This is the order I'm going by.
*****

1. Resident Evil 1 (COMPLETED on 3/17/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3, 4 and final thoughts.)
2. Resident Evil 2 (COMPLETED on 3/27/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3, 4 and final thoughts.)
3. Resident Evil 3: Nemesis (COMPLETED on 4/13/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3 and final thoughts.)
4. Resident Evil: Code Veronica (COMPLETED on 4/23/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3, 4 and final thoughts.)
5. Resident Evil REmake (COMPLETED on 5/6/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3, 4 and final thoughts.)
6. Resident Evil Zero (COMPLETED on 5/17/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3 and final thoughts.)
ACTION RESIDENT EVIL
7. Resident Evil 4 (COMPLETED on 6/7/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3, 4 and final thoughts.)
8. Resident Evil 5 (COMPLETED on 8/23/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3, 4 and final thoughts.)

10. Resident Evil 6 (COMPLETED on 11/10/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and final thoughts.)
11. Resident Evil Revelations 2 (COMPLETED on 12/14/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3 and my final thoughts.)
FIRST PERSON RESIDENT EVIL
12. Resident Evil 7 (COMPLETED on 12/22/2018! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3 and my final thoughts.)
THE NEWEST RESIDENT EVIL
13. Resident Evil RE2make (COMPLETED on 2/2/2019! See my progress updates: 1, 2, 3 and my final thoughts.)
=EXTRA STUFF=
(I'm not going through ALL the spin-offs, since some of them, like Outbreak, were focused on online that is no longer fully functional, and others, like Dead Aim, I simply don't have the hardware to fully enjoy. I decided that I was most interested in the ones below.)
SPIN-OFF GAMES
Resident Evil 1.5, Resident Evil Gaiden, Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles, Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles (See my final thoughts.)
NON-GAME RESIDENT EVIL
Resident Evil Comics (See my final thoughts.)
Resident Evil Novels (See my final thoughts.)
Resident Evil Movies (See my final thoughts.)
*****
When I say that I'm playing these for the first time, I mean it. With the exception of RE1, which I played a little of back in the day (but never beat or got very far), I am a newbie to the series. I know who characters like Jill, Chris and Wesker are, and I have a rough idea of the plot of certain games, but the vast majority of stuff is new to me.
I never really wanted to play the series while growing up because I was a weenie and too scared of survival horror. I've since become interested in the genre, though, and I actually played through Sweet Home, the Famicom game that inspired the first RE, recently and loved it. It only seemed natural to tackle all of these games next!
I'm making this thread to track my progress and share my thoughts and screenshots. Hope it's entertaining!

FINAL EDIT on 3/16/19: After a year's worth of Resident Evil, this thread came to an end. Thanks for following along. It's been wild.
