Reverse: 1999 - What’s the Story? (Lore Explained) 

MIN AND REVERSE 1999? BEST CROSSOVER

I played this game, because of its interesting lore and genre. Also I actually want a RU-vidr who explains the lore of this game, and I'm surprised that you play this game. You're the perfect RU-vidr I'm looking for, for lore summarization.

If you like history, yuri, time travel, and the power of friendship, then this lore is for you. I really appreciate the game's way of story telling. I should also add that the antagonist of this game is damn hot. Arcana is top tier waifu XD

I haven't played Reverse 1999 yet but seeing you make a video about it makes me want to play it now, thank you! I'll be waiting for your Genshin 4.2 Lore video soon!

Immediately after clicking off this video, a reverse 1999 ad pops up😂

Definitely need a recap for all the acts! 👌

omg you play this game too, i just keep on winning ! and i gotta say i love LOVE vertin so much. hands down one of my fav protagonists in any story-based games i played. Also, i love how not just their outfits and fashion, but also their accents and language actually represents which country they're from. it's so interesting to me!

Have been playing this game since launch, but I kind of rushed through the story because I wanted to get to the end game quickly and start grinding. Looking forward to you recapping the rest of the acts!

Great vid min! And thank you for helping us understand this complicated lore and story

Will you do one for parts 3 and 4? This was so well done and cleared up some questions I was left with!

Eagerly waiting for the next chapters the story has me hooked and now that we have vertin having an official team I know things are about to turn up

Thanks so much for this. Hopefully, you cover the following chapters ♥♥♥

Thank you so much girl! The story confused me early on, so I kept skipping it, but finally finding this from you, I know I'll be able to understand it

It would be amazing if you keep explaining its lore, I hardly understand anything I read while playing it, but this saved me ❤

Basically anime dr. Who with a dash of dr. Strange pretty much. Especially with the idea of warping time and magic. The timekeeper you play as also looks like a black butler character. Also I love how majority of the characters are based on historical figures and historical objects. Sputnik, Mesmer,the headless horseman, and there was another character in the game who Carrie’s a old computer that’s based on the inventor of the first Time Machine.

TYSMMM i just skipped through the whole story 😭 but this helps alot ❤️

This lore video was helpful for you to see somethings that you might have missed or didn’t notice in the story you should do more recap lore videos for reverse 1999

glad you'll be covering the game from now on

Thank goodness there was another lore video about Reverse 1999 because islandXD is the other one making a lore video about this game

Yay didnt expect you to cover this game, a very pleasent surprise

Lore is so good. I just started playing today and I'm invested in it.

i just clear it and so much fun with the story, thanks for the recap waiting the next part :)

Tysm for this vid! I skipped all the story cuz I’m lazy so I’m really grateful for this!

Thanks for explaining Reverse 1999 too Minsleif! I keep skipping the story since I accidentally skipped it once and understood nothing afterwards 😭

I loved the video, hope that you cover R:1999 in the future

I played through this game from launch until now~ I wanted to do the gameplay right away so I am happy you did give a summary of the first few chapters!

Yessssss, I was waiting for you to make a video about reverse 1999, This game is full of LORE and I like game with so much lore❤

oh what?! Did not know you covered this game! This is huge! Lets go!!!

Omg I love your voice so much. It’s so gentle and attractive! Anyways thanks for explaining this convoluted ass story. Turns I DO understand it, but was unsure because of how incoherent the story is conveyed at times.

Thanks for summarizing the first three chapters, I started zoning out at the end of Chapter 2.

Please part 2 , so many people need it

Yes! I've played this game when it was lunched, and I'm so glad you are covering the lore!

I just recently played this game, and I must say, it’s extremely interesting. The music, characters, illustrations, and story! I’m really enjoying the combat too knowing that the cards are RNG and all. As for the characters, I’m really enjoying their personalities and voices! Really love averting as protagonist, it’s so refreshing 💕

The game has been great so far fully completed story is generous with rewards and the pity system is pretty good. Increased odds at 60 rolls and guaranteed at 70 rolls

Thank you Min!!, I am soooo confused about the story , thank you 😊

I really hope you can explain the whole story thill chapter 4. I'm really confused with timeliness and stuff

Thank you so much Can't wait for next vid (my potato brain couldn't connect the story well 😅)

Finally a lore video of reverse 1999!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

I wish someone would just make a video with all the cutscenes/story portions, I am so busy with life that I am playing and quickly earning gems that I feel like I never have the time to enjoy the full story... having it on youtube would be great so I can just consume the story in my own time

I keep seeing this and it looks so goood

Thanks for making video on this game YOU ARE THE BEST minsleif

Thanks for the recommendation I'm now addicted👍

Thanks for making this video minsleif I'm really enjoying this game but you explain what's actually happening in the story a lot better than the game does

This is truly a very interesting Game and Story, I wonder how it will develop and i hope you do more Videos about it. …so, what exactly is the Structure of the Story Telling? How is it split up?

Peace and Love, peace and love. Love the voice on that lin!

i hit subscribe and like when i heard "not to flex, but i got... " Made me genuinely laugh and follow your content for the future.

OMG thank u!!! I’m getting confused with the lore😭

You have a very soothing voice, and it’s very nice to listen to. Just thought I’d say it as someone who doesn’t like the sound of their own voice lol

Kept seeing trailers this is nice.

It such a good game I’m glad you tried it out! I’ll be back after I finish the story so far for myself 😅

I got lost in the story. thanks for the recap!

Finally a creator I follow is covering the game 😭😭😭😭😭

Thank you for explaining some of this. I feel like the lore isn’t expressed to the player super well.

I'm still not over about the first few lines after naming youself when the character was literally just Vertin. And the fact that the *Teleport* was the one that's actually speaking

That moment when you were suprised that your favorite animal crossing and genshin impact lore streamer ended up deciding on taking on Reverse 1999

Got interested by the setting, lore and art about the game, plus the gacha rate is forgiving compared to others. Being a dolphin, this makes me happy. And just found out about your channel, thank you for covering the lore.

Take a shot every time Minsleif says Reverse 1999

Min always providing top high quality content!

I've never been hyped by the lore of game to a point where I literally write everything on a Word document... I was expecting to play the game for a few days but I just fell in love with it, the atmosphere is just gorgeous. I highly advice the people who haven't played it to give it a try 😁

Thanks for this video, i had a all the pieces of whats kind of going on but the whole time thingy really messed my mind, the story is so interesting and thw charecters are beautiful, however i think theres too many characters though, Im personally most excited for black dward

The story has me asking so many questions. Even the nameless cynical detective (???) who talks to you often adds more ambiguity than he does clarity. I can't wait for Ch5.

Really love this game, been anticipating since the global release trailer, even got a goated account after rerolling, owning A Knight, Sotheby, Voyager, Bkornblume, Tennant, X, and Charlie, I'm saving for both Tooth Fairy and Changeling coming in future updates, I probably have enough time to save for both.

Omg, the legendary crossover

it looks very promising storywise

I just started playing the game and the Vertin/Schneider final moments got a good grip on me. That moment I knew I am in.

I've started it and i have to say, I can't put it down as I want to know what happens next!! It does, however, take a while to understand everything, but once you do, it's fine.

It's a very cozy, interesting, sleeper horror game - and I do like it, but I'm glad for this video because i"m having ahard time keeping up with the story because of the translation. It's not clear if the weird choices are intentional, to convey a sense of weirdness, or just translation errors. I tend to assume translation errors, because the tooltips and explanations for resource gathering have the same issue. LIke, really, the GunMoll (Schneider) calls you 'my lord' in all sorts of grammatically & contextually wrong ways, while if she was saying "Boss" [Chicago/midwest colloquial minor honorific] would fit perfectly in both fixing grammar errors and ideal for the tone of 1929's Chicago.

I've been waiting for this. I've played passed this part, but not everything sunk in. On top of that, I certainly am not one for time travel, but this game may prove me wrong.

Should definitely play😊

Love it

the games art looks really pretty

i need part 2 of this lore explained

I tried keeping up until Vertin disappeared and the whole time I thought it was during a flashback but started going to war with the foundation, thanks for the touch up

Regulus actually didnt go to the agreed bookstore, something vertin correctly predicted and just followed the smell of the potion to find her instead. still a great vid. :)

The massacre actually happened!! It was almost exactly based on the Valentines Day Massacre, the npcs were even named after the real victims

I skipped the entire story to watch this video. You are a saintess 🙏

finally found the exact content about r1999 from yt algorithm, except guide about progressing account 😅

Go for it mLady😅.. I'll await you're Returning on the next Video and congrats on the Sponsor.🎉

It’s an interesting story, but i felt like they didn’t explain it well enough (either that or i wasn’t paying enough attention). Playing through it, it felt like they’re throwing all these important details and elements and not really elaborating much on it until later on. I don’t mind the hands off approach at storytelling, but the early chapters really felt like show and don’t tell or at least tell later. Just my opinion.

I am having a blast with the game. Combat is fun and the game really respect your IRL time.

i was very confused with what happened afterwards in what you went over in this video....cant wait for you to go into depth with that part if you plan to continue to do so! very much so in the conversation between forget me not, druvis, and vertin. i didnt quite understand what was being said.

This is my favorite game this year.

Hope u make a vid for all acts ❤

More videoo of reverse:1999 pleaseee!!

So vertin is like a recruiter for arcanist

3:56 "vernin and apple investigate" shows clip of apple obliterating a child

Holly....Min and Reverse:1999 best crossover yess!

Great summary! Can i make a tiktok video based on this video? im going to mention your channel too!

I started playing Reverse: 1999 just as 2024 started and I can proudly say that I have two of my already favorite characters X and Horropedia. Horropedia having been portrayed twice. Or maybe three times I'll have to check later. So safe to say I'm already loving the game.

I was a little bit confused about the storm and time travelling parts like if the storm destroys non-arcana humans, why does the Foundation still exists? Does the Foundation also exist in a bubble like Vertin's suitcase? Thanks for your explanation. Looking forward to more explanation videos about the lore

We need a lore recap for act 2 plsss

"If you're planning to grab Sotheby or A Knight" Me: *having both bc my luck is otherworldly in non Hoyoverse games*

Reverse 1999 got a real nice ost

i am more than a little insane about reverse: 1999. very very good game

id honestly rather you explain the story more than the game itself 😅 goodjob mate 🤙

SLAY SLAY SLAY SLAY SLAY❤

So she's a TimeLady uh.. Timekeeper. And also has a magic that's bigger on the inside.. interesting

Vertin is super interesting

Wait, there are several cutscenes I didn't remember in the game like that driver and sotheby scene. Were they taken from official tailer or something or were in beta?

Guy, We need to assemble to Matpat( Game Theorist ) channel, raid the comment, ask Him to make Theory of Reverse 1999
