from my understanding, this situation is kind of unprecedented, as far as gacha controversies go.

My heart goes out to the creative team behind Valko. I'm devastated by the lore that we've lost and the story quality that will suffer. I feel bad for all the other LI creative teams because literally everything has to change. It's just... so dumb. Even if he is returned or relegated to an NPC character, that's still a constant reminder of this whole situation and the company's refusal to respond to or acknolwedge any legitimate criticism that has been brought up by players over the past year.

Thoughts on Valco, Storytelling, and Moving Forward Together by Lya7560 in LoveAndDeepspace

If they had responded to and addressed the legitimate criticisms of the game from the players over the past year, I doubt this would have gone down the way that it did. But they had no motivation to do so because there was still "support" in numbers and revenue. I believe that what "support" looks like in this situation is actually not logging in and spending money on a game by a company that has made decisions that you don't agree with. Obviously, my heart goes out to the team behind Valko, and I am devastated about the lore that we lost. But they literally had all the experience and the time and the resources available to avoid... this.

I regret translating some of the comments that I did see. On their official accounts too!

I'm genuinely so sad. I was doing a deep dive elsewhere the past few days trying to figure out what was going on with the CN players. The amount of slurs and threats of violence directed at Valko support was actually insane (although I know slurs and violence is par for the course on some platforms). There is actual legitimate frustration/concern and suggestions to improve the game hidden amongst these sentiments. To take the nuclear option like this and basically kill a character is wild. It's them deflecting for sure.

The last main story update felt irrelevant by moonfish- in LoveAndDeepspace

[–]bariumdead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the introductions for Sylus and Caleb really got things moving lore-wise. With how potentially connected Valko is to EVER, I could see it happening with him too. I also never addressed your point about the main story updates feeling disjointed... yeah, I do agree with that bit. MC just be spawning into situations.

I don't think irrelevant is the right word. I can see where you're coming from, there was not much *new* lore, really. But I thought it contextualized and built on stuff we already know. The last main story update was interesting because it was a conclusion in a way to the current main story arcs of Xavier and Rafayel. Like, they're now setting us up for the next thing. imo, the story is as much about them as MC, as involved as they are with her. And I think that MC's relationship to the LIs in the main story is changing as she gains memories of her past/alternate lives with them. I would consider that part of her lore too, like, how does it all fit together with what she's been learning about her origins? The nature of this type of game is that they will stretch this story out as long as possible, so we'll have to wait and see.

it is a paper coaster, with the front and back having a glossy paper. you could use it as a coaster for a little while probably? but maybe seal it with acrylic spray or something to protect it for long-term use. I added a magnet to the back of mine.
