Resident Evil Village’s DLC Was Ruined By Ethan Having No Face

The Resident Evil Village DLC Shadows of Rose tries to create an emotional Winters family reunion, but Ethan’s lack of a face ruins the moment.

there's nothing special about how he looks. And I'm sure it was laziness on Capcom's part.

How is it laziness, the face was modeled? I think it was a deliberate choice to make it that way since you never saw his face in either 7 or 8. Why show it now?

why not?

Well, like the reason I stated before is they always hid his face. Think of it like all the ways the Halo games hid Master Chief’s face in the games. He’s taken his helmet off in cutscenes and they go out of their way to hide it (sans the tv series).

It’s the same with Ethan. They never showed it and that was deliberate. Even with third person they commit to that deliberate decision. Also, it’d be more work to hide the face in third person than show it. They’re keeping with the continuity.
