You're absolutely right, but it could rewritten into something as retarded as "Phyre woke up with an earpiece". Think... Doyle from Far Cry 1. ("DOYLE, MY ARM IS TURNING GREEN!")
Changes have definitely been made. If you go back to August 2024, they talked about how the game was being delayed from late 2024 to early-mid 2025. Among other things:
>The extra time gives us an opportunity to adjust certain areas, such as Fabien, and incorporate other community feedback.
>We will also use the time to expand the game’s story, and now Bloodlines 2 will have more than twice as many endings as its predecessor.
Something is definitely amiss if you read some of the older articles that refer to Fabien as a thin-blood.
>The other half of the equation is Fabian, a thin-blood vamp who’s mysteriously trapped inside Phyre’s head, serving up both commentary and context to the now-unfamiliar world. Thomas describes the character as an “anchor” to the modern world and a “compass” for the player - should we choose to listen. Phyre won’t understand the new world order or how phones work, for example, so Fabian could just be our best friend.
(I can never spell Fabian's name right. Fuck it.)
Before he was a thin-blood, now he's a Malkavian and also a detective... So...
Okay, so I just skimmed Reddit and found a post from the community manager:
>He was [thinblood] an earlier version, but one of the things that we've reworked is that he's now a Malkavian. :)
It seems plausible that they've scrapped the whole voice in your head angle and instead he's just a vampire detective that you have phone calls with. That seems possible.
