    I haven't tried werewolves, but they seem clunky and not terribly useful in ESO. In Skyrim, I was only one because I had to be for the Companions, and avoided using any of the associated skills.

    I tried vampire this time around and didn't like it. Can't imagine my character being one and don't like the look of them - not to say that it should be changed, mind you.

    Tell us all about your 'mature' character then.

    You would never understand, I lost, as almost all adults, interest in vampires, werewolves, frankenstein, ghosts and other lame kids stuff when I reached my middle teens. You will too when you reach it. trust me

    This is a problem of narrow-mindedness, where an individual perceives that only their way of thinking is the adult way of thinking and everything else is flawed. The reality is much more diverse.

    I still love vampires and werewolves because I was fascinated with them as a child, as well as horror movies in general. Just because I am an adult now doesn't mean I have to toss that out because adults can't have fun or some rubbish like that.

    I find it rather foul to suggest that one can't enjoy such things due to their age, or that they are "immature" because they enjoy them. I also still like comic books and action figures. That doesn't mean I am not an adult, I certainly deal with the unpleasant crap about being an adult enough.

    You dont need to agree with me if you dont want to. Ok they suck blood and are dead and all that jazz, and you think its cool and you wanna be one too. Its all good, its ok. But I think vampires and monsters are very childish things! You really say I cant think that?

    umm they aren't real, so no I don't want to be one.

    Monsters are not even remotely childish. Monsters just become different things to adults. Hunger, poverty, homelessness. We can use monsters in stories to underline these problems, If you don't think on that level, no you probably won't get it.

    I dont agree with you. I think monsters are childish. Most adults I know have no interest in such stuff and its my belief that most adults grows out of the fascination of supernatural sooner or later. But then again, how and when did the word "childish" become an insult? Cant it be a good thing?
    You're a very narrow-minded person.

    Additionally, it's disingenuous at best to claim that you didn't mean "childish" as an insult. The term "childish" is, and always has been, a term which is used virtually exclusively in a pejorative sense. Heck, going back at least as far as the senate of ancient Rome we have records of "childish" (well, the word that translates to "childish") being used as an insult.

    I think you guys are narrow-minded for not accepting I and many others think monsters are childish.
    And if you want take the word "childish" as an insult then by all means, I cant stop you. To me its no insult.
    If you want to use the word "childish" incorrectly then by all means, I can't stop you. Just don't be surprised when nobody ever understands what you mean, because that's what happens when you use words in a completely different fashion from the way that everyone else who speaks the language uses them.

    Of course, that's baloney because you and I and everyone else in this thread knows that you meant it the same way that everyone else means it when they use the word "childish" and now you're just back-pedaling. You meant it as a derogatory term, and claiming otherwise now is an incredibly transparent lie.

    It is an insult. The adults you must know seem very boring at any rate. Probably spend all their time knitting and having brunch.

    lol says person playing a fantasy computer game. IF this statement were true than many adults wouldn't go see these movies i.e. Underworld, or any type of vampire book, Bram Stoker would never have written Dracula, no vampire movies, books, No Stephen King book Silver Bullet, no Werewolf in London a cult classic, etc. etc. etc.

    I wish the Werewolves had a look when they weren't turned like the vampires so people could tell that you were a werewolf.

    yea I think that particular post is attempting to elevate him/herself above the rest of us. Just a weak attempt at feeling superior. lol

    I'm an ADULT! Can't you people see how grown up I am???

    Indeed I find them boring, while they, on the other hand, think im childish for playing computer games etc. And they are free to think so. It doesnt change my view on computer games at all or make me feel any less then anyone else. And it should not matter to any of you if I think people that like monsters are childish either. Because I think you are childish.

    Being a vampire or a werewolf should be a vanity choice. I tried vamp for a fair while & the feed every 30 min drove me nuts, so I went back to being me.

    So for those of us who choose not to be either, what abilities do we get to compensate for those getting extra abilities/buffs from being a vamp or werewolf?

    Feels like being punished for staying human, but hey, what do I know I'm just a stupid pleb paying $15 a month for a broken game?

    EASY don't pay it BAM...I know mind blown huh

    besides you do get perks being "regular" you don't have to deal with issues of fire and poison doing extra damage or feeding and ww is an ultimate so if it isn't built up you don't even have to deal with it and while in ww form person can't cast spells or use spell like abilities so yeah there are draw backs.

    Werewolf is best now.
    History, like a human being, is thirsty when it wakes from its slumber…History wants to drink up an enormous amount of blood. And even if history has tired of drinking blood, that’s only in regards to the amount. But what about quality? The larger the sacrifice is, the more delighted the cruel gods will be.
