Topic: Which Version of Vampires do you prefer?

[darkwzrd4]

Throughout the series we have fought many vampires.  However, we've seen two versions of vampires: the human looking ones that we are most familiar with and the bat-beast looking ones found in LoS.  Of these two versions, which to you like the most?  I personally prefer the human looking ones.  It's probably because they can blend in with humans where as the other type sticks out like a sore thumb.

Where's the option for both. Like human looking ones that can transform into beasts. That's my favorite

[Gecko]

I've always preferred the bat-creature-like ones. They generally hide in their humanlike disguises. That wasn't new to LoS though. That's been there since CV64. In fact, I thought of the LoS vampires as sort of a reference to that. It's the most powerful ones that can hide their true forms. Besides, that's what Dracula technically is in most games.

I like both as long as they don't walk around in broad daylight without burning to death.

[Ridureyu]

But that only dates back to Nosferatu, really.  Dracula evenw andered around in the daylight without any problems.

[Kingshango]

I see Dracula as a special execption, he can walk in broad daylight but his powers are limited.

The way I see it, sunlight to any vampire (that isn't Dracula) should be fatal.

I like both as long as they don't walk around in broad daylight without burning to death.

The original Dracula could walk into sunlight only losing its supernatural powers am I wrong?

[Ridureyu]

Sort of.  He certainly had less power, but he was still an immortal undead monstrosity.

As long as they're not gay-Twilight-stuff, it's okay.

I have a little preference for human-looking vampires, who can morph into BIG BLACK BEASTS, ROAR!

[DragonSlayr81]

I prefer the ones that look human, but have the ability to transform into their second "demon bat" form. Or even demon-esque form(like Olrox). I generally like them to remain in their human form as long as possible, and only transform to tap into that extra power(like Frieza in DBZ). Never transform to prey on humans. It's always a failsafe after their human form is defeated. I didn't care for Brauner and Olrox in LoS, because they were already in bat form(as were the lesser vampire enemies).

Of course, as vampires were concerned, I always loved the idea that they were the nobility of the monster world. That you rarely seen them as normal enemies in the classic timeline(other than the ones in CV64/LoD and the Draculinas in OoE) and most of the time, they are so powerful, they are bosses. It makes them seem "special".

i like both and mixed.

[Ridureyu]

Personally, I love the Loogaroo.

there is not an option for both
and there is most certainly not an option for sparkling twilight

and there is most certainly not an option for sparkling twilight

Because real Vampires don't sparkle. That's just a personal preference by the writer in general. I chose option 1. I've also read somewhere that if a vampire (who is human-looking) is starved on blood for a long time will digress into an ugly, vile and deformed monster. Probably resembling the second option listed here.

I prefer for them to look initially human but transform into a demon/bat form when they unleash their true powers.
