RE4 is not a horror game in the same way that Blade is not a horror movie.

Who cares about nomenclature? Play what you enjoy and don't think about superficial categories.

You don't understand. OP needs other people to agree with him or he'll feel insignificant.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
No true Scotsman, or appeal to purity, is an informal fallacy in which one attempts to protect their universal generalization from a falsifying counterexample by excluding the counterexample improperly.[1][2][3] Rather than abandoning the falsified universal generalization or providing evidence that would disqualify the falsifying counterexample, a slightly modified generalization is constructed ad-hoc to definitionally exclude the undesirable specific case and counterexamples like it by appeal to rhetoric.[4] This rhetoric takes the form of emotionally charged but nonsubstantive purity platitudes such as "true, pure, genuine, authentic, real", etc.[2][5]

God damn it, I thought I had you for sure, but I picked Wikipedia, which is the only website with that information. There is no list of logical fallacies outside of Wikipedia. God damn it, I thought for sure I had you.

When you're old enough to appreciate atmosphere, tension, and art in horror, you appreciate good horror without being afraid. You have to be 18 to post here

What did Capcom mean by this

Also 4 is a decent third-person shooter, call of duty style, nothing more, nothing less

As a hardcore fan of the series, when I saw 4, I almost thew up in disgust.

>Enter room
>HEEERE, I'M AN ENEMY! (from behind a low wall)
>Shoot them
>Ammo, money and health fly off every single corpse

The whole point of the survival horror genre was that you had scarce resources so you'd have to carefully pick your battles, making it better to just flee enemies whenever you can
