Here is a food for thought that I got from Gamefaqs forums :P don't know if they will portray in the game. But Alucard has to feed to survive right? So is he feeding it on animals or monsters like mirror of fate or HUMANS in centuries before modern setting. Does he feed on criminals? Kinda of like a benevolent hannibal. What do you guys think?

If he feed on humans he'd look as Trevor, and for all we know he's still grey, unless he decided to go full Genya Arikado.

I am just wondering because he looks way better than he did in MOF, maybe a stylstic choice but also I don't expect Alucard to look like old Dracula so I expect he is drinking blood of some sort.

How did Iga Alucard feed? He could eat regular food, right?

IGA Alucard is a dhampir (half-vampire, half-human). They can survive either by food or drinking blood. LoS Alucard is a full vampire so he needs blood and only blood to survive. We just don't know if he feeds on humans or animals yet.

Console limitations. As you can see from the MoF artwork, he was always meant to be a beautiful man (of course, it's Trevor, I mean, take me, now).

One thing Id like to see happen is God popping in at the end and telling Gabe what's up. Saying that He never made any promises, only "Holy" men like the Brotherhood and Zobek, so Gabes anger is WAY misdirected. Then he tells Gabe that he loves him, but that Gabe is too gullible and thats not Gods fault.

Then God pimps away.

careful with the theories we write in this forum, MS and Konami are following and it seems they do not like that guesses in the theories.

Well gee, that's just too fucking bad now isn't it?

That's not their call. Quite an arrogant thing to try and crack down on. If they're really that afraid their 'story' may be spoiled, then maybe they should actually craft a good and unexpected narrative. You can see through their "plot twists" a mile away before the games are even out.

Yeah. You know it's a bad thing when people are buzzing and talking about your games.  :P

If there really is anybody at Konami or MS who feels offended by fans discussing their games, they really need to pull their heads out of their asses. That is just ridiculous.

The worst monsters are human.

That's what I was going to say. If they read this forums, they might actually get a GOOD idea of what NOT to do, and hell, I consider a lot of us here(if anything, all of us) very bright and imaginative. They can actually pick up on some of the GREAT ideas we come up with. We DO come up with some interesting things during the storm of speculation!

But we come up with ideas based on what they give us.... You have to have the whole thing planned out so the people making the game can be working on it, Mercurysteam can't just change direction at random.

Bergaron already stated that he expressed it in a wrong way. They DO like us discussing about the game and making theories. They just don't like the leaks which is understandable....

I'm sure they've got a laugh of two from us.

To be fair, have the leaks about LoS2 been that spectacular? Konami-kun from 4chan has mostly teased and hinted so far. It's not like he revealed the obligatory shocking plot twist yet.
