may all women free themselves of the shackles holding them down.
@hineskt23@xavsuki its not delusional bc the reaction is to cn govt socials commenting on the game's storyline/promo material for valko, not the cn server reaction. if you think cn server can control their own govt to comment on things, thats even more delusional. infold wouldnt have done anything
Women’s Newspaper Commentary# [Why Is *Love and Deepspace*’s “0731” Defense So Unconvincing?] Women’s Newspaper Comments on the Mobile Game’s 0731 Controversy
The controversy surrounding the mobile game *Love and Deepspace* is still ongoing. In addition to the widely criticized plotline that trivializes the safety of women living alone by using the phrase “inviting the wolf into the house” in a flirtatious context, the decision to set the file number for human drug-trial experiment records as “0731” has sparked even greater public outrage.
In response to the criticism, the explanation given was that it was merely a randomly generated number, just a meaningless placeholder, with no special implication whatsoever.
Such a defense is clearly unconvincing. For every Chinese person, “731” is not an ordinary number. Unit 731 of the Japanese invaders carried out inhumane live human drug experiments and bacteriological experiments in China, committing monstrous crimes against humanity. This is a symbol of blood and tears engraved in the nation’s memory. Anyone with basic historical knowledge, reverence, and conscience would never use such a sensitive number in a storyline involving human drug trials.
Whether a string of numbers carries a “special implication” is not something that can be dismissed lightly with words like “random” or “meaningless.” When the public feels offended, when historical trauma is ignored, and when a fictional plot setting highly overlaps with a historical tragedy, any attempt to whitewash it as a “coincidence” appears self-deceiving, hollow, and powerless.
Games create virtual spaces, but they are not moral vacuums, nor are they places beyond the law. What kind of values a game advocates, what kind of historical perspective it conveys, and what kind of gender views it promotes must all withstand the judgment of public order and good morals, as well as the scrutiny of laws and regulations.
The many problems exposed by *Love and Deepspace* may seem like “minor details,” but they conceal major issues. We hope the relevant authorities will attach great importance to this matter, conduct a timely and thorough investigation, impose penalties in accordance with the law, and restore a clean and healthy environment to the world of gaming.

@hineskt23@xavsuki not getting another LI and blaming cn players instead of the company for not finding a better solution? infold/pg has majorly fumbled the whole situation to cn and global sides so its not like the cn players got what they wanted either 💀
@joxxyVtuber@GamingonPhone its in the case number of the case investigation into human experimentation -- it has now been quietly changed to 0611, a sensitive date
infold full on ignoring 731 in-game issue calling it an "innocent mistake" with then 中国人民妇女报 reporting on both the 731 and the 引狼入室 issue, and instead of addressing those things publicly, choosing to mislead global fans into thinking its all bc of valko. what a company
@GamingonPhone you forget to mention a major reason being
1. 731 being listed in game alongside human experimentation, insensitive given ww2 history
and
2. the chinese dub for ao yin's release mentioning "引狼入室" and the romanticization of stalker behavior....
@GekoGpose@GamingonPhone pancakes are waffles ass argument LMFAO blue checkmark account is reporting that chinese fans are "harassing" the company but dont mention the main reasons why (which i mentioned) theres harrassment, instead choosing to focus on valko as if thats the main issue cn fans have
@Jujutsugaisen@PinkieOizyra@GamingonPhone yes but the case number linked to human experimentation is 0731. the outrage over the game is mostly over this and no new updates to the game for quality of life for the other male characters. blame infold for choosing removing valko as their emergency plan because
@GekoGpose@GamingonPhone yeah well it was enough for national chinese news to report on it as an issue, so as a chinese game youd think that be important for infold to consider 💀
@Mylenart98@GamingonPhone lol im saying the cow dung is not just about the character.... the 731 date was used as a patient number in an in-game file that discusses human experimentation. its not "searching for a reason" when theres an annual mourning day in china for the lives lost due to this tragedy
@Mylenart98@GamingonPhone "inventing things to take the love interest out" maybe open a history book.... human experimentation and biologic warfare amongst other war crimes are "ridiculous" reasons? ur outing ur own ignorance and stupidity 🤣
