Should I bother with his other work? I honestly can't tell if I'm being filtered or not.

Nietzsche writes in aphorisms, so his ideas are never explicitly stated, at least to a degree that one might expect from philosophical texts. Try finding your own meaning/interpretation of his work; after all, his work only has value so far as it influences. you

also, he's for sure one of those authors that are almost ruined by translation, you are essentially never reading his own words

Read Beyond Good and Evil first. It’s a more comprehensive view of his philosophy.

I might be retarded but I tried him in original (erm, translated) and it didn't quite grab me, but I tried some lectures covering this book and I quite liked them
