Can you be a "big fan" of a game series if you didn't follow it from the start?
Basically I am extremely excited for Uncharted 4, but apparently I am a "fake fan" because I didn't have the previous three games on release. I did not get a PS3 until 2015, but I did buy all three Uncharted games for it and loved them so much that I went ahead and bought the Nathan Drake collection for PS4.
My friend seems to think I am a "fake fan" and just riding the bandwagon because he was there from the start and I was not. The funny thing is, I could probably beat him in a quiz about Uncharted despite him being a real fan.
It doesn't bother me too much as I know that I am a huge fan of the series and the developers... I just wanted to post on here since you are all gamers and my friends on Facebook or in real life probably do not know what a gamer is.
Thank you :-)

Yes you can , if you play Witcher 3 and then decide to play the other two and get the same amount of enjoyment and then decide to play them all again in order , why not.

Editado por ItsJackAttack: 4/15/2016 6:43:21 PMAbsolutely. Take Harry Potter, for example. I know tons of people who were born after the first few books were published, and they're massive fans, like myself. Also, your friend here reminds me of someone I used to be friends with. He acted like he knew EVERYTHING, and countered everything I said with some BS nonsense that he claimed to do research on. He seemed to be enlightened by some ridiculous self-made concept. I told him I was doing my job very well on a group project, and he launched himself into an argument about how it's not a job if you don't get paid. I ditched him and didn't regret it.

I think you still can be a "big fan". I've been with Dark Souls from the start, but never bothered beating 2 or Bloodborne.
-
Absolutely. If you enjoy a game, then... well, you enjoy the game!

Yeah I recently just got an Xbox 1 last summer with halo MCC on it and I think it's my favorite game series
-
Definitely! I'm a big MGS fan (except The Phantom Pain!) but I'm a bit young to have been around for the original Metal Gear Games haha. The hours I've spent on wiki and the like *shudders..* I think I'm a true lover of that title lol

2 RespuestasOf course, I'm a monster hunter fan but I only recently got into the newer games ,amongst other examples

Fact: Yes

Well, if you were excited for Uncharted 4 when you haven't played the others that's different but as long as you have played the others in a series then I think you are fine. You could play the whole series a few days before release but I wouldn't care, I'd me surprised that you hadn't played them before but other then that you're fine. The people telling you that you aren't 'real fans' are just being elitist, too elitist.
-
It doesn't matter when you were exposed to the games, if you enjoy them, you are a fan. End of story. Don't worry what anyone else says. Also, U4 is gonna be great. I hope Chloe makes a comeback. She was a badass.

1 RespuestaAbsolutely.

1 RespuestaEditado por Sapphire: 4/14/2016 5:52:35 AMAbsolutely. The first Mass Effect game I played was Mass Effect 3. Not long after, I bought Mass Effect 1 and 2. I've probably done like 7 or 8 playthroughs of the series now. It is my favourite series of games. [spoiler]My fandom for the game even had me create a roleplaying account on Twitter for a while...[/spoiler]

1 RespuestaLook at Halo. Many people haven't been there from the start who've helped destroy the series.
-
Of course.
-
I'd certainly say so. You can be born long after a band, composer or artist becomes famous and still be a "big fan". Why would games work any differently?
-
Of course you can. You're friend just likes to gloat and stuff because he liked it first.
-
Yes you can.
-
I think so
-
1 RespuestaI guess...provided you go back and play the older titles? I mean I know a fair few who started Halo on3/Reach and yet consider themselves big fans wether or not they've played the previous game or read into the lore.
-
Of course you can
-
As long as you catch up with everything and learn the positives and negatives before you start preaching about them
-
Tell your friend to go -blam!- himself lol
