I don't know anything about Scion, but the TV Tropes page for Exalted says:
Quote from: TV Tropes
See also Scion, which is basically diet Exalted meets American Gods.
It's like if you put Beowulf, Homer's epics, and greek, babylonian, and chinese myths in a blender with anime and wire-fu movies. It can get very over-the-top, but it's supposed to do that.

Edit to add: Sorry. I found something about it and see what you meant. It's close, yes, except it's a fantasy setting, Celestial Exalted are chosen instead of being the children of a god, and they've already killed or imprisoned the Primordials (Titans) thousands of years ago.

*************

Oh, oh. And I'll raise my hand too, since I kind of forgot to earlier. Gottii's Dawn Caste needs an Eclipse to smooth the feathers he ruffles.

Exalted Kickstarter

So, it is a lot like Scion?
Exalted came out 6 years before Scion did.

The both deal with mortals who've become empowered, but the setting, tone, mechanics, and 'flavor' of the games are very different.

I've never played (or heard of) the game, so I had a really amusing moment when I saw the thread title and thought it related to Gutter Press...  :D

Amused!

Lallara, Scion is the byproduct of Exalted.
