I definitely did (and still) prefer to use the core simplified stats for other supers. In Vampire, Much easier to just treat a “mage” as a mortal with lots of Thaumaturgy and a few other Disciplines.

I also make it clear in my Vampire games that when they meet other monsters, they never line up 1-for-1 to the way they are depicted their own gamelines. Last Vamp game I ran, the werewolves were more like parasitic wolf spirits that possessed human bodies, and magic users were closer to Adepts from Unknown Armies than anything out of Mage.

Yeah, I think the only reason you would use the full rules for other creatures is if you had a pc that was playing as one. Unless the system is a very simple one to begin with NPCs should always be less complicated stat wise than PCs, PCs only have to keep track of one character, the DM has to track a lot more, plus kinda track all the PCs.
