Well, HM2 has more levels, more mechanics, a longer story, better music, better graphics, a level editor, and the story of the first game is completely inconsequential to the story of HM2, but you do whatever bruh.

HLM2 has more story, stuff. . .
but for you to get an taste of what it is like, and how is the story, then buy the 1rst one. If you want to just be thrown into action then buy the 2nd one.

I liked the music of HM1 better than HM2 *me shrugs"

HM1 is a better game, but HM2 gets you a lot more for your money, since even after you finish the really long story you can download theoretically infinite levels from the steam workshop

Also making your own levels, yeah. Great soundtrack in the game too, and stuff. Not to mention, much better mechanics in the second game as opposed to the first, like bullets not OHKO-ing regular enemies in HM1, a right pain when trying to spray a room with bullets but not quite killing everyone because they didn't die immediately on contact. Also, the plot of HM1 isn't exactly mandatory to play HM2, since it's really confusing as is and you'd have to draw up your own timeline anyway.

Why is HM1 the better game?

2 has better soundtrack, more levels, it is harder, it has much better story and you can play with more characters. The main menu theme in HM2 is one of the best things i ever heard in a video game, combined with that perfect background. I prefer 2 but HM1 is a classic and perfect in every way. I think everyone should play both games, totally worth it.

Because it is better in almost every way - levels are better designed, story is way more cool and music is better, if you are not deaf like those guys here.
In HM2 enemys will shoot off screen (thats cheap and frustrating) and levels are just random mess mostly (for example one level is dark, and in game where you will die from one shoot it not fun at all), to understand messy story you need read 3 screens of wikipedia, because dev think he is clever like Tarantino, so he split story in to parts and you will play with diffrent heroes and in diffrent timelines whole game. Basically you will not understand nothing at all without some help.
HM2 have more levels, but less weapons, almost no masks (in HM1 you can choose your game style with masks). Thats it, HM1 is better game, less frustrating, better designed. IMO dev didnt understand at all why first game was soo good, so he focused on bad things in secound one.

In other words, you hate hm2 cuz its harder. Good work mate and no im not deaf and hm2 acctually has more than 3 songs. 2 is a big improvment after 1. And the story maked more sense in 2, not in 1.
