Do I need to slog thru the first one to get the full experience? Sort of quit and never went back for really no specific reason.

Not OP, and am only ~15 hrs into Survivor, but I feel like you should.

The start of Jedi Survivor after the prologue is that the group of 4 from Fallen Orderwent their separate ways at the end of the game, and youre starting by tracking down one or more of them. So, it's gonna feel pretty bland if you don't know who these people are and why you might want to seek them out.

Just put it on easy and don't go on any tangents.

However, even without the story I personally really like the first one because it was my first introduction to a dark souls like combat experience. I enjoyed learning how enemies telegraph their moves and timing my parry and dodge.

That's my take anyways.

I agree with bitwaba. You'll get the most out of the experience if you finish the first one. Easiest difficulty and only focusing on the story should get you through it in a couple of hours.

Edit: But also, if you really don't want to there is a recap in the beginning of Survivor that I believe will catch you up ok. (not 100% if that's enough to bring you up to speed, it's been a couple of weeks since I saw it)
