i would recommend playing it

but be prepaired to basically read a book

the second ones gameplay is much better, BUT the first one is necessary to play the second

and the dlc is very substantial in the second game, thats always nice having substantial dlc

be warned the writing in the first game feels a little. . . . forced

the second game has much superior writing, albeit there are more plot holes in the second

its definitly a game where you want to play the whole series

i might even recommend waiting for the third game
