Train or spill the blood? The ideas about how having blood racing through your veins brings together so many in Vampyr-fascinating historical details built into the game.

I'm very curious about what you've got to say here as someone deeply critical of Vampyr and especially it's so called "romantic subplot" which to me felt like "man meets woman, what else do you need?" Something I despise in all media. Develop it or bin it.

[@milesmemory]

I generally feel similar but this just really clicked for me! There isn't much else to say besides the fact that I think they were a fitting couple whose chemistry felt genuine and built well as time went on. Maybe it's also because vampire narratives are so often paired w romance (interview w a vampire/twilight/dracula) that it just seemed to make sense in this world for me, but I'm also a hopeless romantic lol

​​​@@milesmemoryHa way back in the day it irked it utterly. Perhaps unhelpfully, the scenes with McCullum, particularly if you turned him, drew me in far more. I couldn't help but prefer an idea of enemies to lovers over the romance with Elizabeth that absolutely bamboozled me when their romantic scenes appeared. I love a good romance, especially featuring vampires but nothing half baked or barely attempted just because "the raw ingredients" existed
