Evillordexdeath 06/21/20 5:01:56 PM #186:	Gall posted... I've culled my list down to series where the story is (in my view at least) important enough to matter. Use it as you will. Starcraft 1 Fallout 2 Dead Space 1 Portal 1 Arkham Asylum 999 Bioshock 1 Danganronpa 1 Dragon Age 1 and 2 Witcher 1 and 2 MGS 3, Peace Walker, and Ground Zeroes Trails 1 Uncharted 1-3 Kingsglaive FFXV Nier 1 Ys 1-5 God of War full series Kingdom Hearts full series After looking over the full list of games, I think this is more or less accurate. Ultimately my goal is to avoid dragging on the project for even longer than it already will be. So for starters, I think I'll eliminate any games I've played before, as long as I feel I know enough about them to understand the later games: Starcraft Fallout 2 (last game I played before starting this project) Arkham Asylum 999 Bioshock MGS3 & Peace Walker Kingdom Hearts 1 & 2, Chain of Memories, Days (also watched Ventus' story from Birth by Sleep on Youtube.) I'll also remove any that are really long, or really numerous: Witcher 1 & 2 YS 1-5 Remaining Kingdom Hearts games Then I'll get rid of a couple that I just honestly don't want to play: Dead Space Uncharted 1-3 And lastly, I'll ask for some clarification on a few remaining ones: Kingsglaive FFXV: Isn't there a summary of this film at the start of FFXV? How necessary is it, in light of that? God of War 1-3: Is the 2018 game something of a soft reboot? How often does it rely on the stories of the previous games? Nier: There has already been some dispute on this one. I had the impression that Automata was set in the same world, but so far in the future compared to the first game that their overarching stories weren't very connected. Are there enough references to the original that I'll be missing out if I skip it? After all that, we're left with these: Portal Danganronpa Dragon Age 1 & 2 Trials in the Sky Ground Zeroes Just to quickly go over these individually: Portal: I was thinking of "sneaking in" this game without posting about it, but if there's any interest among you guys in reading about my playthrough, I can do it for the topic. Danganronpa: I guess I'll just play this game itself rather than resorting to a synopsis. It looks like the earliest American release for both Danganronpa games was on the Vita in 2014, so I'll play it once the topic reaches that point. Dragon Age: I've played part of the first one, but never really liked it enough to finish. I don't mind the thought of revisiting it, though, so I'll at least do that if people here are interested in it. Trails in the Sky: I'll probably play the first one when the topic is in 2011, after thinking about it more. I think it will be nice to have some space between the parts. Ground Zeroes: Should be a nice quick one. --- I'm playing every game from GotD 2020!
