I will burn my dread.

The only wrong Ys game to start with is Ys 2.

(I kid. I just kind of feel like Ys 2 is a slog compared to the other games, even Ys 1.)

It's also a direct continuation of Ys 1, so it's extra a bad one to start with.

I asked some friends about Ys and they slammed this link at me which is apparently like the Ys launching pad with multiple avenues of game order progression you can choose from like it's a video game moral choice.

Jesus, just play them in any order you like there's little if any continuity, other than Y 1&2 which are virtually impossible to get separately anyway.


Not V though

Well, from my memory, you should be able to trivially play Memories of Celceta, Ys Origin, and Ys 7, since the first two are Vita games and the third is a PSP game. I know there's a PSP release of Ys 1+2 Chronicles, I just don't know if it's available.

The vita version of Origin is trash unfortunately. I love the game but that version is unstable and has lots of hitching and framedrops, especially during bosses which is when you need that poo poo least. Avoid!

This is a fair point, I've never played that version of the game and you can easily get a good experience elsewhere.

I own Ys: Origin and Oath in Felghana on Steam and Ys: Origin on PS4, these two are the ones I've played so far and liked them a lot. Is there any other on PS4 worth playing?

Ninja edit: seems that I own Ys I and II on Steam too.

Memories of Celceta just recently came to PS4 and is definitely worth checking out. It was my first Ys game, and I really enjoyed it.

I was really underwhelmed by 8, so much so that I just couldn't finish it. Honestly, I'm not too excited for 9, but I really hope it's better.

No Nioh 1 upgrade, Nioh 2 is a free upgrade (if you own the base game you get the ps5 Nioh 2 base game. And you get dlc for ps5 if you own it on ps4)

For what it's worth here are some of the deals in Best Buy Canada's flyer for Black Friday, should give a general idea of what some BF prices might look like. Note that there are no discounted PS4 console bundles listed. All prices are in CAD. All listings are for PS4 versions of games.

Death Stranding (PS4) - $29.99 (regularly $49.99)
FIFA 21 (PS4) - $39.99 (regularly $79.99) [upgrades to PS5 version for free when available December 4th. Must redeem PS5 upgrade before FIFA 22's release in late 2021 (August-October)]
FIFA 21 DualShock 4 Wireless Controller Bundle (PS4) - $99.99 (regularly $129.99) [controller only works on PS5 for PS4 versions of games]

However, will export save to PS5 version with a to-be-released patch] (this should be a "vanilla version" disc with a season pass PSN voucher, expect beefy download to be required)

Congratulations!
Amazon Canada just dropped all the Greatest Hits titles plus Kingdom Hearts 3 to $9.99 CAD and BestBuy Canada dropped them to match. I’m guessing there will be a similar sale on PSN as we get a little closer to Black Friday.

Snagged physical copies of Horizon Zero Dawn, Kingdom Hearts 3 and Nioh for $30. :hellyeah:

A note for PS5 havers: If you get a disc PS4 game that has a free PS5 upgrade, this takes the form of an upgrade pack purchased for free through the store. This means you'll need a PSN account for an appropriate region of the discs you're upgrading (e.g. if you're in Europe and import discs from the US or Asia you will need to roll a North American or Asian PSN account for the purposes of downloading the PS5 upgrade client). If you absolutely want a self-contained disc with no PSN requirement you will have to get the PS5-only disc versions.
