If you saw them selling tickets to a new Calgary Flames season, would you just shrug and say, "OK, I guess that's what the franchise is now." or would you say, "This is BS! They were an up and coming hockey team that should have been competing for Stanley Cups for years! That's what I want to be watching!"?

Fallout 3 is when the series changed, not Fallout 4. Complaining that the game is now an action RPG was a task for 7 years ago.
This is what the series is now. This is what 3 was, this is what New Vegas was. Fallout 1 and 2 were fantastic strategy RPGs. Fallout 3 and 4 are fantastic action RPGs.
Either buy the game or don't. Support it or don't support it. The series is more popular now than it ever was as a tactical game.
As others have mentioned, Wasteland 2 is a decent pickup for fans of the original Fallout games. Paper Mario 2 is perhaps my favourite game ever, and when they released Paper Mario 3 and completely changed the genre, I was disappointed. I didn't like the game. They've since released a handheld game that is also nothing like Paper Mario 2. I have no reason to expect Paper Mario 5 to be anything like the original games.
As an aside, I think Gametrailers does a really good job in this video touching upon a lot of the complaints and bugs:
