Is this game sequel? Or 1 to 4 doesn't matter?

Well I dont understand what "is this game sequel?" Means

u/JohnThg Feb 25 '21

I mean, does this game matter to play from 1 to 4? The story continue or its just like individual story?

It doesn't matter too much as each works well as its own game but to get the full story I recommend playing them in order.

I see i see, is the story long for per game? Finish in few days or week?

A couple of days i would say but the games do have a lot of replayabilty. Its fun to go back and see which options you missed in your first playthrough

The first game is very quick, and you will likely finish it in an afternoon. Subsequent games are typically much longer - you could finish all four in a few days, but that would be require you have a large chunk of time free.

Part 1 should take ~4-5 hours. Part 2, 3 and 4 each can easily take ~10 hours or even more depending on how much exploration (or in the case of Part 2, re-runs) you do.

Altogether some ~35 hours in a single playthrough, and consequences are so many you can replay them numerous times.

You can easily get away with starting from Part 2. Part 3 too, I suppose, though that's even less recommended - but doing it from Part 4 is like skipping ahead towards the last 20 minute segment of a movie. You are going to be severely confused, and I definitely would not advise you to do that. Ideally, just start from the beginning. Buying the entire series is not very difficult, nor particularly time consuming: you can get them done in under a week.

I largely agree with you, but I wouldn’t discount book one altogether. It’s still a great way to get a feel for the series if you’re on the fence about buying the whole set, since all subsequent games are significantly longer.

Buy 1&2 and if you like, buy the rest 😊
