No it shouldn't have, because being a Resident Evil game from the beginning informed it's design aspects. It's Resident Evil, but the best possible version of it. With gameplay so fun and timeless it makes the 2023 demake look like a clown show.

People say the same thing about Halloween III: Season of the Witch, but it would be mostly forgotten if not for its connection to the Halloween franchise. It’s called brand recognition.

>no one would’ve been butthurt about it
I love classic RE games but I feel like everyone talking about how RE4 "killed classic RE" is completely out of touch. Classic fixed-camera RE games were selling less and less after RE2 and if RE4 would have been a new, completely different franchise, you'd simply never see another RE game.
RE was always a huge mainstream franchise and them changing the formula so the average normie buys it was inevitable. You're completely delusional if you think the RE2 remake would have sold well with a fixed camera for example. Again, I'm not saying I didn't want RE2make to be fixed-camera, it's just that it wouldn't sell nearly as much

there is no reason to complain. op is right. re has stagnated but 4 was too much. new ip. everyone wins.
>wouldnt have sold well
did you play the game? it would have sold just fine. it would have been slower but by ps2 it would be in full bloom

Only the most autistic, sniveling pedants are butthurt about it. RE4 was and continues to be universally praised.

The people who pretend to have been butthurt about it weren't really back then. They're also so insignificant in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter. The game was an instant hit with pretty much everyone.
Your suggestion is completely pointless and catering to a non-crowd.

Devil May Cry was supposed to be a Resident Evil game.

They ended up better for it, re4 could have been a better game but instead of was a mediocre qte point and clicker.
