What's the best mainline Resident Evil game, (not including remakes) and why?

It's curious you made that question when I just finished 7 and I am halfway into Village getting ready for Requiem.

Well, I never played the original 4. I loved 7 because of how scary and unsetting it is. I like 6 a lot due to the cool action gameplay too, and the original trilogy on PS1 is really good. I think 5 is my least favorite in the series, since I had some troubles with the gameplay and the atmosphere.

To be honest I would vote for 7. I love 6, but 7 is just a superior game. I'm really enjoying Village too.
