It's because WoD in general and Bloodlines in particular is way out of their usual output. Paradox' bread and butter is map painter games where they milk the same autists over and over with DLC to make them profitable, and even most of the games they publish from third party studios are city/factory-builders (Cities Skylines, Surviving Mars, Prison Architect...) which catter to a fairly similar crowd. They have little to no idea what the typical WoD fan likes, which is why they trust the LARPers they put in charge of the IP nearly blindly when it comes to making stuff for WoD5 and also why they choose a studio which, up until then, has only made walking simulators with making an RPG wih actual combat
