Vampire gender suggestion

[Victor66]

If we can transform enemy troops into vampires, it would make sense to retain their gender when they turn. A big bulky guy shouldn't become a big breasted vampire chick. I wonder if the creators are going to change this by adding a male skin for vampire, depending on who the vampire was before turning?

If we can transform dead troops into skeletons, it would make sense to retain their size when they animate. A big bulky guy shouldn't become a small thin girl skeleton. I wonder if the creators are going to change this by adding a male/female/tall/short/thick/thin skins for skeletons, depending on who the skeleton was before animating?

When you curse someone with vampirism they flee into the cave. So we could pretend the vampire we get is just a lady they have bitten.

But I agree more skins would be great. If only to keep different characters apart.

It'd have to be a male vampire skin, but have to have to the same animations.

It'd all be up to the artist i think. The game mechanics has only female enemy characters gender in mind, for Bride of Iratus.

I believe the lore explanation for why you get vampires from blood curse is that the vampire is attracted by the blood curse, not that the cursed unit turns into a vampire.

So like.. skin dlc? Maybe i could grab such if it was 5 bucks.

TBH the Fallen Dhampir looks close enough to Vampire Hunter D that I'm ok with the current skins. But if we have to have a male vampire skin, it's gotta be Alucard from Hellsing, not that he needs a knife to fight anyway...

I like my vampires to be pretty and sexy and feminine. I'd rather not have male ones, because then they wouldn't be.

I agree it doesnt make sense, but its also a game and if we argue logic then I could counter that all battles are represented as 4v4 to simplify things, when each battle is actually dozens or hundreds of troops. So while you may be turning a male or mutant etc into a vampire, it could be argued that a female in the said characters' army was turned.

The other counter argument is creating a separate gender model and animations is not worth the devs resources unless they charged for it as dlc.

This is something that's important like the question about, which gender the bone golem have... It's completely nonsense and be happy that there's an additional class...

Nobody needs gender equality in games, because it's games made by people (from their creativity), to make the game especially like it is.

If you want the game to be different, then make a game on your own with all the furry hermaphrodite thingy-lingys you want.

Man, it's just a game! 🤦‍♂️

OP was just trolling. You already noticed that no one argues about logic, much less dragging gender issues into it. The post was presented with just enough sexist undertone to get people bicker over it, while the talking point is meaningless within context of the game in the first place.

It's just as ridiculous when you replace gender and vampires into size and skeletons, as I did in the post.

But we can have an actual discussion on skins instead. More skins and more minions!

[Dunnit]

More minions always welcome. Skins I don't need.
The just should make a Steamworks hop thingy, that all the dreams about skins will come true for this kinda skin fans like you are!

[windezz]

Would love to see some kind of fallen paladin type with guard stance and group wide buffs, kinda like a mix of shieldmaiden and dwarven trader.

[Dunnit]

Imagination knows no bounds... So everything is possible and I hope they will add some nice new minions to the game as well!

Werewolves and undead beholders plz

[Malagon]

No.
