To be fair, I think there’s a lot of truth to…

idk maybe im old school but i like to go back and do 1 – 2 – 3, even if 3 just came out i go back. maybe im just weird idk, but i think its best t go back to fully appreciate most games. (f.e.a.r, halo, assassins creed, fable, dead space, borderlands, silent hill, resident evil, fall out – etc you get the idea) even if they’re not like story-based. i just cannot play 2-4-1-3 or whatever, i think its super incorrect. any and every game ive owned i played in their correct order, i thought that was a thing w/ most gamers, i could be wrong, obviously hence this conversation. its most likely personal preference –

That’s the same with me for the most part but there’s obviously a few exceptions. The majority of game series’ I like to play from beginning to end but some I’m not too bothered about. For example, the first Final Fantasy I played and finished was FFX and I adore it. I’ve started playing FF1 a couple of times but haven’t finished it yet. I’ve played some of FFXIV and I’ve started FFX-2. FF is a little bit different though since most of the games aren’t connected anyway.

Of all the games that I’ve played chronologically, I think the majority of them I liked the first one the best. I think the only exception would be Dragon Age where I prefer Inquisition and 2 over Origins. Other than that, the first one I played is pretty much always my favourite.

The thing with The Sims though is that it isn’t really the kind of game where you’re meant to or should play the previous iterations first. When The Sims first came out, it was the only thing like that at the time so it was what I played and I grew up with it. I can understand why a lot of kids playing The Sims now for the first time don’t want to go back and play the original ones because they’re pretty old now and they just don’t see the appeal, especially when they have these new and improved versions. It’s unfortunate but I can understand.

For example, I never had a SNES or anything when I was young. I just had a PC and eventually got an Xbox etc. But when I hear people talking about how they used to play SNES back in the day when they were a kid I just can’t relate to it or understand because I never got to experience it. And now, I don’t think I could ever see myself playing those old games from way back then because I just have no interest in them whatsoever.
