First of all, I'll say that regardless of if you have no idea about the PMverse, or are a long time fan, I'd absolutely recommend giving Limbus Company a try.

Limbus Company (up to Chapter 3, as of writing) is pretty good! Like Lobotomy Corporation and Library of Ruina before it, there is one very specific thing you need to do at all times (after the very easy beginner battles, of course) - Pay Attention. Failing to do so, especially earlier on, and attempting to auto-resolve or bunga through every encounter will often result in losses, incoherent screaming, repeats of the same level, and complaints about difficulty (which, admittedly, are sometimes justified) but in general, if you're using your head and reading enemy attacks, status effects and passives, the game becomes a good deal easier.

Aside from that, the art, characters, music, designs, worldbuilding, pretty much everything in that regard has a lot of love put into it, and you'll of course especially love it if you're already a long-time fan. Additionally, if you also like depression, good people dying for horrible reasons, or just a daily dose of "Wow, The City sucks!" well, this game will supply more than enough of that.

I'm afraid that, despite my recommendation, the auto-targeting for normal battles can't be defended very much. When 4 or 5 of your 8 attacks are redirected towards an enemy that's staggered with 3 health remaining, it can be incredibly frustrating, especially when it gets one of your sinners smashed in that same turn. Abnormality battles suffer a lot less from this thanks to the fact that you can manually target enemies. The only other "main" issue WAS that thread was pretty difficult to obtain outside of Mirror Dungeons, but the new addition of the individual thread and EXP levels makes this a non-issue.

However, I DO advise you to keep an open mind, as PM are pretty good at improving their games over time, and actually do listen to their fans. EDIT: And we've now got a roadmap too!

Oh, uh... yeah, the gacha stuff. It's okay. Rates honestly feel better than they do in a lot of other gachas. Still, if you don't like em, might not be your cup of tea. And Ishmael is best girl, do not @ me.
