I absolutely adore this franchise. This is a fantastic sequel to Portal and really dove into the story. I loved the character developments and the push to use even more critical thinking than in the first game. If you like puzzle and logic games, this is a fantastic first person opportunity to play one. The first game may be useful for gaining more simplistic portal puzzle experience, but it's not necessary. It really comes down to whether or not you would feel like you're missing something or if you're in it for the story.
