I don't mind it but it all depends on how his character is portrayed. Let's be honest, that "ballistics" line was pretty sleazy - but he was otherwise portrayed as a pretty suave, charismatic guy. If they lean more into him being sleazy the new look is great. If he's still meant to be charming I don't think it was a good idea.
I think he'd be received a lot better if they didn't have him doing a quasi-kubrik stare. The dude looks like someone who would ask every woman "where's my hug at"
I said it on my standalone comment: I like the new design better, that one actually looks like someone you might run into here in Spain. In fact, I've seen cops who looked kinda like that, so very accurate.
If they remove the ballistic line, then I'll feel like the redesign was completely wasted. New Luis looks like he would make comments like that and more
Man it would make even less sense if they were to remove his ballistics line given how greasy his remake design is. Though I guess it depends on whether or not Ashley’s ballistics will be visible to begin with
Okay, I am TIRED of pretending REmake Luis is unattractive. He is STILL HOT, he just looks SLEAZY as intended. He was too done-up and pretty-looking in the previous RE4 title. THAT is the hill I will die on!
He looks like a DMC character now. I don’t mind the new design but cmon, they didn’t change Leon and they barely changed Ashley, why change Luis so much?
Remember how in 2 remake Sherry got her classic outfit whenever Claire was in her classic outfit? What if there is a classic RE4 Leon outfit to unlock and it changes Luis into his original outfit too?
The only redesign I vehemently dislike… even Leon’s design is decent but I prefer the buffer leon in OG Re4 and the VA. RE2 VA makes sense for RE2 Leon, while RE4 Leon should be deeper.
I like the new design better. Minus the jacket (which I'm glad is like this, RE4 wouldn't be RE4 without some stereotypical absurdness), he looks more like a spaniard than the original design.
Idk, I love the new design. As a person who grew up with the original RE4 and has that game as a very special thing for my life, I think it's an improvement. Of course, it lacks a bit of the charisma of the classic, but that charisma is transferred to the voice and body language. I think that this was the perfect reimagination of Luis Sera.
Well, I hate the redesign in a good way (?). I guess it makes him look much less friendly and much more sleazy, which… he should be. Discovering if you can trust shouldn’t be obvious and him having that “sex offender” look definitely contributes to that.
I don’t dislike the new design, he looks like an actual person. However, I will say there’s something off about him. Not in a comparison, but in a “if saw him talking to a señorita alone I’d be a little concerned” way. I think it’s his eyes 😂
He looks like he could kill rats in his apartment with a belt.
Pootie Tang?
Lyle Rath?
Lyle, Lyle! They kidnapped the president’s daughter!
New Luis looks like he’s DEFINITELY been arrested for sexual assault. With old Luis its just heavily implied.
I shouldn't have laughed as hard about this as I did 😂
He kinda looks a bit zesty
As Luis is clearly very able, his choice of employer implies less than sterling reputation for some other reasons.
New Luis: Do you like jeez?
This is the funniest thing I’ve ever read on reddit
Weirdly enough I dig the new look. Surely it's not only me, right?

He looks like someone who’d corner you in a Spanish alley, but like, a classy one.
I actually like it too, I find it a bit more memorable than his original appearance
New look is way better imo. Really looks like a guy you could bump into in a bar in Spain.
I like sleazy, dirty Luis.
I like it as well.
It’s the same with new Carlos, in my opinion all the new remake designs are better
Nah, I dig it too.
I love it and actually prefer it over the original.
it’s great
I think his new look is great.
I prefer the remake too
Yeah I love it, he looks cool
I be honest he looks ten times better in re4 remake but I like re4 look better
You ain't the only one
I said it on my standalone comment: I like the new design better, that one actually looks like someone you might run into here in Spain. In fact, I've seen cops who looked kinda like that, so very accurate.
Too sleazy imo but then again maybe they changed his character for that to make more sense
There's just something about the smugness of his new look that makes me want to punch him.
I feel that way about the old design too
LOL. I'm actually one of them.
I'd let OG Luis take my kids to school, new one I wouldn't let near my kids.
I don't know, the original look gave me a Rockstar who sing a song about Church vibe.
It's the shirt. Slap some rhinestone crosses on it and it's a dead ringer.

I like the new look, it's more modern. Never understood why in the original he was designed like he lived in the 18th century, didn't make sense.
Fr fr, it would kind of make sense if he lived in the village originally but he didn’t soooo
To be fair, the whole village in the original was living like they were in the 18th century with the occasional machine here and there
Honestly, like Ashley's new design, he looks aged up and like a real person now. I like it.
True. Capcom's character designers feel like they're creating people vs. caricatures (visually).
wtf yall dont like it?
If they remove the ballistic line, then I'll feel like the redesign was completely wasted. New Luis looks like he would make comments like that and more
Mid
Eww of course not. He looks nasty as fuck instead of a smooth spanish charmer who you met as a European summer fling
No. Looks weird, uncanny valley. Outfit not as memorable either.
Man it would make even less sense if they were to remove his ballistics line given how greasy his remake design is. Though I guess it depends on whether or not Ashley’s ballistics will be visible to begin with
I mean not right 😭new Luis looks like he's not allowed near schools
Okay, I am TIRED of pretending REmake Luis is unattractive. He is STILL HOT, he just looks SLEAZY as intended. He was too done-up and pretty-looking in the previous RE4 title. THAT is the hill I will die on!
We’ll die on this hill together my friend
He literally looks dirty and greasy 😭not to mention that voice....
Woman
I don't vibe with a sleeved Luis Sera.
Now this is an issue with the new Luis I can get behind
Yeah, I agree. I can get behind the rest of the design, but I think the vest was a better look than the jacket.
Dude the new design is super good. Ppl just be hating smh.
He looks like Jake Gyllenhaal. I don't see the issue.
I love his new jacket so much. Kinda miss the long hair going over his face but other than that, I really like new Luis.
New Luis looks good what are y'all on😭?
I love the new design to death
Yeah honestly he’s still hot as fuck lmao
Old : Oh my, santa papacito.
Santo papasito You psicópata
I think part of it is they keep giving us really weird angles and lighting on his promotional images. Hopefully he’ll look better in game? Hopefully…?
His OG looks like a gay pirate
I like the og luis but I LOVE the new Luis
I don’t like the new one’s eyes
Love the new book
It's the opposite for me
I honestly prefer the new look. The original didn't really do anything for me honestly
Complete opposite tho
They both sexy
I like it, but it's not luis
He looks like a DMC character now. I don’t mind the new design but cmon, they didn’t change Leon and they barely changed Ashley, why change Luis so much?
Because his old design sucks
his original appearance is too classic. they didn’t elevate the design at all and just made him look more “normal”
westernized capcom L
This is correct
At least he actually looks Spanish in the new one. I only ever saw Viggo Mortensen/Aragorn (not that that’s a bad thing) with the old Luis.
They made him look more like a sleezball- but it's fitting
Wait did people find him charming? Maybe it's cause I only went back to play way later, but dude gave me creep vibes.
I don't resist changes but sleazy characters can be entertaining since they're not real.
He bears a resemblance to Nikolai when he’s brooding or smiling, especially the latter.
Agree. New look is better.
I like the new look, gives me "Im in soon deep shit and I'm somehow keeping it together" vibes, get me?
New Luis just fucking sucks.
Uhh. His personality is exactly the same. It speaks BALISTICS
What…
I just realized they made his skin darker
Bai Gawd it's Seth Rollins!
Don't worry some modders probably already working on a classic remake skin
Remember how in 2 remake Sherry got her classic outfit whenever Claire was in her classic outfit? What if there is a classic RE4 Leon outfit to unlock and it changes Luis into his original outfit too?
I don't really mind his new model or face. I just miss his old vest. always thought it looked cool and fit him very well.
I like the new look. The sleaze is much appreciated
"My missing señorita" - Yep, you're getting the taser, bro - lol
I prefer the old look. I feel the same way about Salazar.
I think, nuSera Is FUCKING hot. Cant wait for rule34
Give me ballistics or give me death Luis
He looks like younger version of Hank, from detroit become human.
His new look is um ok I guess. I suppose he actually looks like he's been stuck in a village full of bug brained loons now.
Honestly, I’m not sure that there are any redesigns that I don’t prefer over the original
He still went back in the labs to get the pills for Leon and Ashley.
new luis is better
Pretty much my reaction in a nutshell.
Hot take. He looks fine?
they better not cut the ballistics line in the remake
The remake version looks so different from the original that they are basically two different characters.
Both are good imo. Don't get why the redesign gets crapped on :(
The only redesign I vehemently dislike… even Leon’s design is decent but I prefer the buffer leon in OG Re4 and the VA. RE2 VA makes sense for RE2 Leon, while RE4 Leon should be deeper.
They made him actually look like a Spaniard with the new design tbh.
New design>old
They did kinda fuck up the design of Luis a bit huh.
New one is brown
He has the uncanny valley to his look now. Before it was stylised, and it was so silly he became incredibly charming and fun with it.
I like his new design😭
Ugh… he was way better in the OG 😒
Well yes,a sleazier looking Heisenberg in a dollar store jacket is a pretty far downgrade from the original
I don't know his new design is growing on me
Lewis….. LEWWWWWWISSSSSSSSSSSSS
I love the new design,looks dirrrty
I like the new design better. Minus the jacket (which I'm glad is like this, RE4 wouldn't be RE4 without some stereotypical absurdness), he looks more like a spaniard than the original design.
he looks fucking hot, yall crazy
You hit the nail
I prefer the original design, but the new Luis fits the remakes. I think he looks great despite my preference for the OG
Idk, I love the new design. As a person who grew up with the original RE4 and has that game as a very special thing for my life, I think it's an improvement. Of course, it lacks a bit of the charisma of the classic, but that charisma is transferred to the voice and body language. I think that this was the perfect reimagination of Luis Sera.
My compadre luis went from looking barely hispanic to being a bollywood actor
New design looks like a crackhead lol
Well, I hate the redesign in a good way (?). I guess it makes him look much less friendly and much more sleazy, which… he should be. Discovering if you can trust shouldn’t be obvious and him having that “sex offender” look definitely contributes to that.
The new designs fine, don't know why some are complaining
I also really hate Leon's new jacket design it looks terrible compared to the original. I mean Leon overall looks way too skinny in the remake.
I don’t dislike the new design, he looks like an actual person. However, I will say there’s something off about him. Not in a comparison, but in a “if saw him talking to a señorita alone I’d be a little concerned” way. I think it’s his eyes 😂
