Vampire Hunter or Vampire Lord?
I arrived at the vampire castle and I have to choose to become vampire or continue as dawnguard.

What are you guys opinions which side to choose? which one is more fun?

I've done Dawnguard a bunch of times, I've done the Vampire lord once, and all other times I've done Dawnguard. I just like crossbows too much. LOL

Both were fun. Up to you. HAHA, save at the point you choose and then revert back to that save and then take your character on a different path.

Though it's a matter of personal preference if you don't have a few vampire mods, including Better Vampires, and Royal Bloodline Vampire Lord Perk Tree, Hunter would probably be better for you the first round.

It's worth to mention that you can become a Vampire Lord even if you join the Dawnguard, just make sure you do all the Dawnguard sidequests first.

It's up to you. If you want to help the vampires then join them. If not then join the hunters. You get the option to be a vampire later on in the story even if you are a hunter. I like the vampire one though.

I've done the questline twice now, once as a vampire and once as a Dawnguard soldier. Imo I enjoyed being the Dawnguard soldier better, partly because of armor, weapons etc. But also because I hated the debuff you got as a vampire if you didn't feed often. I also enjoy being a werewolf and obviously you can't be a werewolf if you are a vampire.

The debuff is nothing compared to the benefits of not feeding. The debuff isn't a problem for me.

It's like the guys already said above, it's a matter of personal taste, I did the vampire quest once, just to see how it was but I didn't liked too much, so, I always join the Dawnguard, mainly because I like to play as a werewolf, and I also have 4 werewolf enhancement mods installed (Mighty Beasts, Moonlight Tales, Werewolf Mastery and Werewolf Perks Expanded) !!!

Thanks for the respond guys, after all I chose for the Dawnguard, the crossbows are awesome :D

You can't become a werewolf when you are a vamprire then? and how to become a werewolf?
Sorry I bought the game a week ago, so I don't know very much yet.

Talk to Commander Caius in Whiterun sometime between midnight and 5am. He says he'll meet you in the Bannered Mare. When you go he will bite you and you'll fall unconcious. After a loading screen you wake up and find that you are a werewolf. The commander doesn't give any clue that it happened and has his normal speech.

Just go to Jorrvaskr in Whiterun, speak with Kodlak, join the Companions and do their questline... =P

If he's ever done that to you, it's because of a mod. The typical method is to join the Companions in Whiterun.

You indeed are not supposed to be able to be a vampire and a werewolf at the same time (though anything's possible, it's somewhat buggy if you pull it off). Personally I tend not to use either transformation (especially at higher levels, your human form is a lot more powerful), but I do prefer the werewolf (which can ragdoll enemies with its power attacks).

The transformations give you a huge power boost in the earlier stages of the game.

I was obviously joking.
