I found this to be a nice article; just a few notes:
- The end of the first paragraph ends abruptly - is this an unfinished sentence or just missing punctuation?
- I guess I somehow missed (or accidentally removed) a period here - fixed.--AlexandraIDV 07:12, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
- Overview:
- What are "the Imbued"?
- It's just what this game calls characters who have been given powers and knowledge of the supernatural. Reworded it.--AlexandraIDV 07:12, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
- "These are called edges" - what does "These" refer to? There are a lot of things in the sentence before, which might warrant a split.
- Re-reading it, you're right - I've split the prior sentence and specified what "these" refers to.--AlexandraIDV 07:12, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
- What are "the Imbued"?
- Production:
- "and how power corrupts" - maybe clearer with an object?
Although the game includes monsters appearing in other World of Darkness games, they do not necessarily abide the same rules as in their home games, allowing for a vampire in Hunter: The Reckoning to be more brutal and vile than one in Vampire: The Masquerade and to have other abilities and weaknesses, creating an experience for players used to other World of Darkness games that reflects how hunters do not know how vampires work
seems a bit unwieldy, maybe split before the specific example of a vampire.- Agreed.--AlexandraIDV 07:12, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
- Is there any information on why the second edition is called the "5th Edition"? If this is a result of "Development of H5 began during the production of the fifth edition of Werewolf: The Apocalypse", I think it could go with clarification.
- This is something that has made it really annoying to write about H5. It almost certainly is a branding/marketing thing relating to how the most recent / upcoming versions of Vampire and Werewolf both are #5, but without a source to cite for this it would be WP:OR to say so. Really hoping Achilli or whomever gets asked about this in an interview at some point.--AlexandraIDV 07:12, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
- Alright, in that case without I agree there shouldn't be anything there.

- Consider using {{abbr}} for "TBA"
Magia i Miecz found it strange how the hunters themselves use supernatural means to fight off supernatural beings, however.
-- maybe move "however" to front? not too big of a deal- Tweaked the sentence--AlexandraIDV 07:12, 2 December 2021 (UTC)

- @Eviolite: I have addressed/responded to all your points above. Apologies for taking some time on this!--AlexandraIDV 07:16, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
- No worries on the delay. I'm happy with the changes and all comments are addressed, so am promoting to GA. Nice work. eviolite (talk) 16:23, 2 December 2021 (UTC)
