You mean to tell me a concept that wasn't used for one project almost made it into the next. Something like that never happens.
Never said nor implied. You are assuming. Try and think harder next time.
In the 1990s, video games didn't have one kind of stock outfit that was used again and again.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! You must really have your nostalgia goggles on too tight. Don't get wrong, the 90s and 2000s had plenty of unique outfits and characters designs in video games. Japan especially, but their plenty of games that followed templates, trends, or design and fashion choices in vogue or were the style at the time. Sometimes for the better, and some times for the worse. Every decade has had this. It's only a problem now, because you don't like change and want nearly everything to stay the same with little change.
They care about a vocal minority of people who will come out and complain if certain types of clothing are chosen. They're afraid of getting that kind of attention for some reason, so they won't even experiment.
Don't blame it on the "SJWs" or overly sensitive biatches that don't bother with gaming in the first place. We call that the cowardly scapegoating. Capcom did so just to experiment with different ideas, and use concepts they did not get a chance to use the first time around. This is nothing new as Capcom has always done shit like this. You did not bother to notice until now. You know how many times they made RE4, only to drop the concept and it becomes a new game/franchise? Or is saved for another RE installment. Hello
Devil May Cry and
Haunting Ground!
The costume flair is still there in the games, if you bother to fucking look. See
RE8,
DMC5, or even
Street Fighter V. Now
DMC5 takes some elements from
DmC (2013) of keeping Dante and Nero's outfits semi-grounded, but the same can't be said of V's, Vergil's, Trish's or Lady's outfit. And even then, Dante and Nero still act like their over-the-top and hammy selves.
The closest Capcom ever got to "pandering to the SJWs" was censoring the ass shots of Cammy and R.Mika. The SJWs had nothing to do with that one, and it was complaints from fucking ESPN of all networks! This was when Capcom was obsessed with pandering to the "professional sports/fighting game" crowd instead of making a fucking fun game first and foremost! ESPN certainly has no right to complain and comes off as very fucking hypocritical, so they can fuck off even harder.
There is also, the minor censorship of Lady and Trish's ass with the lens flare effect, but that was only on PS4, because they were afraid of Sony's dumb ass policy, even though both women are adults. Lady is in her damn 40s. Capcom later patched it out to make the scenes uncensored again since Sony clearly did not have a problem. I remember some dumb random yahoo on YouTube refused to support the game, because of "censorship". Even though the dumb ass did not have a PS4, had an XBOX One (meaning the scenes are already uncensored), and PC version did not have the "censorship" either. It's dumb asses like him, that are not making gaming better. Especially if they refuse to support game that had sequel gap for the whole decade. People like that usually don't care much for games to begin with, and only want their T&A; nothing else matter to them. Shows pathetic and idiotic certain people will choose to be for the dumbest reasons. That's not taking a stand; that's being a whiny, punk-ass biatch. Jokes on him;
DMC5 is the best selling game in the franchise now. Capcom got their money, so his "stance" means nothing in the grand scheme of things.
