Never played the Resident Evil games. I was going to pick up 5 and 6 on steam, since they're on sale.

Is it worth the time? What am I getting into?

Buy REmake and 4, since they're the good ones available on steam

Buy remake and 4, you stupid fucking faggot. it's your fault capcom is shit now. Go eat miyamotos rancid poop and regurgitate it so your mom can eat it and then she will poop it out so your dad can rub your ugly fucking face in it for eternity, you massive fucking faggot

Never saw LoGH. I was going to watch episode 12 and 19, since they showed up on my feed.

Is it worth the time? What am I getting into?

Already 2 other unique posters saying what I came to say.

Only pick up 5 if you have a friend that has it and wants to play.

Only pick up 6 if you are a huge fan of all things RE and have lots of extra cash. It isn't very good at all and that is being generous.

Are you implying that RE has a coherent, linear storyline?

That's why I was going to pick them up. They all look so vastly different from one another.

Yes. Yes, I am.

Well, REmake is the best classic style RE and RE4 is the best newer action RE. Don't mind any story except what is currently happening in the one you buy. I'm this guy. 6 and especially 5 are not terrible, but they aren't widely praised like crazy for a reason.

pick up REmake RE zero and 4.
then if you still care, play 5 and 6, but they're best played with a friend. the AI is frustrating at best, and utter garbage at worst.

Play 4 first to know what you're in for, only if you're interested for the long haul

or if you want to be a purist and above all pleb taste, play the original Resident Evil Director's cut, then RE2, REmake, Zero, then 3-6 in that order.

Only pick up 5 or 6 if you have a friend for co-op

5 is the last main line game you should play. It's great, not as good as 4, but still very solid.

6 is garbage that you should avoid.

Revelations 1 is alright, but is lacking. Rev2 is a huge step up if you still care about the series.

I recently purchased 4,5,6,Revelations, and Revelations 2 during the Summer sale and have been playing through them.

4 takes a bit to get used to the controls, but is a great game and well worth playing.

5 is a retread of 4 with co-op. It's pretty boring overall until Wesker comes into play though.

Revelations is a fun B-Movie romp that brings back the goofy shit. Cool stranded cruise ship environment. Fun story, fun characters, and fun overall game.

6 is more of 5, but is 20 god damn hours long. I liked it more than 5 at first, but it dragged on for so long that I ended up liking 5 more.

I'm currently playing Revelations 2, it seems like more of the first Rev but in a different environment, and I'm liking it.

4 > Rev > 5 > 6

Still judging Rev2

>6 is more of 5
casual spotted
6 is shit, but you are even more shit

REmake and 4 are the highmarks of their styles. go for those. 5 is good, but only really worth it if you have someone to play with. 6 you can take or leave. its OK, but there are better choices in the series, atleast that are available on steam.

Both Revs were all about Raid Mode for me. Rev2 had some interesting co-op too. Flashlight partner was "girlfriend mode".

6 is literally the worst game I have ever played.

You know how most bad games are just made with too many corners being cut, or the developers are inexperienced - or simply they wanted to cater to some audience and they ruin everything in the process?

Well, RE6 is legitimately the only AAA game I have ever seen that just feels like they deliberately wanted to make just the worst game possible. It's made to be bad. I've played this game in co-op. Everything is better in co-op. And first this game was, too. We were laughing at all the stupid things, as expected. But by the last 2 campaigns, the game just devolves completely into an unenjoyable, stupid mess.

RE6 manages to be mediocre at the best of times.

>starting with 4 5 6


Fucking kill yourself

buy remake Fuck zero

I started with DMC3,RE4 and do not plan on playing anything before those 2
Also fixed camera angles suck horse dick

Again
Fucking kill yourself

I'm not the same guy though
Tell me why I should play RE 1-3? How could it possibly have complex gameplay with a fixed camera??
and DMC 1-2? pls it's probably simplistic as fuck

Fuck off cunt. RE4 is the best in series.

people will tell you to avoid 5 like the plague and even more so 6 but here's the truth user. play them now. right now. if you wait until you play any other RE they will be vastly inferior but if you play them with no RE experience you will probably enjoy them. also find a buddy to play 5 with because the game is fucking awful with a AI teammate.

>it's one of those threads
oh man

Play remake, see how hard you get your shit pushed in.

Also 3.

RE4 is the best game ever made. The replay value alone makes it worth more than the rest of the franchise.

5 isn't that bad once you accept that its an arcadey action shooter.

REmake would be the best game in the series if 4 didn't exist. They're completely different games so its unfair to compare them but retards will do it anyway and REmake loses every time.

4 Is Okay
5 Improves upon everything that 4 did
6 is complete and utter fucking shit, don't listen to the I haed fun with friendz and mercs was good memers

>Sony babbies can't accept 4 is the peak of the series.

ignore this faggot who pretends like he's never played a sequel to a game first. the RE story is essentially episodic anyway with reoccurring characters. play whatever appeals to you and 0 is good too. this nigger just has shit taste all around.

Sony babies?

What the fuck are you on about you memeing piece of shit

I'd put Veronica after 3. It's kind of important to the plot, much more than 4.
>inb4 plot in RE

>5 Improves upon everything that 4 did

4 is good.

5 is ok only if you play with a friend. If not, meh

6 is utter shit.

5 and 6 are worth it if you have a friend to play through them with. 4 is well worth it on its own.
