Oh yeah, it has to be me with 400 followers and 2 days of active posting and not Al - who apologized and advocated to not use their google translate political CN tag.
#PaperGamesRuinsCNGaming has been trending for the last 4-5 days since the announcement of the 5 banner.
The billboard has been up several days.
Al did her push of her twts day of and before it was taken down.
First of all, lots of people are blaming Al as well, but LFV didn't explicitly tell the original reason and people are just guessing.
It's probably not even her fault. But if you're going to implicate me you're going to have to implicate her as well. But you don't, why?
The reason you're targeting me is because now you see me now as a JJP extremist radical leader. Now you have to silence me to regain control of your boycott "narrative".
Yeah, keep drawing arbitrary boundaries and slander people you dislike - that's our method huh.
Didn't know I was so special, tons of people were naturally mad after the 5 banner. They flooded the Ruins tags after. I only posted what people ACTUALLY FELT. You wanted to tell them they can't feel that way.
I saw the whole thing go down and that was why I made my pinned post. Al posted a screenshot of the JJP plan and clearly stated, "Ready to retaliate?"
Then made a CTA to actively report all the tags. That's why you see screenshots of people reporting the tag to LADS VIP.
It was absolutely disgusting, seeing Valkyries push to turn on each other. Al pushed a potentially political CN tag, which she deleted and apologized.
Again here is an example of JJP and radicals being the scapegoat of the ACTIONS of YOUR boycott . And now you see me as some leader pushing them, when the reality was - PPG has been buying time for weeks. They did reruns and pushed back, changing their schedule. The 5 banner was everyone was anticipating and what PPG was scared of releasing. It should have been the easiest Valkyrie unite scenario in the fucking world.
INSTEAD you guys wanted to play god and CONTROL the tags and CONTROL the justified rage after the banner 5 debut.
There's a reason why me and other Boycotters posted about thinking about leaving the boycott after that incident, a divided Boycott is cooked - that's why my pinned post rallied for unity.
Calling that organic consumer dissatisfaction as a "smear campaign" "bots" I'm a "bad actor looking for clout"
You guys lost the plot and then claim that I and the voiced you suppressed (and intentionally pushed out to keep control of the narrative) did. How happy PPG must be to see you guys actively suppress your own voices at the time they feared the most.
Do you think you're some big dog or something? XHS gets 100k comments in an hour. We get 5k at most. Al has 4k fllwers, do you really think we're on the same level as the Sony boycott? Do you really think if the everyone you label a bot and radical just left tomorrow you could do it alone?
Imagine how crazy it would be to report a SonyDisc tag because you disagree with it.
You guys should be absorbing everyone you can get.
You guys are giving PPG every reason to keep ignoring you.
Dear Deepspace Hunters,
Recently, the development team has received a great deal of feedback and many suggestions regarding the game. We have also heard your concerns about the team's capacity to consistently deliver high-quality content in the future.
We would therefore like to take this opportunity to respond with the care that your trust and expectations deserve.
From the very beginning, we have hoped to make Love and Deepspace a romantic world that continues to grow alongside every Deepspace Hunter—a world filled with more diverse experiences and lasting companionship. This hope has guided us throughout the game's development and remains at the heart of everything we are working toward.
The development of Valko and his related content is part of the long-term content plan for Love and Deepspace. However, we recognize that the way information about Valko was presented did not give sufficient consideration to your expectations and concerns regarding the game's future content plans. As a result, many hunters have been left with questions and worries since Valko's initial announcement. We sincerely apologize for any frustration and unease this has caused.
We have also heard your concerns about whether future content can continue to be delivered consistently without compromising on quality.
Please be assured that the Love and Deepspace development team has continued to grow since the game's launch. The Main Story chapters you have been waiting for are currently in active development. The stories of Farspace Colonel Caleb and Onychinus Leader Sylus will continue, and the new series of Solar-Slot Memories will also be arriving soon. The development team will continue to deliver richer game experiences and high-quality content on a consistent basis.
We also understand that these concerns are not simply about the pace of updates. They come from how deeply you care about Love and Deepspace and the love interests who have been by your side throughout this journey. It is because you cherish every moment you have shared with them that you hope this companionship will continue for many years to come.
For this reason, we want to make this commitment to you: the stories, companionship, and future of every love interest will always remain an essential part of the long-term plans for Love and Deepspace. This will not change for any reason.
Enclosed with this letter are Deepspace Wish ×10 and Empyrean Wish ×10. Please log in to the game before July 23 to claim them from your in-game mailbox.
Once again, we would like to thank every Deepspace Hunter for the encouragement, honest feedback, and support you have given us throughout this journey. We know that it is your unwavering love and support that give meaning to everything we do and guide us forward.
In the future, the development team will keep working hard to bring you more high-quality content and a better game experience worthy of your support.
We hope you have a wonderful day in Linkon City—and many more wonderful days to come.
Love and Deepspace Development Team
Why AI’s anti-CN tag is malicious:
#1 saying “Americans didn’t start the anti-China narrative” admits the narrative exists
#2 It deflects blame from Americans before anyone even process what the tag represents
#3 dropping this right during a state visit and made it trend directly forces the issue into the spotlight for CN state officials
#4 When those officials traces the origin of the tag and open her profile... and viola! sees CN girl CN social platform usernames everywhere
girl that’s not a tag, thats like inviting CN authorities with a list of lives to ruin -- just because they don't agree with you, in a game.
your community always say radicals take things too far because its just a game. yet this tag literally could ruin lives. because of a game
imo this is worse than anything the CDGs have done.
Far past hate and cyberbullying.
Meanwhile she and her community keep smearing the CN government to shield Infold -- claiming “CN gov caused Infold to delete Valko and stay quiet” on repeat.
----
For those calling the tag an “innocent mistake”:
Are you fine with CN girlies having their lives ruined over AI's "innocent mistake of a tag"?
If yes because you think "actions have consequences" — that's cruel, but hats off honestly, you are entitled to that opinion.
But apply it to her too.
----
Meanwhile these following 2 tags existed since July and focus on PPG and keeps the criticism within the industry:
“Paper game ruins CN gaming”
“Paper game ruins CN cultural export”
yet the “Paper game shames China govt” only exists because AI and her youtube friends kept pinning Valko’s deletion and delayed return on the government to protect PPG.
You can argue their posts and videos placing blame on CN government is "to rightfully educate people" but that does put an extreme negative light on China as a country. at least it did for me for a while.
----
Finally, for the CN girlies supporting AI and also post that CN government policies and censorship is what caused Valko's deletion. I have image below for you...
你们在X大肆说“友商利用中国政府和特殊政策环境才造成敖尹被下架”并且支持骂中共的人还说她很“飒”,真的不怕吗?
我不懂,也许翻墙就是重新做人,如果真不怕,我真的很佩服。自由的平台大家就自由点吧。
@JaneDeepspace Это конечно да, но в прошлый раз с таким подходом в другой их игре, чувака просто вернули как НПС с редкими ивентами и гробом как декор, грубо говоря, и его фанок все ещё буллят ☠️
Неужели мирные реально верят в камбэк Валко, ничего не делая? (Не играть и не донатить хорошо конечно, билборды класс, но какой результат? Вроде никакой?) Я долго пытаюсь понять источник уверенности. Может они не знают, что сделали с другим отмененным персонажем PPG?
Я могу ошибаться, но.
Думаю, что @Alpackaaa придумала свой # для очернения движения "радикальных" бойкотирующих.
Тех людей, кто осуждает решения Инфолд.
Этого стоило ожидать от защитника ппг. Но то, насколько это было глупо с её стороны, до сих пор не укладывается в голове.
Меня всё сильнее раздражает аргумент, что нынешнее давление каким-то образом нанесёт «непоправимый ущерб» не только PaperGames, но вообще китайским играм.
Почему мы вообще принимаем это как установленный факт?
PaperGames уже не впервые оказывается внутри очень тяжёлых политических и национальных конфликтов.
В 2019 году вокруг Shining Nikki возник скандал на фоне протестов в Гонконге и закона о запрете масок: в игре изменили аксессуар-маску так, что он перестал закрывать лицо, после чего игроки начали использовать политические лозунги, а часть таких формулировок стала фильтроваться. Это была совершенно настоящая политическая история вокруг игры.
В 2020 году Shining Nikki оказался в огромном китайско-корейском конфликте вокруг ханбока. PaperGames выпустила заявление о «национальном достоинстве», а затем вообще закрыла корейский сервер спустя примерно неделю после запуска. Это был не маленький фандомный спор, а международный культурный конфликт, который дошёл до полного ухода игры с рынка.
В 2021 году PaperGames разорвала сотрудничество с английским актёром озвучки Mr Love: Queen’s Choice после его публичного заявления «Taiwan is a country». Ещё два актёра после этого ушли в знак солидарности. Это был прямой международный политический скандал вокруг Тайваня.
И совсем недавно уже LADS оказался в скандале вокруг A-0731: компания публично отвечала, меняла контент и признавала проблему с чувствительностью команды к исторически болезненной теме.
И что?
PaperGames не исчезла. Китайский геймдев не исчез. Мир не рухнул.
Поэтому когда мне сейчас говорят, что злые женщины с хэштегами внезапно нанесут катастрофический ущерб всей игровой индустрии, я хочу спросить: с чего вообще такой вывод?
Это не установленный факт. Это страх. Это предположение о том, что может произойти.
Да, есть действительно хуёвые конкретные примеры. Тег Al для меня полный пиздец, и я его защищать не собираюсь. Если конкретный пост или конкретный тег действительно превращает историю Валко в политический реквизит, давайте критиковать именно его.
Но #PaperGamesRuinsCNGaming сам по себе не означает нападки на страну. Это обвинение конкретной компании в том, что её решения подрывают доверие части игроков к китайским играм. Можно считать этот тезис преувеличенным. Можно считать тег плохой стратегией. Но делать из всех его пользователей неосознанных, манипулируемых людей, которые якобы не понимают, что делают, я не согласна.
И самое главное: мы не можем сами модерировать тысячи взрослых людей и удерживать этот конфликт голыми руками.
Напряжение уже существует. Люди злятся. И чем дольше Infold молчит, тем сильнее эта злость будет искать новые выходы. Некоторые будут разумными. Некоторые спорными. Некоторые откровенно ебанутыми.
Но кризис-менеджмент PaperGames не является работой игроков.
Если компания позволила температуре подняться до такой степени, что ситуация начала расползаться во все стороны, основная ответственность за управление этим кризисом всё ещё лежит на компании. Отдельные люди отвечают за свои слова и свои действия. Но мы не обязаны коллективно спасать PaperGames от последствий её собственной коммуникационной политики.
Бойкот не обязан быть удобным.
Если кто-то считает, что единственный эффективный инструмент это падение доходов, пожалуйста, действуйте так. Если кто-то хочет позитивные теги, пушьте позитивные теги. Если конкретный человек написал опасную или ебанутую хуйню, разбирайте конкретного человека.
Но хватит превращать весь бойкот в систему надзора, где взрослые женщины должны получать разрешение на то, насколько им можно злиться и какими словами им можно критиковать компанию.
если есть мизерный шанс что ППГ не отказались от Валко я буду невероятно рада, но я не могу в это верить видя как его файлы исчезают, его игрушки раздают без него, его контент вырезают, о нем молчат, и его темы отдают другим пероснажам и не могу стоят на месте в ожидании
Can I say something?
Every damned day since this raid started, I'm seeing the so-called "peaceful" faction is getting crazier and crazier.
Yall out here with foam on your mouth pulling one destructive move after another.
For a "moderate", "peaceful" group of people, yall sure love to start fight everywhere, fight against us, fight against other fandom, even against people who only want common ground.
and for what?
All because the "radical" faction yall oh so wish to antagonize is doing their absolute best to spark this dying boycott up again, people who try to pin the responsibility Papergames is avoiding with all their might.
Yall have lost too far into the sauce that yall no longer able to distinguish who's your people and who you're supposed to fight against. Some of you are now openly supporting Papergames and even attempt prove your loyalty to them like some... Dogs.
This is insane, yall are not boycotters, yall are Infold's loyalists with a superioty complex that try to sabotage this boycott through coercive control.
#LADs #LoveandDeepSpace #Valko
@piperina191955 We can ignore them by simply not stopping exposing stuff, and continuing creating content for our own community. Though the company will ruin the last hopes of those fake Valko girls anyway, if they never release Valko in game, high chance with how PPG moves now and before, lol
