That's off the point as well.
If you've not even dwelled into the story, lore and symbolism of the games, why spread some head-canon nonsense?

I applaud you for figuring out that survival horror games revolve around problem solving, but I think you are suffering of quite limited perspective and probably some bad prior experiences with the actual puzzle genre, resulting a very silly prejudices.

I'm an ESL, and I could beat all of RE1-3 and SH1-3 just fine on my own, in the 1990s and early 00s. There was no internet, no fancy guides, and plenty of foreign terminology I had to look up from a physical dictionary... but other than that, even a child could beat these games. And replaying them is damn much fun.

Obviously Kojima's games are a whole different category of their own, most of them belonging in the stealth-action genre.
