1 or 2 House Flipper

[Be kind]

I can see that both games done a great job, still wondering if it's better to play the first game first? or I will have everything (from the first one) and even more by playing the second game?

I'd get the second game. they've done a great job with the second. mechanics, furniture, etc., everything is amazing.

For example, WALLS. now, you can build by the individual little block, rather than a whole segment of a wall. In addition, you can paint each little square differently, so you can customize much more. This, among other things, make the game totally worth the money. I can provide additional reasons if you'd like, but for the sake of keeping this short, i'll end this here.

TL;DR: 2 is MUCH better imho, walls ROCK

Thank you for the info, maybe my question turned to be complicated so I edited it.
I will play the second one, But wanted to know if its better to play the first one before the second one or I will not miss anything if i ignore the first one and start the franchise with the second one.

I just got both, they were on sale as a bundle. I'm playing 1 first and then 2. Gives me more of it, since there's not DLC for 2 or workshop mods.

Yep, also minute ago I did find that developers are releasing a DLC for the first game, 2 weeks later, It means developers thinks the first game is not ended by releasing the second one so... I will play in the order.
Thank you too.

Ohh okay! Yeah, i did play the first one beforehand, but there's not really too much of a story to follow. 1 is cheap enough atm, so if you want to have that bit more to play, i'd reccomend grabbing the first.

Otherwise, I'd just hop into the second! You wont miss anything, dont worry!

Just a side note, the DLC released for HF1 was announced to be the last DLC for that game.

Also, a DLC for HF2 is going to be announced within the next couple of days/along side of the upcoming update.

[Everybody do the flop]

1 in terms of number of jobs, plus you can mow lawns. 2 has a lot more customisation, but not many jobs sadly.

I put in over 700 hours in HF1 because I was late to the party and there was so much DLC. I loved it. So far, I am not a big fan of HF2. I would definitely recommend playing HF1 and its DLCs first. By the time you get to HF2, maybe it will have more content? If your jam is sandbox mode and building your own houses, then go for HF2 first, perhaps.

I loved the first game, but they upgraded HF2 so well, that I stopped playing HF1. Both are great though!

Which HF to play first? Definitely 2, save the better for last. HF1 is far better

depends, 2 has a cartoonier gamier vibe, and focuses more on mechanics of building than actual flipping.
however, 1 is really limited in what you CAN do, sure it feels more like genuinely flipping a house, but it cant do alot of what 2 can (drop down ceilings (not sure about floors yet), customizing items specifically to fit an area, custom size rugs and pictures).

Overall both are great, 1 is better if you wanna feel like your a one man HGTV that ISNT preying on the vunerable, especially with selling a house as it feels more like a auction and like a bidder won, but you can ask more.
2 is better if you wanna get into the exacts of flipping, making everything perfect, with perfect recessed lighting say in a kitchen, or raised platform whatever, you can get the house EXACTLY right, but damn does it kinda feel mobily, with it using "gold" instead of letting you select a currency symbol, and the UI being kinda gamified, actually the fact their is a hud to begin with is gamish, i think 1 only had your money and a minimap in the upper right corner.
