the rayashki story is the very first time i gave a fck abt the storm tbh, i was so happy abt the main story ending until i reach vila's character story ... it felt like everything was all for naught, it made me frustrated. such a good patch!

Yes! Honestly, the storm was a good patch because that really solidified how much the storm sucks right before 1.9. 😭

On the first few chapters, I saw the storm as a distant calamity. Something you heard than happened to someone else and get sad about it. On the most recent main story chapter, seeing Marcus confronting the Manus about how it affected her, how she lost those she cared about to it and hoped in a way to be able to contact them was the first time I started to fell the storm closer. On this patch chapter, it was not more a distant disaster. It was at my door. It was not something than felt than was happening to someone else, was something than erased what I was working on as I got hooked into the characters at Rayashki fighting for their home. I wanted to help even if was just me playing the game.... and than Vila's character story happened. I was feeling a dread at every word, I knew what was happening but was hoping 'no, I'm wrong. That is not what happened. I'm wrong. I'm wrong.' I was denying myself of the role as someone reading a story than could tell by external factors what would happens because the investment on it. Trying to delude myself just because I wanted those characters to not have more suffering. That is how good Reverse:1999 storytelling was for this patch (and in general).

The moment I read Rayashiki is gone due to storm, I legit sobbed in frustration. I was so absorbed to the characters, the people of Rayashiki-their attitude, conflict, efforts, and dedication toward the survival and resurrection of their beloved town-that when I reached that part, all I could said was "bruh what the f ..." then tears started rolling 😭

I absolutely adore how you explain and explore these characters/story! One day you should def do an analysis regarding the main story chapters for 1.x series as I’d love to see you explore the topics and evolution of characters-especially vertain or sonnetto

Thank you so much! I hope to do the main story or a main story character at some point, it’s just figuring out how I’m going to do that 😅 but I definitely will!

As a Russian, Ryashki story hit too close to home and I am so happy know that so many people enjoy this bittersweet story, that truly can resonate with anyone who have encountered hardships and doubts .

I probably spent the entire story screaming "PROTECT COMRADE PUMPKIN AVGUST, AWAY FROM THE MUNCHKINU!" As an aside, the soundtrack slaps.

Reverse 1999 is a postmodern masterpiece. It is hard to explain because it can get philosophical and lot buzzword. So few decades ago few philosopher (especially in french) declare that we no longer in the modern age but more in posmodern. What it means that a grand story of history or what we call historical progress is not sufficient. Later the philosophers even actively destruct this grand narative of history. The force of progress and modernity in reverse 1999 is represent by foundation meanwhile forces of posmodernist deconstruction represent by Manus. While forces of modernity destroy community and minority voice, the destruction of posmodern deconstruction ala Manus also destructive. There are forces in the cultural war in the internet for example, one side for progress make the minority pain and suffering trivial for progress, and the other side batshit insane change history whatever they like.
