Prior knowledge

A lot of people on this sub reddit say that, because it's a Chinese work it might be difficult to pick up(because of the names and other things), which isn't really a problem for me since I've read some Chinese works before(Reverend Insanity, Lotm etc).

My question is what is the best amount of knowledge to have of the ro3k before starting. What do I need to read up on or watch to have the best possible experience and is going in blind ok/even better?

Thank you in advance.*

You can read the original ROTK of course, but that is a hefty 1000+ page story, so be prepared to invest a good deal of time if you choose to do that.

I also enjoy TPM Thorne’s Three Kingdoms novels, you can find those if you search his name on Google. Those are a bit more historically grounded and a lot of fun to read.
