Y‘all I don’t usually post something but this situation feels so unfair I feel like I also want to speak up about it.
1: how INCREDIBLY disrespectful to the people who worked on him. Artists, voice actors, storywriters, idea-havers, even department heads and whatever- even the cosplayers who were gonna cos him at the upcoming events.
2: they‘re choosing hate over love. In a romance game. with a story about love, and choosing love.
3: they‘re letting the haters win. they‘re rewarding the bad behaviours, the loud and hateful voices. i am aware of cultural differences and i feel like there is more behind this that led them to do this, like people threatening to report them to the government or whatever. or incredibly bad decision of one person in charge maybe. but hate should win in NO culture!! never!!!!
4: there’s people who love him already and were excited for him (me included). the people who hate on him and led to this development are so incredibly selfish, egoistic, and lack respect. Oh yea you can‘t fathom someone liking a character you dislike? grow up and be better.
5: even if infold rebukes their decision, this is gonna stay as a negative memory in the fandom. it broke trust, it broke hearts and enthusiasm. i dare argue it broke immersion, too, because a lot of us realised they can (and will!) just take a love interest from us because someone told them to.
6: even IF they rebuke it (which i genuinely hope for because I want the work people put in him to be displayed, I want justice for the artists and for his fans) CN girlies are gonna be freaking out about it EVEN MORE because then they went back on their word AGAIN. better to just release him to EU/USA at this point prob. give him to us international fans, even if you‘re not gonna put in further development. i want to meet him!!!
7: i‘ve made this point before but they‘re choosing to listen to hate!! instead of love!!! people are gonna complain either way. it‘s already figured out that it‘s better to just stick to your truth, no?
editing point 8 because i feel like i want to end this on a better note: i hope we as a fandom can keep him alive either way. i hope infold doesn’t keep artistry and hard work from us just because of hate. i hope hope hope we as a fandom can still make headcanons and love him and cherish him. i hope i can actually meet him in the future!
here‘s my headcanon: i think he‘d smell like wet dog when it rains and i feel like he‘d shake his whole body puppy-like after a shower so you‘re soaked as well. yea.
Yea i forgot about 10 more points. Sorry for being so emotional about this but this game has been my emotional comfort space for about a year now and I am angry, sad, and hurt about this development. Also: this is a safe space for the lads girlies and fans! If you want to complain, vent, comment, do it.
Thanks for letting me vent. c:
