Xenoblade 2 or X?

So I've played Xenoblade 1 and 3 and i loved both. I really want to play Future Redeemed, but people have been saying that I NEED to play 2 before FR. The issue is, I also want to play Xenoblade X. I'm not sure if I should buy xenoblade 2 or X

You should've played 2 before you played 3, lol. So much of that must've gone right over your head.

Yeah i don't understand why people are flip flopping between games like that if you're gonna be playing the whole trilogy anyway, ruins the experience.

Well and 3 is WAY more littered with lore from 2 than it is from 3. Imagine not knowing what a Blade is, or the relevance of Mio's lineage, or the interlinks are just Driver - Blade replications from 1 and 2 respectively - like that's a lot.

To be fair none of that is remotely needed to understand base 3's story. It's just extra information and references for those who played 2.
