KI2 Unused
https://youtu.be/qTmqfT-WOPw?t=2m43s Unused animations discovered by Abystus in KI2 data, including taunts, humillations/dominations and some early FMVs. I hope that this viewer or the unused sprites get shared soon. --TheArcadeStriker (talk) 19:42, 11 June 2018 (EDT)
Chris Tilston
Here are my 2012 email exchanges with Chris Tilston, one of the designer and programmer for the game. I won't post my questions, I will only post his answers. Sensitive info will be redacted.
Hey Rey, Sorry for the slow reply. Yep I don't check the linked in mail very often. So although I did design all the endings etc for the story - it was a long time ago and my memory is not great Smile emoticon There is a very good chance that the extra endings didn't get tied in and the text was there for them. If I remember rightly we had a really bad deadline of January the 7th so some of us were working on boxing day to get it out of the door on time. So there's a very good chance not everything got tied in properly. If I could get at the code - i'd check and see what all the conditions were, but left rare over 2 years ago. Chris P.S. Looking at an old strategy guide- this is what I have....

Hi Rey, Yeah left Rare a long time ago - haven't updated my linked in deliberately as working on something secret! So looking at those endings I'd say they never got hooked up and made it into the game. Only way I could tell for sure is if I got hold of the KI2 source code, but that probably not possible. Hope this helps! Chris
Possible I guess. Would need someone who had more time available than I have! Even then it would probably get disassembled into assembler - and without comments - so would be tricky to figure out what is going on
Hi Rey, The vampire character was originally intended for KI2 - The background artist wanted to make a character because he was bored making backgrounds. After months and months of pestering he had an attempt at a character and unfortunately the quality wasn't good enough so we didn't use it. Chris
the basic stand and walk animations went in, nothing else I think.
This next one is in relation to an unused Killer Instinct 1 screenshot showing the game being called "Thriller Instinct")
Hi Rey, I definitely don't remember anything about those 2 pictures. Possibly an alternate name... Feel free to send the link through! Best regards, Chris
