How can I "scratch the itch" of the urge to hunt and kill vampires? (lemmy.ml)

I've been reading Dracula, and it's truly horrifying. The Count is extremely vile and cruel and conniving and I yearn to see his demise (NO SPOILERS PLS). It makes me want to kill a vampire irl, and ensure that those fiends are no more. The problem is that vampires aren't real, so my righteous hatred and contempt has nowhere to go. So how can I find an avenue to fulfill my desire?

Lots here suggesting you do the Luigi thing.

If you're not game for that, I suggest playing videogames. I'm sure there has to be at least one about vampire hunting

Witcher 3: Blood and Wine

I am down for Luigi-type things but I'm just starting to gear up w organizing irl so that'll prob be a while

In terms of games, it feels like every game wants you to be the vampire and not many want you to be the hunter, which is a shame

The problem with vampire hunting games is they typically involve other themes in addition to vampire hunting. But if you're cool with that, then The Witcher franchise might scratch the itch. I'm pretty sure the Blood and Wine expansion is vampire heavy.

I will consider this, thank you

Castlevania? There are a few in the series were you play as Alucard, but mostly you're human fighting vamps.

[-] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 1 points 5 months ago

There is a remastered Legacy of Kain Defiance that came out this year. Maybe playing as a vampire will make him not so angry toward them.

What is lemmy even about man

I only post the best questions 😌

Theres a certain class of people who behave a lot like vampires. Maybe start there?

There we go, the only appropriate answer and I was about to say it.

Seriously folks Eat the Fucking Rich. They’re vampiric blights on the planet and society at large.

Who’s that guy who takes the blood of young men to be immortal and shot a missile at a girl’s school?

Sounds like an undead demon to me.

What is this post

[-] daggermoon@piefed.world 8 points 5 months ago

I think it's a post where someone wants to kill vampires instead of fuck them for some weird reason.

[-] sangeteria@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago

Why would you wanna have sex with such wretches

[-] daggermoon@piefed.world 5 points 5 months ago

Why wouldn't I?

But she has no soul and exsanguinates people. Major red flags

[-] Tolookah@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 5 months ago

Play RPGs? Either find someone who is willing to run a vampire hunting game, or run a game of vampires being hunted, so you can mow down the adventuring party, becoming the monster yourself.

[-] observes_depths@aussie.zone 5 points 5 months ago

Skyrim's Dawnguard DLC should do the trick. Oblivion also has vampires to kill.

I like this textual game.

Just got the "Sunlight" ending; this is really good!

[-] Urist@lemmy.ml 2 points 5 months ago

Play the Curse of Strahd D&D campaign. Strahd is such a great villain and very Dracula-esque. Though to be fair, victory is all but guaranteed...
