I know this post is old, I really do not understand why anyone would care for the lore. It's a chimera of dark-fantasy and horror, very little of it original. You can point to almost anything from the game and find it's almost a direct copy of an idea from Souls, Berserk, love-craft mythos and popular horror. The dynamic of the main plot itself, with the protag being a side character to the prophesied god, is a straight copy of the Golden Age arc from berserk. I don't mean to shit on the game that hard, but the lore is extremely derivative. The game still makes it work as none of it really contradicts itself and it doesn't lessen the game as a game, but I can't see why someone would care enough to watch hours of lore on it.
The tranny stuff in the second game is a literal 1-1 rip off of Bridget's back story. And In my own playthrough I’m like 20 minutes in and the opening is basically RE4.
