With God of War Ragnarök around the corner, a streamer I watch has been replaying God of War 2018 in preparation for Ragnarök's release. I don't think I'll be doing that myself, but I know I have done that in the past for games I just really love or want to get a refresher on the story of before I play the sequel. I can't remember many since I haven't done it in a long time, but I do know I've done it with the Ratchet & Clank Future quadrilogy before I played Rift Apart (part of the incentive there was also that I had never played Into The Nexus).
If I lack the time or interest to replay a game in preparation for its sequel, I'll usually just quickly brush up on the story via Wikipedia if I know the sequel will directly continue the story at all.
So how about you guys? Do you ever replay a game to get ready for its sequel or do you just play sequels without worrying too much about when you last played the previous game or how much you remember about it?
