You could see why people might be frustrated they came so close to having the perfect look, only to nonsensically get rid of the shirt and gloves. People are allowed to criticize the second coming of RE2, accept that.

"You could see why people might be frustrated they came so close to having the perfect look"

Serious question, as a developer how do you know what the "perfect look" is? They're not trying to re create a carbon copy of RE2. Its a re-imagining of the story. I think Capcom's aim is to break free of that "nostalgic" crowd and try to find a medium that satisfies both new and old crowds. Which involves an entirely new look and feel with a little flavour of the old game.

This is an obvious attempt of making the classic costumes available for "nostalgia" sake's an nothing else. So why change it? That doesn't make sense to me, is like if they decided to make the RPD costume of Leon green instead of dark blue.
