I would recommend it if you want to know the entire story as parts of the game wont make sense if you haven't played the others.But it's no required to play the others. Hope I helped and please rate my answer

You can if you want....there are a lot of games. Playing the fourth then the fifth will help. It doesn't matter. They will tell you what happens throughout the game.

You don't need to follow the whole story but if you want to learn what happened and how all of it began to happen. I would try to follow the story.

I think it would be better if you had an idea of what the story is before you play resident evil 5. Well if you want to save some cash instead of buying all of the resident evil games you could just buy resident evil 5 and it contains a file that is the complete history of resident evil. Very brief though. Hope I Helped.
