Lobotomy Corporation is an indie horror strategy management simulation video game for Microsoft Windows developed and published by South Korean studio Project Moon in April 2018. The sequel, deck-building game Library of Ruina, was released for Windows and Xbox One in August 2021.[1] The third installment, dungeon role-playing game Limbus Company is in development.
The Player, who is referred as "X," is the manager of an underground power company called "Lobotomy Corporation" that harvests energy from strange beings known as "Abnormalities." They are tasked with overseeing the process and must command their employees to "work" on these Abnormalities in order to fill the daily "quota" of energy, but must also suppress them in order to place them back in their containment if they breach.
The meta of the game is divided between two different phases: preparation and management (the latter of which is the "meat" of the game). The preparation determines the management phase: in it, the player can hire new employees, boost existing employees' stats (Fortitude, Prudence, Temperance, and Justice), assign them to different departments, and equip them with E.G.O weapons and suits. The management phase consists of sending these employees to extract energy from Abnormalities. The success of this process can vary wildly depending on the circumstances of the work, as each Abnormality has its unique set of traits that determine how it will behave and what dangers it poses. What makes things challenging is that information about these traits isn't available from the get-go, and the player must discover them through trial and error by earning information points, which are gained through the aforementioned work process, and can be used to learn specific traits of the Abnormality, such as work preferences, breach behavior and (only if the player has collected enough information) weapons and armor.
Once enough energy is collected, the player can end the day and have their performance rated from S (the best) to F (the worst). This rating is influenced by how many employees survived the day, and is directly proportional to the reward the player will receive, which are "LOB" points, which the player can use to promote existing employees or hire new ones. A penalty is applied to the amount of "LOB" points received at the end of the day based on the danger levels of the Abnormalities that breached during the day. Should the player decide to continue, they will (usually) be forced to choose new Abnormalities out of a selection of three. The only information given about the selectable Abnormalities is their classification numbers and a small text meant to describe them in an intriguing yet mystifying way. Once an Abnormality is chosen, it is added with the rest and the preparation phase begins again. As each day passes, the game will select more difficult Abnormalities for the player to choose from.
Instead of spinning 1-3 on the wheel you should do 1-6 since you can re extract
I believe in you Foreman. Use the power of therapy.
Edit, a fair rule for E.G.O would be to require you have the abnormality for one day before you can use it. As you would need to farm the gear originally to get it, so the earliest you can equip the E.G.O is the day after you get it.
A task undertaken to pay homage to a very special videogame. Through relentless self-inflicted misery. discord.gg/foreman
I gotta be honest i first read this as "hostage" and not homage, and i was ready to agree with this feeling akin to a hostage situation
Just curious, are you also gonna play Limbus Company?
@@joddelrealingo7737 he said he would someday, unsure when
One-Punch-Man: "i'm just a guy that's a hero for fun."
Foreman: "I'm just a guy who makes videos for fun."
One of the greatest crimes of the Ruina playthrough (other than the comments section) was not getting Arang back, the wheels sins have now been forgiven. Especially with the first spin!
Edit: The Wheel has been foresaken once again. Goddamn.
Fate's a nasty thing yeah
We finally got bro back only to be the first one to die, this some bs
The is the Nuzlobotomy we waited for.
Nothing bring more joy to the average foreman viewer more joy then watching foreman rage and complain
I wasn't around to witness the Lob Corp seasons as they were running (tho i was there for Ruina), I find it nice to see a Lob Corp run unfold. I do hope those Backers see the light of day at some point, I believe in the mercy of wheel~
gotta love the warning at the beginning of the video
the bird theme for punishing bird tho
hey
thats hell youre walking into
And this is why you have squads for damage and resistance types, because abnormalities dont care about your damage preferences, only their kill count
Plz, I know its not how it works now but maby you will, make long red hair nugget named Yuri, you will understand in future.
I kinda like this idea, almost playing lob corp like a roguelike... Definitely adds a lot more stakes and excitement to the game
Now that hes doing backer abnos, theres going to be a lot of "ooo, what does this do?" before a near facility wipe
Congrats on 4k subs! I'll be praying for you(r sanity) in this challenge, so good luck! Hopefully no ClerkLivesMatter abnos. Also, RIP the brave and stupid warriors we've already lost.
A couple of things:
1. Maybe allow a single re-extract like in base game and/or a single re-spin per day. Because RNG can be very unforgiving.
2. If one or more backer abnos show up, pick between them. More unknown more fun!
Wish the supressions were reset-able without losing the abnormality progress since it'd require like 3 full replays from legit ingame resets otherwise. Also Do Not Press overwrites the randomizer.
Just after i reached Day 49 playing Lob Corp legitimately(thanks in no small part to your playthrough giving me an idea for how to beat the hardest challenges), i see you trying the craziest idea i could think of. Good luck!
I just started watching your entire lob corp playthrough and imagine my surprise when i see you just uploaded another lob corp vid how lucky
Oh gosh this is going to be a *treat* huh~
Excited to see this playthrough, Foreman! Good to see EvA back in the facility!
Welp. RIP Arang. Went down like their good old friend Anthony.
i just finished watching your original series, and i finally got this game for myself as well! your videos introduced me to this amazing game and i'm excited to see where things go with this new challenge!
1:54 ... Oh no... I can already kinda see the possible end of this all...
Ahem... Lobotomeme Corporation by Archangela ending... Ahem...
Yoooo this is gonna be awesome! Good luck foreman
Ruin has (once again) come to our family.
Good luck my man, may the Well of Humanity bless you with no Alriune or Silent Orchestra. ✌️
Edit: 52:32 - IT'S MY BOY WOOOOO 🎉
B-b-but... no Alriune means no pink crossbow gang Also good to see Rema again, hopefully they can resist sipping the tree sap this time
1:11:30 - 1:12:10 went from "WE'RE SO BACK" to "it's over.." so quick.
Heck yeah! :D
Arang's back!! :D
That was splendin.
Anyway yeah Taggart died again cause of something rapidly approaching him and him having no idea what it is
Oh hey! we're back in the facility, surely nothing will ever go wrong with Foreman at the wheel (heh.)
A very interesting spin on the formula, both makes some things easier as you aren't worrying as much about perfecting every little thing, but simultaneously it makes every slip up all the more impactful because Lobcorp forever and always is a game that'll snap you for no good reason.
May lady luck favour you!
(A similar idea I've also had going for a bit was a run from the very beginning of a playthrough where you never reset/mem rep until you are forced to and it's always a day one reset. Half making the game a lot more roguelite-y and seeing how many wraps it takes to hit day 50)
Sees the video is 1hour 45minutes, looks at the NG+ RTA speedrun - 2hours. Well, good luck Foreman.
he is 100% NOT doing a speedrun. He isn't that masochistic yet.
foreman is such a good youtuber he really deserves more viewership he's just so entertaining
"iron man mode" mans got 999 boxes and rabbit team unlocked lmao
Whelp, I’ll go grab the spreadsheet…
(oh, and if you want someone capable of working on meat lantern, you have my permission to throw pixel under the bus and lower his temperance)
Damn, I am staying away from PM stuffs these days, but seeing your vid really made me happy. Hopefully you stay sane during your journey!
To be fair if someone stormed my offices I’d probably listen to their demands. We all know what happened to the arcknights guy when their offices got stormed
But literally nothing happened. The drama just conveniently started when PM wasn't legally allowed to respond
Look into the drama stuff again. I think a lot of people overreacted.
Congratulations to 4k Subs Foreman! :D
We ballin
All I can say is you are insane. Good luck for the journey ahead! I'm glad I'm only a spectator in this madness...
Good luck man, good luck.
I can't believe so much time has passed already... What a pleasant surprise to see this video. Good luck!
It's good to be back and to see all the nuggets again 🥺
call it the lobcorp nuzlocke
loblocke?
Me as a Finnish person, whose country literally has a brand of beer called "karhu" or in English, bear.
Creator must have really not liked your soul. Chose you the worst fate... happens to best of us, good luck and never give up
lets try our best once again
this is gonna be awesome
"make her thicker" is crazy.
So here we are again, back at day 1, back at square 1, it is time to march forwards towards the future. After all, we’ve done this millions of times before.
Wooo glenkabobs back! I look forward to your vaguely theatening and/or terryfing comments each episode
really interested in seeing more like this!! good luck!!
It's time for another vendetta
Epic jumpscare at 33:06 (note! Very spooky!)
Crossbow gang is back together aww yeaaa 😎
i loved that tree.... ;w;
The lack of meltdowns TECHNICALLY means that you could just ignore anything that won't bust out or do shit for your negligence, so maybe some kind of requirement to keep things interesting could be needed? If you get Silent Orchestra there's no issue with just ignoring it entirely because there's no meltdown to force work, y'know? In theory you could just One Sin every day unless you got something like the one backer abnormality I will not name or describe that dislikes not being worked on. While it would be boring and slow to One Sin (So I know you won't) everything, there are more fortuitous works with just as little risk like Knight of Despair or such a low chance of issues happening on their own like Dreaming Current.
Gotta say though, Day 3 now looked a lot better than Day 3 back then when you got wiped by Forsaken Murderer and Old Lady.
Um... You might already have thought of this, but:
Are you 2 loop minimum'ing, or is the lower layer an exception for 1 Memrep?
EDIT: oh, new game plus. IGNORE ME, good luck.
I.... dont think you can beat Lobcorp with not a single memrep.
It's part of the story.
Backer abnos are the ones suggested by people on the tumbler blog and backers, you can tell which they are because they start with D
(also why the hate against punishing bird 😟)
Can't wait for Library of ruina!
I do have an idea for a Ruina challenge run, thoughts for the future
@@ForemanPlaysStuff maybe A side objective could be you Experimenting for the Most Overpowered character.
No retries, no memrep, no pausing, no fast forwarding, no lob points, no looking at the screen, no touching the keyboard
No pc
let your employees do your job for you :D
only music allowed is 2nd trumpet, ya know, to pump needless amounts of anxiety into every moment!
@@sunnyd6519 big bird
ah shit, here we go again
foreman you madmann
bold move
Well isn't this a fun facility
let's go!!! so excited for this!
Awwwr :C Arang's gone alraedy...
Don't forget that some abnormalities require lower stats than 3. I hope you don't lose someone to a memory whoops moment
Edit: I would suggest "use EGO gear relative to the amount of that difficulty you have". If you have 2 Aleph class, you can use 2 different sets (or individual pieces, if there is not two pieces to the set) of Aleph gear you have. If you have one He class and one Teth class, you can sue one He class EGO set and one Teth class EGO set. And so on. That way you can kiiiinda keep pace while giving yourself a slight advantage? I'd say it's more important for Waw and Aleph class, so I'd probably go with those two having this more loose restriction just to give yourself a better shot lol
Well, predictions, if you've got all the meta progression and don't have to do core suppresion, unless you do something stupid I can see you making it all the way back to the endgame, and then promptly die to the endgame BS. With or without ego the day to day of lob corp us pretty easy if you know the game. It's just the moment you have to do the game's challenges is when the game gets rough.
May more than god save you.
I see Fear and Hunger wasn't enough suffering for you, but I welcome you going to suffer yet more!
Random Annomalies?
Does that mean backer annomalies? :O
Watching the video explains the video
Why wouldn't it?
Dear god
Suffer for our entertainment.
Oh no
👍
I don't know why you would do this to yourself but I'll watch it nonetheless.
Hey I think you have a chronic case of skill issue also do it but after you press the lobotomy logo on the menu no balls
Why are you torturing yourself mate, it will be fun to watch but....
Just take care of yourself
This is impossible to get the true ending because you have to memrep/day 1 reset to complete both hokma and binner. But judging by the "1 of ???" that may be a moot point
They have full realization of the seed of light. This is new game+
@@bestaround3323 ...oh its not. its not a full reset. i somehow didnt notice. OOPS
@@RealityMasterRogue watching the video explains the video lol
@@bestaround3323 i am not very observant
foremen, are you a masochist?
Are you out of your mind
Shouldn't you do a full save wipe for such intend then?
Kind of defeats the purpose of ironman run if you're starting with NG+
To make a save wipe - press lob logo on the main menu
He knows. He said at the beginning of the video he may do a true reset run after this.
You can't beat the game with no mem reps due to their not being enough time to do both of the last two core suppression in one run.
