GOOD MORNING BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE!!

TODAY IS D-DAY!!

WE FINALLY KNOW, VER 6.0 WILL HAVE NO VALKO.

NO VALKO = GLOBAL BLACKOUT DAY

WHICH MEANS:

⚠️ NO LOGGING IN
⚠️ NO USING OF GAME HASHTAGS
⚠️ NO CREATING OF ARTS OR FICS OR VIDEOS

HOLD THE LINE GUYS!
THE FIGHT ISN'T OVER!

[Roozu | bring wolfie back 🌹🐇🐦‍⬛🐺 @Roozu_28]

❗️Blackout day❗️

We want a family of 6!

We're not tired. we're not done. we're not leaving Valko behind!

Dear developers / @Love_Deepspace ,

Thank you for creating a game that gave us so many unforgettable moments, emotions, and memories. Thank you for the stories that made us laugh, cry, hope, and fall in love with these characters.

No matter what happens next, I'll always be grateful for what this game once meant to me.

MOONHOWL PARTY RULES #5: a pack never abandons its own. If the Alpha walks away, the pack follows.

So today, I choose to do the same.

Goodbye, and thank you for everything.

Well, that’s it. Im done playing this game … @Love_Deepspace

[Chix❄️🪷🐺 #BRINGVALKOBACK @chixgachalife]

IT'S OVER!!!😭😭

I guess it's finally time to say goodbye to Love and Deepspace.

Thank you for all the memories, Zayne, Caleb, Sylus, Xavier, and Rafayel. You were the reason I stayed for so long.

I never thought I'd lose the motivation to open this game, but here we are.

Goodbye.

[Perseus @PerseusLeGrand]

Je suis désolé, mais je trouve ça absolument horrible.

La disparition des couleurs, l'uniformisation des intérieurs. Cela fait davantage penser à une clinique qu'à une maison.

In additon to Valko's comeback, Inflop should compensate us with 500 Deepspace Wishes & 100k Diamonds - for all the stress they've caused us.

Andando en Rednote y Twitter, apoyando, me percate de algo muy preocupante..

Podrían devolvernos a Valko pero con aspecto diferente.. 😭
Así que por favor, pongan en los comentarios de no cambiar su aspecto físico 🙏🏻

[☆Nova☆ @NovaStarAurora]

The first ever protocore Mc gets was Yellow. It was the modified protocore from "Onychinus."
Maybe it was bought from Valkos collection bc they were supposedly trying to resurrect the Aeonwyrm, so they needed a powerful modified protocore.
There's a Crescent Moon 🌙 in the pattern. I know it's not special given we have sun and moons but don't you think it's a little perfect? Maybe this one was one of Valkos?
(All speculation, I have to completely read through the mains story and try to remember everything that happens from beginning to "end")

Dear Editorial Team,

I hope this email finds you well. I am [Your Name] and a member of the #BringBackValko movement, and I’m reaching out regarding the Valko cancellation story you covered recently. We wanted to share an important update: our official petition to bring Valko back as a love interest has now surpassed 200,000 signatures. We have also reached over 1.5m posts on X advocating for his return. The movement continues to grow rapidly, with fans around the world organizing petitions, online protests, and peaceful actions to show how much this character means to the community. Despite the initial backlash that led to his cancellation, a large portion of the global and Chinese player base is actively fighting to see him reinstated. We believe this ongoing effort and the current petition numbers reflect the strength and dedication of the fanbase. We would greatly appreciate it if you could consider mentioning or updating your coverage with the latest petition numbers and the continued fan push for Valko’s return. This story is still very much alive in the community, and we’d love to see it highlighted again.

Thank you again for your previous coverage it really helped bring attention to the situation. Please let me know if you need any additional information, screenshots of the petition, or quotes from fans. Best regards,

Dear Editorial Team,

I hope you're doing well. I’m reaching out with a story that has gained significant traction in the Love and Deepspace community. In late June, developer Papergames (or Infold Games) announced Valko, a new love interest for the popular otome gacha game Love and Deepspace. Following intense backlash (particularly from Chinese players) based on malicious baseless rumours that wen't viral and got out of hand, the studio fully cancelled Valko’s development and stated they would not be adding any new love interests in the future. In response, global fans launched petitions calling for Valko’s reinstatement and to advocate for the years of hard work the developers have poured into the creation of this warm and lovable character. One of the main petitions has now surpassed 200,000 signatures and continues to grow. Over 1.5m posts on X have been calling for his return. Fans have also organized online protests and peaceful actions to show their support for the character. This situation has created a notable divide between regions and sparked ongoing discussion about player expectations, communication, and live-service game decisions. We believe this story, including the scale of the petition and the community’s continued efforts would be of interest to your readers. I’ve included the petition link below for reference. Would you be open to covering or mentioning this update? I’m happy to provide more details, quotes from supporters, or any additional information you might need. Thank you for your time.
