Skin Dancer

how do you 'scab' an NPC skin though?

can you choose a different skin for each clothing level?

there are some that I really like which are not consistent within clans.

playing as VV or Venus...Mmm.

being sheriff would terrify the others!

Heeere Malky Malky..

reading about your relationship with that teddybear, Celacena, are you sure you haven't got some Malkavian connections anywhere? No regular feeding of insane peoples' wrists or similar...?

I remember this was the "first ever" screenshot they released, when they announced VTMB in production. Was this really completely cut out of the game? Or can it be unlocked somehow?

I just got back into Vampire Bloodlines again so sorry for the late response. That image was part of the first E3 demo they were showing in 2003. The same can be seen in the E3 2003 trailer.

Too bad

Too bad that it was removed from the game. :D
But obviously you don't really see Jeanette anywhere other than Santa Monica, so, if you got to sleep with her and all, it'd be cool if she showed up later in hollywood like that and trick you into doing something else for her.
I wouldn't mind. Would like the XP and it'd make up for chosing her over them both coexisting.
Or maybe even if they coexist it'd be nice to see her out in Hollywood. And she'd try to get you to do things for her again. And just who knows another chance for you to get with her anyway if you seduced her enough.
However that looks like V.V.'s place, the Vesuvius. Doubt Jeanette would have that kind of access there.

You must also realise that the artwork for the VTMB packaging probably went to the printers four to six months before the shipping date. It could well be that the scene in question actually existed at that time, and later got cut out for lack of time and resources. Or it may be that they had to cobble together artwork for the printers under a close deadline and just used what they could grab.

Printers schedule tight. Having an entire printing plant sitting idle for a day costs a horribly large amount of money. If the printer says, "Have it here by 9 AM Friday, or it won't be done.", then you get it there by 9 AM Friday - whatever it takes. Even if you have to learn how to fly.

It's not hard to believe that the printer had a deadline, and Troika had to meet that deadline, so they did the artwork to meet the deadline, whether it was accurate or not.
