I think of Resident Evil enemies as a branch of zombies.

BOWs. Its started as Zombies to me, but as soon as Lickers popped up it I realized Zombies are just a type of enemy in the world.

Kinda like in DMC it's a game about demons, not evil marionettes.

I played RE4 first, so my connection to zombies with the series was wondering where they were. I played Dino Crisis in the PS1 days, so I never experienced a RE until I played 6 and I hated it.

i wish we got another mainline zombie entry.

the last canonical game that had them was RE6 which is pretty tragic in itself.

Of course this topic would turn into re6 bashing topic. Too bad re4 is the most overrated game of all time.

RE zombies dont come back, they need a living host to mutate. The reason they look rotting is cause of necrosis, and not cause they were brought back from the dead.

That's just Capcom being dicks....it was completely considered a Zombie game up until, RE4.

Then they changed the formula and the narrative and people bought in...probably because it was babies first not baby game on the Gamecube.

RE4 is a great run and gun, but it's not an RE game.

In terms of gameplay, progression, and very little connection to the first three games (to the point where it's not even the same Leon personality-wise), yeah. But not because it doesn't have zombies.

So everything about it isn't an RE game except the one thing that fans and none fans associated RE with.
Capcom got lazy and just used title to sell games, they didn't otherwise know how to market....apparently.
~Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if Nintendo wouldn't allow RE4 on that console without the RE title.

It was perceived that way, and Capcom knew it.
They just pulled the rug out from everyone, and people went along with it.

Except RE3 and CV anyway where buried corpses get reanimated because of the virus.

Resident Evil's always been about more than zombies.

That was the core of the game though.
Zombies, with some other shit.

Zombies and spooks, eventually supplanted by monsters and action. That's Resident Evil.

In the first versions of RE4, they wanted to go the paranormal route and although I thought it was a good redirection, I'm glad they stuck to BOWs or viruses at the end.

Hunters are not frogs. The amphibious hunters from 3 are, probably, especially given their redesign. Hunters are reptiles, as they have claws and scales which are not adaptations frogs share.

Hunters also likely aren't accidents like zombies, giant snakes/spiders, or experiments like the shark/plant, but some end product engineered creature. The research documents from one of the scientists talks about hair-less apes that they would feed carcasses to, and they rip the food apart with their claws, but that early in the game you don't know what the hair-less apes are so it just sounds disturbing.
