The division one has more enjoyable content overall. The div 2 is grinding from top to bottom with enjoyable things here and there. Thats about it

The first part is better. You will clearly feel the atmosphere of horror happening around you. A humanitarian disaster, diseases, weather conditions, people showed their best qualities and began to kill each other.
The second part has no soul. Just shooting enemies, searching for objects and beautiful graphics.

The Division 1 Has a more grim and dark style to it which is enjoyable, grinding is the number one thing you will do in that game you will also struggle greatly to find groups for any content like 90% of the time. Division 2, Grinding is less of an issue since you can target farm and getting a group is a lot easier. as for solo play, both are easy to solo in, division 1 has way more content locked behind groups, Division 2 is extremely solo friendly. But there is a trial version for both, so give that a try and see which one you would prefer, both are also on sale right now and both are worth playing.

Not a fan of the grim side of things...that part in this game is very disgusting to me...I just wanted to walk around a bit, and see the scenery that is all..

If you want an easy game, play TD1. It you want a 'more complex, lots of things to do', play TD2. First game is fixed, no more updates and will always be the same. Second, buggy and gets new ones added every now and then. If you just like to shoot at enemies, you can do that in both games. But leveling up your character is a must in the series.

The story is TD1 is much better, and if you don't care about it, skip dialog and walk out of the echo zones so it stops. I never cared about it that much, same with sequel in which it currently makes no sense anymore. Think it's their way of adding zombies.

I think TD2 is better in every way except story. I recommend getting the ultimate edition on the current discount. It has been my best purchase/most fun game for quite some time. I only play solo, and like the game a hell of a lot.

Buyng the 1 only because 2 is bugged not is good to say. The 2 is enjoable and the bugs not block you to play the game well. Of course the 1 is only for the story and survival but for end game is better the 2.

I played TD2 first, and then got TD1 recently when it was at low price. I havent got very far in TD1 yet (lvl16) so cant comment about higher levels and end-game - but my view is that BOTH are good 3rd person shooter games. I tend to agree with other comments that TD1 has a better "atmosphere". But at lower levels TD1 is harder than TD2 - you will die far more easily even by lower level npc enemies. Some grinding in TD1 is necessary at lower level just to get gear and hp so you are less squishy. Either way - if you like one you will like the other. I'm talking entirely from solo / pve viewpoint because thats how I play both games.

Both of them is better in coop. Of course can solo but on end game have a missions cannot be done alone because the game aim for coop.

If you just want to "walk around a bit - and see the scenery" then you should definitely go for Div2.

For one thing, Div2 takes place in DC, which has many more interesting landmarks and varied environments than NYC. And for once, Ubisoft actually make good use of these iconic backdrops (Lincoln Memorial, the White House, etc). You also get forests and swamps in the main game.

NYC is just an endless parade of skyscrapers, and Div1 is graphically similar to scrolling through IKEA's web shop (not surprising considering the game is made by Swedish studios). But the overall feel is very bland and pastel-coloured (just like every IKEA furniture you've ever seen). Even most of the vehicles are thinly disguised Volvos - and I swear I'm not making this up!

For another thing, if you buy Div2 on the €10 Steam sale now, you also get the Warlords of New York DLC. You can then decide to move directly to the DLC area and get a 30-level boost before firing a single shot. All ares are now Level 30, including the DC areas.

Of course, enemies are always at your level, but the weapons and gear start at Level 30, which allows for a much more interesting and balanced gameplay. You get much better equipment right off the bat, and you will feel much more inclined to walk around the whole map and enjoy the scenery and the buildings.

First is far FAR better.

Get both. They'e both phenomenal games.

They both have some ups and downs that really come down to personal preference. For instance- the guns sound “meatier” in the first game which is cool, but the movement feels more fluid in the second. And that’s just one man’s opinion.

The truth is that they both follow the Ubisoft formula of “turn off your brain and mindlessly run around and shoot things to collect colorful rewards.”

If you liked one you’ll like the other, and vice versa.

"The truth is that they both follow the Ubisoft formula of “turn off your brain and mindlessly run around and shoot things to collect colorful rewards.”"

that is sadly the conclusion I made about both....which makes me want to not bother with either....as most games just feel like a huge waste of time.

I say Div2. But only from "endgame" on. And I only play it the way to switch my brain off for a few hours - there are cool options/missions/buildings to do so in Div2.

Div1 has the much better atmosphere. The lighting/atmospheric effects are close to horrible in Div2. But everything else feels really very good plus there are enough players around (which you do need to get some good stuff from legendary missions).
Buy 1, test it for an hour > refund
