You guys keep going to back to these ‘well actually, the nautiloid did this so it MAKES SENSE that x, y, or z.”
No ones arguing the lore, they’re arguing that it’s poor art form to have the visuals of your game actively clashing with the narrative tone you’re trying to set. Or having your characters be basically walking exposition. So much so, that it even bleeds into their outfits.
For those of you who are English second language (ESL), I didn’t mean there was a literal vampire uniform. I was exaggerating to make the point that he was unmistakably a vampire wearing an outfit copied from any of the classic Dracula or vampire movies we watch here in the west.
If a child saw Astarion, they would identify him as a vampire without hearing him talk or knowing anything about him. I don’t know if that’s as obvious if you grew up in a place that’s unfamiliar with movies like Bram Stoker’s Dracula or Interview with a Vampire. Sorry if that hyperbole confused you.
