I don't know how big The House of the Dead arcade game series is on here, but it's literally my favorite game series of all time despite its flaws, and i want to rant about it even if no one sees this. Major spoilers for those who haven't played the games btw.
When they announced the remake of The House of the Dead, I was so excited bc I grew up playing 2 & 3 for the Wii, and still play to this day and never got the chance to play 1, 4, or Scarlet Dawn.
After playing 1, it gave me so much more insight as to how certain reactions work in depth for 2 and especially 3. 3 is very important to have knowledge of 1 about before playing, because it makes the true depth as to what they were trying to accomplish really sink in. For 1, Rogan and G go through Curien's mansion and what not, and go through a lot of grief trying to kill their way to Curien himself. 1's impact on 2 isn't as major as it is for 3, but it's still very important because it shows James and Gary interacting with G, and G mentions the Curien case. If you had no prior knowledge to 1, then you would think this G fellow is just another AMS agent who read up on the file of some giant case that happened nearly 2 years prior instead of someone who was actually there. 1 really sets in stone how important G is to the franchise, and continues that trend for 2 and 3. 1 also reveals how important Rogan is to the overall story with the reveal of him being Lisa's father, along with knowledge of Curien's importance with his history with Rogan, makes the reveal that Daniel is Curien's son so much more important. The final fight with Daniel and Lisa is so important because it has the children of two people who were sworn enemies fighting together against the one who started the franchise. I could probably yap about more stuff relating to this game, such as how in depth G really is and how massive the implications of his character is for the franchise, and for the message that he sends to the gaming world, but I'm too tired for that rn. Thank you and goodnight ๐ด
Side note: there's at least one big boss and one animal boss in each game, and I think it's funny enough to point out.
