Yeah, with those portraits you imagine they're likely some gang or other group you can find in a shady bar and rather not piss off, fitting in with kine low-lifes and misfits, possibly pushing meth or heroin.

With that one from the blog post you think they're just some mentally disturbed college kids making photos of their soy lattes with an iPhone.

All of these edgy hobo/biker wannabe vampires really gives me appreciation for vampires like Issac and Strauss who actually bother to have a decent appearance.

La Croix too I suppose....but he's a little bitch.

Just compare the atrocious art in the new tabletop book or this sequel-in-name-only to these:

This is just Tim Bradstreet being on a different level of quality. Also, these are traced over real life photoshoots.

French vampiresses made me remember this



It's a PG13 trailer so you won't see the tight frenchie ass that Luc Besson got to tap. The trailer also reminds me of "Cleaver" from The Sopranos.

What a coincidence, I just watched this movie yesterday! :D

One of the few, if not the only one, that shows romance between a vampire and a human without cringe. The plot is not perfect, but the goddess Anne Parillaud, the predatory Robert Loggia and sweet gore make up for the shortcomings. The photography, or the visual aspect in general, make a great atmosphere and it's a pity that now the vampires are presented in a bland, purple and white color puke.

There's only one thing I don't understand about Innocent Blood

Why does a vampire use condoms?

Maybe Dhampyres are a thing in that universe?

Also, great movie.

That was my first thought (and my second thought, vampire AIDS). Although Landis probably just didn't think this through very well - non-fantastique authors don't deal with this sort of thing well.

There are two interesting facts about this book:

1. There is a PG-13 version of the cover (the image I can't paste is in the linked article).

2. It was created especially for the French market by Ludis International.

https://whitewolf.fandom.com/wiki/Le_Monde_des_Ténèbres:_France

Neither of those is interesting, tho.


Some people are interested in the history of the publishing market (or individual branches).
Why does a vampire use condoms?

Maybe they care about their partners :codexisfor:

Or they weren't regular condoms.

Just me or have they gone quiet on this? Came out of the lurkers hermitude partly because I was looking forward to tearing strips off this blazing dumpster-phyre but all the news dried up? The levels of mismanagement this project has seen is entertainment gold.

They said they'd be slowing down the dev diaries and class descriptions after the gameplay reveal.

I think it just occurred to them that they should be ashamed of everything they did.
