Long story short: I'm playing a Legacy game where the goal is to have the vampire and non-vampire members of the same lineage at odds with each other. Problem is that all the children are born vampires (well, they become vampires as teens, you know the drill.) I can't have a feud with mortals without the mortals.
So far there have been 11 babies born in my playthrough - all are vampires. These babies were born to several different couples. Note: all the couples had one parent who was a vampire and the other one was always a human. I read online that the probability of a vampire-human offspring being a vampire is 50/50, so in the name of mathematics all is possible, but 11 out of 11? Is there something wrong with my game or is it just super bad luck. I also know there's a lot trait that can influence the outcome, but I don't have it on any of my active lots.
Of course I can cheat some of the offspring to be regular humans, but I wanted it to happen organically. Now I "get to" choose who are one which side, and it's not nearly as fun as being surprised... (I also always randomize things like traits so that they feel more like individuals and so that I can't plan their whole life at birth.)
@Info-Broker-Guy I also have super bad luck with all vampire offspring. Mine are also always male vampires. Every single time. I had a first gen of 4 vampires, one was female, second gen both children were male and both vampires.
Different save 5 generations were male vampires, I finally cured the fifth gen so they were human afterwards.
I've understood it's a 50/50 but boy it sure didn't feel like it to me either.
@crinrict it sure does... just curious, has someone tested what is the case when a mermaid and a vampire have multiple children?
Because so far we know that it seems like:
mermaid + human = 100% mermaid, 0% human
vampire + human = 100% vampire, 0% human
So I am curious if the desired 50/50 chance is at least working when having the two occults have a child.
I will test this for sure when I have the time and let you know, but it might be in summer because right now I cannot. So I am just floating the idea here in case someone had already tested it or has the time and will to do so 🙂
This is exactly what is happening to me with mermaids. There is something going wrong with vampires and mermaids then. Its frustrating
Mermaid / Human combination here: I am currently on baby 6 and they are ALL mermaids.
