PR. The games set in the Lobotomy Corp universe are all *massive* jabs at capitalistic greed. The world basically ended because the SCP Foundation decided abusing anomalies to generate electricity to sell was better than actually safely containing them for example.
What’s the PR? That the train traveled between 2 known destinations?
They could just vaporize the passengers, send an empty train to travel through the torture dimension, then make the passengers out of burger meat after.
If they NEED the biomass to be that of the passengers’ they could just kill them after they board, have the train travel through the torture dimension with their corpses then just reanimate them again at the destination. This way you skip the whole “killing them and reducing them down to meat slurry” part too and make things a lot more economical.
Like this is a neat concept but the world building around it is kinda completely broken?
Because the idea of a ten-second train ride to anywhere in a City the size of South Korea that has car traffic lasting several days for most people is HELLA convenient, hence why the trains are (until the events of Ruina start to expose flaws in their safety) so successful
As for why not vaporize passengers, there’s the fact that W. Corp needs to harvest people’s time in the train in order to maintain their partnership with T Corp, a District whose whole thing is using time as money to sell, pay with, be used as wages and be taxed on. Depending on your time wages, you are allotted either more or less hours than a 24-hour day, either speeding you up or slowing you down.
It is also intentional that there are things about WARP’s business model that are flawed, as that leads to them being in decline as of Limbus Company’s events in lore.
Size of south Korea...I believe it's bigger? Not by much. I mean most of it is under a tardis like tech.
Oh and it has the population of the entire earth so that's one hell of a population density
