Their eyes glow in the dark.

They could close them and use sense life? :biggrin:

How in any way does glowing eyes affect how loud their footsteps are? I'm not connecting the dots here.

The glowing eyes could be mistaken for glowing insects, they often fly in pairs!

True their eyes do glow in the dark which would make them very easy to detect. But you got to remember we are playing a game. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHbF9ynGZV0 So there really is no point of trying to add "realism" to sneaking. When the enemies forget about that arrow in the head when you enter sneak mode.

Really? how fast would you detect glowing eyes when approaching you from the side or from the back?

But if the person is standing in front of you.

And a master of sneak can vanish by crouching in front of his opponent... stealth was never very realistic in this game.

Yup me and my bro talked about this I called that last perk magic because it is like magic.

I wasn't going to pick the Shadow Warrior perk but then I decided to anyways. Besides, I think it's fitting for a Vampire\Assassin to be able to momentarily vanish into thin air only to reappear behind you and slit your throat. All in all I really don't use it that much unless a I plan ahead while staking out a fort or camp.

What I want to know is why should I be able to be just as effective sneaking up on a vampire (or a Khajiit for that matter) than a mortal as they can both see well in the dark?

It's just about as realistic as a chick with fangs and glowing eyes working as a court mage to the High King of Skyrim. It's Bethesda, if you don't like it - mod it.

Also vampires are supposed to be good at stalking and stuff.

If you really wanted a realistic stalking situation with vampires then you expect too much lol.

That would involves climbing trees and stuff.
Vampires are typically seen as stealthy.

Didn't even need to click the link to know what was coming up there. I laughed my ass off when I first saw it and the pickpocket one.

Back onto the topic at hand, I do believe vampires have eyelids. One closing of the eyelids and BOOM! No more glowing eye problem.

They're masters of illusion.

really? you guys wanna complain something about dawnguard and realistic vampires? this is a video game.. if you want realism, go sneak around irl.. and if you wanna complain about dawnguard, get a ps3, were not even sure we will be able to complain about it yet:|

» Sat Nov 17, 2012 4:07 pm

or better yet, you could go watch a twilight movie.. i prefer any vampire to a bunch of sparkly fairy ones

» Sat Nov 17, 2012 12:17 pm

the glowing eyes are mesmerizing... putting people in a trans-like state when need be? I dunno... Just roleplay it.

Or they should remove those pointless eyes to begin with, and give us back the cool eyes we had before.

» Sat Nov 17, 2012 6:05 pm

I wouldn't mind the original eyes back but if they had a *slight* glow effect when in the dark that would rock

» Sat Nov 17, 2012 11:25 am

Just like cats', yet they are pretty sneaky...

Our eyes didn't always glow in the dark.
