I've never play this game, it's the canon version of 1G so I'd like to finish it at least once

Red/Blue are still nice to go back to every now and then for that sweet sweet nostalgia. Go for it.

Depends if you have patience. It's the game I've known the most about both inside and out for twenty years now, and even though it pales in comparison to some of the newer games, I still have a blast when playing them. Not to mention I research this game religiously and still find new things in its digital entrails.

I beat it a couple of months ago and i had a lot of fun, is true that it has problems but if you don't fight other people and just play it for fun i would say that you should give it a shot.

Just play FireRed/LeafGreen. They suck too, but it'll be far more content than you'll get playing the originals.

don't bother. based strictly on the quality of the games and not nostalgia or marketing, gen 1 was objectively bad even at the time and certainly doesn't hold up now.

Only if you play it expecting a retro RPG instead of a polished pokemon game.

FireRed/LeafGreen are more replayable for how modernized it is, fixed battle mechanics, and more gameplay depth

You can still play the originals, but don’t expect Red/Blue to be a flawless masterpiece.

yellow fucks up both the gym leaders and pokemon distribution.
Yellow has fucking zubat and rattata everywhere. Not even Red and Blue did that.

This. Don't miss out on the iconic music. At least listen to it on YouTube if you're not going to play the game.

Play through the first gym. Once you beat Brock, you'll have seen basically everything the game has to offer. That's not to say you should stop if you're having fun; by all means keep playing and beat it. I've beaten gen 1 game 9 times across Red and Yellow. If you're not having that much fun, though, just go play FireRed.

honestly you're probably better playing firered instead. red misses a lot of QoL changes like bag that gets filled with only 20 items (and it counts EVERYTHING, including key items), HMs without having to go to party screen, being able to tell what the fuck the new move does without consulting a guide, pokedex being better at showing where pokemon are, mechanics not being a buggy clusterfuck, and that's just off the top of my head

I enjoy it for It's simplicity in game play and graphics, and I like its story for actually feeling like you're being set back on your adventure (no matter how ridiculous the setback is) unlike the newer titles where the developers are pretty much set up a wall to say "fuck you beat this gym leader". That being said this game is a chore to go through.

At this point their age is novelty enough to play them. That and the chiptunes. You know most of what you'd need to know having played through the newer games anyway.

Gen 1 is still fun today because of the ultimate simplicity of it all and how broken things get, but Gen 2 just aged better overall. Also the Gen 1 music is way superior to the FRLG remixes. While I have issues with some of HGSS's remixes being overly bouncy, at least the core notes are the same. FRLG fucked that up big time.
