I don't get what's fun about it

I hate the controls (never a RE guy) and I hate struggling to progress due to lack of ammo. I get that that's common in survival-horror, but why? What's fun about it? I just see it as a nuisance and maybe a lazy way to increase the difficulty. I never feel like playing. I only ever do because I like the story (read about it after rage quitting) and I don't want to feel like my money was completely wasted. If you're on the fence about getting this, watch A LOT of gameplay first. I made the mistake of getting it based on the escape from the butcher. I made it a decent way past that part before getting a bad checkpoint. I now have to reload a previous checkpoint and try to conserve ammo or something but it's not worth it at all in my opinion. Having to backtrack to progress is a sign of a bad game if you ask me.
