I’m sorry to say but I really disagree with this. It clearly said in the story this was a big choice.
It would really take away from the game for you to be able to just go “oh yeah…I want another armor set” and replay your story.
In my opinion that would kill character development just to be able to essentially time travel backwards and redo choices just because you didn’t do enough research, and yes you could have done research because I checked the same thing out before I made my choice.
