What about the people that grew up with the series and aren't flipping their shit over the direction it's taken?

I love video games, too. The difference between you and me is that it's a hobby for me. It seems to be your ENTIRE EXISTENCE.
Seriously dude. Chill out. You're starting to sound like a fucking crazy person.
LOL, I know. He's acting like RE1 was a 4X game.
Like me.
Oh wait, I'm apparently okay with mediocrity, so I don't count. Nevermind!

The original RE didn't give you enough ammo to play it like an action game. If you went around trying to kill every zombie you were going to be in deep shit. Unless you were like that crazy guy that managed to beat it with a knife.
RE2 was really actiony by comparison though. CVX also.

What if Leon is actually Chris' long lost twin brother?
and Wesker was their cousin?!

It's a trailer.
Trailers are meant to be exciting.
Action is exciting.
That doesn't mean the whole game is comprised of over-the-top action.

SMH @ Papercuts.
SMFH.
A point by point rebuttal that might technically be correct, but completely fails to address the issues that my post discussed.
RE4: creepy town, creepy gothic church/castle/dungeon, morbid feel for much of the game, lots of big mutated baddies, enemies generally fit the horror vibe.
RE5: brightly-lit town, brightly-lit swamp, not creepy/spooky/morbid or whichever adjective you want to use, ridiculous Tomb Raider/Uncharted/Legend of the Hidden Temple-esque set piece near the end, enemies wearing Crash Bandicoot masks... seriously wtf is this shit?
RE6: Much closer to classic RE titles in atmosphere, but with the dial turned up to 11.

I'll keep an eye on this. Leon looks bad though. RE4 Leon looked great
That was back when game consoles weren't toys for children apparently, and Resident Evil was mature and serious. It's gone from The Divine Comedy to the Beano dude.
oh great wise and wonderful RE master, tell me about this wonderful RE puzzle solving. All I can remember is finding item A, using it on certain place A, getting item B......

wait, action movies dont have an explosion every twenty seconds? the trailers lied?
The reason they change the series direction is because the declining in sale for survival horror game. Those moaning people only want to play the same old thing till it die :/
They don't know how much RE4 draw attention for the new people into the series and revive RE name back into the business. And now they want to drag that back to RE CV/RE 0 situation again. It's been 6 years now and they still complaining for the game being too much action ....

What? I don't think that is the path at all that Capcom would have gone if not for the popularity and influence of Gears. The lazily added cover system of 5 is enough proof of that. They felt they had to because everyone else was. Same thing with co-op. I bet it wasn't even part of the original idea. The very very first trailer had no signs of co-op. In fact the early talk of 5 was very different.

To be fair, if you had precision aiming to pull off headshots, you probably could kill every zombie.The original RE didn't give you enough ammo to play it like an action game. If you went around trying to kill every zombie you were going to be in deep shit. Unless you were like that crazy guy that managed to beat it with a knife.
My point is, the only way Resident Evil goes back to the avoidance of killing zombies is if you get no ammo or tank controls, and I wouldn't expect either of those to happen.SunhiLegend

I'm 23 and I've played all the resident evil games, 2,3 and 4 multiple times and you just have to accept that the franchise has taken a different direction for this gen. Its not about shitting your pants horror anymore its all about action, I personally hate the new direction they've taken which is why I don't treat it as a Resident Evil game but a good action game which looks like it could be alot of fun.
Oooh of course, there's always a point when somebody says something stupid like that. If you expect this game will be even contain 5% of puzzles of any other RE game, it is you who fails to understand what they're doing here. Again.
I make a few posts that take around 3 minutes and that's your conclusion? But apparently I'm the "psychic".

Yeah, the original RE games were mature, ludicrously complex masterpieces right? I am sure putting the red block into the red hole took some calculus to solve.
It would have sucked if you had to spend the whole of Dead Space 2 keeping an eye out for Ellie.

Never thought people would steam about a franchise like Resident Evil. Didn't the last couple games show a clear indication where it is steering towards to?
Michael Bay never lies.

No. Inserting the eagle medal into the eagle medal shaped hole is the kind of mindblowing complexity he laments losing in RE6.

Damn. The WiiU could have one hell of a launch line-up.
Pikmin 3
Nintendo game 2
Nintendo game 3
Killer Freaks
Resident Evil 6
Darksiders 2
Arkham City
Dead or Alive 5
Ninja Gaiden 3
Assassinds Creed 3
New Call of Duty
Ghost Recon
Sports games
+ Whatever else
I think the 3rd party games that have already released by the time WiiU launches will be there at launch. Anyone else think they might cannibalize each others sales?

Yeah, I remember reading crazy stuff about Resident Evil 5 when it was first first announced. Like you had to drink water to survive and you couldn't stay in the heat for too long. It really sounded like a completely different game than the RE5 we got.

Depressing to see the amount of folks who seem to take more interest in the frustration of fans of the series than the actual trailer.
Let me put it simply; if I want to play a third person shooter, I have quite a variety of titles to choose from, made by devs very talented in the genre. Why the fuck do I have to see RE ride the cover-shooter wave for no reason other than Capcom is too scared to make a TPS without an established IP? Fuck that. Make a Resident Evil game or make a TPS with a new franchise. Of course, with Capcom's retarded executives, there's only one way for this to go: make a TPS and slap the Resident Evil name on it.
Am I getting through to any of you? But hey, continue to express your mirth over the 'whiners' or whatever.

Wow great point, because there are no other "fun" (or read: dopey dumbed down" shooters out there. Thanks for the tip.
I think what really made the trailer seem bad for me was
I'm liking the look
I'm liking the atmosphere
I'm liking the action
and then I hear the spoken dialog and it's that disconnected "I'm just reading my lines for my paycheck and don't really understand what's happening" of that poor level that typically screams "Japanese game, lol".

Yeah it'd be great if half those games were announced.
Looks pretty good to me. It's going to be interesting to see how all the sections of the scenario interact, as from the trailer it looks like the Leon sections have a lot more of an old school feel and Chris' Resident Evil: Hong Kong section looks super actiony. Didn't see any Leon/Chris coop but it seems like it's gotta be in there if coop was mentioned in the press release.

The very first trailer of RE5 was atmospheric and light on action. Trailers don't have to be all action to be exciting and effective.
Haha, that's what I was thinking. RE puzzles were never exactly brain-benders.
To be fair, that's totally like Resident Evil.
Don't worry it's resident evil. People only change the color of their hair when they mutate,Blonde Rebecca would be lame.
Hope it's Ashley.

I guess we think differently then, because I thought that co-op was going to be something they were going to do the very second I saw RE0.
The series almost always features two lead characters, it's not unreasonable at all to assume someone would go "Hey, what if you could be both of them at once?" The cover system I might give you, but other games have had cover systems and it's one aspect of an entire game.
Jill's nose, however, changes at will.
He was only born in 1977, though.

Lost Planet.
Resident Evil has a history of Third-Person-Shooting, especially of this kind. Early REs were proto TPSes.
(And somehow they are doing exactly what you are suggesting at the same time: Operation Raccoon City)
EDIT: Also I've done my part in appreciating the trailer by getting hyped. Now that all that is left to do is watching the fires in its wake.

you know it wasn't the only way to go. as a fan of the series, i should imagine that you were really fucking happy today when you played the demo for Revelations.
