left to convert them yourself to 2e.

Now, yes I'll concede that feeling like it's mandatory grabbing for an extra book not part of the current edition...

Is there clear and decisive proof Dread Powers can't recreate "classic" powers of vampires, shifters, and witches?

Show me....

...no they don't?...

[tasti man LH]

You mean...the regular old Horrors system that was incorporated into 2e as a whole?

Unless if there's additional material from the 1e version that was never incorporated into the 2e version that I'm not aware of, I'm not sure how that's an issue aside from the inconvenience of pulling up a second book not directly in the same gameline....
