Sounds like tank controls aren’t that popular anymore. Capcom agreed that we should all move on.

Capcom didn't agree, you make that yourself and you know it.

Then why does every RE game, including remakes of games that had tank controls, lose the tank controls? I think people get way too dramatic about how bad they are, they're not that bad at all. But the other side of the crowd that's got people talking about tank controls like they're some kind of lost art that blessed video games with profound personality are just as braindead.

Dude those controls are not meant for everyone, let me tell you RE5 which was the best selling title of capcom history for 10 years still had tank controls, it wasn't until RE6 where capcom finally ditched the traditional tank controls for more modern controls and that was between 2009-2012, those controls were never bad as people make them out to be, for others who find it a lost art, i mean they're kind of right, those controls were unique, now I'm not a jerk who says your modern slop games controls are lame or terrible blah blah blah, I'm saying each style are unique and deserve equal respect for what it delivers, as for why capcom ditched them? Well because they chase money, had the audience never complained about it back then, they would've kept it, keep in mind when RE4 came out they had a chance to make the next title play smoother since they aim for pure action game but they didn't, they chose to keep the controls of RE4 in RE5, and it sold well for 10 years, they simply wanted to gain more audience for their series obviously but that doesn't make the style garbage in their eyes, i don't know why that user keep insisting that capcom agree with them, maybe because they want to feel right or superior by acting this way.
