It steals a lot from other Resident Evil game, and from survival horror games in general. I really don't have a problem with that. Because that's kind of the nature of creativity. It's okay to be original, but that's often kind of hard, so it's okay to take something old and put a new spin on it. Movie makers and songwriters tend to do that all the time. Without divulging script and creating spoilers, because the game is still pretty new, I will keep this short. I'm enjoying it. But it's not Resident Evil. If you took the RE name away from it, you would never know it's Resident Evil - just like Resident Evil 7. It's a whole new game.
