It's still weird, if you want a new main series title then you just wait. It's not like I go on a tirade when Capcom releases new Revelations instead of RE7. Hell, I'd be happy if they announced a new Operation game because that would just mean more games in a series I love.
What these people don't realize is that spinoffs are made to keep them occupied while waiting for the next major release. To have at least SOMETHING. Another thing they don't seem to get, and a point made by a few people on this thread already, is that sales in a series, no matter how minor the title, guarantees its continued existence. If the sales on a mere spinoff are good then holy shitballs, Batman, think of the sales we'd get from a major title!
This is like that time they released that dungeon crawling Silent Hill on the Vita. People were super angry about the mere fact that it was released because such a title "completely ruins a series forever". You would think there people are forced by gunpoint to buy the games or something.
