@lawiecikmanga No because some people are suspicious lol went to someone’s page and they were posting Valko hate when the trailers dropped. Thought they were being helpful 😭
so who’s gonna write the college au where you’re in a group with them for a class project? both of them incredibly studious and wanting to pass the assignment, but you’re instead trying to figure out how to recreate the Eiffel Tower in a two-hour study room 👁️👄👁️
🚨 REMINDER 🚨
july 17th is the estimated date for rafayel’s new myth! part of the boycott is to hit infold where it hurts: their wallets. we’re asking not to pull on the banner. educate your fellow players. avoid pulling! money talks after all!

At this point, after everything I'm seeing about this, I think all of ya'll need to calm down and give Infold the two week ticker they gave themselves. This is a legal battle THEY need to face and us trying to add other entities into the party isn't gonna do shit
I came across this YouTube video by Kalvin Winters being shared on Twitter that is 39 minutes long and explains the whole Love and Deepspace and Valko situation from start to present.
It's extremely informative and also provides insight into what exactly is happening and why it happened in the first place.
Everything boils down to pretty much these two options, written by the content creator:
Best Case Scenario: Issue is blown over after a few months and Valko is quietly delayed and released
Worst Case Scenario: Valko is gone forever and LADS is scrubbing everything and pretending nothing ever happened
I hope that the former is the path Papergames/Infold chooses as that will be a beautiful way to end this madness and prove to the world that the character was never intended to be portrayed in any negative light within the game.
However, in order to do so, they will have to clear a lot of legalities with the government and potential defamation lawsuits in order to lay the foundation before they can bring Valko back.
The decision ultimately falls to Papergames themselves, not the CCP, not the press, not the fans.
At the moment for me personally, it's hard to play the game and look past the controversy, and Valko's absence from the game can be felt all over.
I think that many people feel the same way, and the way they consume the game will never be the same again since we KNOW that there once was supposed to be a 6th character to tie the story together.
And if Valko does not return and the other 5 characters absorb his intended story, then with every new story that is released from here on out, there will forever be a question of "was this plot point supposed to be Valko's or not?"
I just hope Papergames/Infold makes the right decision.
despite how disappointing this past week has been, i genuinely don't want to see LADS die. it's not perfect, but it's such a special and unique and beautiful little game and i will forever be glad i downloaded it on a whim 10 months ago. i hope it survives this :( #valkowasframed
Honestly. If the CCP is so focused on Chinese representation, they need to stop focusing on Infold/PPG and go after the people that started rumors and acted vile. That’s the real negative representation of China.

‼️VALKO NATION‼️
Please keep in mind we may not be getting an announcement because the devs have more pressing matters on their minds; they received death threats.
The safety of the employees and their families is likely priority.
Please be considerate of their safety and if you can, please spread this!

Global does need to understand that CN views are still very different from us. And it's not easy to push back against gov/law. I'm not defending them but it's better to understand they probably CAN'T say anything because of being on watch. But we shouldn't quit no matter what!
From the moment they doubled back on their statement that was suspicious. I’ve been saying from the beginning this could be the outcome. And while people have plenty of reason to be upset at infold it is not helpful to act like they could have seriously prevented this once
As upset as I am this is not just a case of ignoring global players. Does their communication suck? Yes. Do they have major issues? Yes. But more and more it’s looking like CCP involvement and censorship. Infold has no control
