Does Stu Venable allow those options for regaining willpower? p.267 • (Storyteller’s Option) Characters regain one Willpower point each night when they first rise. This is easy on the bookkeeping, and allows a steady stream of Willpower replenishment (not to mention the fact that players are already writing on that part of the character sheet when they mark off their nightly blood consumption). • (Storyteller’s Option) If a character attains some extraordinary goal or fulfills an outstanding objective, the Storyteller may reward her with a point of Willpower. For example, if a character manages to deter a team of vampire-hunters from her sire’s haven, the Storyteller may award a Willpower point to that character. • (Storyteller’s Option) If a character behaves in a manner that fulfills her Nature Archetype, the Storyteller may reward the character with one to three Willpower points (as stated in the Archetype descriptions). For example, if a Rebel character rabidly opposes a powerful elder, and that elder is later revealed to be a Sabbat spy, that character may be given a point of Willpower.

I think he goes solely by the Nature option. He's mentioned in the past that he is deliberately being stingy with Willpower points.

It's probably a response to rests in D&D. It makes the PC's think long and hard on whether they want to really spend that willpower. Otherwise, they'd use it left and right.

I've always had the opposite experience, oddly enough. I use the daily one point refresh rule and my players almost never use Willpower. They're not new to the system either. They've played Classic WoD for years.
