If someone mods this awful MC out, will this mod be banned from nexus mods?

I used to mock androgyny in JRPG's, and just can't play this game with this MC...

So no male OR female protag option? Well thats fucken progressive isn't it? May as well be a mannequin.

No wonder they aint doing Toreador, too, thats right out the fkn window. Wouldnt want to have sexy vampires in a genre thats famous for it or nothing. Makes me want to facepalm so hard I fracture an eye socket.

Bruh, stop reading other people's nonsense, go to the developers diaries and read/listen. It literally talks about gender selection there, and there were arts with different kinds of faces.

I have been, not that I should have to as I get most of my RPG news from here - it's by far the best place Ive found to do so.

GIving you the benefit of the doubt however and I can find nothing but generic androgynous face? Chuck me the link with the example pics though trust me I would love to be wrong. Im not talking about the same plastic mannequin face we have been seeing in all the pics Ive found. A dude that looks like a dude or a lass that looks like a lass would be fine.

This is the best place to know about new or old RPGs.

But one of the worst when it comes to true, honest and deep opinions about a game.

It's 90% a continous whining or "The combat system is good/bad".

There is nothing more than combat system or useless, stupid and mentally disturbed arguments about how real life goes. A real life a lot of them doesn't experience.

Then, fortunately, there are good people.

"Clan reveal" would be a wonderful place to put some screens with different kinds of faces. Why would each clan be represented by the same FtM tranny, if there's supposed to be another option for the protag?

Anyway, the early concept art showed only one face that differed from the aforementioned FtM antifa tranny, and that was an effeminate-looking MtF tranny. It appeared very briefly in only one place and hasn't been seen since. In all likelihood, it got cut.

Your guess is as good as mine as to whether they'll keep the MtF tranny as the "male" option, or if it's another thing that got cut from this abortion of a sequel.

For me Blade 2 was even better, but i'm generally a fan of Del Toro. Unfortunately Hollyweird wanted Ryan Reynolds, WWE vampires and dog reapers so we got the disasterous 3rd movie.

Wesley Snipes was easily the worst thing about Blade 3. One of the worst "acting" performances I've ever seen. Which makes sense, considering he was high as a kite pretty much all the time.
He was also a complete cunt to pretty much everyone on set.
Extremely difficult to work with...

That probably has as much to do with the game's lack of dialogue feats, as the torries' typical "traditional" attractiveness. What would you do with them if you can't seduce in dialogue? They'd be brujah with prettier faces.

The only gender selection will be the pronoun.

I don't think I will be interested. My only interested is this section of the General RPG and I try not to get involved in any other thread/discussion.

This is hilarious. Not the fact that you won't be able to customize the face of the protagonist - you couldn't do that in Redemption or the original Bloodlines either - but the way they're responding to these questions.

Maybe they're trying to rush some customisation options in but aren't sure they'll have time so don't want to confirm or deny? I can't imagine why else they would respond like this, it's worse than saying nothing.

'Cause it'll be the same face for both genders with small tweaks.

That's what I'm betting on.

The vibe is "fuck off already, what else do you possibly want?" As from a random starbux chick or something. At the same time, seeing MALE and FEMALE is odd at this point. What a based devs.
