You can find her cell phone in the Church right before/after rescuing her (she also has a comment regarding it). A hot pink, 1st gen. Motorola Razor. They definitely did their homework for the time period!


BetterThanStarlight

I laughed when i saw it on the way to her room in the church, then when we left on the way back i looked at it again and she said “i just bought that one, too” 😭😂


SuperFightingRobit

Or you know the programmers were in high school, middle school, or college in 2004.


The_Kruzz

The nerds grew up and changed the costumes to their fantasies this time.


SuperFightingRobit

Tbf, I think this is way more appropriate than Dallas cowboys cheerleaders.


C0nvinced

Dude that shit gave me life, I sent a pic of it to my old high-school buddy lmao

Acting like a bitch, making Salazar frustrated.


UltraFRS1102

and you fall, and you crawl, and you break some floorboards and you take what you find, and you turn it into ammo.... ​ (meh couldn;t make it sound right xD)


ElvenNeko

And you fall, and you crawl, and you break some barrels And you take what you find and just stuff in suitcase Looks like you, honestly, suck at organizing...


z0mbiebaby

Leon’s worried it’s not just a phase.


IanMazgelis

I'm telling myself Saddler gave her the outfit she wears in the game and that she couldn't wait to get back to UMass Boston and dress like this again.


ass_assasin

Boston always gets a shoutout for the worst reasons possible and I love it


T-408

From the OG, I always assumed Ashley had gone to Harvard or MIT (as a Mass native myself). Does the remake tell us she goes to UMass?

oliversurpless

Could be Wellesley; the best known of the Seven Sisters?


SquireRamza

well most Ivy league school admissions are legacy or "My dad bought the school another administrator building" types. So I could totally see the President's daughter being accepted just because, well, would you want the President of the most gun happy country on the planet angry at you?


Aws___

i always just assumed that’s what she wears in her own time but as “the president’s daughter” she wears stuff similar to her default outfit


CleanLifeCleanLiving

What's worse is that she'll grow out of it and become a Hello Kitty girl.


SayaV

I know someone who went exactly through that transformation.


Moist_Professor5665

There's two ways of life for the Emo: You either lose the eyeliner and hair bangs and become a Casual, or you double down into the Hello Kitty girl/Punk phase.


6fingered_devil_hand

Big Ol' Oof.

emilymartin99

The game takes place in 2004, this is the most appropriate costume I've ever seen. All that's missing are some Three Days Grace/My Chemical Romance pins lol


ReinersWillToLive

Maybe with a dash of Linkin Park? Also, this isn't all that relevant to this post, but Pieck Weed


emilymartin99

I want to kill myself (and Saddler)


uhln

Reiner moment


Rickback37

If she had a Linkin Park t shirt I would c*m (I know it sounds fucking gross but theyre one of my fave bands)


ReinersWillToLive

It's not gross, Rick. I would also arrive to and or at one of their live concerts if I had the money and or chance (:


Adventurous_Being_61

I mean, Chester probably cant hit the sustained notes anymore.


TCG-Pikachu

It does


LionsOnTheShore

Best band ever.


BenjaminCarmineVII

It's the same year Three cheers for sweet revenge by My chemical romance came out. One of the best albums front to back I've ever heard. Man 2004 was poppin dude


SpacePirateKing

I feel called out by this comment.


blitzbom

I graduated in 02. I absolutely would've been into this Ashley.


snowman1940

I hope a modder on PC can add those pins, or even skin over some logos.


Didact67

Hot Topic Ashley.


PliskinBOI

Almost like the game takes place during peak Y2K years


ThatTinyGameCubeDisc

Her pink Razr phone proved it haha


Alex_Yeek

I kinda forgot the game was supposed to take place in the time period those phones were the sickest shit ever and I got whiplash when I saw it lmao


leftshoe18

My wife fucking lost it at the phone. lol


hectorduenas86

2004-2005, 6 years after 1998


cloudbustingmp3

an icon with an iconic phone, we love her for that


Academiral

She has MCR, Good charlotte and Paramore wallpapers by the dozen in there


[deleted]

Not quite yet for Paramore. Their first album was july 2005. I got a loading screen that said RE4 remake is fall 2004.


Philkindred12

I laughed when I saw that, my own mum had one of those, and in that colour too *Hello, Moto*


hectorduenas86

I’m amazed it cannot be used as a weapon… maybe she should’ve gotten a Nokia


TCG-Pikachu

The /Scene is /Edge-y


UltraFRS1102

and have it shoot out pixel "snakes" xD


EnvoyOfEnmity

This seems like a 2005-2012 sorta vibe. Scene, or whatever it was called.


TheNullOfTheVoid

It was scene, which was also part of the alternative vibe which included emo, goth, grunge, punk, metalhead, and sometimes the hair metal crowd and later the whole post-era. My favorite was post-grunge specifically but emo, punk, scene and goth were also pretty fun at the time. Once I beat this game, I’m keeping Ashley in this outfit for every run afterwards, and Leon will stay in his Villain outfit as well unless I’m feeling some kind of way and switch it up a bit.


emilymartin99

>and Leon will stay in his Villain outfit as well unless I’m feeling some kind of way and switch it up a bit. I'm eagerly waiting for the V from DMC mods for that costume


Dragmire_Afterlife

Feeling some kind of way and switch him to his romantic look


Polymemnetic

Started earlier than that. There were girls like this all the way through high school in my graduating class, and I graduated in 2005


leftshoe18

Scene was definitely around prior to 2005 (and also still around to an extent) but I don't think it's wrong to say it peaked in that mid-to-late 2000's era.


EnvoyOfEnmity

Emo is still a thing, so that doesn’t surprise me.


WastelandGinger

NecroCorey

Damn this one took me way back.


facism_enjoyerx

I just had AOL instant messenger flashbacks.


D3dKid98

No thanks, bro!


TheVeilsCurse

I don’t care about the name of the costume. I’m just happy that they included a peak 00’s scene look.


OldWorldUlysses

if you give her the red hair attachment on top of this outfit she becomes Hayley Williams from paramore


mattpkc

This is exactly what my ashley looks like its great


No-Advertising-5569

I had no idea ashley was a punk girl😂


TheNullOfTheVoid

Some of the people that we consider the most “high class” tend to rebel the hardest sometimes


SuperFightingRobit

Seriously, with the sorority stuff on her phone, I'd expect a costume with short shorts, a huge t shirt, and UGGs.


Dragoran22

'Cause i'm just a teenage dirtbag Baby...


Academiral

She was unironically listening to punk-pop when she got kidnapped. Bet


[deleted]

tommy_da_tomato

It's totally time period accurate tho. It's 2004


crlos619

"engage in all defenses and get this a girl a Jack Skelligton t-shirt "


Total-Tortilla

She looks like she was posting the next chapter of her Invader Zim slashfic to LiveJournal right before she got kidnapped


TimedRevolver

To everyone whining: this is accurate. The game happens in 2005-2006. This fashion was in full swing during those years. I know, I personally saw girls dressed like this.


C0nvinced

Agreed this was my type of chick back in 05 lmao


NecroCorey

No kidding. I was all over this girl in highchool who dressed exactly like this. The green checkered belt hanging off the hip is fucking **chef kiss**. For /u/dragonsanddinosawers you know who I'm talking about.


ArvoCrinsmas

To everyone whining: *You aren't forced to use it.*


ZubatCountry

leon halp :3


Hexel_Winters

Can you imagine the Secret Service surrounding her during a My Chemical Romance concert


finalicht

Why else do you think they hired Leon.


claud2113

Cursed how? I would PREFER this


ForsakenMoon13

Yea this one is my favorite one. It has actual personality. Her default outfit has "my dad wants me to look professional so I'm dressed like a 40 year old librarian" vibes, the other deluxe outfit is like "this mad cult made me wear a traditional dancing outfit for some reason", and then this outfit has the "I'm on my way home from college and looking forward to being able to relax and wear/do what I want for a few months" vibes. So its the most fitting one available so far.


Porpoise555

This brings me back to the old days of smoking weed after school with girls like this and listening to slipknot. Good times


Academiral

remember the chorus of Duality? You know... That could be on one of those scattered notes in game, and it would fit 100%


Tbar6787

I push my fingers into my, EYYYYYYYYYESSS!


boomkinburger

IT’S THE ONLY THING THAT SLOWLY STOPS THE ACHE!!!!


Hydrasteryx

True! Love that song


Vainslayer13

Only cursed when you're too close. Kinda like look at old photos as an adult and going, "Ugh. I can't believe I thought that looked good."


claud2113

I'm probably biased because this look was the thing in my formative years, so it basically influenced my interest in women for the rest of my life


DiscountJoJo

oh god the awful mix of colors is peak Scene


Jebus98

So instead of: “LEOOOOOOON! HELP!” It’s: “Leon… WHERE ARE YOUUUUU… AND IM SO SORRYYYYYYY”


C0nvinced

Lmaooo yess


coolsviIlesucks

They definitely nailed the time period


Sprizys

Emo Ashley


formeldahydehuffer

I love emo ashley


markedmarkymark

Wdym cringing? That's peak fashion, we've been downgrading it ever since, bring that back man, and Ash's killin' it!


ranfall94

I dig it don't get alot of the hate honestly bit whatever


Emo_Femboy_28

I think it probably comes off as jarring to the people who were/are unfamiliar with the whole Scene thing (probably never came across a scene kid in the 2000s) and think it's ridiculous, even tho it was a real thing


ranfall94

Yep as someone who played 4 on GameCube this fits for me, also people saying it's something that she would not wear are they saying she wears full plated armor?


SuperFightingRobit

Yeah. She could listen to his kind of music.


TimedRevolver

A lot of people hating it were also probably born in the early 2000's. So they weren't aware of anything but shitting themselves when this fashion was a thing.


Emo_Femboy_28

Yeah, looking back it was popular to look down on scene kids and call them cringe, lots of negative pre-conceived ideas and stereotypes enforced by the media (and some problematic members of the scene) such as self-harming, being childish, etc. Didn't help at all Plus it's easier to hate on something or someone that stands out


DudeMemeLmao

No, i'm very aware of the scene culture as I grew up with it. I don't hate it, It actually looks very good with the red hair accessory. But the blond clashing with the purple is kind of ugly and for casual, I never really thought of Ashley as being a scene kid in the first place. I mean she's a sorority girl in the remake and in the original she seemed like a real daddy's girl. Idk, just didn't really fit casual to me.


Emo_Femboy_28

I get it, OG Ashley seems like the type of girl that would have made fun of scene kids tbh


Praydaythemice

Is that an off brand A7X tee Ashley’s is wearing?


mahiruhiiragi

I lowkey like the old 2000's hot topic outfit. Not a fan of the hair though, but it's mostly just I don't think blonde hair looks good with highlights, unlike darker hair colors.


ArvoCrinsmas

Not sure if there are any to obtain without the extended treasure map from the Deluxe Edition, but there are a couple hair colours for Ashley you can grab, a red one right before the castle and I'm aware of a green-ish blue one too. It works on alt costumes and overwrites the haircut on this outfit with her default one, just in a different colour.


BostonianNewYorker

He was a Boy She was a Girl Could I make it any more obvious? He was an Agent She did College What more can I say? He wanted to rescue her She'd never tell Secretly She wanted him to rescue her as well But all of the Ganados stuck up their nose They had a problem with Un Forasteros


MagpieHush

Her Moira Cosplay


JPSILVA1893

I love scene Ashley


OfficeGossip

The kinda girls I liked back when the original game released.


C0nvinced

Same but now my wife is alt and has a bunch of tattoos so I guess I just matured in taste but still similar lmao


mendia

I think you mean blessed? It's her best costume


Academiral

At least she doesnt CLANK when walking


IWillFlakeOnOurPlans

Loooool


RogertheAlien86

This has to come from the same capcom design team in charge of Juri’s schoolgirl costume and Poison’s halloween costume in Street Fighter 5.


ComfortablyNomNom

"My Chemical Romance is the greatest band ever dad, why cant they play at your inauguration???! Pleeeease???"


CreativeUsername328

Man for some reason everybody in this comment section is annoying as fuck to me. As a friend of a ton of emos and scene kids, they’re all cool people who are into music, it’s not really even a phase, it’s the same as listening to punk, metal, or any other genre and dressing the part. I’m more of a metal and punk guy, but I like some emo, so I tend to go for a mix.


C0nvinced

Yeah I was emo/ scene when I was a teen now I'm more of an old metal guy lmao I only said cringe because it flooded me with nostalgia of being a kid but I personally have always loved the style and still listen to all my emo music lmao


CloudCityFish

This is proof Capcom is not an evil corporation. Sure they have $4 DLC that gives you more money, but if they released Ashley school girl or lolita DLC for $10 they'd be raking in the money.


decoy139

School girl is what shes already wearing lol. Capcom has always been lewd with thier extra outfits this game is actually an exemption


Garlic_God

>Lolita :(


zidiark98

That’d be great if they did that right? Who doesn’t love cute Victorian dresses.


TheNullOfTheVoid

Japan + Lolita here in America quickly conjures up ideas of pedophilia, and that is unacceptable. If it were to just be a cute version of Victorian-era fashion, that would be fine, but sadly that’s not the case and I’d personally rather not touch it with a 10-foot pole. I’ll stick to my emo aesthetic and stay as far away as possible.


logical-dude212

Casual for 2005


koscheiskowska

_IT ISN'T A PHASE, LEON! THIS IS MY TRUE SELF! UGH!_


Academiral

*\*all american rejects plays\**


Arkhe1n

That's as early 2000's as it can get


LethalButters

I still like that kind of outfit a bit. Seeing old pics of scene girls makes me want some of the style to come back.


Emo_Femboy_28

I'm going to exclusively play with this and Leon's skin when I get time to play the game, I love it even tho many people dislike it


MallSWAT

It’s just missing an Invader Zim shirt


Academiral

Ashlet having a Gir keychain would be stellar


cannedwings

Don't cringe. You were young, trying something new, figuring yourself out, and expressing it for others to know. Would I hang out with you in HS? No, but that says more about me than you. Embrace the embarrassment.


P33nBoi

I’m doing my RAWR XD play through as well


eCharms

Unrelevant but does anyone like Leons villian costume? Imo it doesnt fit in and looks it came out of DMC.


C0nvinced

No I personally don't I think it's weird as hell lmao


ShaneLPJones

Pair this Ashley with Villain Leon. Leon is now a member of a goth band, and Ashley is his groupie.


AgitatedBackground96

Well I mean they're keeping it very 2004 so this tracks.


twisteer94

I choose to believe Ashley was thinking on Halloween


Gman11_

I’m just waiting for the mods to come out lol


Academiral

Call me granpa, [but a Roll outfit](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/e/e3/Mega_Man_11_Roll.png/220px-Mega_Man_11_Roll.png) for her would kill it


Antique_Atmosphere30

I just wish they would give us the classic ashley outfit from the original game. I would gladly pay for that.


AnimeDreama

Nah i love this


AverageJun

This was peak 2000s


Thatonesplicer

I love it, brings me back to my high school years crushing on the scene/emo girls haha.


MetaDragon11

This is 100% the early 2000s alt. How Japan got that right is beyond me.


edman9677

Since this is her casual outfit, it implies this is how she is normally


Chedder1998

I gave Ashely this outfit and Leon the Villain outfit. I felt like I was playing someone's fanfic come to life.


P3ppRR00n

actually it’s based


finalicht

It's period correct.....also, it pisses off the prudish boomers like Mendez and maybe Saddler so I'm all for it


Charon2277

She deffo shares rawr :3 memes


KYLETHORPAYNE1611

Looks like Alexa Bliss 🤭


Truthful_Azn

If this costume is available, there better be a knight costume for Ashley.


SavagerXx

This Is something a modder would come up with lol.


Able-Background-9765

Can't wait to this more interesting skin mods, if you know what I mean


void_evilness

Scene is weird


cupcakelori

That haircut doesn’t look right on her 😭


ArmedNurse

I'm thinking the chainsaw on her back might be a Lolipop Chainsaw reference. Nice.


synthetic9

Ain’t nothing casual about this outfit lol


BEASTBOY-2004

Beecaase toonait wheel bee the nait that I will fall for yaw


TheNinjaMonkey03

Kinda hot ngl


Icy_Establishment634

I think this outfit looks best with the red hair equipped


valtiel20

Moira carried this energy better.


Western_Phone_2274

I wish they had just chose something normal but this is what we got


6fingered_devil_hand

San Antonio Texas downtown scene girl in 2005 idk (they were littered everywhere then) Maybe settled for a Goth death rocker Ashley idk.


tb21666

Just another reason to shoot her, more.


AssholeThatIsCrusty

"Casual" my ass.


deathwire0047

The accuracy of this outfit is much more cursed


Darkknightdl

This picture screams “RAWR!” IMO


GhostOfFoxhound

🎶You've got me bewitched, 'cause I'm under your spell! Hhuuuuuuuuooooh🎶


Jurski17

Dont cringe, that was dope back in the day.


ninjast4r

The really cursed thing about this is the fact that the game takes place almost 20 years ago, and I'm not in high school anymore. I don't want to be old😞


CanguruGuerreiro

Average My Chem enjoyer


BirdCultural

Thanks I hate it


Wanhade600

Its just a style, no need to cringe at it. The reason to cringe is their personality that comes with the style, that, that needed to change lmao.


C0nvinced

I'm cringing because it was a blast of nostalgia that made me think of teenage me lmao. Great times tho wouldn't change a thing.


Seagullbeans

The arm warmers....ahh I remember


BlackhawkRogueNinjaX

Also, this isn’t casual.


CosmicWanderer2814

It was casual for scene kids. I had a few classmates that literally dressed like this every single day.


not4eating

"It's not a phase Leon!"


C0nvinced

LEON HEEE-LLLOOOOO THEREE THE ANGEL FROM MY NIGHTMAREEEE


rebeetle

This is why you don't hang out with Bayonetta's daughter


Alarming-Ad-5955

its so out of place HAHAH


graysonfrigginpayne

I love Emo Ashley


Former-Question6933

All the extra costumes in the deluxe pack suck


IMAGINE_thesmell

Kind of hot. Esp when mixing accessories.


mycatkermit

SCENE ASHLEY????????? how the FUCK did i miss this i need to replay just for that skin


rockinalex07021

This outfit would work if Ashley was 250 pounds


girlsonsoysauce

I dressed like this too. All I listened to was Chiodos and Alesana and Breathe Carolina and shit, and now whenever I hear them I can actually hear how shitty it is and I cringe. I feel like I must have been tone-deaf back then.


quiztopathologistCD3

Basically Moira burton


HighFirePleroma

I really miss alternative costumes from OG, these new costume don't do much for me. Cowgirl Ashley please


CinnamonSniffer

***NICE***


DimitrescusBunghole

*jaw drops to floor, eyes pop out of sockets accompanied by trumpets, heart beats out of chest, awooga awooga sound effect, pulls chain on train whistle that has appeared next to head as steam blows out, slams fists on table, rattling any plates, bowls or silverware, whistles loudly, fireworks shoot from top of head, pants loudly as tongue hangs out of mouth, wipes comically large bead of sweat from forehead, clears throat, straightens tie, combs hair* Ahem, she looks very lovely.


[deleted]

I think Ashley’s skins are the only good ones that are initially available. Leon’s casuals ok but looks tacky with the affliction style design on the back. And his other ones are just campy as fuck. Puffy shirt from Seinfeld episode. A dark vampire? Even the hero one was just kind of wtv. What you ppl think?


TimedRevolver

Have people forgotten that Leon is kind of a lame doof? Is Resident Evil 2 out of mind already?
