you're a level 8ish character and would be thrown in at the deep end with this. With BG1 the spells are introduced as you level from L1, so you get a better understanding of them, which will make the game easier for you/more fun because you can more effectively use the spell system.

Should I get baldurs gate 1 or 2?

If players are forced to choose between the first two titles, Baldur's Gate 2 should be the go-to choice for its more user-friendly experience.

Do I need to play Baldurs gate in order?

No. Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 are great games, but playing them will not help with Baldur's Gate 3, either with the plot or the UI/game interface/abilities. BG1 and 2 form a completed series, taking your character from a 1st level orphan in Candlekeep to a very powerful ending which I will not spoil.

What is the best order for Baldurs gate?

The Baldur's Gate is well balanced between both. I would recommend you to start with Baldur's Gate Saga, then pick Planescape: Torment and Icewind Dale Saga as the last.
