The gameplay is the least enjoyable in the series, and this is not coming from nostalgia in any way.
You sure about that?;
Chris' gameplay on the other hand belongs in generic third person shooters like Ghost Recon: Future Soldier. I also believe that Resident Evil 6 tried way too hard to bring back the coop from Resident Evil 5. Although it is better than the babysitting nonsense in Resident Evil 4, it is still forced. Mercenaries is fun as always, but the customization is lacking. I have not tried the multiplayer component.
The old Resident Evil games were good in their day. They'd be considered completely boring and out of date for this gaming generation. Old fans may buy them, but eventually they'd get sick of the same type of gameplay and chances are they wouldn't attract any new gamers. Nobody wants to play a slow paced game anymore. Sure, they could have added more horror (like I said before, the game would have been amazing if they made all of it like Leon's first chapter), but it definitely isn't a 6.5/10 compared to the majority of games today. You're just comparing it too much to the older ones, rather than actually looking at it for what it is; like every other reviewer which gave it a low score.
Resident evil is now a 3 person co-op shooter with a BIT of horror, that's it. Take it or leave it. If you didn't like 5, why on EARTH would you buy 6 or continue to buy them? They're not going to go back to 1, 2, 3, CV, etc.
