NL Vampires are sexy because that is part of their base concept. They are supposed to be representative of deviancy and society moving ever further away from classic social values, they represent the teenagers going out to clubs and raves at night, they represent the seduction of the youth into drugs and depravity. They are meant to be cool and sexy because they are meant to make the viewer interested in becoming one of them, as represented by the conversion of a human into a vampire. it is the temptation towards eternal life, money, and power, that draws the victim in only to have them cursed to never enter the sun again. (Vampires are pretty old. the Sun originally represented god and the ability to live a moral christian life). They are kind of the opposite of Zombies. where zombies represent rampant consumerism and the sublimation of individual thought to collective decision making, vampires represent the dangers of straying from traditional values and community, they represent how tempting sex, drugs, and rock and roll can be, even though in the end they lead you down a darker path. Whether you agree with this metaphor or not is going to vary from person to person, but that _is_ what vampires are meant to represent. and they have to be cool for the Drugs/Sex metaphor to work. Plus they've got that whole 'eternal youth in a perfect, unblemished, ocassionally-corpse-like body' thing going on.

I would absolutely rather fight a werewolf than a vampire. Like, what are the chances that you just _happen_ to fight them on the full moon? basically zero. and any other time they are just normal humans. And hell, with a lot of werewolfs they aren't even that tough in their werewolf form (compared to vampires), lots of them are literally just a wolf, and I know for a fact that I can take a wolf 1v1 at least 5/10 times.
World of Darkness doesn't really count though, If you are a normal human going up against _anything_ in the world of darkness you are going to be fucked. Plus it depends on the Vampire. The Antediluvians would kick a werewolf's ass. (and if we are talking _averages_, then Mage's and Changelings still kick werewolf ass).
Peyton Simon He seemed to be slowly improving in most areas, at a snail's pace, but there were a couple of times where he could of won a fight he was losing. The problem there being that he just completely ignored the orange glow on his screen, and the big prompt telling him to press Y.
The vampire question is interesting. It depends. Vampires don't need to completely drain people to eat. They could take just a bit. If it's the infections form of vampirism, just draw the blood with a needle into a separate container, then drink it. Or just try to get a hold of Blood Packs.
Halfswording is absolutely a real thing. If you grab a blade properly, especially with thick/armored gloves it's basically harmless. It was common practice for sword users to grab their own blade to get finer control to stick the point between gaps in armor.
I am a HEMA practitioner, halfswording is a real thing. Very real. Grabbing the sword by the blade and attacking with the hilt is one of the way to get around armour.
Have you seen "Dance in the Vampire Bund"? What the vampires try to build is an island where artificial blood is poured across its interior from the ceiling. And they made a public appearance on live TV.
The whole "sin and just confess to absolve their sins" is something we already learned in history but I can't seem to remember what exactly it was. Something about some king getting divorced and only the rich going to heaven.
Well no one told you souls would be this hard to plaaaaayyy *clapclapclapclap* Your build's a joke, it's broke - your summon's DOA! *clapclapclapclap* Feels like you're always rockin' crappy gear...

"living forever sucks because I can't see people that look younger than me and think 'I'm smarter than them'" Almost every point NL made in this vampire talk was bad
I love that we're seeing so many appearances from Boston Rob, they fill the SS in NLSS and Malf should always be here. Fit Josh in too cause fuck this channel without him. Yeah, I mean the channel.
How the fuck has NL not seen An American Werewolf in London? That movie is legitimately amazing and I'm honestly surprised he of all people hasn't seen it
Barnabas Collins (the original) is a vampire, he is cool. Strahd von Zarovich is a vampire, he is cool. Alucard and Dracula are vampires, they are cool. Therefore vampires are cool.
Half-swording is very much real. It's part of "harnischfechten" (armour-fighting), and though not usually relevant in recreational historical fencing these days (it can seriously damage people, even with armour), it was very relevant in actual wars. Not only were European swords less sharp where you'd hold them, but so long as you don't slide your fingers along the blade, you probably won't get cut if you grab it. Half-swording lets you use your sword like a spear-hammer, which is way better against armor. The sharp bit can be used like a spear, and the handle can be used like a hammer. There's a surprising lot of cool stuff in actual swordplay, stuff they leave out of the movies for some reason. Some of the only stuff that's not real is spinning, because that's physically and strategically ridiculous for the most part.
yo forgoing all music because of the possibility of the brown note is like forgoing *all* restaurants because of the possibility of bad food, and getting punched in the armpit can make you shit yourself, but pro boxers aren't really concerned with this, I just feel forgoing all music is too severe
I know this was for just shits and giggles but, this is actually a good point, if a vampire just needs blood, fresh blood, to survive why can't they just go buy it from like a blood bank or something? Where has it been specified that it needed to come right from another human being? And if this is the case that they can just buy the blood then the bite would only serve to turn other people into vampires.
in the Catholic Church there is a vow of silence for any and all confessions. however just going to confession doesn't necessarily mean that you will receive absolution. most Catholic Eastern Rites allow for married men to enter the priesthood, and there are also examples of this happening in the Latin Rite as wel, but it is uncommon. also in catholicism mastrobation is a sin
Me either. I actually have no idea what sound they're talking about that's so terrible. I turned my sound way up, and all I could hear is a click. If that's what they're complaining about, they seriously need to get over it.
You must not be able to hear that frequency, then. It's actually horrible. There are tests online to see how high your hearing range goes, and some people's range is much higher than others.
NL, I know what you mean about subtitles and comedy. It throws off the timing on some jokes also. I think you have to be choosy about what you have subtitles on for.
I'm pretty sure Rob's completely full of shit on that. I can't see any way that having to focus on more than just the basic fighting is better, unless you're getting carried by the rest of the team.
Tell Austin that in battle, it was not uncommon to see a fighter grab the blade of their sword and use the crushing force of the hilt almost like a hammer.
For the good of the people, I will share that if anyone goes to confession and the priest tells anyone what the said, the priest who tells what was said will get wrecked (heavily disciplined). (I'm not sure how serious of crimes this extends up to)
I can agree with Resident Evils getting worse, however the first one was far from bad. It's actually the only one I personally consider an actual Resident Evil movie. It's tense, has zombies and tells the story (albeit which isn't much) perfectly fine. They do get worse though, until the last two; where they stop trying to be this mix of horror and action, and decide that action would suit a lot better- and it does! The most recent one has a fucking awful story, but I wouldn't call it bad, it's entertaining, and offers pretty much everyone who's in to those sort of movies everything they want.
I actually looked this up on Wikipedia, there's a bit of cross-over. Something to do with the word "vampire" not existing for a period and the original vampires being grossly different from modern ones - so yeah kinda.

Did you read the right book?
QHero Hes getting their "base concept" which is Brahm Stoker, confused with that most teenagers think their base concept is, which is Twilight
I was trying to make a joke, sorry.
That's a VERY interesting way to sum up vampires, I never would've thought of them in that context. Not consciously, any way.

You didnt even show up to the test. You dropped out and sued the school.
About that "what if a vampire drinks semen?" thing, I think I saw hentai of that. +1 for over sharing.
That's probably how it works in Monster Girls.
I would absolutely rather fight a werewolf than a vampire.

Wertsir savage.
World of Darkness doesn't really count though, If you are a normal human going up against _anything_ in the world of darkness you are going to be fucked.
Plus it depends on the Vampire. The Antediluvians would kick a werewolf's ass. (and if we are talking _averages_, then Mage's and Changelings still kick werewolf ass).
Northernlion always gets shit for being bad at stuff. This NLSS he is actively trying to resist getting better.
Peyton Simon He seemed to be slowly improving in most areas, at a snail's pace, but there were a couple of times where he could of won a fight he was losing. The problem there being that he just completely ignored the orange glow on his screen, and the big prompt telling him to press Y.
If you're ever tempted to include a "If the other answer is..." quiplash answer, you might as well just safety quip because you'll always lose anyway
Half-swording is absolutely a real thing, and is absolutely necessary to punch through heavy armour with a longsword.
I'm pretty sure they were talking about mordhau, though, cause he said he hit him with the hilt.
The vampire question is interesting. It depends. Vampires don't need to completely drain people to eat. They could take just a bit. If it's the infections form of vampirism, just draw the blood with a needle into a separate container, then drink it. Or just try to get a hold of Blood Packs.
I thought vampires didn't eat blood. They eat the color red.
If you're being serious, that's just in adventure time
Shhh! Don't ruin the reference lol
Halfswording is absolutely a real thing. If you grab a blade properly, especially with thick/armored gloves it's basically harmless. It was common practice for sword users to grab their own blade to get finer control to stick the point between gaps in armor.
Blaine Drummond I'll believe that when me shit turns purple and smells of rainbow sherbert
Lmfao, they play for honour like a horror game - where Tai Lopez is like Jason or something.
I wish tai lopez was my boyfriend
I don't get how NL can be so completely awful and not know how to play anything besides isaac.... kind of really disappointing
I swear Ive seen some videos about a Tai Lopez who was like a billionaire who was into real estate.
Yeah, he is pretty much a meme.
In response to 21:22 The vampire Carmilla from the novel of the same name. was known as Mircalla, the Countess Karnstein.
I am a HEMA practitioner, halfswording is a real thing. Very real. Grabbing the sword by the blade and attacking with the hilt is one of the way to get around armour.
This does not seem to be XCOM 2
For Honor is a new mod to XCOM 2.
Makes sense
I don't want the government to legalize vampirism, but I'm okay with decriminalizing it.
Have you seen "Dance in the Vampire Bund"? What the vampires try to build is an island where artificial blood is poured across its interior from the ceiling. And they made a public appearance on live TV.

NL's willful ignorance of For Honor is painful.

Are you gonna do the new Gungeon stuff
So... I dont hear the sound from the lighter. Was it cut out or can I just not hear it?
1:23:40 Here you can pinpoint exactly where nl's sanity dies
In For Honor, an attack that looks like it's on orange fire is unblock-able. The raiders is one of your best ways to murder.
More For Honor! More! We need it!
How the fuck has NL not seen An American Werewolf in London? That movie is legitimately amazing and I'm honestly surprised he of all people hasn't seen it
For Honor looks really good, you guys should play more.

Did none of them watch Dracula Untold?
Knights used to hold the sword by the blade and smash the pummel on someone's skull.

no
Gonna be honest, the jinx scared the shit out of me, because I wasn't watching the video when it came up.
Semen vampire is a succubus/incubus. One is a demon lady, and the other is a demon guy with a massive, oversized schlonger.
I can agree with Resident Evils getting worse, however the first one was far from bad. It's actually the only one I personally consider an actual Resident Evil movie. It's tense, has zombies and tells the story (albeit which isn't much) perfectly fine.

Nl you gotta break their blocks my mans
rob is confusing succubi with vampires
Child-like imagination is something NL can never relate to either because he doesn't "understand" art :'(
To be fair, all NL understands is how to be a food snob.
Vampires are a form of succubus (literal sex demon) if I remember correctly...
