Story boring and complicated

Sometimes when reading through Reverse 1999 story it makes me feel about dropping it altogether. It tries way too hard to be complicated for the sake of being complicated and the story end up not making sense. And it's not the translation fault, even the japanese audio is pretty much spot on...
When it's good, it's good, but when it's bad...it just breaks the magic. I get distracted while reading and don't seem to be able to focus on it.
It's a shame though as the setting is one of the greatest between the gacha games I play...
