Ys

Why is the play order so fucking complicated?

>6th game before the 3rd
It makes no sense.

Because you're stupid. The play order for anything is release order. If you don't like something, skip it.

the play order is "do not play ys 2 before ys 1". Everything else works as a standalone despite references to other games.

>Uhh the order is too hard
It's just remakes and 1 prequel

If you're going to play the entirety of a game series, you should always play them in release order.
Always.

>"yeah dude, play Ark after 1 & 2"
>play Ark
>tons of references to other games
>line in pic related is dropped at the end

Fuck you, Zig Forums.

Unless it's literally your job to do so (and even then most game journalists get away with bullshitting about games they never played) you should never feel obligated to play all the games in a series. It's very likely that you won't enjoy some of them and also entirely possible that you won't live long enough to make it through the whole series, so you should aim to play the ones that interest you as early as you can.

>entirely possible that you won't live long enough to make it through the whole series
ok fatty

There's no way to avoid references to games you haven't played unless you're playing the originals before the remakes.

You can tack on next year's Kefin remake after 9, btw.

theyre barely connected it literally doesnt fucking matter what order you play them in

I asked about the play order and someone posted pic related. The first two are pretty cheap on steam anyways so I'll just go with that.

What a fucking retarded post. Play the games instead of posting shit you know shit about.

Do you go from top to bottom of the list?

lads i gotta be honest. i fucking hate 1 and 2. enemies flipping around and instagibbing is a gay mechanic i don't have the patience to find how to exploit. I know there is something there because obviously there are people who fucking no-hit the final boss or w/e on insane and it seems like there are bosses and encounters that have cool mechanics but god damn I just can't stand it. Lacrimosa was S tier though and I rather enjoyed celcetta. Origins was dope as well. Playing through 7 right now.

Yes, but play order doesn't matter in Ys. Each game is self-contained.

There's nothing wrong with that order, it's just release order

It's not. You play them in release order you gigantic fucking retard. Why do you people have so much trouble with this?

>Release order
No, it's not. Play in any order you fucking want, retard. Lorefags deserve the rope.

The story literally doesn't matter. The story in Ys sucks and is extremely bare. You're playing it for the gameplay.

Play Oath, Felghana, Ark, C1 & C2, and VIII in whatever order.

Felghana is my personal favorite. Start with that.

Wait Kefin is getting remade finally? we'll finally get Ys 5?

literally this
i can't think of a single piece of media where the best order to consume them ISN'T just fucking RELEASE ORDER

Release order. Always release order, for anything. How many times do we have to tell you this?

Haruhi?
