Ngl it's pretty cool how the Arknights and Limbus Company fanbases became homies right off the bat. Found out about Arknights through Limbus Company actually; it's neat seeing Arknights people finding out the opposite way.

Limbus Company is a really fun game and has an INTENSE story. Just finished chapter 1 and it was incredible! The game is gacha but honestly doesn't feel like one. There are modes in the game that allow you to grind shards to trade for identities (alters of the ops) and EGOs (more less an ultimate that has different skills and passives) Also the game is VA with Korean so if you don't want you don't have to read on stream lol kinda like people do with Honkai

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

That's good to hear! It's a game that I'm actually considering to play sometime soon and oh thank the lord I dont have to read out loud LMAO

[@Sairento-kun]

So far you can grind them 3 x per weeks ( before 5x per week, tho sum up rewards are the same now, they made it faster) Shards u can farm everyday are to tier any rarity character u want/ ego to tier 3 so you don't need dupes. You will have fun with 3-22 boss xD

[@NereusBlue]

Since no one did it yet, imma do it. Do you know that all the characters are based on Literature pieces: - Yi Sang : Korean Poet. - Don Quixote : Donquixote by Miguel de Cervantes. - Faust : German Folklore. - Sinclair : Demian by Hermann Hesse. - Rodion : Crimes and Punishment by Fyodor Mikhailovich Dostoyevsky. - Heathcliff : Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë. - Ishmael : Moby Dick by Herman Melville. - Outis : The Odyssey. - Gregor : Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka. - Ryoshu : Hell Screen by Ryūnosuke Akutagawa. - Hong Lu : Dream of the Red chamber by Cao Xueqin. - Meursault : L'Étranger by Albert Camus . (Featuring Dante from the epic poem Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri.)

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Oh wow that is actually hella interesting wtf

[@anothenblue2630]

Yi Sang isn't from a work of literature, he's the writer (The Wings is another prominent work of his, based on his own life to an unknown extent). He was a...unique man. Somewhere between based and cringe. Solidus, if you will. His works are somewhat bizarre. Fun fact: he spent so much time at home that japanese law enforcement (SK was occupied by Japan at the time) thought he was doing something shady behind the scenes. He got arrested, but they found nothing and sent him to a hospital afterwards. Unfortunately, that's where he died later from tuberculosis.

[@wymarsane7305]

Faust isn't just from folklore, but Goethe's play in particular. "Es irrt der Mensch, so lang er strebt"

[@NereusBlue]

Faust is a German Folklore character based of a real person name Johann Georg Faust. Plays and comic puppet theatre loosely based on this legend were popular throughout Germany in the 16th century, often reducing Faust and Mephistopheles to figures of vulgar fun. The story was popularised in England by Christopher Marlowe, who gave it a classic treatment in his play The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus (c. 1592).[3] In Goethe's reworking of the story over two hundred years later, Faust becomes a dissatisfied intellectual who yearns for "more than earthly meat and drink" in his life.

[@SunshowerWonderlab]

Also Hong Lu's name is literally the name of the Book

[@elvinmacospag6989]

The best part about this gacha, imo, is the fact that no ID is unviable. Even the base IDs are useful, it's just a matter of knowing who to use and when. A full 3 star party in Ch. 3 will likely get you killed, if we're being honest.

[@greatninja2590]

3 star party needs to have tier 3 to be viable

[@aisir3725]

well, maybe not all but you can make a comp that will beat all of current content with base IDs, (the ids really arent balanced, there's kurolu and zwei sinclair)

[@elvinmacospag6989]

I know, the vast majority of them (8/13) are weak to Blunt.

[@raquelalejandrapatinoojeda8334]

YES, IT'S FINALLY OUT! Funny that you got weirded out by Hong Lu the most, when he's arguably the most 'innocent' one amongst the Sinners (The playable characters). His comment about Dante/the MC's head is because Dante is the character with a literal clock for a head.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

ohhhh thats makes a lot more sense now lmao. We are clockhead man

[@HateIsJustice]

This is technically the third game title from the studio Project Moon, following 'Lobotomy Corporation' being the first with 'Library of Ruina' being the second. Neither seem directly related to 'Limbus Company's main plot, but the game does seem to transpire following the events of both games and thus all share the same setting. On top of that, there are also other works related to the events of these games' and their setting (WonderLab, Distortion Detective & Leviathan), the three game titles are also all very different genre of games! Lobotomy Corporation is a 'roguelite', "SCP" management simulator of sorts. Library of Ruina is a Deck built card battler of sorts. Limbus Company is a 'Gacha' skill chain auto battler, of sorts of course. The studio's also made up of literary geeks, so expect many of those kinds of references and plenty of interesting story telling in their games! Touching on the 'gacha' child of the three games, you do not 'gacha' for more characters, but rather different say, 'playstyles' of said characters. Like the prior titles, the game is quite story driven with the cast of characters being unaltered. Basically meaning, there won't be any new characters so to speak here, but other things for said characters like what we just got for Faust for instance. There's a lot of overlap between Project Moon & Hypergryph's fanbases, so perhaps you'll enjoy much of what the studio produces!

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

yeah this seems unique compared to other games I have played and im excited to dive in and see everything Limbus company has to offer! And I only VERY recently heard of Lobotomy Corporation because people were raving about it lol

[@aaronli8843]

I'd describe it as alters; playstyles implies they have the same kit.

[@Number1Arbiter]

One thing I haven't seen anyone comment on yet is that the difficulty curve in this game is incredibly steep, as with all Project Moon games. That shit do go up

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

I'll keep that in mind

[@awanderingperson708]

difficulty curve? you mean difficulty WALL?

[@IllusoryHunt]

"That ain't no difficulty spike, that's a difficulty SPEAR."

[@raquelalejandrapatinoojeda8334]

I see people already explaining it in the comments, but just to clarify: In this gacha you don't roll for new characters. You are given all the characters from these trailers for free, and what is in the gacha for you to roll for is Identities (basically Alters) of those same characters, which are a "what if" from another timeline in which that character was born in another district, joined another faction or in general had their life changed in some other way. To explain in Arknights terms, the gacha characters here are to the ftp versions what Skalter is to Skadi. It would be also like if Arknights gave you a Thorns for free, and what you actually could roll for in the gacha are things like Abyssal Hunter Thorns, Thorns if he had joined Reunion instead, Rhine Labs Thorns, and so on and so forth.

[@sebastiansteppuhn3418]

With the attacks shown off at the end of each character promo you need to know that those are so called EGO weapons. In context to the story, EGO is basically a manifestation of the heart and mind, something like a Jojo stand or Persona so each one is different. In this game they serve as sort of a super attack. You can pull several more but the ones shown in the trailers are inherent to the character. Also, as you said that this game seems a lot darker, please rewatch the first trailer and look at the fucking content warning. Edit: Another thing worth mentioning, what also sets it apart is that you actually start off with all of the available characters and the Gacha pulls are all variants based on alternative timelines.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Ah yes so we playin persona I gotchu lol, and that is pretty interesting that the gacha pulls are variants of the character's. I'm curious to see how my luck is in the game compared to other gachas I play

[@greenherb3229]

​@@TheSpecialKExperienceIt's also interesting to see that the gacha is actually explained in lore as a corporation's technology repurposed... and the person who made that technology is actually Yi Sang as revealed in Leviathan which is a comic that bridges Library of Ruina and Limbus Company.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Ah ofc it was wonderful... lmao

[@Sairento-kun]

I'm a day 1 player and they already listened to player a lot, so I see a bright future. For example we complained there is no way to farm pulling resources, so they added it after clear of Mirror dungeons ( 3x, weekly reward), dailies took too long so they make them faster to do ( more exp to daily pass and less missions), mirror dungeons you needed to do were 5 for max rewards, now it's only 3 and sum up rewards are the same. It has soft pity 50 pulls but it's always 50/50, there is no hard pity in pulls but after pulls and crates with shards after mirror dungeons ( and as rewards from battle pass/ other missions) you should be able to craft identity/ego you want eventually. Game has seasons and u can craft any identity/ego that is in exact season. If none interested you 50% shards come to next season. The best part is that you don't need dupes, you can just farm threads to uptie tiers for everyone. Design of characters are sick, but PM is known of this part, ost is great as well I can recommend ost from 3-22 boss phase 1 and 2 ( some ppl has PTS from this boss fight xD) So far I can say, game is rly f2p friendly, I beat 3-22 with just 1*0 identities ( tho I had 1 cool EGO for Meurasault) And ye Ryoshu and Faust best characters, it's nice you like Ryoshu a lot as well, you should see her 3*000 identity, it's badass as hell :D AND REMEMBER, FAUST IS BEST GRIPS WAIFU, THE ONE WHO GRIPS (latest released Identity, worth to check :3)xD

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

[@theshadowrunner100]

I recommend you look up a video or two that shows all the games EGO attacks, basically ultimate moves with small cutscenes. That's what the combat in this trailer was, their default/beginner EGO.

[@wymarsane7305]

1 Yi Sang: One of the smartest mfers in the City. Rarely talks and when he does it's to make a pun with his own name that doesn't translate into English. 2 Faust: One of the smartest mfers in the City and makes damn sure you know it. Responsible for assembling the Damned Dozen yet refuses to elaborate why. Also refers to herself in the third person. 3 Don Quixote: The problem child. The plot would have roughly 80% less conflict if they left her dead for most of it. 4 Ryoshu: Rarely talks and when she does it's to make dumb wordplays. Extremely volatile and prone to kill you at the drop of a hat. 5 Meursault: Rarely talks. Probably hates the sun. -Nanomachines, son- 6 Hong Lu: Affable dude with affluence-induced empathy deficit. As in, he literally cannot conceive the plights of anybody less wealthy than him. 7 Heathcliff: WYSIWYG. Hates the rich and tries to solve all his problems with violence. -Has a drug problem- 8 Ishmael: Compulsively normal. Gets extremely annoyed at the others' antics. -Is prone to teamkilling- 9 Rodion: The most empathetic yet materialistic of the group. The team mum if your mum had a gambling addiction. 11 Sinclair: Precious smol boi, must be protecc'd 12 Outis: Implied to be ex-military. The biggest kiss-ass this side of the Thumb with not a single drop of sincerity. Has raised all of the betrayal flags. 13 Gregor: Traumatised war vet. Despite his bug arm still the most genuinely nice and relatable dude.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

LOL LISTEN

[@terra6713]

As an arknights player since launch that tried (and really got into) Limbus Company, I have something to say about Limbus in case you want to play it. Most of chapter 1 gameplay-wise is bad, barely teaches you how to play and you could just "swipe left to right" until the last level of chapter 1 (will make sense once you see the gameplay) though the story and character interactions are very nice. The game picks up later on, becoming incredibly fun and much more difficult (though never unfair, you could win the game with the Base characters and 0 gacha perfectly). Also, and this is not talked about too much but is important to know, it suffers from memory leaks, so after about two hours you should restart the game and it will be just fine once again. Shouldn't take more than a minute anyways so it isn't really a problem That's about it, if anything I'd add that if you want to play, you should start soon to gacha in the current banner, neet Faust is funny.

[@somefoolishfool]

As a long time PM fan I agree, it doesn’t give a great first impression (combat wise and I guess a little story wise as it can be boring to some). After and during 1-11 though most of those problems are fixed and is where the actual game starts in my opinion

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

I will try to keep that all in mind thanks for the heads up!

[@IllusoryHunt]

faust may know everything but she never learned to share her knowledge 🗿 now i'm out here using base ids, shishmael, and kuro gregor (and nclair)

[@afterschoolproductions5132]

I had no idea what this was until I saw the map its a continuation of another game they made called lobotomy corporation Edit: not a continuation but set in the same universe

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

ohhh I see I'm not familiar with lobotomy corporation

[@gamerlif]

​@@TheSpecialKExperience well Lobotomy corporation(LC for short) is their 1st game and there Library of ruina (LoR for short also similar gameplay) is their 2nd game Limbus is thier 3rd game. Good story in general(dont expect rainbow and sunshine in their game BTW) but their tutorial is kinda their weakpoint.

[@greenherb3229]

​@@TheSpecialKExperienceFun fact to add to @gamerlif's comment, LoR's tutorial had to be nerfed a lot because people kept dying to it, I mean it's a 3v1 what'd you expect... but even the director of Project Moon got bodied by them, so there's now an ongoing joke where people kept saying The Rats were the powerhouses.

I would recommend any of the Project Moon game anytime to people and im sure the community Will welcome you also we dont talk about love town. What you seen for the caracther trailer the E.G.O. attack are mostly a big attack on a enemy or group of people and that is not their weapon they mainly use and yes that is a part of the gameplay but if you want to be sure go see the other gameplay trailer it will explain/show they do also explain their battle pass where it a preaty good one and easy to complete. As for simping a good part of the community are for Faust and recently they release her 3* for me it Ryoshu becaused of a certain cut-scene in chapter 2.

What you saw were kinda lvl 1 ults, to keep it simple. 5 levels in total and you will be able to have 5 of them equipped at the same time (4,5 are not present in game yet). Most characters don't use these weapons you saw. Learning combat is not going to be easy. So try it out and enjoy the story, it's an experience.

[@TheSpecialKExperience]

Oh damn thx for the heads up and I'll try it out soon!
