DONT RATE DOWN AND LOG INTO YOUR GAME

I REPEAT
THIS ISN'T ABOUT VALKO ANYMORE

WE NEED TO SHOW OFFICIALS THAT WE WANT THIS GAME

我写了大概三个多小时，因为文化差异和语言的问题，很多国外玩家不理解这件事在中国有多严重，也不清楚valko和政治立场是怎么扯上关系的，总而言之我梳理了整个事情的发展过程，有什么遗漏的麻烦中国玩家替我补充，海外玩家不理解友好提出。

[n | a little ia @thewindknewher]

“we just want valko back” WHO IS WE? i want the missing content i was promised, regular updates of the main story and combat and better ways to farm diamonds??? why are you guys soooo content with begging for the absolute minimum 😭

[𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑙𝑎𝑟𝑖 ☾ @rithalari]

did you only start maining your lIs yesterday? how is it that a character who hasn't even been released yet has blinded you so badly that you're now hating on your own lis? weren't they good enough for you before?

[Jay @JayShan0506]

I'm a CN player. I'm a Caleb stan. And I'm done being polite about this.

You don't get to call an entire player base racist while knowing absolutely nothing about what actually happened. So sit down and read.

CN players didn't wake up one morning and decide to cancel a character because of his skin color. We spent 500+ days waiting for main story updates that never came. We watched the company fail to deliver content for five existing characters while announcing a sixth — breaking an explicit promise of "no new love interests." In 2025, Love and Deepspace ranked #1 on China's largest consumer complaint platform with 3,406 cases about unequal resource distribution. This rage was years in the making. Valko was the last straw, not the cause.

Then we found a drug experimentation record inside the game numbered 0731. If that means nothing to you, that's your ignorance, not our problem. Unit 731 was a Japanese military program that conducted live human experiments — vivisections, biological warfare, forced infections — on thousands of Chinese civilians and POWs during WWII. The in-game record included the name 严颂, a phonetic match to Japanese researchers from the unit, within a full narrative of injection protocols, endurance testing, and forced mental control. Players reported this through customer service when it first launched. It was ignored. The company later called it "a random placeholder number." Six state media systems, a national think tank, and a prosecutor's office publicly called that a lie.

Now let me tell you why you had no idea about any of this.

The company deliberately gutted every trace of Chinese identity from your version of the game. Chinese New Year's Eve was deleted from the script. The Lantern Festival greeting was removed across every language version — Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean — while the holiday imagery was kept, proving it was a deliberate directive, not a translation choice. Mid-Autumn Festival was renamed to a fictional name. Christmas and Halloween? Kept their real names. Chinese text was manually redrawn out of cutscene animations. Chinese food was erased from date scenes — four date menus, zero Chinese dishes, in a game made by a Chinese company. A calligraphy illustration had its Chinese characters scrubbed for international release. A government-backed collaboration promoting Chinese sports culture at the Asian Winter Games was posted three times domestically and zero times on any international channel.

You were handed a product that was systematically stripped of its origin. And now you have the audacity to tell us our concerns don't matter — while consuming a game built on Chinese players' money and Chinese creators' labor.

The apology letter you received was also different from ours. Your version said "we weren't ready to introduce Valko." Our version acknowledged broken promises, failed content delivery, and systemic trust collapse. Same company, same decision, two completely different explanations — designed so that you'd blame us instead of them. And it worked. Here you are, calling us racist, while the company that lied to both of us watches from the sidelines.

And let me be absolutely clear about where things stand right now. This is no longer a player dispute. This is no longer about your feelings or ours. The Chinese government has taken notice. As of today, state media outlets at every level — from central party organs to provincial papers, from the national women's federation to the legal system — have published critical coverage demanding accountability. A prosecutor's office has issued a formal legal characterization of the game's content as violating regulations on public morality and national sentiment. State media are calling for the company to undergo "fundamental reform." Whether this company can survive what comes next is an open question.

Your anger in our comment sections changes nothing. The character was not cancelled because of tweets or Reddit threads. It was cancelled because institutional power stepped in. And that same institutional power is still escalating, not retreating. You are screaming at the wrong people about a situation you fundamentally do not control and do not understand.

So no. We are not "xenophobic" for refusing to let a company monetize our historical trauma. We are not throwing "toddler tantrums" for demanding accountability after 500 days of broken promises. And we are certainly not going to apologize for defending a position that our own government, our own judiciary, and our own national media have now publicly endorsed.

You want to be angry? Be angry at the company that decided you didn't deserve the truth.

Or don't. But understand this: your ignorance was manufactured, your outrage was engineered, and the people you're defending don't even respect you enough to tell you the same story they told us.

One last thing. Before you reply, ask yourself whether you can dispute a single fact in this post — not with feelings, not with "well I don't care about 731," not with "China is racist" — but with a single verifiable fact that proves anything I said is wrong. If you can't, then you don't have a counterargument. You have a reaction. And reactions don't change reality.

Every claim above is backed by public data, official media coverage, in-game evidence, and documented company behavior. If you choose to ignore all of it because it's easier to blame Chinese players than to confront what this company did to all of us, that's your choice. But don't mistake your comfort for the truth.

[clarissa🧂 @risarisa11]

why is the petition only about bringing the character back and nothing else?? they didn't include other game issues we are having for years..at least the open letter the cn side was more rational and point the flaws of ppg's management.

[Este ⁷ Sylusversary 🐦‍⬛ ♥️ @Myuniverse7ven]

Who is going to tell velcro fans that dragging the other 5 lis WONT bring their dog back 🤷🏻‍♀️

Also since yall "boycotting" follow your OWN advices:
Delete yours accs and uninstalled the app. Thats what u said right?

Yall dont want the other 5 lis so why you still playing?

all the people acting so hurt and dramatic over that mid guy as if u knew anything about him except him being a soup of all the existing lis. like y'all would rather have a slopfest disguised as a shiny new toy instead of wanting more content for ur own main li lmao

[被ban的嘴替版⸆⸉ @Augustiiiinea]

So happy the final verdict dropped tday. Our hard work paid off! Honestly, I don't give a damn abt those coping and seething losers. I only care about real, normal players, not those freeloaders leaching off CN players. Crying here won't change a thing bc we already won☺️😙

[n | a little ia @thewindknewher]

mind you they could’ve introduced a new li if they had first
- updated the game regularly (combat, ms, etc)
- QoL updates as players asked for
- missing content catch up
- a li that isn’t pushed by the ceo because he wanted one who looks like him
- communicated with player base

[mad-dog @simp4liferz]

just a reminder what the content disparity looks like for sylus (and caleb)

[potatolus in julylus/syniversary🚗 @potatosylus]

Guys pls don't stop boycotting Infold‼️

This is all nothing but sweet talk to save their revenue from going down. They saw how everyone is actually serious about the boycott, and gave 20 pulls to try shutting everyone up after all the mistreatment they gave us for 2+ years.

[Adelina @adelina_gai]

This is not just about whether people like or dislike the Valko.
What many so-called “radical” CN players are actually discussing is a deeper issue:
What is really being discussed is this: when a game company profits from emotional intimacy, does it have a responsibility toward the relationships it creates?

When a game profits from long-term emotional attachment, intimacy, daily companionship, and players’ reluctance to leave, does it have any responsibility toward the relationships it created?

#LoveandDeepspace is not a one-time purchase game. It sells a continuously managed intimate relationship between players and their chosen LI.

So adding a new official LI is not just “adding content.” It changes the relationship structure players have been paying for and emotionally investing in. That is why “if you don’t like him, just don’t pull” misses the point.

Even the KR players are cooking infold like CN bcz they have brains but only the global server ppl are busy protecting, defending and feetlicking the billion dollar company and enjoying all the slop they gave

[≽^•⩊•^≼ @nytfact]

This is exactly why we and Chinese players didn't want a 6th Li.
