The next "were-" creature should be…

For me Bethesda decided to replace vampire lords on werebears completely, or we would already have their perk tree.

Lool, you are now thinking they will add it beacuse "fans" requested it,thats not how the things work in Beth[and others].
If they really want to add what fans want, they would simply make a poll about new content, or fixes, and actually add what we requested, instead of adding things and saying that WE requested it.(Who exactly requested it?, A single guy who opened tons to threats about single thing over and over? rofl

I already never play a werewolf, why would werebears be any better. Were-anything is just a role-play gimmick that I just have no interest in.

And then spears. Out of the 40+ characters I played in MW, only one used spears, again just for role-playing.

So having a DLC that added werebears and spears would basically just be a big waste of time for me. I'd rather have more of the things we actually use, like more swords, armors, homes, etc.

I take it werebears are more powerful than werewolves but werewolves are faster.

ALL HAIL THE WEREBEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!

If the thing about werebears is true than my VL will enjoy slaughtering all of Hircine's lame little pets.

About the only things I'm excited for are crossbows (no I don't want to be a were-anything, I skipped the companions questline because of this) and spears. I am having a hard time justifying $20 for that. Ugh.

From the last thread:

Please stop this weresomthing/lycans nonsense. Spears I agree but for the rest. I want to play TES, not some Harry Potter / Underworld / Twilight crap.

I want to see new lands (not another Oblivion plane) and CW / Thalmor plot continuations.
Agreed. I feel like Bethesda is using popular movies as inspiration. Give us more stories and better quests. Running around playing a hybrid Van Helsing/ Underworld game does not excite me.

Hopefully the future DLC will have nothing to do with vampires or werewolves/werebears/carebears.

You guys are ridiculous.

First, everyone complains that both vampires are confirmed and that werewolves won't be in the game, which was upsetting because they haven't been around since Bloodmoon and Oblivion was sorely missing them. Then, everyone complained that vampires and werewolves weren't nearly powerful enough (which I personally disagree with). At the same time, everyone complained that the game mechanics worked like Cyrodiilic vampirism, which was a problem for two reasons: that the disease was Sanguinare Vampiris and not Porphyric Hemophelia, and because the Skyrim vampires were seen as inferior to the Oblivion vampires, who would actively take damage in the sunlight, could silence mages and get a potentially huge buff to skills and attributes. Everyone wanted to see Volkihar vampires and get into their lore via DLC. When the Game Jam footage was released, many complained that much of the content wasn't in the vanilla game. Hands down, two of the most asked-for updates to the game were the flying vampire lord and a werewolf perk tree. Werebears and spears were shown, and those got almost as much attention if not more (look at the polls--those four things were easily the most wanted by the entire community). And finally, the majority of TES veterans have been complaining since Oblivion (six years ago) that vampires have no factions or quests specific to them.

And now that we're finally getting all that--and possibly even werebears--you kids are too kewl to be happy about it and instead litter the forum with your whining about what Bethesda should be doing instead, as if this was a bad choice and nobody should get it just because you don't want it (or pretend that you don't want it just to look cool).

This isn't about any of that teen drama nonsense or Van Helsing references (Van Helsing was awesome, by the way). This is about classical fantasy, which, as a genre, has included vampires, werecreatures, and powerful vampires who take on different forms since before many of us were born. TES, as a series, has included these things and other typical fantasy elements (read: dragons and exploding fire spells) for as long as it's been around.

The community is getting what it has asked for, and then some. The team at Bethesda has been working hard on this for months. This is something you ought to be grateful for, not something you should complain about. If you don't want to play it, don't buy it--I will. Take your "cool kid" popular opinion elsewhere and stop comparing this to Twilight; you're poisoning this forum.

Edit: And Bethesda is not using popular movies for inspiration (and on what authority do you say that, hm?). They're using their own lore. And you should be grateful that we get to visit another realm of Oblivion; last I checked, the previous game was staggeringly successful because of that and its DLC, Shivering Isles, is still heralded as the best DLC content in video game history.

No it's the fact that many cry " Underworld " or " Twilight " the second they hear werewolf and vampire in the same sentence. The idea of Vamps Vs werewolves was around loooonnnnggg before both of those movies. So you guys can stop comparing to them please.

Comparisons to Twilight and other popularly hated things for a basis of hating the DLC are exactly what that is. Obviously, you either don't care to pay attention to what I'm saying, are incapable of understanding it, or are merely instigating.

Side note: I just kinda came here from the last thread and started posting without reading the OP; I read it and the few posts on this thread after I posted my own two cents. I see the moderator note now and I have to ask...how, exactly, are we supposed to have a discussion about the thread topic? I don't entirely understand what kind of discussion would be permitted and what would not be permitted, given the nature of the thread and the nature of things that may have possibly been accidentally revealed.

"Guys, i wasnt aware that Werewolfs and Vampires were copyrighted...
No one complained about Dragons, even though they featured in 10000+ movies INCLUDING HARRY POTTER
TES is a fantasy world that has Vampires and Lycanthropes.
Twilight is a fantasy (eh) world that has Vampires and Lycanthropes.
Underworld is a fantasy world that has Vampires and Lycanthropes.
Harry Potter is a fantasy worl that had Vampires (does it?) and Lycanthropes.
And Twilight wasnt that bad guys. Just the actors were god awful. If Johnny Depp played Edward it would be the best film of all time."

I'm so out of it that I don't even know what Underworld and Twilight are. Not owning a television keeps a fella out of the loop.
