Because if you did play it, you can see why the vamps and the wolf's in eso just don't live up to the ones in SKYRIM.

    I miss when werewolf hunters would come after you back in Daggerfall. Or when you were forced to feed on innocents to satiate your bloodlust.

    Protip: this is still an MMO, MMOs are more restricted than single player rpgs.

    We could always go back to the days of Oblivion, where standing out in the sun did damage to Vampires.... Otherwise it might be a good idea to keep some of the aspects from the single player ES games away from this one.

    If it was skyrim, dual wield would be OP as hell and two handed would suck ass, rather than the other way around

    I do kind of wish that all the locations in the PvE zones were separated by acres of empty, lonely wilderness though.

    Because not everyone can be a "super cool Vampire Lord" ? Thats just a possibility in TES V, im glad we are "regular" ones.

    You should see how normal vampires in previous TES look, feel and how they played.
    You really had to equip something against nonstop sun damage, or lurk around at night times etc, people didnt talk to you anymore and more (well, in TES III).
    What I miss about being Vampire here, is a vampire quest line.
    TES III offered you the possibility to do vampire quests for I think 3 or 4 different clans. Depending on which clan you joined, you could benefit from nice constant buffs like better Sneaking, More Strength, More Willpower etc.

    I think the ESO Vampirism is mostly based on Oblivion. As Vampire you could talk to anyone without harm, people still talked to you at all, and also the 4 stages of vampirism where in TES IV first, which you could reduce by feeding on people.

    Notwithstanding the fact it's the same company, some staff is shared and a bunch of digital assets in ESO are pulled from Skyrim with just applying a lower polygon count.

    Sounds like Cyrodiil to me.
