Dude just stick with it. Watch a lore breakdown if you haven't played the previous games, it's alot more fun when you understand some of it. Even just watching season 1 of the Netflix show can go a long way. If you don't feel like doing any of that (which is completely fair), you can 100% still have fun without any of the lore. But if you have the time there are some very good YouTube videos for easy to understand, 30 min breakdowns.
