Yes, not having PROVING GROUNDS OF THE MAD OVERLORD (Wizardry I) will hamper
your enjoyment of KNIGHT OF DIAMONDS (Wizardry II) because you won't be
able to play it.

Wiz2 is a strict sequel of Wiz1.  You need to create and build characters on
Wiz1 first.

I do, however, highly reccommend it.  As primitive as the interface looks, it
still holds up very well after all these years.
