Base Game vs Enhanced Edition - Graphics Comparison
I'm a bit short on budget so going to buy the base game only for now. The review videos are quite confusing, they are implementing that there is a difference between the graphics of the base game and the Enhanced Edition package. Well is there ??

No, no difference at all when it comes to Legend skill-tree, graphics and Campaign content. The Enhanced Edition was name of free patch that added these, which is now free to everyone regardless if they buy Enhanced Edition or not.

The only difference is paid DLC which base game doesn't contain. The Enhanced Edition will contain paid DLC such as The Following, Bozak Horde and etc, generally it'll contain all the season pass's content as well, therefore Enhanced Edition is best version to buy for full experience.

But it's possible to purchase base game now, play the game normally and purchase season pass later whenever you can, having base version won't prevent you from playing with others if they own Enhanced Edition, unless they're in Bozak Horde or another map called Countryside which is for The Following DLC.

Yes, that is also an option. However, you don't need to be hurry with season pass, you can grab it later whenever you want, preferably after you finish Campaign and decide whether you enjoy the game enough to continue playing in The Following or not, this'd be the best time I suppose.

The paid DLC doesn't add much into Campaign, it's mostly oriented on The Following, which is similar to second game with new play through, but added into Dying light inside and both merged together, but The Following is not accessed through Campaign, it is done from Main Menu, therefore and since The Following is continuation of Campaign, the order would be finishing Campaign first before starting The Following, you don't need to buy it right now. I've personally over 1,000 + hours into Campaign, it's quite big depending on how one plays through it and whether they rush or not, you may clock at least 150 hours in maximum, unless you decide to play invasions which can add a lot of play time to your Campaign.

So buying season pass now would be optional. I hope you understand well from my text since English isn't my main langauge and I'm not very good at it.

Besides that, it's worth noting that buying any DLC won't force you to start over or something like that, also you use your own charater from Campaign in The Following as well and you'll be freely able to jump into both play throughs simultaneously at your will. You won't be locked out in any way.

I got the base game. Will buy the DLCs in the next sale. So far I'm enjoying it. I couldn't find any co-op servers though (maybe its a problem on my side, crap ISP). No push to talk is the only flaw I've found so far, I mean its a basic feature that this game lacks ! well Discord FTW ! :) appreciate the help ! thank you ! :)

Not sure where you heard this, but it's not true. Enhanced Edition simply contains paid DLC while original doesn't, there's no such thing as graphics difference or features. Base game simply won't be able to play in The Following or Bozak Horde, the game itself will be same.
