Hi, I've read the sticky at the top, but I'm still wondering which GW to get, I prefer PvE games, but I'm wondering which has the best gameplay and which is overall the best game. If anyone could make any suggestions I'd be grateful

Nightfall is probably the best PvE from a gameplay perspective. That said, playing Prophecies as your first campaign is generally a good idea, as the learning curve is much less steep then in the other two campaigns.

i'd say prophecies still is the best game.

it has a good learning curve, lasts quite long and has an ok storyline.

Nightfall gives you access to Heroes, sure, but if you're just starting out figuring out a skillbar and getting equipment for your own character will be hard enough. Having to do the same for an army of Heroes could be a bit of a turn off.

i'd say start with prophecies : it should be cheap now and it still is a kickass campaign. If you enjoy it you can always decide to go and get Nightfall or EoTN for heroes and extra content ...

I prefer nightfall over the other two. But if you like very long adventures, go with Prophecies

if you are only getting one, make it prophecies. it has about 3 times as much content as factions and the learning curve is quite gradual.

I would have to recommend prophecies, it is the largest of the three campaigns, it has a nice learning curve, and has arguably the best pace of the three.
