Let’s discuss the following possibilities (Rafayel girlies should read this too):
1. If LADS really has to remain silent for 30 days, that means we probably won’t receive any news about Valko until around July 29. We can start flooding Infold with our dissatisfaction in early August. Until then, we should simply keep telling them how much we are waiting for Valko’s return and how much we love him.
2. In that case, Rafayel’s Myth banner may indeed be shifted forward by one week and start sometime after July 17.
Please do not attack Rafayel girlies over this. Do not insult them. Let’s treat every love interest’s fandom with respect.
Explain that the situation regarding Valko should become clearer by the end of Rafayel’s banner, and it would be EXTREMELY HELPFUL if they postponed spending money until the end of the banner. They can use their regular pulls however they wish.
If someone refuses, that is their choice. Do not insult them for it. Respect every decision they make. Rafayel’s fandom has always faced a lot of hostility, so they generally understand what that feels like and are more likely to sympathize with our situation.
3. Rafayel’s Myth banner will probably run until around August 3. By then, we should receive information about Valko’s return, provided there is any.
Zayne’s birthday events will begin on August 31, and there was also supposed to be another multi-banner during the summer — the first multi-banner featuring Valko. Therefore, there is a strong possibility that, if Valko does have a new release date, it will be sometime after August 3.

Dear @Love_Deepspace Team,
I am writing only on my own behalf. I do not represent the entire community or claim that every player shares my opinion. These are simply my personal reflections after spending weeks following discussions across X, Discord, Weibo and Xiaohongshu while trying to understand why this situation affected me so deeply. This is not a demand, a complaint, or an attempt to tell you how to make your game. It is simply an honest attempt to explain why I believe this situation is no longer only about Valko. It is about trust.
People often assume Love and Deepspace succeeded because of attractive male characters. I don't believe that. If that were enough, I could have chosen hundreds of other games. I stayed because your game offered consistency, worldbuilding, patience, and long-term storytelling. Every chapter, Memory, event, and hidden reference felt like another carefully placed piece of a much larger puzzle. Nothing felt random. It felt planned. That planning inspired trust. I believed every unanswered question would eventually have an answer and every character had a purpose. I wasn't simply collecting cards—I was investing my trust in your vision, and that trust became one of the reasons I kept supporting the game.
Love and Deepspace always felt like more than a gacha game. I understand that revenue is one of the most important goals of any business. But revenue is the result of something. For me, Love and Deepspace earned that support by making me feel it offered more than entertainment or another opportunity to spend money. It gave me a world I wanted to believe in, and that belief made supporting your work feel worthwhile rather than transactional.
Valko is important to me not because he is another Love Interest but because he represents your original vision. For years, the game suggested a carefully planned world through its storytelling, symbolism, stellacrum colors, battle arenas, and countless details. Valko felt like the missing piece that completed that vision. When his release was cancelled only days before launch, I didn't simply lose excitement for one character. I lost confidence that the vision I had trusted for such a long time would remain intact, and that uncertainty was far more painful than the loss of a single banner.
Ironically, trust is one of Love and Deepspace's central themes. The game teaches players to build relationships, believe in promises, and rely on others. When trust becomes part of the experience, losing it affects players differently than in most games. I don't know why the decision regarding Valko was made, and I won't pretend I do. This isn't about assigning blame. It's about consequences. When players no longer know whether years of planning can change overnight, uncertainty naturally replaces confidence, and rebuilding that confidence becomes much harder than preserving it.
If Valko ever returns, I sincerely hope he returns exactly as your team originally created him. Please don't redesign him into a compromise. Please don't remove the qualities that made him unique. The character many of us fell in love with was your creation, not ours. We trusted your writers, artists, designers, and voice actors because we believed in the story they wanted to tell. Please trust them too.
If I had completely lost faith in your studio, I wouldn't be writing this. I would have quietly left. The reason I am still here is because I believe the people who built the world I fell in love with are still there. Please don't abandon your original vision. Please don't let fear become stronger than creativity. Love and Deepspace taught me that trust is built slowly but can be damaged in moments. I sincerely hope one day I'll be able to experience Valko exactly as your team originally imagined him, because I don't want a rewritten story. I fell in love with yours.
With respect,
SerenaSolstice

This is why I’m choosing to not log in.
Once Valko is back as an official LI (NOT as an NPC) then I will log in every single day, I will gladly spend my money on my boys because I spend for ALL of them.

So it seems Valko returning depends A LOT on whether his removal affects revenue or not.
If there was ever a time to guard your wallets, please, it is now. For Rafy’s 4th Myth, if Raf Mains can delay their spending by at least a week please do so 🥹 as long as the revenue graph doesn’t spike, we have a really good chance of allowing the creative team to argue for Valko’s return!
As it is, Valko is Rafayel’s pair. Just like Sylus and Xavier or Zayne and Caleb🙏🏼

Хедканон.
Валко тот самый тип парней, который заедет за тобой, чтобы забрать на свидание. В добавок, если во время прогулки твои ноги устанут от каблуков, он будет держать тебя одной рукой, пока во второй несёт твои туфли.

another day, another Valko global trending, at this point we are hitting 750k posts for Valko for the last 2 days, we are relentless! keep posting with #ValkoIsLoved#BringValkoBack & demand infold for Valko's return! both global & CN girlies are working tirelessly & we appreciate all the efforts!
remember to take a step back if its get overwhelming, stay hydrated.
real talk that even if they would decide with finality that Valko wouldn't come home, atleast we fought to the very end. people will always remember Valko, his traces are everywhere here & he won't be deleted entirely.
for now just keep fighting & keep voicing for Valko, i'm sure they are hearing us, they just don't want to address anything yet.
