I've been trying to make myself play every Ultima, Wizardry and M&M game from the first to last for like, four years now.
Well, I've gotta start one day, and I've decided that that day is tomorrow (or the day after it, depending on when i finish with my work). In other words, summer is on, gayiz!
Now, I played a bit (really, just a bit) of M&M 3 and M&M 4, and I've played shit ton of M&M7 and M&M8. I've also been a big fan of HoMM series, playing tons of 2, 3 and 4 (I dont care what anybody says, HoMM4 is a good game. Not nearly as great as HoMM3, vastly different, but still good). I've also played 5, but no NWC - no HoMM/MM, so that doesn't count.
Now, I'm thinking of playing all the games chronologically, with Heroes games thrown in for some variety, so I don't burn out so fast. Any tips, advice, good sites with item/class/map information, etc. Is this good idea at all? Also, how much do Heroes games offer to the story? And, I've gotta ask, is M&M 1 worth it? It just looks really clunky, and god damn old. Graphics wise, M&M 2 is right up my alley, but M&M 1 is just... Well, you know, too god damn hideous. It looks even worse than bloody Kings Quest 1.
Oh well, go ahead guys, enlighten me with wisdom, and burn me with the flame of righteousness since I think M&M 1 is hideous, while I haven't played most of the classic M&M games.
