The tags on Steam are

so I think it's only a borderline RPG - maybe I'm wrong.

Ah OK. Maybe it's borderline, to be honest I never played any of the series, I just saw it had RPG features (exploration, character class, attributes, normally story though it's apparently not in there so early…).

I was mostly curious about the criteria

In the tabletop game, a blood hunt is when a prince puts essentially a bounty on the head of a vampire and encourages other vampires to hunt them down and kill them. So its actually a plausable scenario to build a battle royale game around. That genre has absolutely zero interest for me, but the DOTA players on the forum (and there are a few of them) might find it interesting enough to give a try.

I didn't know what a battle royale game was, didn't even know it was a genre. After reading the description, I'm sure it's not for me either.

Same, I'd no inkling what that style even meant. After doing a tad bit of research, it seems something that I'd not care for. The concept of battle royale just seems way too chaotic for me to enjoy.

Goddamn DOTA genre almost ruined RTS strategy a few years back. I'm glad a few developers still make RTS games at least. To bad the style I like has fizzled out.

Example being Command & Conquer. Resource gathering, base building, single player campaigns and lets not forgot the cheesy mission videos which were icing on the cake.

Thanks, but I've just bought Planescape: Torment (another one I missed back then). Maybe one of these days though, I've heard good things on this game.

You could also try the original Vampire: The Masquerade Redemption. Just take note that game shows it's age but you can download a good texture pack to spruce it up.
