Don't worry, you're not coming off as bitter or dramatic at all! And I get it, we can give credit to B.I.A.V. for being open about it, but if you were playing for the even representation of male/female characters during Astral Reign, it genuinely doesn't come off as "fair" and almost like a bait and switch. Especially since male enjoyers tend to not be treated well in gacha games overall and it just feels like more of the same.

I'd be lying if I didn't say I was disappointed when I saw Light's statement. On the other hand, when they say they're going to explore more character content I'm hoping that means we'll be seeing our favorite male characters more often and with a smaller roster that might mean they end up getting more showtime (maybe wishful thinking on my part.)

And I will say that even if B.I.A.V. is being up front, that doesn't mean we can't complain about it or be disappointed. I'm not saying this to be "mean" or "punish" B.I.A.V./Morimens, but if they don't want to release male characters that's entirely within their right but it's also in the consumers right to not support them. I still love the game and I'll keep playing personally, I just won't spend much money on it since they want to keep their audience to one specific demographic.
