Well, according to the canon, Jill was kidnapped and ended up changing. You can call it absurd, unnecessary, or just a shiny new object all you want. It is what it is. People can either accept it and move on or complain about something that still doesn't change what the character is about in the first place (as I said, it makes her more interesting). And considering the amount of outcry and ridicule Chris got when the first promotional images of him all bulked up were released, I would indeed say that the RE fan base is highly concerned with the aesthetics of a character just as much as anything else. And he was his own man.

It is to be accepted that people are still going to find something to harp on, plain and simple. It's best to mostly just ignore it rather than continue the tirade and fuel their fire. Chris' physical appearance changed, yes, but it was indeed by his own free will. Jill never had that that choice, as it was taken away from her. Had she ended up dying, that would have been a huge difference than what it is now, since she'd have died free rather than live a slave for several years following. I'm not saying she should have died, but most of what occurred after the events in LiN seem rather distasteful and ill placed.

In the same token, there was no need to over analyze something that I'm fairly certain most people didn't even think about in the first place (which you also admitted). At the very least I am trying to understand why people think the latest Jill isn't considered the real Jill and how her shooting Tyrants and cerberus out of her mouth makes more sense. At least there's a reason for Jill in MvC3 to be so physically amped up. Not to mention everything else is simply your opinion so I'm just going to agree to disagree. Jill is probably my favorite character in all of gaming and I think what ensued after LiN made her a better character and even more likable. She had very little in the series that made her remarkable in the first place except for a certain event midway through RE3. But then Leon came along and dominated an entire game alone while being infected.

If there's no need to over analyze something, then why are you questioning it at all? Either move on, or don't get so worked up when someone else gives their take on something. It's not all that difficult. If you're trying to understand, then take in the more complex meanings that potentially are behind the "why." It's more concrete then someone saying "because." I never said this was the definitive answer, merely a different view on it. Deep breaths...it's all good.

Because I can? And no one seems to have a decent answer either. It just seems like bias, and I hate that. Perhaps they have a good reason and I give people the benefit of the doubt. This whole real Jill thing is no different than when someone's favorite band changes sonically, and then they don't consider them the same band anymore. If you want something that hits closer to home, its also no different than when old school fans disregard recent RE games and don't consider them a part of the series. It seems more like needless bias rather than something concrete. I think it just boils down to people abhorring change, plain and simple. Your analysis of the situation probably doesn't even apply to the majority of the circumstances. She is still Jill Valentine even if she is brainwashed.

If you can, so too can everyone else. Sometimes the exertion of more critical thinking is absolute as opposed to the usual simple minded responses that are often brought upon by those who have just entered the fray, or aren't capable of understanding in the same capacity. While change is necessary and often times good, there are also other times where a certain other philosophy should be lived by. If it isn't broken, do not fix it.

Some guy hacked the PS3 version of the game, which contains data for an unfinished version of Jill.

I bet people will completely skip over the "unfinished" part and just start whining that they are being ripped off and the whole content is already on the disc. :X

RE5 versus all over again.

I remember how much of a debate there was over whether Versus was already on the disk or not. I mean, other than Activision and maybe EA, isn't Capcom notorious for nickel and diming their consumers for DLC? SF4 was pretty bad with the alternate costumes, but I get the feeling MvC3 is going to be worse. MvC3 was out for like 10 hours before they released pictures showing STARS Chris as an alternate costume.

Either way, the game doesn't feel complete to me without Jill. Chris is really fun to play as and Wesker is pretty disappointing to me. But I need Jill... like nao. I'm still incredibly paranoid/unsure whether those who weren't able to get a copy of the collector's edition will still get the characters on the same day, if at all.
