The question does not have to be "Is this a good Resident Evil game?", but instead "is this a good first person horror game?" And frankly, I was not particularly impressed by it as a horror game. The campy narrative ruins any sense of horror, and the blood & gore are just superficial tricks that have been done over and over again to the point that it's just there rather than being legitimately disconcerting.
If it wasn't for the association with Resident Evil, this would be a forgettable horror demo with an above average budget. We'll see how the final product ends up being, but there's only 6 months to go, so I wonder how much different the final product will be.
People thinking that the issues some are having with this game is because of a departure from the RE4-6 formula are completely miscategorizing the arguments being made.
