Yes its become more of an adventure shooter really but it still has its scary part.

Resident Evil 4 wasn't scary at all compared to Resident Evil Remake.

 

I'm just as disappointed with RE4 and RE5. I'm sure RE5 will be a good game, just not a Resident Evil game.

 

 

RE has always been a good series but RE4 made it a great series.  Took it to the next level.  Gave it the action of what a real horror would be like and made it more epic.  I think it's the best thing to ever happen to it.  Sure because it was more focused on action rather than investigation you lost some of the scary parts, but I think it made the series a hell of a lot better.  Gave it the depth it needed.  It expanded on what a survival horror could be and that's a good thing.

RE4 expanded the userbase. Don't get me wrong, Resident Evil 4 was an excellent game. But it when I played Resident Evil Remake, I realized that true survival horror was. The lack of ammo, horrible camera angles, terrible controls, etc. That made REmake an amazing game. The setting was amazing aswell. When I went to the laboratoy outside the Mansion, I was so scared.

Resident Evil 4 didn't scare me one bit. It made the zombies more of an obstacle, not a challenge. One shot in the leg and one shot in the head, bam, they're dead. In REmake, You'd either have to run or waste many bullets on them.

 

RE0 was the toughest one and probably creepiest so don't give me that haha.  REmake was good and scary but nothing compares to RE0.  My god that game was difficult and of course freaky.

RE4 didn't scare me much either but it still freaked me out from time to time.  But it was more than just giving a few cheap scares every now and then.  It was about creating and atmosphere that brought you along for the story with intense action along the way.  None of the other REs did that that well.  And sure the frustrating controls and technicalities in the others made for a scarier game, but RE4 perfected a series without giving much away along with giving a compelling setting, story, and action thriller.  Ya lost the Zombie hiding around the corner becuase of bad camera angles but you gained the reving of a chainsaw without knowing where the guy was and feeling helpless even with good controls and camera.
