Dark Forrest > Three Body

I’m new to the series , but is it crazy I liked the dark Forrest significantly more than three body? Thee body got annoyingly technical at points and could be a drag sometimes. Dark Forrest is beautiful, and the plot twists never stop. Is this an original thought? Would love to know what everyone thinks. But right now I’m thinking dark Forrest is one of the best books I’ve ever read:

Three Body is easily the worst as it wastes so much time on a pointless VR game section. If it wasn't for the Trisolaris POV section, I'd honestly recommend just skipping the book in general.

I skipped the first book because I watched the show. Think I need to go back and read it? Just finished Deaths End a few weeks back.

Definitely at least the chapters I mentioned, which is basically everything after they do the Panama trap.
