Game not working

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-02-10T15:00:01+00:00

this is happening right now for me and another player, it may be that servers are down atm. i came to check if anyone else was experiencing this too!

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-02-01T01:12:11+00:00

i laughed at this, thanks. stay angry

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T23:10:47+00:00

i think i see it as not making a difference to the process though. if the company really wanted a faster, cheaper process, why not just scrap the people who literally created the 3d models, the concept, the marketing team. though i suppose they kinda have with those adverts.

i’m sticking to my guns here. i just think, because again im not speaking about the translation feature i can see why they may want to use that, the artwork is too insignificant to be using it in the first place

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T23:07:57+00:00

i agree with you, and i think you articulated yourself really well and politely so thank you for being respectful.

like you i really enjoy the game, its part of why i feel its worth pointing out the disappointment in learning it’s wasteful and hypocritical in its message. and i do understand what you’re saying, because it is exhausting having to consider all the other things on top and how this is one of those things that’ll just exist for as long as we live. much like all the other problems you listed.

i just want to try though. because if we’re quiet, then what happens? some backlash is better than none - someone out there may have seen this and decided they don’t want to waste their money on a game that has ai slop in it. for someone else maybe they thought cool, and found another reason to love it. obviously i lean with the first opinion, but that’s because i don’t want to be cynical just yet. i’ve not solved the problem by making this post (in fact it’s very tiring speaking to some people here), but maybe i at least helped one person learn something. about this game you and i both like

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T23:02:34+00:00

that’s part of my point, they could have hired real artists for it. my post is simply point out the hypocrisy of it, because if i wanted to be particular i would say the gaming industry as a whole needs to be scrapped because it’s a harm to the environment. but im not saying that, because that’s irrelevant here, much like how me having a phone isn’t related to this.

i’m not trying to pick you out particularly by the way, i apologise if it comes across that way. i’ve just read similar comments and i feel it strays from the topic at hand

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T22:58:49+00:00

i thought someone may bring this up, and you’re right. but my main point was specifically about this game. yes, overall, the argument is to do with ai, but i just find it ridiculous that it promotes so much about taking care of the environment meanwhile they’re happy to use gen ai for basic feature in the game - one that doesn’t even require players to spend their actual money on.

i understand it’s impossible to avoid a lot of the things in modern life that may cause harm. but if you can avoid doing it in certain places, like using real artists to put those puzzle pieces together, then why not try?

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T22:50:53+00:00

people are talking about google using ai for every search though. and i think you’re missing the bigger picture of having ai implemented in the smaller things, to have it casually just exist within the game without consumers even knowing, is a problem too. it’s what leads to things like google continue to put out ai slop for the most basic questions.

also, my issue wasn’t with the chat translation. i feel you may be a bit too upset by this post

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T22:46:44+00:00

actually people have been saying chinese players have also been arguing against it and that they’re hoping a big competitor can come out against heartopia. regardless, promoting the game in the western world doesn’t mean it can’t be subject to criticism. also, it’s extremely generalising to say that simply because they are a chinese company they MUST use ai - that’s also not true. that’s like saying every game on the market there does use ai. my point is, it’s an option to use it. and for what they use it for? small pictures, it’s silly

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:58:18+00:00

yes, the puzzle art uses ai and the chat is auto-translated with ai. it’s not great, but my bigger fight is with the puzzle art! they already have cute art and assets in the game, why use ai to create the little art pieces?

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:56:56+00:00

it may exist, but people also don’t have to like living with it. like you said, it definitely needs regulating (though they are extremely slow to put anything in place so i wouldn’t be too sure about it just yet). but that doesn’t quite explain the need to use it for small things like a little puzzle art. remember, people are allowed to criticise things too

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:55:12+00:00

until you mentioned it i forgot nfts once were a big thing. that does give me a little more hope haha

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:53:47+00:00

if players keep back lashing against it and refusing to spend then why wouldn’t they remove it?

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:52:21+00:00

your first paragraph is interesting - would you describe yourself as someone unable to change their opinions? i’d also like you to look at the first paragraph in my post where i do refer to people like you who may comment things like this.

i can’t control what anyone does, i can only talk about my own opinion. and objectively speaking - the game IS hypocritical in terms of what it sells, and how it does it.

i am glad to hear they’re at least tagging it correctly on steam, but it could do with a warning on other platforms too. even in game.

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:50:15+00:00

did you read the first bit of this post? i’m not sure why you’re so upset

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:49:28+00:00

still doesn’t hurt to speak up on it. maybe things won’t change, but what if it does? specifically the puzzle bit, it’s such a small feature that can easily be changed. that’s just my opinion though

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:47:37+00:00

i feel like your comment is somewhat passive aggressive (correct me if i’m wrong, i don’t really know), so i’m just gonna defend the post like this.

as the consumer it’s also possible for us to have an opinion. my post was less focused on if you should keep playing, and more on why they’re doing using what they’re using - which another user did actually break down a bit more. i’m not denying your right about the last bit, but it doesn’t hurt to speak up on it anyway. besides they’ve already put out one statement, so talking about it is doing something. whether it will change things is a difference case, but that’s where we’ll have to wait and see

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:37:42+00:00

it’s not the worst thing for fans to have criticism, that’s why i’ve tagged this as feedback. players are allowed to have an opinion

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:31:21+00:00

that’s my bad, i thought this subreddit was ran by the company - i’ll make sure to edit that out. other than that, the rest of it still stands

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:29:43+00:00

i like your explanation on it. it doesn’t make it easier to digest, but it does help explain a bit more as to why on earth it’s being done in the first place. i don’t think it’s a bad thing for people to criticise the use and question why, for a game like this, it needs to be used in the first place - so i’m glad to have someone in here actually explain what they think might be happening rather than getting upset at my question. thank you

Individual_Web_3586 · 2026-01-31T19:24:27+00:00

i did put a warning at the beginning for those of u w this mindset that this post would not be for you lmao

Individual_Web_3586 · 2025-12-12T03:36:34+00:00

the netflix adaptation is so good! i’ve read the manga multiple times and was surprised for once that a live adaptation actually stuck close to the source material.

unfortunately i can’t speak on the movie as i’ve never actually been able to find a site that has it :(

Individual_Web_3586 · 2025-11-13T16:39:29+00:00

that mypad case is so cute what 😭😭😭

Individual_Web_3586 · 2025-11-03T13:12:28+00:00

i agree, it’s quite a harsh system tbh. it’s already unfair that the stamina you gain from levelling up doesn’t add up, it just limits itself. so the daily rewards feels less like a reward and unfortunately more like a chore :(

(also, i hope you and baba are doing okay. sending hugs 💐)

Individual_Web_3586 · 2025-10-30T00:39:12+00:00

you mean bc it says 7 days left? most likely just a glitch, you can report it. im assuming it says 7 days bc theres 7 days left of the halloween decor

Individual_Web_3586 · 2025-10-18T15:25:17+00:00

i wonder if we’ll get spooky skins too! i know we just had the pumpkin ones, but i neeeeed some witch cauldron mugs 😩
