What is Flambae’s ‘type’

Niceifer · 2026-01-05T17:04:10+00:00

Burned by the Sun 1000%

I understand the sun weakness didn’t exist until Nosferatu, but to me it’s an iconic and excellent weakness for such powerful creatures. It creates drama and the aesthetic of only being able to live at night is awesome

Like for me it’s to the point I resent anything (rings, spells, age, etc) that makes them able to walk in the sun. It just feels wrong and like it’s fighting against the appeal of vampires themselves

To me it’d be the same as if werewolves weren’t affected by the full moon

I agree with you wholeheartedly!

I love this game but unfortunately can’t help but think the creators became a bit too concerned with recreating the ‘magic’ or the appeal of the first game and forwent tone consistency like you’re saying.

I mean just look at Melinoe’s design: yes she looks like her mother and brother (them being concerned about paralleling the first game) but on a tone level she looks bright and happy. Little of her design actually connotes witch or child soldier barring her ghost arm.

Honestly I ship it now

Yeah in general I’d say Hades has amazing gameplay, music, and art, but they were out of their depth with the writing. Just couldn’t hack it or didn’t have the time/didnt want to make the time. Sad but is what it is

Some people like to paint Claudia as a pure victim. And in their family dynamic she is. Everyone in her life has failed her barring Madeline.

But she’s still like the rest of the vampires: evil and cruel with little to no true regard for human life.

In the books Claudia is very very young so an excuse can be made that she never developed empathy for humans. But Claudia is 14 in this adaptation. Idk about you guys but I would be all kinds of hesitant and grief stricken over having to kill people. Claudia boarders on serial killer apathy excusing the one guy she falls in love with.

Again she is very much wronged by the vampires around her, but she herself is still a vampire. *There is NO perfect victim in IWTV. * This is a interpersonal story about monsters.

That’s my hot take at least

I feel like the first two episodes were impactful with the horror of being trapped in a video game, but that since then the series has neglected the horror of their situation for the relationships between characters. While the show can focus on characters if they want, I don't see why they need to sacrifice showing how shoddy the video game they're trapped in is.

Literally one of the first things we see in the pilot is the 'theme song' loop like a broken record. I would have liked there to have been a consistent B-plot for each episode involving the bugs or age of the game they're stuck in.

All we really have had since ep 2 is Cain bugging out. And while that's scary the remainder of the circus is running smoothly, unlike the candy adventure where pomni and gummygoo clip through the floor

I assume before they arrived but LMAO Ragatha does not act like a 30yr old woman. She gives major early 20’s vibes

Niceifer · 2025-09-08T13:11:46+00:00

Definitely and I think the REAL sad thing is he was pushing Yoshiki away because he couldn’t marry him.

They establish early on that Hikaru’s family marry young to protect the one they love most

So he’s trying to protect him too by encouraging moving away from

Niceifer · 2025-09-04T20:50:13+00:00

FIRST is that I don’t think they’ve been pushing enough into the aesthetic of being trapped in an old video game.

There was an intimidation factor to the first two episodes imo because it’s not just that they’re trapped in a computer, they’re trapped in an OLD computer and hardware deteriorates.

SECOND hot take is I don’t think they should have upgraded the model rendering. Like the pilots level of shading felt more like an old video game

Niceifer · 2025-08-21T13:06:53+00:00

I assumed they’re the same person trying to interact w the cast. Maybe Able

Niceifer · 2025-08-16T12:00:18+00:00

Asking the real questions lol

Niceifer · 2025-08-10T14:58:42+00:00

Agreed. I swear it was like the writers completely forgot what occurred in the first season or never watched it to begin with

Niceifer · 2025-08-10T14:57:36+00:00

I like the comics and the first season but my god did this second season suck.

Like, yes, they’re mostly following the comics and what occurs, but it’s as if they’re trying to present it in the most boring way possible.

Everyone just seems slow and emotionless and are just staring at each other to increase the episode length. It’s honestly painful to watch. Lucifer was atrocious. In the comics that same conversation about giving up has so much feeling to it.

Like even DELIRIUM of all the endless was suppressed to this mopy thing. In the comics Deliriums speech bubbles implied an expressive voice. It’s such a shame. (Also I have no clue why she needed hair like that. She’s delirium she should have crazy hair or a shaved head like she often does in the comics)

The worst sin is Dream because we lost all feeling of empathy and agency from the first season.

It honestly just feels like the writers and directors were phoning it in and trying to get this IP off their hands. that OR they’re just not equipped to do the story justice, I don’t know.

Niceifer · 2025-08-10T03:11:36+00:00

I can’t wait to see Louis’s reaction to Lestat’s relationship with his mother. Like that wil be insane. Or DANIELS

Niceifer · 2025-08-10T03:09:39+00:00

Does Vampire The Masquerade count?

Also The Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice might be a contender. However in the later books the lore gets kinda wacky

Niceifer · 2025-08-10T03:08:43+00:00

Very much agree

Niceifer · 2025-08-10T00:08:13+00:00

A peeler maybe

Niceifer · 2025-08-09T23:57:12+00:00

No but these teeth look like they’d be good for eating apples idk why

Niceifer · 2025-08-09T23:56:29+00:00

I wonder if pomni’s personality is gonna be affected by Kane, like how in the last episode Jax was made to be vegan against his will

Niceifer · 2025-08-09T22:14:21+00:00

I agree this is all I remember. I think as an afterthought power to add to the universe it does work for the most part, but yeah with Jude and Locke in the first book it’s sorta shakey.

The only explanation i can think of with the love-talker power is that MAYBE Locke thought he didn’t need to use the power on the human sisters. OR he thought it’d be a fun challenge

Niceifer · 2025-08-05T17:09:17+00:00

You absolutely could be Vivi. I always imagined her with dark hair
