it's time for my usual ted-talk vomit in the comments... "Vereinsamt" (1884, "Grown Lonely") Vereinsamt is a poem by Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) about a Freigeist (lit. "freespirited [person]", I'll explain more later) being destined to wander about in the wilderness, never halting, never resting, with no place to call home (essentially - isn't that what our dear Timekeeper is?). The second part of the poem answers the problem with returning back to the [very] German hearth and home so we'll ignore that one.... Freigeist (Free thinker, libertine) A Freigeist was the term for someone in the 18th century believing in the freedom of not being constrained by traditional customs or norms from religion. Especially relevant for publicists (considering that back then, censoring was way more rampant than it is now) and artists (remember my ted-talk vomit about the Wiener Secession? they would be considered Freigeister) and the art scene, while unorthodox, following this way of thinking was to result in morally correct actions - or at the very least to wise actions. During their time, it was mostly critical thinkers and publishers who would receive this "honorary title", even if initially, anti-Freigeister would accuse them of being amoral and atheist. However, a Freigeist (at least in a German context) is not to be just reduced to sexual self-realization or the unrestrained pursuit of your own desires, to the detriment of your own self or others. Regarding Lucy Lucy's design reminds me of Metropolis (1927), a feature-length silent movie directed by Fritz Lang (1890-1976). Itself an adaptation of the novel by the same name penned by Thea von Harbou (1888-1954), it features the classic motive of the class struggle in a highly mechanised world with oversized machines as well as a "Maschinenmensch" (lit. machine human, mechanized human). I highly recommend you guys check it out by yourselves, so I'm not going to spoil anything - just wait until you get to the middle of the movie and you'll understand my reference! Semmelweis Ignaz Semmelweis (1818-1865) was a doctor in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. He discovered that childbed fever was due to a lack of hygiene and practiced evidence-based medicine. Thanks to him, thousands of mothers survived the critical time after childbirth and didn't catch infections. Unfortunately, most doctors didn't take him seriously since they considered hygiene a waste of time and adherence to it as contrary to the - back then - main theories regarding sources and conditions of illnesses. He was put into psychiatric care and died to unknown causes - even the report detailing the exhumation of Semmelweis' corpse contained contradictions and left more questions unanswered.
this is why I love this game so much. the lore they took from the pop culture of the past and a spin off into a beautiful storytelling and the personification of those lore into vibrant character design. a chef kiss indeed in the Gacha game community.
What I liked the most in this video is how even though they made the characters 3D, you can still see Reverse 1999's style in them. Them being 3D didn't change their design to conform to the "Hoyo-standard of anime characters" that we're seeing from many gachas. Bluepoch still kept firm at the stylistic choices for Re1999 even if it went from 2D to 3D. That's COMMITTMENT.
This anniversary trailer Is incredible, from the 3d visuals, to the Lucy AND Kakania?!? This is wild I am shocked they added fan favorites already!!! The garments are incredible too
Wow best anniversary events and free vampire 6 star arcanist new unit, very good move like star rail games like this needs more support, cant wait for 2.0.
Omg if enigma ever becomes playable it will honestly motivate me to keep playing this game after Jiu and Getian cause after them I'm not really hype for anyone. Maybe Marcus cause she's cute and I need a plant dps badly.
My thought on this trailer: first of course, free 6 star!!! And it's a vampire. Yesssa!!! Second, madam lucy is actually a real robot not a lady in robot suit really surprised me. Third, that jessica and regulus. Is that a new skin or a variant unit? Cause those ult animation is really elaborate for just some skin. And of course finally the continuation of main story. Man the dev really going all out and this is just the 1st anniversary.
In light of Lucy, Kakania and Semmelweiss all becoming playable, I'm now confident we'll get Enigma too. He's obviously set for a major role in the plot, extremely cool and popular design, it looks like they are warming the audience up to reap handsome monies with his arrival. And yeah, we already have Ezra so Enigma being human is not a problem.
Would like Enigma, but eh, Lucy it is. At least after I get Isolde, I'll be saving for Kakania next since I like her design. Also, free 6 star arcanist! Love Semmelweis' design too!
I was struggling not to see it until they announce it for the global server but man this this was far more than my expectations. My eyes were blessed by this masterpiece
Oh my god, everything looks amazing; but at the same time I wished I hadn't watch it because right now there's a Regulus banner and after seeing the special ultimate I'm tempted to pull for her
New main story is another storm, it would be funny if they jumped into Mesmer era, because that event is the only one that have 0 connection with anything in canon story (i don't read the recent event yet so CMIIW)
Man i wish enigma were the one be playable instead Lucy kinda disappointed. I NEED MORE MEN!!!!! And what the hell is that Regulus new ultimate or what????
This Regulus skin is "unique" rarity which has more effects than "advance" skins. It gives her a whole new ultimate animation, new voice line, and L2D in character selection screen
probably because the patch is based on/featuring those female characters just like this one its obvious Kakania and Lucy are very important characters, and they were teased way earlier in the story. Im confident they will add Enigma and that one old dude in this trailer
it seems bluepoch want a female intelligence right now since we got 6 in 1.4, i'm happy though cause i have also been waiting lucy to be playable. enigma may still have the spot for future main story update (i beg you bluepoch) or completely NPC forever lol since he's only a human and we didn't see him using gadget or something like ezra, right? can we get some object or animal again like pickles? 🥹 oh also, is this guy in 2:20 new? i haven't seen 1.7 story but he looks important.
Oh my gyaaaaat *Mommy Lucy* omg it's happening. I hope Arcana will come home soon. I love the 3d style while maintaining a traditional style to it. Regulus skin looks like new character. 🔥🎉
Is voyager gonna be another anan lee for free skin? They didnt shown her ult animation. Also jess and reg ult is crazy high quality. Definitely expensive
@hanzulco nah thats okay. I love that bloody girl xD they already being too generous for the reward. Will we got free potray of her tho? 😮 free p5 of her gonna be too good
@@nord023 there's no info about her potray, but since (in my understanding) rougelike mode is gonna be permanent mode, there's possibility it'll give us free potray. Semmelweiss is protagonist in this game mode, so hopefully. If not then you'd expect one copy for each anniversary 🤣 or might be some kind of "mission" like how we get sonetto's potray.
@@hanzulco ehhh, as long as its not another matilda which is potrayless is fine. But it will be mostly from mission. If not, roguelike mode is the closest one
