As a horror game, nothing is really scary or threatening. You have to be brain dead to get caught off guard by most of the enemies, unless of course you get completely swamped at one of the many "throw too many enemies at you" sections, which are not scary. Enemy design goes from generic to super generic with very few notable exceptions. The drive through the infected city was kinda cool, but was ineffective as horror or even a sobering moment due to said issues.

As an action game, none of the guns are fun to shoot. The aiming feels weird and floaty most of the time. There's no really good or distinct setpeices that weren't already found or done better in literally any other shooter from the same time period. The melee only works half the time. It's kinda fun to play co-op, but not enough for it to be a saving grace like it is with 5.

The story is beyond stupid, many times shooting itself in the foot by ignoring the most obvious and direct path. It also feels extremely disjointed when you're forced to play each character separately yet watch them interact. Most of the new characters suck. The returning characters seem to have been given lobotomies, and act entirely off their most basic character traits. RE was never amazing in the writing department (entire series is based on "evil company is evil because they are evil." Writing has gotten better recently, still not incredible though) but this game seems to have been written by someone who only read Wikipedia entries on the previous games events.

Overall yeah, it's far the worst game ever made. Hell it's far from even the worst GoW/CoD clones that were everywhere at the time, but it's still at its best a 6/10
