it is your choice. It is your choice to allow the vampires to roam free, it is your choice to not be there when they attack and it is your choice to allow your npc's to die. now pick up your sword/crossbow/what have you and get back in there and slay them all or you will have to live with the consequences of your actions.

I would be fine with the attacks, but realistically there is a thing called "repopulation".

i have multiple saves after purchasing the dlc because i make new saves all the time just incase anything bad happens, even with these precautions i still got sick of reloading and i would have to jump back 20 hours in order to feel like my game is safe again. it doesnt matter how far or close your saved games are to eachother, reloading 10+ times because npc's keeping dying and refuse to run away becomes an annoyance. we shouldnt be responsible for this, bethesdagamestudios should...

repopulation is a bit hard when all the npc's are dead, which brings me to my next point. Undead cities.

What actions? I walked into the same cell as Falkreath, had no intention of entering it, and the vampires spawned and killed the townspeople?

I have a total of five saves for this character, the attacks happened between the level 13 save and the level 16 save while this character is now level 38.

Explain to me how this is my problem?

If your skilled in combat, and sometimes go back in time to fix certain NPC deaths, then you won't have to worry about some sort of repopulation.

But according to all the people for this feature, only one or two npcs die at a time. So why can't there be repopulation again?

I think you are just trolling now because if you actually read some of these posts you would know it is nearly impossible to save NPC's when you don't know what direction the attacks are coming from.

The saves that i have less of a gap then yours, sometimes i have several saves on one level. Maybe you should try that, so if you screw up with one save, you can go back to a previous save in which you were on the same level.

When I decide to role play the Dovahsitter, I will go back in time to fix deaths that I have caused in no way whatsoever, except for purchasing this dlc.

Feel the need to point out that this isn't what people are complaining about. Haven't once, in all these threads seen someone say that they were upset about the vampire attacks because the vampires were kicking their rear ends. They are bringing up the issue because the npcs are dying that happen to have on only robes, iron daggers, 100 hp and no sense of self preservation. That's the problem.

And it is a broken feature if you have to reload a saved game to fix it.

Well skyrim even before dawnguard caused me to have to reload to fix a problem i had. Does that mean the game is broken? No.

No just means you can't live with your actions. This is not a consequence of our actions unless you call installing the DLC one.

reloading before skyrim was for a temporary problem, now we have to reload dozens of times for a permanent problem, that makes this broken

you wont play skyrim but you will sit on the forums and argue? seems counter-productive

Not if the devs take note and fix the issue.

one or two npcs dead does not a ghost town make


you are quite right on both accounts. though at times you have to see the similarities between what is going on in the game and what is going on in the forums.

when people talked about adding a point re-allocation system they where flamed to hell pretty much. basically for something they wanted implemented.

now people are upset because vampires are killing the citizens of their towns and they feel the towns will become ghost towns, which in all likelihood will not be true. their will always be several un-killable npc's(mainly children but still).

of course I do not want people to suffer in a game or constantly have to re-role characters(which was a solution forums goers offered to those who wanted a point re-allocation system. funny when the shoes on the other foot?)

I would prefer an option in the settings menu that had a slide bar which said "less vampires [.................................................V.]more vampires or a NPC repopulation system, or the ability to buy businesses and hire npcs(or force those that yield to you to become servants).

so many problems so little time however. onward to vampire slaying.

i have been attacked very minimally and after beating the mq have not been attacked and overall i have had no npc deaths. I am not saying that this doesnt exist because if it had happened to me i would be upset but i think some people are taking this out of proportion.

This is what we are asking for or an optional quest that allows you to turn it off or at very least for NPC's to run away. An option were everyone can be happy.

The vampire atacks are not something that happens every day.
I almost dont use fast travel i have yet to see vampires spawning at the other side of the city (or at the gates) every time i enter/exit a shop or inn

and if you fast travel somewhere, and see vampires, then load and fast travel to ..... rorikstead?? to trigger the event and kill the vampires without much risk.
its an alternative for those that say that you cant do anything to stop them and dont want to fight in cityes.

I already said what can be done for the small towns, cant say much about them anyway if i dont know exactly the minimum distance required to trigger the event

if bethesda comes out with a solution i will no longer be spending time on here asking for alternatives so that my population in skyrim stays as high as i want it. this is better than not playing skyrim and not trying to complain about this issue

Play how you want to play or no actually play how Kalik tells you to play.

Sorry I'm just tired off the "if its not happening to me, it doesn't exist" attitude. Why are you not playing the game if it isn't bothering you?

haha exactly


They dont have to do what i say, but its a way to avoid npcs casualities.

PURE GENIUS.
