Yes, and RE6 is what got me into the series! Before then, the only thing I knew about survival horror was that it existed, and now look, I've played and cherished almost every game in the series. It's my hope that this will have the same effect on others in the future. Fair enough, but I don't think that a game hat has little to no relation to the core series can be a good indicator of what it represents.

But we haven't seen very much of the game yet, so it's possible the game will offer more hints and teases of what Resident Evil actually is than we've seen. Don't get me wrong, I hate Capcom as much as the next person, I just don't want to immediately condemn this game without knowing more first, and right now I'm cautiously optimistic that it may help encourage some more fresh blood for the fanbase. So long as there's enough in-universe content to provoke people to ask questions ("Why is this happening?", "Who are they?"), there's hope.

Sure, that's a healthy approach, actually, so all the better for you. But,I don't know, there are places that some games shouldn't explore, and Resident Evil going multiplayer only seems just... off. And this news comes in a year where Resident Evil already had some questionable releases (in terms of performance or port quality, at least) this comes off like a shot in the foot. I mean, come on, RE7 is due an annoncuement (whatever it may turn out to be). But can't argue with your wishfull thinking which I'm truly envious of. I'm just too burned to be in anyway excited for this. Also I don't play multiplayer games so there's that too...

As long as they Keep the action Shooter stuff away from the horror (which i assume its coming back) Im fine with it xD and dont forget this is a totally different game and not re7 XD Oh and Capcom is just please the Re fans who want Acton and more mobility because we all know there is some fanboy ready to jump on that and have some "fun" for me i can say that if its not interesting and cool Im not buying it tho if others buy it (friends) then sure ill get it xD and lets not foget that maybe they did this so that they can have an action shooter cock of dudy style game-play so that the main series can he horror (i hope) unless re7 is gonna be the biggest action adventure game and then i think capcom will have to just die XD

looks pretty darn lame, sorry for being the negative nancy but come on Capcom seriously?
After you saw how terribly ORC was received by fans you STILL want to attempt to gain the Call of Duty crowd ssssssooooooooooooooooooooooo bad?
Its just not going to happen, I would be upset if it where not for the fact that they are giving us a RE2 remake (which I am patiently waiting on gameplay/ingame pictures), so yea, I'm not all that upset about it but I can not help but facepalm just a bit at Capcom's repeated attempts to try to get into the call of duty market lol.

ORC actually sold over two million copies EDIT: i need to learn to read. you mentioned the fan recption also this game was clearly outsourced, and as some guy from Capcom UK described this game: It's Resident Evil Counter Strike if you read the official website it's LITERALLY SAID: "This game targets the ESPORTS game market" also tocool don't worry about being "the negative nancy", a lot of people are complaining about the game

It is true that alot of the features in RE:ORC were carried over to RE6 (Moving while Shooting, Cover System, Less Contextual Melee attacks and Dodging.) I highly enjoyed RE6's fluidity with the controls. However the problem lies in RE6 is as action-orientated as the series will want to be as it will only alienate fans needing horror only having to look elsewhere and be disappointing further. Sadly Shinji Mikami did a total flop with The Evil Within as well so it's not like survival horror as a genre is exactly thriving, it's barely alive thanks to every game developer making multiplayer games that look all the same in the end. I do feel that RE7 will no doubt be affected from this game on some level so it is fair to be cautious and place mistrust in Capcom. I mean if they ditch the MT framework in the future then modding is hooped for the RE Franchise. For all we know they may use this game to asses how to go about RE2 Remake as well. There are plenty of PvP games out there already with zombies and mindless shooting and cover systems so while this looks good and fun for some, it is very unremarkable for others. I think it's fair to be dissatisfied with the way they are treating this franchise and rushing releases. I hope they only release RE7 under caring circumstances with consideration to their fans in balancing out the horror with co-op and fun gameplay, but with this release of a spinoff, RE future releases may end up being so action orientated, the franchise will be a mere unrecognizable shell of itself and be blown up to bits in a volcano, only to wander the halls as a drunkard longing for the days when games where experiences to enjoy rather than countless repetitive online sessions. That's just my opinion though. To me, "Umbrella Corps" is nothing new. So I say: At least SF will be consistent as a franchise from Capcom, or are they releasing a spin off puzzle game called "The Chun-Li Chronicles"?

And Capcom has said before in interviews that they wish for the Resident Evil series to change with the current demographic and one day get the kind of sells that Call of Duty gets, I believe they said this around the time they where gearing up to release both RE6 and RE ORC back in 2012, I know what was LITERALLY SAID, but given Capcom's perception and high bar set as far as game sells goes I thinks its pretty obvious that they are also trying to get some of those casual call of duty players onboard.

Good points dude, yea I understand why developers would want the best for their series, including those call of duty sells, but I also feel those developers should be realistic, Call of Duty is currently a entirely different beast amongst the gaming demographic right now, its something of a "special" case with how many fans it managed to generic who buy those games in large quantities yearly, Its not something that can be replicated and some developers need to realize that, either that or simply make a new IP entirely rather than attempting to spin a already established one into something unrecognizable.

Regardless we've only gotten a short amount of game play, and people are all already hating it, and note: this is its own little game, has nothing to do with any of the current RE games, so if you dont like it, there really isn't need to be so negative about it, plus most of the people complaining about it are probably just mad it wasn't RE7 honestly that wont be till next year most likely.

So your saying we should not say anything negative about the game because "it is its own little game"? Doesn't matter dude, if people don't like the way it looks they are free to express their opinion on it, lets be fair here, if fans are allowed to show their praise for this game upon the little that was shown than other fans should be allowed to show their disdain towards what little was shown. I get that you feel it is getting to much crap out the gate, but that is the risk Capcom runs by releasing such a game under a established name such as Biohazard/Resident Evil which seems pretty alien to a lot of fans, hence the current overflow of negativity being thrown at it. Me personally I don't care that its not RE7, this game still looks pretty generic and bland to me even based on what little was shown. To be honest I feel RE7 is probably going to be more of the same like RE5 and RE6 so really I'm not all that hyped about it, I am however looking forward to the Resident Evil 2 remake. Bit of advice, don't let others negativity get you to the point that you paint over all those valid concerns with them simply "mad that it is not RE7", a lot of fans simply don't feel this game would be their cup of tea, point blank period.

My negativity towards the game should only be seen as because I am VERY fussy with my RE games.
I don't like ORC, RER, RER2 (although I really should complete chapters 2, 3 and 4) or RE6 so I have little hope in newer RE games.
