Never played these hack n slash type of games before. Was never my cup of tea, but I'm willing to give em a shot. Beyonetta, DMC, MGR. Where should I start

Metal gear rising first. It’s short, amazing and HYPE as fuck OST. only problem is you will never see another entry for the series.
It's no Sekiro
Dante's Inferno
MGR is a pretty good starting point, especially if you are already a Metal Gear fan. Otherwise the DMC series (I'd recommend 1 or 3 but you could probably go straight to 5 if you really want to) or the older God of War games as a good starting point. Bayonetta is my favorite but I personally think it's one of those games you can really only appreciate when you have enough familiarity with the genre to understand everything it does right.
action games =/= hack and slash desu.
i've never played DMC but bayonetta is top tier. play bayonetta 1 first
MGR if you played metal gear yeah
MGR. Short and packed with quality. Abit simple though. Bayonetta and DMC have too much padding.
stay away from musou games (dynasty warriors type games)
they are mind numbingly boring
MGR has no ties with MGS. In fact, it's so ridiculous you shouldn't even try to understand it as a MGS fan.
heres a rudimentary list of games you should / shouldnt play
>PLAY
DMC1
DMC3
DMC5
MGR
BAYONETTA
NINJA GAIDEN II
NINJA GAIDEN BLACK
OLD GOD OF WAR
>DONT PLAY
DMC2
DmC
DMC4 (it isnt bad but it isnt required, you arent missing out on anything)
BAYONETTA 2
NIER AUTOMATA
NEW GOD OF WAR
thats all i can think of off the top of my head
Appreciate this well put answer.
Honestly, this might be why I avoided hack and slash games from the start. I touched a dynasty warrior game on my 360 a long time ago and was absolutely turned off.
kill yourself shill
You're right. It's much better.
MGR is definitely the best start
Not a bad Should Play but don't see what's wrong with Bayonetta 2, it's fun. Nier Automota isn't too bad but not fully in the genre I suppose.
>Don't play NIER AUTOMATA
No, everyone should play this game.
It's just not entirely what OP is looking for.
>dont play DMC4, Bayo2, NieR Automata
>play old God of War
You're a faggot. I don't even have anything against God of War, but fuck you.
dude, if anything MGR is the least ridiculous entry of Metal Gear series
FUCK YOU!
You should play MGR first, the soundtrack is sick.

>play old GoW
GoW has been historically shunned by the cuhrayzee/character action game threads on Yea Forums for over a decade because it's brainless, only reason people are pretending to like it now is because "muh nu-GoW"
>don't play DMC4, Bayo 2 or Nier:A
All of those games are easily better than GoW retard
>nu-GoW
Not even the same genre anymore, there's no reason to even mention it
DMC is my favorite series of all time, with 3 being my favorite game. You could add NieR: Automata, God of War 1-3 (not nu GoW) and Darksiders to your list of games to try too. If you like those, Astral Chain comes out in a few months, it's something I'm interested in personally. All 3 you listed are also good.
MGRR is the easiest and most penetrable. From there go to Bayonetta as it's got more in common with MGRR but with added depth and quirks. From there either go into Bayo2 or jump into DMC.
Throw in others in between any of these games if you want.
God, why did Kojima sell his soul (MGS) to Konami. I want more Raiden
Bayo for beginners. Onece you get some ecperies, go the DMC. Then once you've finished 4 you can check out MGR and DMC5.
Some other action games in dead franchises that you might want to check out are Ninja Gaiden 1-2 and God of War1-3
Kojima had nothing to do with MGR
Metal Gear might be a good beginning for starters.
It's extremely casual because it had to sell to Metal Gear fans and it is okay as babbies' first action game until you graduate into actually good action games
some musou games play a little differently
>samurai/dynasty
go around a map killing random generals
>one piece/hyrule warriors
take control of "zones" and then fight the generals/bosses
I love hack and slash but Dynasty Warriors is dog shit.
that's gonna be a HUGE MOTHA FUCKIN YIKES FROM ME DAWG
