"Few creatures of the night have captured our imagination like vampires.
What explains our enduring fascination with vampires? Is it the overtones of sexual lust, power, control? Or is it a fascination with the immortality of the undead?"

Feel free to post any vampire-related content here. I'll be posting various vampire media I enjoy just as a way of kickstarting this community but don't let that stop you from posting something else. I just wanted a place to discuss vampire movies, books, games, etc.

Ok, forget whether it's a "favorite" and just tell me any video game you've played with a vampire protagonist.

There are plenty of games with vampires as enemies but I want more games where I get to be a vampire. Especially games where you can refill your health by drinking an enemy's blood. That's just a fun game mechanic. I think the only games I've played where you can actually drink an enemy's blood is probably Dark and Bloodrayne. I need more.

My obsession with vampires is a relatively recent thing. It was only when I tried finding a list of good vampire games that I learned VtM: Bloodlines is basically treated as the gold standard of all vampire games. Clearly I am missing out. I worry the gameplay will be clunky with it being such an old game but it sounds like I need to at least give it a try. Next time it goes on sale on steam I'll definitely buy it. Thanks!

GOG may be a better place to buy it, Steam isn't great at maintaining old games. AFAIK GOG has the unofficial patch applied.
