It takes place decades after those but it's worth playing because it's an awesome game with probably the final boss fight in gaming history

I mean I wouldn’t have been surprised if 4 had brought up some weird important retcon that I would need to know for those other games but I am good playing direct sequels to 3

Yeah you're good. Ideally you'd play 4 next but playing PW and V will probably make 4 extra bonkers

Ocelot is in all of them, of course, but pretty much everybody else who shows up in those games is dead by 4 so there's not a lot of crossover. They're basically unrelated.

i got into the series with snake eater, then i played 1, then ground zeroes, then half of peace walker, then 5, then 2 then 4 and finished peace walker some time after 5. so it doesnt really matter, if you wanna learn about thecharacters and story and stuff then youll go out of your way to do it anyway.

The stuff between 2.0 credits and the start of 3.0 is as long as the game you just played and also there's no gameplay, it's like 95% cutscenes

Mystic Warriors (1CC)

Total playtime: 31:01

Finally got it yesterday afternoon (right before I had to leave for a birthday party so no time to celebrate lol). Amazing game; graphics and music are top-notch and the mechanics, while flawed, lend themselves well to a kind of Shinobi-but-faster experience. Biggest problem with the game is that it's just kind of unfair, and the difficulty is unbalanced. There are nine stages in the game and six is by far the hardest. Disregarding the bulk of the stage, which is very difficult but can be memorized and patterned out for the most part, the boss is super random and will often dish out undodgeable bullet patterns. On top of this, the game gets real stingy with its food drops on that stage, where you only get one at the boss if you've already died. It's basically a crapshoot for even a very skilled player to clear that stage without dying. Fortunately the rest of the game is very doable with one life.

Upgraded this to a no-miss clear just now. Unfortunately wasn't recording it but I'm confident I could do it again.

I liked it a lot and I tackled it I think way earlier in the story than they want you to but it was practically like a whole game itself and I am like way overleveled for the actual story now lol

Cool setting though. This game is high quality poo poo.
