At least they are not asking for preorders this time

I think being an Elder would fit better for the amount of power you'll have as a PC, it makes more sense for an Elder to be carving up other Elders rather than a fresh embrace.

The technology learning curve will be very interesting if they don't handwave it away with "you spent the last month privately coming up to date on tech" or something similar. The PC mirroring the immortal words of my grandfather when I once asked for his WiFi password: "What's a WiFi?" would be hilarious

If this was a well planned out AAA series, a game or two as a prequel would be awesome, I'm all for a Cowboys and Kindred game. Maybe they could've had an import save system like they did in Witcher3 so your choices impacted the game.

But presumably at the start of the game you won't be carving up Elders. I feel like, narratively, it's easier to justify an unusually quick growth in power than it is to explain a dramatic reduction in power from where you should be.
