To answer the question, it's not absolutely necessary to play DR1, 2, or Ultra Despair Girls in order to play through and enjoy DR V3.

Actually, from a certain point of view, it may be a better choice to specifically *not* play any of the games prior to this one... or watch the anime's, read the novels, et. al.

Well, DR V3 holds a Spoiler to DR1. It might not break the game, since all Main DR Games are standalone for themselves, so you can basically play them in any order.
And all Games are very good, so if you are into this kind of games play them all and if you do, better play them in release order.

I didn't play Despair girls, though.

Bruh don't even, xD. You need to play Danganronpa 1 and Super Danganronpa 2 before Danganronpa V3. It's absolutely necessary, xD. Especially if you didn't know what was going on in the demo.

Yes, this game spoils a bunch of plot points from the other games and going slightly into spoiler territory here but some of the events near the end of the game kinda rely on you at least knowing what happened in the other games

Don't read the spoiler mark, although it doesn't spoil much, you might not want to know that. But the guy I am replying to is correct...I avoided saying it, but this game spoils a whole bunch of deaths in DR1 and SDR2.

I would recommend to play previous game first. Sure I heard a bunch of Japanese newcomers play v3 first without much problems, but like other people has said, Danganronpa actually has interconnected stories, and constantly talk about several events that happened in previous games as both plot and references.

Well I tried to avoid saying it, but yes, that's the truth.

Yes because they are awesome. Note that they both have Overwhelmingly Positive scores while this game only has Very Positive scores.

You don't have to, but you will get a lot more of the references if you do. Which would also make the 'big reveal' at the end both make more sense and have more impact.

This game is pretty much the ending of the series (in theory). So to get that full impact of the ending you may want to play the other games first. Not only are they good in their own right, but it puts the wham of the ending to better effect.

Um, yes. Why would you play the third game in a series?
Some series don't require you to play the previous games, so it is a valid question.

The only reasons this game doesn't have OP reviews is becasue of either the price or the ending.

Mostly because of the ending, but that's entirely true.

For me, the price was fine... the ending was definitely not.

That leads to my comment earlier in this thread... I think that if I had not invested the time and effort (about 200 hours through multiple playthroughs on both PC and Vita) into DR1 and 2, I probably would've liked (or at least appreciated) the ending to V3 a lot more.
