There is still a great focus on action, but there is a return of aiming at certain body parts to perform melee finishers. That being said, the gameplay that splits up moving from cutscene A to cutscene B is a great improvement upon Resident Evil 5. It’s not that entertaining and the cutscenes, although impressive to look at, are just asking to be skipped. There is a new virus, again, something about a Neo Umbrella and Wesker’s son brings some uninteresting confrontations. Resident Evil 6 fails to do anything to advance the story of the series. The game could have a brand new IP attached to it, and would probably have gotten a better reception if it wasn't associated with that history. Resident Evil 6 closely follows my opinion about how the Resident Evil license was used in the recent Operation Raccoon City. Yet, Resident Evil 6 proves that the current format of the game is a great success for Capcom, even if it is not a great Resident Evil game. Fans of the original series long for the return of a game that is dripping with the horror that is so sorely lacking from the action orientated direction the series has turned to.

There is a lot of hate that is geared towards the modern Resident Evil games.
