I really don't get why you contrarians want to make things so difficult for others. I suspect Finder is on the right track with his/her post above explaining why people actively work to stop others from getting something: it doesn't benefit you, so you actively work against it. Just plain selfish.
One thing to keep in mind: I'm only asking it be an OPTION. Like I said in the op, if you like the vampire look, keep it. I'm not trying to force my opinion on anyone.
And frankly...the argument that 10% regen is the trade-off for the horrible look is asinine. We have entire skill trees that grant us benefits, many of which are stronger than those of vampirism, yet there are no trade-offs for those. They cost skill points and skill points only.
All I want is an option for my character to look the way I made her.

Your character looks they way you made her, YOU MADE her a vampire..so what is the issue. This has been like this for 5 years, game launched like this, you knew what would happen.
This has been discussed ad infinitum and frankly the argument that appearance is an issue for vampires is asinine.

How is it selfish to agree with how the game is designed and abide by it? Perhaps you need to understand what selfish really means?

Naw, you're just arguing for the sake of it. You like to be a contrarian. This literally doesn't matter to you.

aside from the fact that glamour actualy exists in ESO and we have in game vampires actualy very successfully hiding their visible vampire (rivenspire story) its kinda funny that right now, in RL, we have makeup that can cover up scaring, tatoos etc... and yet some how in a land of MAGIC of ESO... we have skins that completely change our appearance but NOT basic foundation etc?
visible vampiric appearance makes. no. sense. especially when you consider just... going about general population looking like a vampire and somehow no one bats an eye.

If you are giong yo invoke rl as reason to be able to hide vampirism wiymth make up then I invoke rl as a reason the game should remove vampires, after all we do not have them in rl.
RL justifications just do not belong in a fantasy MMO, stick to thematic or lore justifications

The appearance is one of the effects of being a vampire. It was made sense to me that there's this kind of pros and cons(in fact, a subjective con).
Why is it that you want to be a vampire and avoid seeing it?
I too want Orc bonuses without looking like an Orc, can I have that then?

Yes; just put the tattoo marking layer above vamp layer and problem solved.

except real life gets brought up often enough when "its not realistic" excuse is used.
the fact that ESo is NOT a real life is PRECISELY THE POINT. this is a game with MAGIC. MAGIC that was ESTABLISHED on multiple occasions to be capable of HIDING vampirism. so why are you totaly cool with glowing magma skins but... not being able to glamour up regular appearance?
please, stop pretending that your arguments have anything to do with lore, you just want to punish people for choosing to be a vampire even though as it has been pointed out that there are other multiple skill lines with strong passives that have NO drawbacks
well.. I even have a suggestion, to placate you "you must suffer" ilk.
a magically cast buff. you can only hide your vampiric appearance if you have that buff active and in order to maintain that buff, you lose, lets say 4k of your magika pool. this way, for actual combat - you just remove the buff, look all veiny and ugly becasue for whatever reason having other people's characters look terrible is important for you and have your full magika pool accessible. trying to look normal? have to cast that buff again. think of it as old school bound armaments, except instead of purple eyes, players get their normal appearance back and it costs part of magika pool as long as its active.
and speaking of which, I love how we have all these visual effects that we can cast on ourselves and its perfectly ok, and lore friendly, but a very basic glamour that npc's get to do all over the place? is somehow a no no. sigh.

Good lord what's wrong with you people? (sorry, it's getting a little frustrating lol) Again I ask...how would it affect you in any way, shape, or form if someone else is allowed to have their character look the way the character was created? Why would you argue against it? It doesn't affect you at all...
Besides that, your race argument makes no sense. It would be a different thing is Vampire was a race chosen at the beginning of the game. But no, it's a skill line that costs skill points and experience to upgrade, just like all the other skill lines.
But again...we're asking for an option. An OPTION. The same way we can hide our helmet if we don't want to see it. An OPTION. If you like the way your vampire looks, great! I don't want to force my opinion on you...by all means keep your vampire's appearance the way it is. But I, and others, would like the option to cover it up. An option that you can opt out of and not be affected by. At all...

I do get it. I have magicka characters also, and not a single one of them is a vamp. Why? Simply because I do not want them to look like a vamp. I dont like the way vamps look (sorry to the ones who do, its just my opinion).
So its really simple, if you dont want to look like a vamp- dont be one.
Now, going back to options- usually something I am all for. But this I cant get behind. Not unless it is discussed to fix werewolves (of which I do have one) as well.
I want werewolf passives, but without having to have fur and a tail. Yes, its true that I dont have fur and tail most of the time- but you know what else I dont have?
Werewolf passives and skills. Cant have those unless I show fur and tail.
The way you vamps make it sound is like you want the passives and skills full time but not look like a vamp. This isnt right, and I think is why many are 'contrarians'
Instead, you should ask to make vamp take up a slot as an ultimate like werewolf, and you will only be vamp ugly when vamp ultimate is engaged and this will also be the only time that vamp passives and skills are available to your character.
If you put it in these terms, you may find that you will have more support among the non vamps and 'contrarians'.
Of course then those who like the way vamps look now might be upset, but a skin can be offered to them to make them look like vamps full time. Its about the options, right?

No. Vampires are unholy abominations and their wretched appearance is appropriate. You have the choice not to be vampire.
I never understood why some people just want to kill other people's fun for no reason?
What argument is there behind it ? "I dont want you to look like you want, because you should be ugly "... okay ... thanks...
