Do I need to have played lobotomy corp to enjoy this?

Hi! I was just wondering if I needed to have knowledge of lobotomy corporation to enjoy the story here? If so, are there any videos you'd recommend me watch? I've tried LC and the gameplay just isn't really for me. Thank you!

Not realy. But you will probably enjoy this more if you play their previous games. And they're good, so try them out, or watch on youtube. New content here will come over only in June anyway.

Watch an all cutscenes video, lob corp is really not needed still, the cast from the last 2 games are not in this game so you can also just go blind.

Nope. Limbus is meant to be a stand-alone spinoff. It's aimed at people who haven't played either of the previous games.

As this game isn't a direct sequel to either of those games playing them will mainly give you a better idea of what the City is like as whole, it won't really impact your understanding of Limbus's main story.

Play Lobotomy (or watch a summary on Youtube) if you'd like to learn about the fall of company that the Limbus sinners are exploring.
Play Library of Ruina if you'd like to learn about the City and its inhabitants, its also just a really great game and has similar combat to Limbus.
I'd say you can play Ruina and Limbus simultaneously since Limbus is still in its early lifespan and therefore doesn't have a ton of repeatable content.

The characters in all 3 games are extremely lovable and the story is wonderful. Many people play Limbus and then play the other 2 games once they catch up with the current content since they become curious about the City etc. But yeah, Lobotomy is designed to make you suffer so maybe watch a summary or a video wit hall the cutscenes.

Nope. I have really enjoyed Limbus Company and it was my first Project Moon game. I have gone and bought their previous games and started playing Lobotomy Corp, and I get the same sort of enjoyment out of discovering references and links from Lobotomy Corp in Limbus company that I am sure longtime fans of their got playing Limbus Company, just discovering them in reverse.
