Has anyone here ever played through a game series? Like, not over the years but as a concerted effort? I did that for Zelda like 12 years ago, but I haven't done it since. I kinda' want to do it with Final Fantasy or something, but IDK. Not sure what series I should do another one with. Oh, I guess I did it with Silent Hill, sorta (up to SH Shattered Memories).
Only had 3 entries at the time, but I went through the dragon age series before the latest came out. It was pretty fun to watch the evolution of the series. 2 was much better than I remembered at launch, and I think Origins had some serious nostalgia propping up its legacy (it’s still good tho).
Currently playing through the Tomb Raider Reboot series (the 2013 one not the remasters of the old ones)
I've tried a few times but it's usually with older games and there's something frustrating enough about it that I don't really want more immediately and need to let it settle. Like I was gonna play all of the God of War games but there are some fights that are just bullshit in the first one, I was gonna play all the Sly Cooper games but there's some areas with really bad detection for your crook to grab onto, I was going to play all of the Metal Gear Solid games but I think the top down camera angle thing in the first one honestly sucks. I'm probably just picky though.
Yakuza might be a good one, although long.
Oh yeah, I kind of did that with Yakuza too, when the remaster collection came out on PS4 I played 3, 4 and 5 all in succession.
Like someone else said, Yakuza would be good for that since 0-6 is pretty much one connected story. I would wait for Kiwami 3 to come out next year though since Yakuza 3 has by far the worst combat in the series.
3 was fine when it came out. It just feels bad now because most people are playing it after the two Kiwamis.
I didn't play the original version, but from what I've read 3 remastered (which is what yoillt be playing unless you break out a PS3) really fucked the combat. It's the only one I played on easy because the fights are just frustration long.
i did the final fantasy count-up in the lead up to 15 coming out
and i've played through the trails series a couple of times (before it got quite so large)
Yeah, I played through the Ys series some years ago up to VIII, which was the newest game at the time. I did give up on some of the ones that weren't good, mainly V.
i played through No More Heroes like that last year
