"Hey user, you should totally check this game out"

>"Hey user, you should totally check this game out"
Isn't this part of a series?
>"Yeah, but it's like, totally stand-alone, you can totally just play this title as it is and it won't change anything"
>Play game
>Tons of cheeky references to earlier games that go over my head but are clearly references
>Dramatic character reveal is completely wasted because I don't know who the fuck it is
>A significant portion of the plotline is based around the events that happen at the end of the last game
>There's an actual, honest-to-god mechanic that relies on you beating the first game to know how it works
>"Okay, so like, when I said you don't need to play the last games, really what I meant was that there was no law of physics physically preventing you from sitting down and actually playing the game, but honestly user, you don't have to worry about it so much, I didn't even play the last game either."

I hate EVERY single one of you cunts who has ever done this to me and I hope you all burn in hell.

Every dmc5 thread

nah i played dmc5 after nearly beating 4 but stopping cuz its boring.
Dmc5 is pretty standalone and very good on its own, why wait to play 4 other games, and also you can in medias res shit

Serves you right for being a sheep. I always start for the first game no matter how archaic it is.

Never trust skipfags and use Google.

I don't trust skipfags since I was 12 years old, when the stupid school librarian made me read book 3 of A Series of Unfortunate Events before book 2 because "they aren't connected anyway". I got the whole book spoiled and didn't understand shit of what was happening. Fuck her.

Glad to hear you never played any MGS game. Nor Warcraft. Nor Elder Scrolls, nor Fallout, nor Pokemon.

Shit taste
Not him but how is MGS and Warcraft related to the rest? Except maybe Fallout 1-2-New vegas but it doesn't really matter. I wanted to get into Persona and played them all starting from 1, git gud

>can't bear to put myself through the early entries (most notably Disgaea)
>will never get to experience the series and bond with the anime girls in the games

I honestly don't get why these retards do this. Hell, this shit seems only to happen in video games and movies too. I've never EVER heard of someone telling me to "bro it's okay to just skip Fellowship of the rings, you can just jump straight into the Twin Towers", or "Oh yeah, it's totally okay to read The Adventure of the Final Problem without the other books. Nothing really important happens anyways". But then you get chucklefucks that just always want you to watch movie 6 of a 7 part series with no introduction.

Nothing wrong with Disgaea 1 afaik, aside from the shittier graphics and quality of life updates (?) i don't think there is much difference from the rest
