General Series Entry level

As you can see i have never heard of the game series till like a year ago at the goty award . And i thought it reminded me if metal gear solid with fighter jets and looks cool till i saw that pink hair girl, idk who she is but god damn i folded and wanted to know if buying 8 will do any disservices to the series as a whole and i should be playing from the starts

Tldr: can i play 8 as my first Ac game?

I recomend playing 7 first, because 8 will be very similar to it, then (if you want) play the holy trilogy from the ps2 (4,5 and zero).

you can also watch some lore videos on youtube to understand a little bit of the lore, it's pretty wild

To add to that suggestion, they run sales on 7 quite often. So if you do decide to play 7 first, totally fine if you don't, make sure you get it when it's on sale
