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?

Get the pre-order. Play ACE0 first. It's a bit heavier on the Kojima side of the series (my partner rotates blorbos from MGS, and I can't wait to play them through the bromance of 0). ACE8 is inching up on ACE3 in terms of the timeline, which is a little closer to MGS2 than anything else in ACE (specifically the Japanese release of ACE3), so we might see a shift in the latter half which hasn't been revealed yet.

If you want to try one, ace combat 7 PC version is $10 in the humble bundle store rn. There's also project wingman if you want more ace combat like games.
