They don’t have a history of developing system heavy games / immersive sims.

They seem to specialize in very linear narrative experience that are extremely light on gameplay systems. Walking sims is what people like to describe them as.

Are you expecting VTM to be a sim?

Immersive Sim, which is distinct but often kind of vague in its definition, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immersive_sim.

The first game is considered one.
