It's not that it was too complicated for them - they have Spirit who has a huge variety of changing facial animations.
It's that they didn't care enough to wait/try and do it the way the artist envisioned it.

That's not necessarily a horrible thing - I'm not saying or trying to imply BHVR are terrible people or lazy devs or anything of the sort.
I'm just saying that in this specific instance they just weren't willing to put the time/effort/money into this.
Because it's not just the mask; the lantern was supposed to have a working/flickering light, the paint was supposed to glow, and the chains on the left arm are now just flat textures instead of 3D objects. IIRC there are other issues too; but in the end it's just not what people got really hyped for.
But it's not like BHVR didn't care - they contacted the artist to make sure their redesign was okay, and they still made a pretty cool skin overall.
It's just disappointing because it could have been a lot cooler.

And it's even more disappointing because thong Claudette was given extra time so they could make that better.
