Vampire No Heat or Bounty For Feeding

it doesn't make sense, especially with the dark brotherhood expansion out, that when I feed in towns stealthed and out of sight I get a bounty. Sure I could understand getting a bounty if your seen but if no one sees you other than your pissed off victim then why??? Murder and thievery can go undetected and completely accepted but vampires are the worst bad guys?? than a murdered??? I let most my victims go...
and why cant we bite sleeping citizens and have them not notice...that could be a cool way to incorporate feeding in towns. sure i could sneak up on some unexpected bad guy in the world but I think it would be fun to have that kind of hunt feeling you get when on a thieves guild quest or dark brotherhood quest where your hunting down your target. Just some thoughts... OH and also the darn body decorations for the vampires needs to be adjusted so bad. I want to use the bloody chest body decal on my vamp but it just looks pink and silly not bright red like on a nonvamp.

    I don't even feed... I love that stage 4 stealth passive. Wish I could get rid of the stupid feed option when I am trying to stabby stab.

    I agree on both points. I believe you get bounty because the victim you are feeding from "sees you" and isn't dead when you are done. But if there are no witnesses and you proceed to kill your victim, how would they have been able to report you and give you a bounty? It makes sense if you leave them alive, but not if you kill them - for that matter, if you kill someone in any way, vampire or other, and there were no witnesses, there shouldn't be a bounty, imho. I mean, unless you walked through the blood on your way out, and straight past a city guard or snooty noble......

    The Vampire appearance, in general, is disappointing. I really wish there were zero signs of Vamp until Stage 3+. I didn't want to be a vampire on my Templar Healer, but could not resist the regen passive after Morrowind, so I did it. Now I have to keep her helmet on, or wretch a little each time I see her face, which really bums me out. But the body decorations all being seriously muted is odd too. Maybe they can take a look at that some day, I know they have the visual geniuses to do it, if given the time!

    Yea at the very very least vamp stage 1 should have no visual changes so that you can "blend in" with society. Unless vampires are considered ok in society now so long as they starve to death and don't feed... which doesn't seem to fit with lore at all.

    I was so disappointed at the visual changes that I made a dark elf vamp because it was the closest toon to already looking like a vamp haha.
