I'm still mad.

This is just what happens when you have different writers between each game. The series isn't that different from a string of fanfictions.

All that happened was the orginisation was dropped. The big players/criminals, "Spencer, The Weskers, Duvall, Vladamir e.t.c" were still at large and mostly avoiding prosocution until they were all inevitably hunted down in diffirent locations around the globe. Things like this take years anon.

I wouldn't have be so made they at least told us how in more detail.
You didn't get an explanation until umbrella chronicles.

What's a spinoff ?

Y'all must be slow.
Mikami decided that they couldn't keep having Resident Evil games set in 1998 or it'd be a fucking period piece. He also decided it wouldn't make any sense to have Umbrella starting bio-war around the planet and not show it. So RE4 put forward the contrivance that Umbrella 'appeared' to have gone out of business by having the US strong arm it and presumably justify it with evidence the military forces we saw deployed to Raccoon gathered.
Krauser, Ada, and Wesker all hint at this being a front, and the time being right to those corporations hidden holdings make a play, and were all still factors against one another even.
Everything would've been alright to pick up from after Leon starred in the first modern game in 7 years if the name of the game going forward wasn't sucking Wesker's cock.

Wow what a dedicated anon...I bet you cross referenced your notes while watching the movies.
jettisoning RE's increasingly retarded plot was the best thing the series did
returning to it in RE5 and 6 was a mistake cuz they only fucked it up more, somehow
I heard its cuz the original writer died, so out of respect they scrapped that plot and went in a different direction.
