That time a random guy on a forum told me to skip the first 3 episodes of Steins;Gate
I was struggling to get into Steins;Gate and someone on here said just skip the slow start and jump to episode 4. I did that and missed all the setup for the characters and the whole vibe. Ended up confused and had to go back and watch them anyway. Anyone else have a bad time following skipping advice on a show they were trying?

I read somewhere that the creator actually put important stuff in those early episodes on purpose. Like the whole show falls apart without that slow burn setup.

Ha! Yeah, I'm the guy who skips recaps and then acts confused.

Doubt it's that deep honestly. Plenty of shows work fine even if you miss a bit of early setup, and Steins;Gate's plot is pretty straightforward once it gets going.
