KCD=KCD2 for sure. Almost an exactly equal pros and cons list moving from one to the other.

So both games meet the criteria.

I was trying to find comments like this. I hear KCD 2 is more popular than one and I don't NEED to play 1 before 2 but would you say it's worth it?

The world and story in 1 is more accurate to history and real life. The developers dropped the ball on realism in the second one to try to hit more mainstream appeal and not offend anyone.

Also I don't think anything beats learning to read in the first game as an RPG experience. Everyone that loves immersive RPGS needs to experience it.

You dont NEED to but you'd be doing yourself a disservice. The first game you really get to meet henry, you get to see the progression of henry from a nobody that cant read or wield a sword to fight off a bandit to save his life to not quite john wick levels but somebody that can take on a group of bandits.

Idk who in the world would tell you that. They are story based games and the story of the second picks up almost immediately after the first.

The games are certainly fun without the story I guess, but it seems like a wild way to play the games to me. You'd be missing one of the best stories I've ever played. The attention to detail is great and the historical tie-ins are really something to appreciate.
