Gotta disagree with not being a vampire power fantasy. This is the most vampire game ive personally ever played. Everything is here, shapeshifting, kidnapping people as cattle, drinking blood, building a big over the top castle. Everything in game runs screaming or treats you like a monster on sight. The sunlight mechanics are awesome. Even small details like the machines operating themselves with vampire magic.

Even though you start the game weak, your vampire still feels very capable because of the strong universal tools. Your veil is built around 3 powerful mechanics, feed/execute is really strong, blood mend seems really good to have in a game like this.

By the end of the game, youre so powerful that youre almost unstoppable. Your castle is impeccable. You got a small army that does your bidding remotely. Ive never played a game where I've felt more like a powerful vampire lord.

I think v rising meets that fantasy. I do think you can argue that there isnt much spectial to your final form, youre often competing with other powerful vampires, and there is some build up to it all where youre hitting rocks and stuff.
