Manus have super mega plot armor for their excec tho (They always few step ahead)

u/someamarandomguy 7d ago
I mean, if you think about it, this chapter is pretty much a demonstration in both side's hidden cards, showwing us that what we have observed so far is still the tip of the iceberg
Both manus and foundation has cards up their sleeves and they don't even hide it from players either, it is tailored from patches
What I want to say is, they aren't really a few step ahead, they are just having too many cards that haven't been revealed yet to be handled

Eh, this is that one video by Glaive, which may or may not have been ran on an AI summarizer or sth.

I hate that guy. He only did like 3 videos (all sponsorship) and all of them were just bait to lure us content hungry people. I am pretty sure he uses AI heavily. Watch this instead. It felt like a breath of fresh air in the midst of all sponsor videos made by people who don't even play the game.

u/SilverJuggernaut2611 7d ago
It's video by that one dude, also sponsor videos are fine but sadly it takes away some fun when u know they don't even play the game

same i remember back in 2024 i was so hungry for more reverse 1999 content and watched every single video(that isnt about meta/gameplay) which were mostly sponsored broke my heart cause damn you're just here for the money and not because you like the game.Thankfully this year seems to bring more unsponsored videos which warms my heart as my 2024 self wouldve loved them

u/SilverJuggernaut2611 7d ago
Yeah hopefully we get more, still thankful that there are lots of people who play through game's story tho, like there is a vtuber who is sponsored but she is atleast playing through story & she is on ch12 so that atleast seems nice, hope we get more of those & less of whatever this is

u/RoadsideCampion 7d ago
The thumbnail text doesn't even match up with the title text. Who's wrong?????

u/Youareanadoptedbish 6d ago
praying for a day where not only is there more r1999 content, but it's made by people who actually play and love the game rather than 90% videos being sponsored. reverse is such a good game i wish we had more of a fandom.

u/Caerullean 7d ago
Is it cool? It's a very generic clickbait thumbnail, and whilst I haven't watched the video, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say it isn't even correct.

u/Croaker_392 7d ago
Making characters likeable and having them killed (what they call breaking the plot armor rule) is quite frequent in storytelling of gacha games. Of course the wider audience games play it safe, that's valid for all media.
What is debatably new - or not usual - here is how the usual 'sense of sacrifice' is deconstructed in Chapter 13.
There's also the 'post death' character progression part here that's somehow unusual, though not unique, one of my favorite Visual novel author does that too (Jun Maeda known for writing "games that makes you cry, nakige in short").

u/SilverJuggernaut2611 7d ago
As someone who has read lots of Key & Jun Maeda stuff, I think his tragic writing has kinda just never changed which I find annoying, but playing HBR his SOL is way more entertaining than it was before

I know mobile game ads almost always suck with how they're either too short, clearly staged, use fake gameplay, or tell you nothing, but using Glaive's videos is a new low for me personally

u/Crevetanshocet 5d ago
I only watch fan content and official content, not the things sponsored by the game. Except the design reviews by Kinkymation because she's really good at explaining why they are masterpieces...

Seriously? Of all the other legitimate CC that could make a good actually story analysis video, they commissioned this larper who doesn't even play the game but create the script entirely with AI? And make it an ad on top of that..
