I'm playing Adventurer because I want to "breeze through". I bought the GOG MM1-6 special at 2.75$ and I want to play them now...

... Is that suicide? Is MM1-4 aged well? I heard 5-6 was still ok.

I'd skip 1 unless you are hardcore nostalgic for 80s era RPGs. 2 is good if you emulate the Genesis version, they actually did a really nice port that is way better than the PC version. 3 4 and 5 are still excellent and have aged really well. 6-9 are just way too ugly for me to even bother playing, also don't like the new party system of those games that is unfortunately perpetuated in 10.

Narrow class variety and only 4 characters. I didn't like that part of the games either, for what it's worth.

Yes exactly this.

I have a really hard time skipping games in a series but given that Xeen doesn't really have any connection to the earlier games, I'll probably do that. It looks like 6 - 8 are pretty much their own entities as well, though I understand 7 has some connection to the party from 3. I'm just worried that Xeen might be way too long for me since it apparently dwarfs X.

I love 2 and 3, but World of Xeen (4 and 5 installed together to make one mega rpg) is the absolute epitome of the series.
