SH1-3 are survival horror. You're intentionally trying to avoid combat as much as possible to save supplies and health. Now compare that to nu-SH where you have to fucking perfect dodge and parry every enemy you come across. Not only does this get rid of any suspense you have of the enemies, but it also defeats the purpose of the characters. In SH2, James is supposed to be a every man's man, not someone who is able to fucking dodge and parry enemies.
