If I play the Digest Edition of Rance I and II before Rance 03, will I lose much of the context?

My reading speed in Japanese is very slow, so I wanted to spend as little time as possible on Rance 1 and 2 and go straight to Rance 3 Remake, but I'm afraid of losing the context of 03 due to possible retcons in 01 and 02, since the Digest Edition are of the classic versions, not the remakes.

(I plan to play 01 and 02 at some point though, but at the moment I just want to jump to 03 because it's more motivating to play in Japanese)
