How I play vampire:
Get vampire lord power. Transform into vampire lord. Wipe out entire fort near whiterun (can't remember the name of the fort) take it for myself. Live in it full time. Go out only at night. Pick of straggling guards along the road in vampire lord form. Raid forts and caves if I have time. Retreat to fort at dawnbreak. Rinse and repeat.
There was a mod that I had a while back that was really fun to play with. it was a mod that sent bounty hunters after you depending on your bounty. one or two would come if you had a low bounty. A really high bounty would cause more and more bounty hunters to come. Once I had to abandon my fort because the amount of bounty hunters there was insane and I was losing health fast despite being able to kill one or two at a time. They followed me for a while. I would hide and then throw blood balls at them, then retreat away again. This eventually killed them.
But again more of them came for me. They just kept coming. When I relocated to another ruin with my two dead thralls and about 30 of them came after me in the ruin, I disabled the mod after they killed me and my minions easily, not to mention make my game lag to shit.
This is why I wish Skyrim were an online game as well.
It's hard to find people who are well into immersion these days.
TodaysVocalCovers It's hard to find games that you can get immersed in.
I know. Because most of them rely on competitive-style gameplay.
Skyrim does not.
what kind of weird ass mod is that
? Huh?
Gopher the Trendspeaker: Vampires, they're all the rage right now
What trend?
Hahahhaahh
I loved the Belua Sanguinare mod, it was fantastic. I have a 49 part hardcore playthough using this, And I ended up playing Skyrim in ways I never thought I would.
Actually I forgot to mention that as you gain more power you gained a power that actually charmed people into inviting you into their homes :) Plus all these options are 'optional' and can be turned off. I will cover this in an encore video.
Wow! Thanks for the fantastic review! Great as always to hear that people are liking my mod and that it's still as balanced as I had hoped. Let me know if you've any suggestions or run into any bugs, and I'll do my best to remedy it :)
I would love to see you continue on this mod i read in the forum you got busy with life and that’s totally understandable which by the way I hope everything is good! This mod has brought me tons of enjoyment In my time of playing Skyrim definitely in my top 5 i have ran into some bugs but other than that ive seen past them because this mod is just so amazing
@@_Svartdod_ Wow - throwback! I think back to BSR every few months; the plans I had, the regrets about work/life balance being what it is, but above all, I think the promise I had made that I will one day complete the mod. A promise I still remember, and one I plan to hold myself to. I've been thinking of putting out a bounty/actually hiring some people to work on it. I hesitate to hype it up too much, but I will one day return. In the meantime, you're probably the first person in a decade who has mentioned it to me. I'm glad you've gotten some fun from my work. Yes, quite the throwback.
I played with the BSR mod and it made being a vampire worth it in so many ways. It's definetley a way of "life" when playing. And to rise in rank is a real challenging journey but also incredibly rewarding. Having to feed was a whole adventure. At a point I started to learn all the NPCs that didn't have garlic on them and most of the npcs in a town were my regular feeding sources. It's also great because you can edit almost every aspect of vampirism you want. Best. Vampire. Mod. EVER !
Not all mods are completely lore compliant and this is one of them. The mod authors are completely open about that. They are making the Vampire experience a little more similar to the Vampires of European mythology.
That is not what I meant at all. But I realise some people are fed up of Vampires, and I wanted to give a shout out to insan0hflex anyway, so this seemed a good way to do it. I hope noone took that the wrong way :)
Belua caters to all styles I think. It even adds a way to feed in combat which is fairly awesome :) But I think the difference between the two mods is not one of power or style but on how much it will impact your game. Better Vampires improves Vampires and makes them more interesting without actually taking too much focus from your other quests. BSR on the other hand forces you to focus on your Vampire nature as much as your quests and goals.
It is very common in vampire lore that vampires are not allowed into places that people consider their "home", I believe that it stems from the idea that a person's home or the threshold is considered sacred or holy thus shunning the vampire.
Hey Gopher - thanks for the shoutout! It was a big surprise waking up in the morning (I live on the west coast of the US) and seeing 400+ unread emails. At first I rubbed my eyes, thinking I was imagining things, but it was true =)
Also, thanks to everyone that said Hi and subscribed =)
I think ill stick with better vampires if you don't mind.
Belua Sanguinare is THE best vampire overhaul out there. Unfortunately, last I checked, the mod creator didn't/couldn't get dawnguard and the community was trying to come up w/a way to get it for him. I really look forward to seeing what they do with this mod once they acquire dawnguard, because I'm sure it's going to be as epic as they made vanilla vampirism.
Thanks for the reviews. I enjoyed the show, as always. Keep up the good work!
Belua is still one of the best vampire mods so far.
I'll return one day!
@@jakisthe We will be waiting for you then 🙂
Honestly I think BSR has it for me. I like the rank system a little more, as it takes much longer to progress, and is more under your control. But I think both mods are great and it is going to come down to what you want. BSR seems to impact my game more though. Being a BSR Vampire becomes central to my existence and must be considered in everything I do.
5:21 thats in vanilla skyrim
Guys, at this point (from what I could tell on the Nexus), this mod is abandoned. MM hasn't been on in (I think) around 2 years, and Jackisthe has been absent as well. It's a damn shame, but if you're looking for a vampire mod I recommend Vampiric Thirst :)
BSR is built around a lot of research through known Vampire lore as well as in-game lore. It is a very indepth marriage of it all. Taking damage while trespassing correlates to the lore of a Vampire not being able to enter a home without permission.
I really enjoy playing a Vampire. I always have. The most fun is playing a Stage 4-24/7. As it is AoS and thus, forces the PC to use the Illusion skill. BSR is a great mod that allows custom tweaks. This easily offsets the effect of DG on AoS.
It a lot of Vampire lore they cannot enter someones house uninvited. So with this mod if you do so, you start taking damage.
Yeah I began to suspect that last night. Thanks for the confirmation though.
I tried both Better Vampires and Belua Sanguinare and they are completely different from each other: I'd say Belua Sanguinare is an old-style themed vampire mod which gives the vampire classic weaknesses and makes its life more difficult than normal. It has plenty of elements and spells to discover while becoming stronger. Better Vampires is cool too, but it's not such an enhancement as BSR. So pick just one: classic vampire or enhanced vampire?
ok just wanted to say i think your one of the best mod reviewers in youtube i really enjoy watching your videos and i love that your foucsing on vampires i hope you would still foucs on it more espacially the dawnguard related ones one last thing i like to say is i liked better vampires more because for starters the feeding i noticed this overhual didnt have it (as much O_o ?) and i liked that you can customise the vampire effect on you anyway just wanted to say keep going man and best of luck
I think I will stay with Better Vampires in that case. While I do enjoy focusing on being a vampire, I would like to enjoy the main quest lines, and Imps More Complex Needs already adds increased vampiric immersion; though not as hardcore as Belua it seems, haha! I would love to see some of Belua's become modular though, the burning in sunlight and while trespassing, while being able to harvest hearts are all very interesting. and I'd love to use those. Maybe Better Vampires will include it.
you are the only time i would appreciate a commercial.
It's because in lore a vampire had to be invited into a house before he could enter so it makes sense for there to be some kind of penalty for going into a house without invitation without actually keeping you from being able to go places.
for those that dont understand the part of the mod that causes damage to you when you enter a house uninvited. traditional myth holds that vampires are not allowed into homes unless they are invited
Actually, if you turn on Sumo Mortalis to disguise your unearthly vampiric powers, it allows brawling (and the Companion quest), as mentioned in the manual :D
Ohhhhh you need both parts you are a savior. Now i can finally try out both and see if i prefer this over better vampires as well. Lol i do feel a little stupid for not looking at the problem in the right way. I simply thought that it said DG compatible version.
I love how you are now damaged when entering a house uninvited. True Kineship.
Probably the most lore-friendly (Through history, not skyrim) mod I've ever seen for vampires! o.O
can someone make belua sanguinare. on console
No one will make it on consoles except maybe for the actual mod author, so go ask him/her.
I agree we need it for the Xbox & the PS4
I apologize. That was the gist I got from the conversation on the nexus page for belua after DG came out.
It's still the best vampire mod, hands down. :)
Ahh, so that is why when I check the vanilla quest status it registers me as not being a vampire.
GOPHER!PLEASE READ ME! i was paying close attention during your lets play part 10 and 11 and i think that belua sanguinare does not replace the vanilla vampirism but instead adds a completely different and unrelated infection, so thats why your seduction power went away when you did a vanilla feed on the butcher. in theory, this means that you can use both vampire overhauls together. Thanks for reading.
It's a classic part of vampire mythos, that vampires can't enter a home uninvited. I suppose it's connected to their skill in persuasion and charm, so they could through that convince someone to invite them in.
True Blood has some pretty awesome vampire moments I must say.
for those who didnt knew, vampires never burned in sunlight until dawn of cinemas, but yet, it was wise to hunt at night
hahaha that charm skill is a Vanilla Vampire skill XD so it returns you to a regular Vampire Vanilla Style, though you likely know this by now
Gopher i'm pretty sure the 'Vampiric Suduction' is a power added by Dawngaurd and when you used it you chose "feed" there was no option for "BSR feed" and in dawngaurd when you feed you lose your powers. So im pretty sure thats why it went away :)
I played a Vampire in my evil Illusionist/Conjurer playthrough. But honestly unmodded it made almost no difference to how I played :)
I've heard that BSR is now terribly outdated, and it's creators have all but abandoned it. Would this mod still be a good choice, or would it be better to go with BV? Any input is appreciated. Thanks!
+WOWDKMWAH i know this is super late but BV is best because its has less bugs that i know of anyway
Still not a bad idea to give the mod a try at least. I know I am with my orc warlock character I'm making based off of Gopher's.
I was trying to throw a shout out to another RUclipsr, maybe it didn't quite come out right.
They do the same thing on Being Human (series on SyFy)
They actually used that trick to kill a large group of them by selling the house while they were inside.
IKR?!
The thing that I didnt understand with Vanilla Vampirism was the fact that when you feed you get weaker. How does that make sense! Loved this mod from the moment I saw it, but it is a lot of upkeep.
If I recall this is actually in effect in the vanilla game as well and as FatalKenshen mentioned, its a known holy metal hence its a no-no for unholy beings like vampires.
Check the documentation we give in the download files. Should be a very large PDF listing every possible option, of which satiation drain speed is an adjustable setting :D
GOPHER! PLEASE READ ME! I was paying close attention duting your dawnguard lets play of blood on the ice and i think bsr does not replace or remove vanilla vampirism abilities, which is why the seduction got removed. In theory, you could play with BOTH better vampires ( which replaces and improves vanilla vampirism) and bsr ( which adds completely new vampirism infection)
First thing you say "Don't even try this with better vampires."
You just knew thats what I wanted...
It's old Vampiric lore I think, BSR adds lots of lore from other Vampire stories, like Garlic hurting vampires, etc, etc.
Well, they are not supposed to be able to die from it, its supposed to force them out not kill them inside unless they've probably been in long enough, when Bill was kicked out of the house by Sookie, he started to get a funny sensation first and then a few seconds later he was being force fully backed up and then remember when he ended up holding on to the door siding lol, and then he got blown away from 5-10 feet from the house. It don't make sense for them to just.. die.
The vampires seduction power (which allows you to feed on people avake) isn't a part of the mod, it's part of Dawnguard (atleast I think so cause it's a part of some vampire sidequests) and that's why it disappears when you feed.
Since I ran out of characters before, second comment to just say thanks for the reply! Have a good one.
a nightingale with this stuff is awesome!
Who ever the chreater of this mod is he should give permission for someone to port it to consoles cause this does look like a Really well made mod
Well I am getting a new headset and soundcard first. Once I get those I think I may get a standalone condenser mic too.
No, standard european vampire lore. The sort of Dracula myth etc.
Yeah, due in large part to the "teen-romnacization" of them through sources like Twilight and Vampire Diaries. But I believe its games like Skyrim that bring some degree of respectability back to vampires.
I will try to find some, but without a Dawnguard character, it might not be that easy.
Its pretty common vampire lore that vampires cannot enter a human dwelling without an invitation. This of course would break many of skyrims quests so the taking damage was a good middleground
Yeah, I would do a werewolf playthrough, but people might lynch me if I abandoned Stiv :)
Have you even looked up the mod? You don't get weaker at higher levels, you get far stronger, but hungrier - meaning you need to feed more to maintain that level. It certainly seems to make more sense than Bethesda system of 'Drink blood to become a lot weaker'. But I guess different strokes...
Are you serious? The Silver hand in the Companion quests carry them. You don't even have to do the quests to encounter them.
The part of the mod where you take damage from trespassing, i think that's from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. As the Vampires in that show cannot enter a house where they are not invited into. Or it could be some sort of coincidence.
Yeah thats what I meant. I sometimes got bored and traveled back there for something to do.
I started out doing one, only got tempted into using a big ass mace instead :)
Yeah I am hoping someone makes a Heal Undead Seft spell :) Then I have to hope it works with BSR. Maybe I should just make that myself.....
You know, I had a grand idea for Vampires vs Werewolves...but I stuck with the vampires to start. I'm told there are some great werewolf mods though!
Gopher, don't let this be the end of DLC-less Skyrim mod videos, i cant afford Dawnguard and i am not going to pirate it
The Belua Sanguinaire Mod is amazing. Vanilla Vampirism just seems so boring after you play with it!
you know that the power that allows you to feed on people who are awake is the traditional vampiric seduction with a new effect in dawnguard
Hey Gopher, have you ever played Vampire the Masquerade : Bloodlines? Great RPG.
Anyway, nice vid. Tough time deciding between this and better vampires.
I think BSR is pretty balanced to be honest.
I don't know, maybe you traveled back to Gallows rock? I never stopped seeing them.
it's an honor for me that you replied on my comment
That's is a fairly nice gaming sound card so I guess you upgraded to something better. Mind if I ask what? :)
In vampire folk lore, vampires cannot entire a home without permission. Hence why they have the charm abilities.
I don't have another version to compare it to, but I think it's pretty good, especially compared to the other movies/shows on the on the SyFy Channel.
feeding on people under the "vampire seduction" spell was added as of dawnguard.
Hey Gopher, the charm attack doesn't disable the BSR Feed you just have to wait until they walk off and stop for a sec... hope this helps! :D
Thanks for the information,Skyrim on the Wii is amazing best graphics ever similar to 8-bit,Also the mods are insane. :D
You can also customize the options with BSR, and in fact there are more options to fiddle with.
@Gopher, First I just want to say I really enjoy your vids. They have lead me to some great mods that I have really enjoyed; so, thank you.
Second, I have a question. I have been debating on downloading either Better Vampires or Belua Sanguinare Revisited. Which have you enjoyed more? Both seem great, but I haven't been able to really find anywhere that compares the two. I was hoping that you could give your opinion since you have tried both now. Thanks for any thoughts you could give me.
I was also interested in this and looked it up. Apparently someones home is considered holy or sacred much like a church. So vampires being demonic creatures can only enter at the whim of the person living there. I also had a thought that since most people back in the medieval ages where religious types, i would assume they had their houses blessed by the town/cities church for protection from evil spirits. Much like religious families do today.
The werewolf and vampire vision mods you made can you make something similar to that for humans? I have realvison ENB with all bells and Whistles and many other mods installed and dungeons are way to dark. It would be nice to just hit a button and be able to see my hand in front of me without having to gamma adjust and mess up everything else. Does such a thing exist? or can it be done? maybe a ring or something we can wear to give us that vision.
is there any way off getting this mod for xbox??? (the vampire one) please respond if you know away!!!
When I get hungry, everyone notices...I'm more of a super mean grump than a vicious vampire, though hahahahaha
@GopherVids I had a bit of a novel idea, although I'm hoping that I'm not stepping out of the lore when I propose this.
Do you or any other modders believe it would be possible to make race-specific Vampire Lords? By that, I mean they dont have a one-lord-fits-all look to them.
I enjoy watching these types of mods (even though I dont own the game for PC), and figured a mod such as the one I mentioned would help in giving players a since of uniqueness about their character.
It's part of the mod, you can disable it, read the mod description...
Are you thinking about Twilight or something? Because this is The Elder Scrolls; where vampires are for the most part, heartless monsters.
Hey Gopher, any chance you could review Vampiric Thirst?
Given your liking of Vampire: The Masquerade, I think you'd really enjoy it.
Gopher is really good at moding he wauld do a very good job of potting this mod to the PS4 & Xbox One
Especially a shrine to Molag Bal. The creator of the vampires.
0:54 I miss that layout
Interesting. I've been wondering when a mod would show up that features classic lore about vampires. (i.e Garlic, entering uninvited, damage + special effects in sunlight, etc). Really helps nerf those OP bastards down to Werewolves. Is it compatible with Sacrosanct?
I agree with Wykdwolffie. I prefer the werewolf to the vamp. This is a great mod though. Tried it out for a while but you are correct, you really need to keep up to on the feeding. But it almost got to be more strenious than the actual game play. BTW GOPHER. Which kill mod do you use. I am currently using The Dance of Death. But it doesn't seem to give that real kill animation that I see on your videos.
thanks
Grim
Great vid as always.
One of the last frames had a screen capture of the Normandy from the MassEffect series, what mod is that from?
Guessing you made the same problem like I did. I downloaded the non DG version first and installed it, then I downloaded the compatability mod (cause its not the full mod, simply a small part to make the original mod compatible). Then you install the DG version and when you get the question to upgrade (replace) you click "No". So you have both installed, and then ofc put the DG one after in the load order.
Yea I saw the encore right after this he explained it, but thanks :)
Really? I had no idea, it seemed kinda weird at first. Thanks for clarifying buddy
I would love to see Werewolves sometime soon, the poor neglected beasts.
