yep you're actually right, Main literatures; Yi Sang - The Wings by Yi Sang, Faust - Faust by Goethe, Don Quixote - Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes Ryoshu - Hell Screen by Ryūnosuke Akutagawa, Meursault - The Stranger by Albert Camus, Hong lu - Dream of the Red Chamber by Cao Xueqin, Heathcliff - Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, Ishmael - Moby-Dick by Herman Melville, Rodion - Crime and Punishment by Fyodor Dostoevsky, Sinclair - Demian by Hermann Hesse Outis - The Odyssey by Homer Gregor - The Metamorphosis by Franz Kafka Dante - Dante's Inferno and Divine Comedy By Dante Alighieri also The Golden Bough By James George Frazer --------- It comes to the fore as a result of a magnificent blending, and the side stories are also processed from different books. And although these are the main books, each Part (Canto) contains 3-4 books, while the Intervallos contain 1 or 2 books.
Some funny things I though to point out since everyone is already telling you the book of origin on the characters. Yi Sang promo and honestly a lot of his dialogue is a wordplay with his name Yi Sang and the word Ideal in Korean Isang. Ryoshu story is basically about a painter hired by the rich to paint the most grotesgue and gruesome scenes in the world for their entertainment. The phrase Mersault says in the second half of his promo is a slightly modified part of The Stranger, as well as the one that apears above him "Today I killed my mother, or maybe it was yesterday." the beggining of The Stranger is "Today my mother died, or maybe it was yesterday." Rodion uses a axes as both a reference to their book of origin and a reference to a russian saying that you cant uncast a thrown axe, basically saying that you cant undo a murder.
Not sure if you caught it on the first view, but Yi Sang's introduction speech was full of puns referencing his own name 'YiSang' (I really liked how he delivered these pun-ridden speech in such serious/stoic fashion, and it's a big hint to his hidden personality more than just a blank mundane anyman stereotype)
There is a video from "Last Minute Essays" that explains a the books that the Limbus characters represent, it has no spoilers at all You dont have to react to it, but you can watch it on your own time to get a bit more of context "Limbus Company: All books referenced by the main cast"
Ah yes! That's who it was :D It's been a while since I've read the Odyssey but I remember the sequence better than the name. Thanks for letting me know.
12 lovable idiots on their way to complete their mission in the most chaotic way possible. What more can you ask for? There are 3 more main characters who are not direktly part of the Sinners: Dante (you, the manager with a clockhead), Vergilius (your guide to the inferno) and our bus driver Charon. The Divine Comedy with a twist.
Only now did I pay close enough attention to the lines Meursault speaks during his EGO and realize its his court trial with the way he describes the eyes of others looking and judging him.
Can't wait to see your walkthrough of the game! There are also season trailers, but there may be spoilers in there. So I recommend at least listening to the music from the season 3, 4, and 5 trailers: Limbus Company OST - Overwhelming Limbus Company OST - Erlkönig Limbus Company OST - Oblivion
Not too sure about that one tbh. Yes, official teasers and trailers reveal snippets of future content to generate hype and some ideas for theorycrafting, but there's not enough context to be considered spoilers.
Ah so the sinners are from the following literature: Sinclair- from the German novel "Demian" Outis - is from the Odyssey (Outis the name Odysseues gave the cyyclops meaning noone) Gregor- from the Kafka novel "The Metamorph" Don Quixote- Spanish novel "Don Quixote" Ryoshu- Japanese short story "Hell Screen" Mersault- French novel "The Stranger" Hong Lu- Chinese novel "dream of the red chamber" Heathcliff- British novel "Wuthering Heights" Faust- from "Faust" Yi Sang- Korean short story "The wings" Ishmael - American novel "Moby Dick" Rodion- Russian novel "Crime and punishment"
Meursolt-> "the stranger" Yi sang -> "wings" by yi sang Hong lu> from Chinese book Sinclear-> "Demian" Outis-> Homers from encounter with cyclopus Russian meme "Rodeon got in a retierment house😄 Rodeon got in a retierment house but they take his axe😢"
I find it kind of funny how one of the most well known and studied Chinese book is not widely known by people in the US. Literary professors literally fight each other over their opinions on the ending which was written for the book after the author's death.
Each character represents certain country literature figure Yi Sang - not really a character, but korean avantgarde poet, though this character references his kinda autobiographic story Wings. Faust - Faust (Germany) Don Quixote - Don Quixote (Spain) Ryoshu - Hell's screen (Japan) Meursault - Stranger (France) Hong lu - Dream of the Red Chamber (China) Heathcliff - Wuthering Heights (Britain) Ishmael - Moby Dick (America) Rodion - Crime and Punishment (Russia) Sinclair - Demian (Switzerland) Outis - Odissey (Greece) Gregor - Metamorphosis (Israel? we kinda don't really know which country it really represents, but a lot of signs point to it) EDIT: wrong Sinclair country

If you're planning on playing the game on camera, I recommend video format over livestreaming. Live chat really attracts backseaters and spoilers.
Yeah, I agree with rakshaa. The PM community is very passionate, and not all of us are capable of containing our excitement, unfortunately.
@@fierygallades6122 It really has been getting worse.
Definitely streaming these games is just asking your chat to play the game for you most of the time.
Agreed! But as long as he gets warnings and tips in the comments (within reason, ofc,) he should be good.
Yeah, completely agree
As for Outis, you were right with Homer's Odyssey. Outis is the name Odysseus takes in the land of the giants. It means "Nobody".
Some funny things I though to point out since everyone is already telling you the book of origin on the characters. Yi Sang promo and honestly a lot of his dialogue is a wordplay with his name Yi Sang and the word Ideal in Korean Isang.

Yeah this is a pretty good idea if you want to know about the source material without reading a limbillion pages(thanks Hong Lu).
Oh, I'm sure you remember Outis from the Oddysey.
It's greek for "No one." After all, it was No One who blidned the cyclops.
Ah yes! That's who it was :D It's been a while since I've read the Odyssey but I remember the sequence better than the name. Thanks for letting me know.

I really do reccomend that, when you play Limbus Company, that you give each characters trailer another look after finishing their Canto.
We finally do it~ We reching the tiping point!!!
i recommend watch Last Minute Essays: Limbus Company if you want to know all the book sinner are form
Don quixote :"pulls out a spear"
Him: "thet anime sword"

Hong lu> from Chinese book
Sinclear-> "Demian"
Outis-> Homers from encounter with cyclopus
Russian meme
"Rodeon got in a retierment house😄
Rodeon got in a retierment house but they take his axe😢"
I find it kind of funny how one of the most well known and studied Chinese book is not widely known by people in the US. Literary professors literally fight each other over their opinions on the ending which was written for the book after the author's death.
Seeing that again, I understand so many things...
They reference so many things but you don't notice it until you reach that part of the story.
Yi sang keep repeating his name in his intrduction
at this point he's just gonna play the games and I'm all up for it
