NOT A SPOILER Hi Insym. Something i havent seen mentioned in the other comments. Memory repository is better than resetting the day. You keep ego gifts. You keep the unlocked info. The cost is that youll rewind further back. Any missions you complete will stay completed. If your worried about doing the dusk ordeal or supressing certain abnormalities you can try on the day after a memory repository. If you complete the missiok you can do the mempry repository and revive all the employees that may have died whilst completing the mission. With how you have approached the game i think this will really help. I would recommend not doing a day 1 reset. Unless you feel it is impossible to complete even with rewinding to the memory repository. Ive seen you already reply to other comments highlighting thr importance of quest so i wont harp on too much. But each department will let you know what you need to do to unlock the next quest (currently the whole upper floor is awaiting you completing the dusk ordeal) I hope your having fun with the game. I find it immensely enjoyable watching you play and seeing you solve the puzzle that is this game. Thank you for sticking with it. One last thing. Watching you has made me go back to this game to complete it. Ive gone for a day 1 reset after almost completing the game. Getting back to where i was is taking a small fraction of the time thanks to everything i have unlocked. And thanks to knowing what to do with the abnormalities in total. A day 1 reset isnt the worst thing in the world and i would recommend giving the game one more try if you find yourself having to do the reset. Expecially as each of the missions you complete give you a perminent bonus that carries over (such as the buffed clerks, or being able to heal in the corridor.) Thank you once again Insym. To everyone else in the comments. Please thumb this up so its seen. It should encourage insym to try the difficult challenges which will make a fun watch. Thanks all hopfully it wont be as long until the next one. But im just glad we have conformation hes gonna see it through to the end.

[@ONKVP]

I am a newbie but in my experience day 1 reset wasn't that bad. (I reset from day ~20.) (Insym won't ever go for either imo.) Because now that you understand how leveling works, how EGO stuff works, it can completely change your strategy from day 1. You understand which abnormalities to take, how many strong employees you need, you understand how many employees you need in general, where to put them. After day 20 you can't just grind infinitely past Noon anymore, so you need to be ready. So it was an overall positive experience to me. (At least until I encountered Do Not Touch Me and rage quit and deleted the game. Until the next Insym's video pulled me back in😂)

[@Xiao_LiuSection1Director]

Some clarification: E.G.O Gifts don’t save at all its only the EGO Suit and Weapons that save and the other things mentioned in the comment

[@SophisticatedHermit]

Just one thing about Plague Doctor : he does *not* care about you retrying the day. The employee who got blessed will lose it's ego gift named "Blessed" but, to the game, he's still blessed and will be on the plague doctor's clock. That's why you weren't able to send McKenna to work with him as she's already blessed.

[@CRSB00]

He's really shooting himself at the feet because save scummimg with the Plague Doctor only will make you loose track of who and how many are blessed, better for us because I really want to see his reaction when that clock ticks 12

[@kazoo_2005]

​@@CRSB00 yes and that's without mentioning the fact that the ego gift is very good so losing it for nothing is quite not the play

Does the game save the blessed status as soon as the work finishes or only after the agent shows up on the clock though?

[@kazoo_2005]

@@TrueNargin I think it's after the agent shows up on the clock so retrying there wasn't a bad idea, I was mostly speaking about McKenna.

[@gamesSpawm15]

Hey Insym, - As you may have already noticed, as the facility grows bigger, it takes alot of time for your employees to get around, the ideal setup is to have at minimum, 3 employees per department, just like that netzach mission. Because if there's a Qlipoth Meltdown on the entire department (3 Abnormalities and a Tool Abnormality), you can deal with it quickly. The same goes for suppressing Ordeals quickly, especially the Crimson Dawn with those little clown things, you wouldn't want it to mess with an ALEPH for sure. Additional employees on the department are usually extra firepower, and you'll probably need those too. - McKenna was not able to do work with Plague Doctor because she was already blessed previously and then you reset the day, her EGO gift was reset, but the Plague Doctor's Clock is another thing entirely. - The color on the Ordeal Symbol indicates what theme it is: Orange is food theme, Crimson is Circus theme, Green is Robot theme, etc. That way you can prepare accordingly to these Ordeals. I look forward to your reaction to purple noon... - If you want to complete the Dusk Ordeals, you will need to use and abuse the shield bullets, as the ordeals deal alot of damage, and if you want to kill them quickly before the facility goes to shit, you may also have to use employees that are weak to those damages. Also, one bullet can shield multiple employees if they are stacked inside eachother. - That ALEPH Orchestra has one of the best EGO weapons in the game DPS-wise, it absolutely MELTS anything that comes into contact with it. Althought the Silent Orchestra itself is very bad energy-wise, since you'll want to keep it at average mood as to not make it escape and bring your energy back to 0. Because of that, it basically has WAW energy production, with the danger of losing all your progress if you don't suppress it fast enough. It's a good call to just get his EGO armor and Weapons and then ditch for an ALEPH that pays out much more. - The Firebird yearns to be hunted, it gives a nice gift if you manage to suppress it. Although i don't think you currently can suppress it, as it would go back to containment before you could deal enough damage to kill it. You will need to stack RED and WHITE shields on the employees fighting and then juggle those employees so they don't get destroyed by it's attacks. - If you feel like you're about to reset to day 1, give Plague Doctor some kisses, he will save us all. - Welfare Department's missions will give you a field day...

[@thokko1270]

I wouldn't do that with the plague doctor The employees he blesses are PERMANENTLY saved in the files and the first run you fight him is the only time you'll be able to fight him knowing exactly who gets affected HOWEVER, a solution to this is writing down these names and hiring fodder employees that share the exact same name as the ones previously blessed, resulting in them getting transformed provided no employees with the same name are deployed

Don’t be afraid to reset to day 1 if things get too frustrating or tedious since you keep mission progress and gear. You somehow managed to end up with some of the most annoying abnos(singing machine, parasite tree, warm hearted woodsmen etc)The next run will always be easier. Completing the missions is difficult but well worth it. One last thing to note is that while tools may seem terrible at first, with the right combinations can lead to game breakingly strong combinations. Watching your series got me back into playing this game again!

Insym, Words of advice... (No spoilers btw) -Your biggest enemy in L. Corp is yourself, (Abnormalities come second) Your attentiveness, situation control, and memory retention will be tested to its utmost limits.There will be certain situations where you have to be "beware of something" whether it be reversible or not just to keep the facility stable... -The game is a long ardous journey, and is usually not finished in the first run. Retries/Memory repository/ Day 1 Reset is an ingame mechanic. No shame in resetting besides you will be able to climb back up faster with the retained knowledge/research. (Also the upgrades/research from the quests you recieved is permanent) -Learn to let go, strong agents/employees dying or anything going wrong will mainly be your responsibility, You are our Manager afterall 😉. Its a painstaking process but if you think their deaths were not in vain, let go. Face the fear, Build the future. -How you approach the game is certainly up to you, we're honestly having fun just watching you mess up and learn from those mistakes. The fun comes from the trials and errors plus making new discoveries. -Bullets, you mentioned this in the later part of the video but hey just a small reminder 😅 the bullets are most of the times beneficial with situation control and agent/clerk survivability, they refill every time the Q-meltdown increases each level, so fire away! Thats it for now... Anyone else please add on or correct me if im wrong here... Thanks for reading this Insym and the others!

[@Dark_Slayer3000]

Excellent comment, fully agree after having played it myself, even though I needed some mods to carry me through the painful parts in lategame :)

[@danielcusco6405]

Another thing that might help you is having more employees. At least 2 or 3 upgraded employees per department help a LOT during the ordeals (and sometimes you need specific employees for specific SCP's)

[@Dr.BloodBomb]

WE ARE SO BACK!!! ALSO HERES A TIP FOR THAT SPECIFIC ALEPH: Its one of the more easier Alephs to supress, although it can be extremely devastating if you dont get it under control. When it breaches it plays music associated with each type of weapon damage, and itll only be affected by that specific type if weapon. You can prepare for this ahead of time by organizing your agents to attack in groups. In other words: its takes a composed symphony to take down an orchestra :)

3:08:23 Keep in mind if you don't supress Silent Orchestra and just let him finish his movements, he *will* take a lot of energy from you and extend the duration of the day considerably as a result. When you farm him (you should, his E.G.O is *really* good, even better if its combined with his gift) do it at the start of the day and be ready to wait and wait until you have enough boxes to stop focusing on him and start gathering energy to complete the day.

[@kazoo_2005]

not only "a lot of energy", it takes every single bit of it

[@bruhhero]

Actually Orchestra should do white damage to everyone but it's bugged so yep, just no energy. But i don't remember if it's happens after the aleph escaping or just not suppressing it

[@CRSB00]

Don not inderstimate Alephs they are for all intents and purposes Eldrich Abobinations, they're not really contained, they only stay in their cells because they want to, if they want out there's not much you can do to stop them at this stage, and that also applies to some of the Waw (looking a t the bird)

[@Memuer]

If you DO manage to suppress the firebird somehow, you actually do get a special weapon from it. You can get this weapon once per day by suppressing it until you have 3 copies. It's kinda tough but if you are prepared and have your shield bullets ready it can work out.

[@DestinyShiva]

HERO! Seeing this come back made my day. Thanks to your playthrough I've come back to playing as well and I've nearly beaten the game! Two pieces of advice: Firstly, prioritise completing missions over completing the day. That dusk ordeal is far safer for you to start as early as possible (Day 21 each run. If you can't do it this run, resetting and grinding through to Day 21 and talking us through the new Abnos you encounter would most likely be fine for the fans - we know the Abnos, most of us will love to see you react to the crazy things that can occur!) Secondly, managing the Abnos is half of the job. The real challenge in this game is dealing effectively with the 'combat' - aka Ordeals / Suppressing Abnos etc. Learning how to do this is the key to progressing in this game, but given how skilled you've been in other games you definitely learn to do it. It's all about having the right strategy. Believe me, there are some INSANE things in this game. Encountering The Silent Orchestra is just a taster of the stuff that can happen. A tip of the iceberg. If you ever need tips on the 'combat' in this game, let us know and the comments will hook you up!

[@TrueNargin]

It's really nice to know you plan on keeping this series alive till the end! I can wait between episodes, that's not a problem but I couldn't help but wonder if you dropped it each time. I am not sure but I have a theory on what happened with McKenna and Plague Doctor. When you reset the day after somebody's been blessed, that person loses the gift but their name is still on the clock and they can't work with Plague Doctor. I think McKenna may have been blessed before but you reset so it doesn't show up. I know people told you how that one mission with Q timers actually worked but the main takeaway for me from this entire situation was that you don't really know the difference between Q counters and Q meltdowns. They are completely separate and shouldn't be confused. Q meltdown is the red bar period. Whatever references Q meltdown only applies to the stuff that happens with the red bar. Q counter is the counter you know about that triggers each abnormality's ability. Now obviously if a meltdown happens and the timer runs out, it will reduce the Q counter but that's the only connection between the two systems.

32:20 You lost energy here because the Q meltdown on Singing Machine completed without someone resolving it. Once that timer hits 0, the Q counter of the abno hits 0 instantly, AND you lose a bit of energy.

[@fairyfromabove4336]

WE NEED IT MORE!!! Also, dusk event hardly likely to happen by its own, because you get more and energy per 1 Q-point in Q-level, end Q-level requires more and more Q-points to cause a meltdown. At start you had only 4 interactions before it reaches second lvl, now it is 12

[@mondsternleinch.5253]

The canvas seems to be good if you have an SCP that requires you to have a very low HP stat to do good (like the Golem), but then that employee would be at risk dying while working because of their low health. With the canvas others with high HP can take the damage for them. Other than that, it seems pretty niche and the cost outweighs the use. At least it doesnt do any harm if you just leave it alone. ....wait a second. What happens if you make a person immortal and then put them into the Iron Maiden?

[@sanandreas1131]

If you also have another item (shelter of March) you can literally skip days but at the cost of two employees Edit:you can also exploit a bug that makes you literally immortal (this game is really held by some strings,glue and a dream)

[@vg2449]

it's good pair with researcher note tool that you can't take any damage

[@ferociousfeind8538]

This is a well-known disastrous case! The iron maiden constantly does increasing amounts of damage to the employee inside it. The portrait moves damage done to the painted employee to another than has been selected. So, the iron maiden does damage to a random employee walking around, until they die, and then a new employee is selected to take damage for the employee stuck inside the tool. Very quickly, everyone is dead, and, special rule, when the only employee left is the one who had their portrait painted, they die. So, doing this does not give you infinite energy, it mostly just kills everyone.

[@kichiroumitsurugi4363]

​@ferociousfeind8538 Well, close. If you send the painted agent into the Shelter, they cannot die even if their HP reaches 0. So, the iron maiden will keep going until it instakills the agent in it, after which Portrait deactivates and the one in the iron maiden dies as normal The benefit is that the agent in the iron maiden will last a lot longer, giving you more energy and filling the entire quota or close to it at the cost of one agent

Check the details of E.G.O.! 59:00 It says timer, not counter xddd You should already try to complete the Dusk ordeal or you might run out of time 2:01:40 Use the shields!! They replenish with meldowns! I really like the Parasite Tree a lot, but it's a bit annoying sometimes, I love that it gives you elf ears. You can do 4 random abnos then tree, 4 random abnos then tree... on repeat instead of risking it by sending lots of them and then tree The Silent Orchestra's E.G.O. gift is crazy good and totally worth the pein to farm it! Someone should tell you about the elevator shields strategy, or firgure it out yourself, I'm not going to tell you xd 2:46:46 Look at your energy :] You can cash out the abno boxes to get E.G.O. gear before starting the day so it doesn't reset Incompetent manager forgot to use their gun and let Frank die!!

madlad actually released another playthrough, that's physically impossible. about the story, yea this is the part where you got to know what is going on since this is a really lore heavy game. to fill you in on some things you may not remembered, angela puts you on a so called "cognition Filter" where things that are supposed to be realistic, are instead made to look like cartoons, this is to avoid the manager's sanity going down whenever they interact or look at abnormalities (because imagine what they would look like if they had a realistic artstyle, hideous). so yea, you may realize it now that the cartoonish vibe this game gives is INTENTIONAL, lorewise anyway, but thats only when the cognition filter is active, if its turned off, the manager will see what they normally would look like. and that goes the same for the sephirahs in the recent story in this video, the cognition filter replaces the robots you see into a humanoid version of themselves thanks to the cognition filter. EXCEPT for ANGELA, since she is genuinely the only humanoid AI even with or without the filter, the game as stated as such. i dont think this should be marked as spoilers since you have already gone through this particular story before, just want to refresh your mind since 1 its been a long time, and 2, the story in the early game is nothing to pay attention to at first, so i can understand if you just think "its just a cute simple visual-novel esque dating sim" and just casually forget about it all when you started playing lol. but yea youre getting to the point where the game's story is setting you up for something, and it wont be immersive if you dont know some things. if i have one comment about the narrative, it is just to be ready for a lot of plot twist and turns, everything is canon in the game :)

Insym, the Shelter Abnormality makes your characters immortal at the cost of breaking out other Abnormalities. That's a good trade off, cause I don't think even 1shot Abnormalities can do damage. You'll be able to suppress even the most dangerous Abnormalities with ease. You could even get a weak employee, put them in it for a bit to engage the immortality, then send them into the machine that grinds them for energy, and see if it can kill them.

The Lob Corp/Project Moon worldbuilding is amazing and a rabbit hole, just like Warhammer 40k lore.

[@tudsters]

hey!! new lob corp video, here are some ESSENTIAL tips to make your life easier (explained in short) and some questions you asked, answered. -COMPLETE the dusk ordeal mission asap, you'll see why i said this when you do so. (Or not, you can always do it on a repeat playthrough, dont feel pressured to do so and take it at your own pace!!) -if a abno has a qlipoth meltdown and you let the timer run out you lose a portion of your energy (more energy is lost depending on how many abnos timers run out) -if you let the silent orchestra do his performence till the end you lose all your energy, try getting his gift and ego though. (Especially the gift) -this game will most likely require a repeat playthrough, if you are going to do one, all previous missions will be saved, as well as EGO weapons and suits and abno information (for example: in the abno selection menu you will be able to see their names instead of the usual code names), also on repeat playthroughs you could cut down some unnecesary footage as it might get a lil too repetitive at one point or another. -every time you defeat firebird, you will obtain *SOMETHING*, up to 3 times. -for geburas mission, all abnormalities have to be beaten individually, you can't kill the same one 5 times -geburas missions are the hardest in the game, good luck. completing the dusk mission will start a chain reaction of *THINGS* to happen that may make geburas missions easier. -employees levels going down is a visual bug, it doesn't actually decrease their level -level EX on employees is a hidden level that can only be obtained by training level V (5) employees enough, a employee can't get better then level EX i know you can do it!! thanks for making videos on this game, looks like you're in for the long haul and i really respect that!

[@Chronidian]

A couple of things I want to mention: Qliphoth Meltdowns take a portion of your energy quota if you let them run out their timers. Every fourth Abnormality is a Tool Abnormality. These are the ones that operate based on cumulative time or number of times used.

[@RaiNAgara]

you get many of the tedious abnormalities there. there will be chaos in the latter day, so you need to do that dusk mission ASAP before it get worse. it will help you immensely A bit of tips : you don't need to do about the best result especially if you need to train. like you can train someone fortitude and temperance with big bad wolf or help you to not growing over the requirement like doing repression and/or insight on singing machine and please get all abnormalities descriptions to reach the true end can't wait for the next Lob Corp video!

Just a heads up, you can’t avoid the machine SCPs, the last choice of each department will always be between 3 of them

[@MissSmoozie]

It's not that it's the last one, it's every 4th, which lets you put multiple in the same department in some cases when you have multiple departments.

[@bonearm2700]

favorite playthrough on your channel, lobotomy corporation is genuinely one of my favorite games ever

[@Kairax]

Oh btw, if you have beef with understanding game "success chances" I'd recommend adding mod. It would show you success chance in percentage. Also about dusk... Ye, you are pretty much required to do it on the first day possible and have chill/manageble abnos selected. With your setup - it's pretty much restart to day1.

[@tung.nm317]

More gameplay tips which may help you out (do correct me if I get something wrong): _ To work with an abnormality, you can choose its containment room, pick work type, and then choose an agent to work with it. IMO this is easier to do than finding a specific agent to work with a specific abnormality. _ You can left-click the escaped abno (or its containment unit) or a panicked agent or an ordeal. There will be a window to the right shortlisting its information, and a menu of agents in which you can click to suppress the abno/employee/ordeal. This'll be very helpful if you need agents of specific things to suppress something. Also, clicking an agent who is suppressing something on the said menu will disengage him from fighting and return to his department's healing room. _ Do pay attention to an agent's emotion when he/she meets an abno (escaped or not). That's when he/she takes white damage from encountering an abno or seeing someone else die. The lower the armor's grade compared to the abnormality's, the more white damage he/she takes. _ If you see one, look at an ordeal's color on the Qliphoth Level bar. You'll know what to expect. It's funny seeing Insym starts getting punished for having too few agents, and he knows it. And I suppose the Silent Orchestra's performance is bugged because them screeching sound doesn't make a beautiful performance at all. That one mission literally floodgates Insym from progressing in this multiple-ending story. The further Insym delays that mission, the longer this series may be ;). And a reminder, those who succeed in the "hunt" are granted one of its very feathers that countless hunters once yearned for. EDIT: With the addition of Portrait of Another World, you now have all the tools needed to do the funniest energy-collecting strat possible.

[@_BlazingSteel_]

Hey, Insym! You can get Firebird's E.G.O. Weapon if you manage to supress it! It's actually a pretty neat long-ranged weapon and you can get multiple copies of them! Thank you for continuing playing this amusing and yet hard game!

You should try to Portrait someone and then send them into the machine that closes and slowly kills them. I don't actually know what it will do never had both of them at the same time before but seems like a very fun experiment to try for next episode!

[@paperaleks4896]

Putting a portraited agent into WCCA will kill every employee in the facility btw so probably don’t do that

[@fairfolk123]

Hey Insym, some quick tips/gameplay stuff: Complete missions as soon as possible. You have very few employees. Recommend getting one a day and sending them through "training course" abnormalities. For instance, level all stats to lvl 2 and then, on abno cooldown, have them work temperance on woodsman for a day, then instinct on Ppodae for a day, then repression on All Around Helper for a day, etc. In regards to the "training course" abnos, just have a suit for the new agent you're training that you dedicate to damage resistance to the abno they're working on, then swap it to a good suit when they're done. Agents only level after the day is over, so Woodsman is actually much more safe than you're playing with. Agents get experience based on how low their health is at end of work and level of the abno. This means they get better Exp from harder abnos due to the higher damage and level, so consider taking "safe risks" to quickly level Agents. (More shilling for woodsman) Each abnormality has an "Ego Gift" they can give, as you've seen. Some abnos with shitty energy or that are hard to work with have good gifts. Anything that gives +6 or higher on stats is really good. You can manually level up to 100 on all stats (V). Working can get agents up to 126 (EX). Ego Gift bonuses let them get past 126. Getting "levelled down" at the end of day is because it doesn't take into account ego gift bonuses. Energy drains when you don't complete a meltdown. That's the penalty other than the Q counter lowering. Not beating the shit out of Silent Orchestra sets it to zero. The Abno designators are: O - Original, made up by Project Moon, T - Trauma, has to do with trauma, F - Fairy Tale, originates from a fairy tale, D - Donator, made by one of their essentially patreon followers, T - Tool, all the tool abnormalities. If you have a question about something, it's probably in the manager's manual. Very few things aren't.

[@SophisticatedHermit]

Insym: " I know, I know, people have told me hundreds of times to rightclick on abnormalities to fight them" People who were actually telling to leftclick: --_--

[@YamiEryie]

Nicee I've been waiting for another Lobotomy Corporation video it's really interesting and I can't wait to see more abnormalities

[@entangledatoms7153]

I seriously think you should hire a bunch of throwaway employees(depending on if it doesn’t bother your missions), for there’s a small chance that you can get the Iron Maiden SCP during a meltdown. Throwaway employees should also be useful for potentially catching your plague doctor or tree, and they could also fill the requirements for the finicky SCPs. Also, I don’t think your work day rank wouldn’t matter as much(seeing as you don’t use L.O.B. points as much anymore).

[@stealthmacaw7334]

[@kayoko9258]

Alephs are a tough nut to crack, keep them at bay or else shit really hits the fan lol, nothing compared to WAWs escaping tho, difficulty really picks up once you get one but as your employees level up and get better gear things get easier to manage... until they're not Hope you are having fun with the game, its tedious but it became one of my fav videogames and I keep replaying it once in a while :)

[@ldrake5688]

When I got Silent Orchestra, I just spammed it until I got the EGO suit and weapon and went on to complete the day. On Q Meltdowns I usually go with Common work to avoid lowering Q counter as much as possible. Still on my first play through and just figured out that missions are permanently finished by using memory reset for the first time haha. I have 5 Alephs now and somehow they are not the most problematic abno for me... This game has been very fun for me and I am excited for each videos on this in the future 😊

[@sekofoni]

hey nice to see you still enjoying this game i got two tips that i am sure noone has typed before for sure yep totaly. 1. similar to how you can drag select employs and direct them to specific abno. you can click the abno and it will give you the list of employs on it's department for you to select YOU CAN SWAP DEPARTMENTS WITH MOUCE Wheel. (this works also when assigning them to work. 2. there is this one ordeal that you should be slightly spoiled because it is totaly cheap and unfair annoying thing that feels bad to experience blind. purple midday (full sun) evacuate large rooms before it kicks in

I discovered your channel from Lethal Company but was super excited to see you picked up Lobotomy Corp. I'm currently playing myself and I can't wait to see how this plays out for you. Edit: Also a THREE PLUS HOUR UPLOAD AT THAT??! We are truly blessed.

[@TheMetalCorpser]

When the Silent Orchestra finishes his act he eats ALL your energy. Can't remember if that's a bug because I believe it was supposed to do massive white damage throughout the facility at the end but it does a tiny amount instead. Think it has a lot of bugs that never got fixed from one of the main devs leaving at some point. Some mods from the Nexus can fix the bugs but not all.

[@Dark_Slayer3000]

[@alcatraz160]

Orchestra is gives sick equipment if you can handle it, but its also one of the more easier ones to tame. Also not all alephs are created equally, there are some secret ones that give unique rewards but are extremely difficult (as in sometimes you may need to dedicate an entire playthrough just to beat it once) and well as ones weaker than certains WAW types. As for rabbit protocol. Make sure all employees have cleared out of the department you choose. Rabbits can clean up some WAWs but they won't do much more than soften some Alephs and in some circumstances can be even worse than doing nothing.

[@EllieCupcakes]

I don't understand much of what's going on half the time, but the creatures are so cool, the story is intriguing and I wait for every next episode eagerly! Wooooo!!
