But I do hope we do get something vampire related but I do hope they will not be the big bad. Hopefully we will get Dawnguard, but I would really like to see them reverse the roles as them being the central villians along with a plot from the Daedric Prince of Living Energies Meridia. Maybe attempting to Purify the World with the Temple of Meridia.

But Meridia hates the undead which includes vampires? My money is also on black reach but maybe the vampire storyline ties into this...maybe we fight on meridias side once more against the vampires

This references her beacon, the events of Summerset with Darien and ends on a rather eerie statement.
I'd be very surprised if Meridia doesnt play a big role in 2020

I highly doubt Meridia would play an antagonist given our past interaction with her, fighters guild and her presence in the past adventures.
I can certainly see vampires having something to do with the next expansion if it's titled "The Dark Heart Of Skyrim"
My money is on something vampire related tbh. I really don't think they'd do another Daedric prince. Thoughts? Idk, the Dark Heart of skyrim just sounds so gothic/vampire-like to me.
Vampires are considered as False Life by any sources. Vampires can't be healed by common healing spells, they need special Necromantic Healing spell (includes Restore Health to Undead effect and Heals the undead target description). Souls of vampires can't be seen by using Detect Life spell, they are visible only to Detect Dead spell. Also you can learn much from Serana: 1) Vampires aren't counted among the living. 2) (about Valerica in Soul Cairn) I can't imagine living here. Or... being dead here. 3) (about Valerica) I can't believe we found my mother alive... well, you know what I mean.Thevampirenight wrote: »What Meridia hates is False Life, Dead Moving around. Maybe Dwemer Constructs and Robot people. But Vampires are not False Life, they are the opposite False Dead and this can be seen in the way they can still eat, still be healed by living healing magic and can even drown.

I am almost sertain there will be something related to vampires, probably Dungeon DLC. Because in july of 2019 were datamined some vampire related stuff, some of it appeared at witchers festival event, but some still didn't apeared in the game, such as:But, i think, most of the year will be about Falmers and their underground dungeons.
- Long-winged bat pet
- Thrall's arterial map face marks
- Thrall's arterial map body marks
As it is said on uesp, Detect Life may recognize the briar heart itself, a living thing. It is a good explanation.Thevampirenight wrote: »Some Strains might be resistant to healing, but yet vampires could heal themselves, and be effected by healing magic normal healing magic in Oblivon and Skyrm and Online. They can eat and drink. Detect Living worked on Forsworn briarhearts in Skyrim for example but were also effected by Turn undead. Vampires were not even classed as undead in Morrowind or Oblivon. Were not even on the list for undead. Plus were not effected by Turn undead in either of those games as I recall. They changed that in Skryim I think mainly for the Detect Dead Spell. But also to make Turn Undead more useful. But the idea that they are not false life I explained above but I will go more in depth.
Have you seen Vastarie? She is a lich, not even a vampire!Thevampirenight wrote: »Even Lamae Bal herself wasn't killed but actually was still alive as shown in Eso when she transitioned into a vampire.
That is not entirely true. Story of Redguard shows us that resurrection is technically possible (if you can place the soul in a correct vessel that they failed to).Thevampirenight wrote: »WIthout the ability for normal mortals to be resurrected vampirism cure cannot work to resurrect someone.
I vote NO on vampires. We do not need Twilight Online.
