Early reviews are good.

First one sucked for me, I tried to play it at least 5 times so I wouldn't buy, but the business model sounds, well unsound.

micro transactions. little things you have to buy to improve your experience or make the game better.

Usually only exist on free to play games. On a full price game they should never exist.

Also, the exec producer died, so they created DLC ( downloadable content) " in his memory" before the game ever launched and are charging people for it instead of just including it in the game.

Didn't they already say that it was a mistake and will be made free?

It looks awesome and I really likes the first one despite only playing it for maybe a month. Not seeing the time to play between Destiny and Mario Odyssey coming out

It is free. The DLC was a way to gather donations for the guy who died. I guess because of the uproar or potential for uproar, Warner Bros decided to make it free and donated money to the family on their own.

Do I need to have played the first one to play this one or understand what is going on?

Not really. You'll get a brief backstory before you start. You're a ranger in Mordor who has been possessed by the spirit of the elven smith who made the ring of power. He gives you the ability to convert orcs to your side.
