I think it's cool, but most people thought the vampire lord thing was just a goofy joke.

The top 3 most ridiculous were the mudcrab, the vampire and minions and dragon riding. However, now I have come round to the new improved vamps.

The Werebear is already in the lore. And it's the most common Lycanthrope in Skyrim. And i don't think the Vampire Lord is ridiculous.

i know the werebear is in the lore, but of course so are werecrocodiles and weresharks, i'm not saying there wrong to put one in, just the anolytical and logical part of mi brain says it's rediculous but the rest of my brain just goes "HECK YEAH!"

Ald Skaar was a giant mudcrab shell so no not completely ridiculous.

I thought the vampire lords was at first but seeing them they look great I an curious how they will ne explained because lore wise nothing like them have ever existed, now all of the sudden here they are I want to know the story behind this interesting new creatures.

At the time I was like "Yeah, right, Vampire Lord. You couldn't pay me to play that thing in my Skyrim" I was right, I am the one that's going to pay THEM now.

Yes its the most common were creature in Skyrim that is why I think its odd they are not in the game I was hoping they was I really wanted to see them and fight them and then become one of them.

Weresharks and werecrocodiles seem a little ridiculous to me, but the werebear seems no more odd than a werewolf. I think it would have fit the game/setting well. Personally, the vampire lord didn't bother me in the Game Jam video, but I would have prepared a more animalistic style of vampire.

I would love if a portion of the Dawnguard were shapeshifters and could turn into multiple Were animals. Or just bear and wolf.

Yes, I could see that being a lot of fun.

I agree that the Vampire Lord thing definitely seems created by somebody whose exposure to vampires has entirely been through Buffy and the Underworld movies. I've posted about this before, but I really would like to see vampires in a game that were written by somebody whose exposure to vampires in fiction extended further back in time than fifteen years. A little Bram Stoker, some old legends, and so forth. Pop culture is getting a bit too incistuous, I think.

I think second place for most underwhelming thing in the video would be the bo staff masquerading as a spear, but then I've posted about that multiple times as well.

So just so I don't come off as a cranky ol' grump, I will say that I have high hopes that the developers did well with the new DLC.
