mikami is a hack, the real genius behind resident evil left capcom after the first game as he and mikami didn't see eye to eye at all so for the remake mikami had free reign and no one to tell him no which is why they went hard into the ridiculous halloween gothic haunted house direction. It's also the reason the beta resident evil 4 had ghosts
