Really good point. I don't mind so much as long as they give me story. No one will ever love every character design anyhow.

I like their look. And I think that if they are indeed reused assets (we can't know that until we play the game) then it is a very smart strategy on their behalf, simply beacause when you will pick up the controller the game will feel familiar gameplay-wise. It's the same thing that happened with Injustice, when I picked it up and played a little the controls felt familiar. Same thing is gonna happen here.
