I've never played a "Musou" game before and wondered, if i were to pick only ONE game of this genre, would this be the one to get on PS4, or should i opt for Hyrule Warriors on WiiU instead?
(Or perhaps should I go for one of the other 'Warriors' titles?).

They're all kinda hack n slash in a way, so go with which theme you prefer. Hyrule Warriors was VERY good though!

Since this one was successful especially in Japan they're making a sequel to this releasing later this year, DQH2, it will include coop multiplayer etc

I bought this at £18.99 (Christmas time) but my backlog games have been way too many any and I've been so hooked to MGSV that I never even got round to unpack it. I have been a fan of this game since PS1 but I've heard this one has a very different gameplay.

I have it. I'm not a fan. It's very different to the other titles in the series. Basically a tower defence game, similar to orcs must die. Found I was playing it just because of spending £20, and not enjoying it.
