@Polina_wayg_20 Every single day is another reminder what we have lost, ehhhh. Is it too much to ask for Valko's fluffy tail? #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValuable #BringBackValko

This post is all about Valko's fluffy wolf tail🐺💚✨️ #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValued #Valkois6thLI #ValkoIsInnocent #BringValkoBack

I don't know, but while others are arguing heatedly, I want to send you a Valko that wiggles his butt, lol #BringBackValko #ValkoIsInnocent #ValkoIsLoved

@SignoreFCR I've never interacted with LADS fandom (until Valko's cancellation) and I was surprised about Rafayel's situation. He's such a diva, c'mon. He literally was the only reason I started playing LADS. I don't understand ppl who hate him... I don't main him, but I still adore him.

As a Rafayel main, I never felt the need to publicly defend him. I've seen a ton of bullshit directed at him in my time in the fandom, but I knew Raf would be fine. The only ones who aren't are his haters and sick mains. But that's what the ban is for.

What's the point of playing a game made by a company that doesn't respect their players? I thought I would go back to playing even if Valko wasn't released, but I'm not so sure now. No matter how much I love Sylus and Caleb, LADS is not the same game I fell in love with anymore.

@xavsuki I think we're still doing great especially after over 2 weeks, but yeah, I agree. We should stick to 2~3 hashtags. I think the most used are: #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValuable #BringBackValko and they were trending a lot during the whole boycott.

there’s a new valko hashtag every day and then people complain he’s not trending anymore like yeah i wonder why

@Anna1553528 I was worried about it too, but then I saw a post we're 6th globally and I checked the US a few hours ago and we were 20th. We're good, but whenever I like a post about new Aventurine, 10 more pop out and I have to like Valko's posts to fix it🥀 #ValkoIsValuable #BringBackValko

For those worried about not being able to see our movement on twt, we're still doing fine. It's now split into two articles LET'S KEEP PUSHING!! #ValkoIsValuable #ValkoIsLoved #ValkolsThe6thLi #BringValkoBack #Valko

@enkayart I would buy it even if it costs 10k dias. @Love_Deepspace stop pissing me off and #BringBackValko already🫩🥀 I miss my beloved wolfie💔 #ValkoIsLoved

I need to buy the towel for him... #WeLoveValko #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsThe6thLI #ValkoIsValued #BringValkoBack

If they change Valko's appearance and cover his forehead, I'll jump idc. My ultimate husband material is perfect the way he is. #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValuable #BringBackValko

@urfavluvrposter I was thinking the same but then I saw a tweet we're 6th globally and 20th in the US soooo I think we're not bad. especially after over 2 weeks🫡 #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValuable #BringBackValko

also what happened to our boycott?? are we just not doing it anymore? girlies who still are, INTERACT WITH THIS TWEET! LETS RISE UP AND BRING VALKO HOME! #valko #savevalko #valkoisloved #valkoisinnocent

@wolfayel wow, i'm surprised we're still trending even after 2 weeks😭😭 #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValuable #BringBackValko

CURRENTLY NUMBER 24 ON GLOBAL TRENDING!! Let’s make it higher yeah? 🐺🩷 #ValkoIsValuable #ValkoIsLoved #WeLoveValko

As a business owner myself in the anime and video game industry and someone who has worked with multiple companies in said industry, moreso than revenue itself, customer retention and new customer acquisition are arguably the most important numbers that indiciate sustainability and growth of an IP or company. It is extremely concerning to see that the amount of downloads for Love and Deepspace has gone from 50,000 or so at the time of Valko's announcement to under 20,000, even as low as 5,000 downloads a day. following his cancellation. Keep in mind these numbers are from the CN side, not even including global's numbers, which for some countries, the app isn't even in Top 100 or 200 or even ranking anymore. Looking at the CN download data alone, that is almost a 90% decline in new downloads percentage, which is a huge warning regarding the game's player base and the game's sustainability. In order for a live service gacha game to sustain and continue growth, they MUST find new ways to innovate and gain new players. This would have been possible with Valko as he is a new character that could attract customers who were previously not interested in the game to then compel them to download and try it out. It is especially important to note that releasing a new in-game character would be easy to garner audience adjacent players, aka, female players. However, following the statement of no more new characters ever, it is going to be very difficult for the game to attract new customers with the remaining five characters. Why you ask? Well, if the current characters had not attracted new customers previously, what would they need to do to then attract more players? I think that if Love and Deepspace chooses to not release Valko, the only way they can attract new customers is by doing collaborations with other IPs, such as Genshin Impact, Final Fantasy, Overwatch, Fortnite, etc. However, the player base is extremely different and not always female oriented, hence why I mentioned the importance of audience adjacent female players above, so even doing collaborations will be a significant challenge for this game, especially with the current audience reception regarding the game's communication and reputation. If they don't do new collaborations with other IPs, then they will have to push more for content creator marketing with large Vtubers or streamers, but that alone would not be enough to raise the game back to its previous numbers in the long run. Another alternative will be to do more risque content, but seeing as China has strong censorship rules following their stick figure marketing campaigns for "Lingering Lust," even that will be difficult to push out more of that similar content. Also, they would want to avoid over saturating those types of risque content because it would feel stale after the same type of content is redone over and over. Offering more in-game content, aside from a new character, could also possibly attract customers. However, they would have to really think about data optimization in this case because the game is simply far too large on phones. I personally think that having a console or PC version would be the easiest next step to get more customers to sign up. If Papergames is comfortable with the current player base number and does not want to grow further, then continuing as is would be fine without Valko. But I doubt that is what they hope to achieve. I hope they can figure out the current situation they're in and take the risk, re-release Valko, and see how much that will change in terms of revenue and new player acquisition. However, the decision ultimately lies with them. #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValuable

@YukinoKarasu95 Sylus, Valko and Caleb are soooo cute🥺🥺 #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValuable #BringBackValko

Их должно быть шесть. Вы слышите? Так было задумано. Так было создано. Было, есть и будет! Шесть любовных интересов. Именно такой была история с самого начала. И именно такой она должна остаться. #Valkols6thLI #ValkolsLoved #BringValkoBack

@ilikebread_alot @Kaiiihoshigaki @furyu_puri @Love_Deepspace really? I was thinking about whether they scratched valko from this collab or he wasn't there from the beginning. im just curious so I would be grateful if you could share your thoughts about it🙏

@Kaiiihoshigaki @furyu_puri @Love_Deepspace this was pre-planned before valko! let's not do this here ok

⋱♡ 「#恋と深空」× フリュー コラボ開催決定 ♡⋰ 2026年7月20日(月)より、全国約500台の『Bloomit』にて「恋と深空」のプリコラボがスタート📸 カレと一緒に撮影している気分になれる、限定撮りおろしボイスナレーションも💗 コラボ期間：7/20(月)~8/31(月) #Bloomit #恋と深空プリ #フリュー

@havensnowcrow no company stays silent for over 2 weeks WITHOUT any reason. I refuse to believe they don't care about public opinion, bc they wouldn't cancel him in the first place if that was the case.we have to be patient (im already dead inside) #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValuable #BringBackValko

@sirenslies doesn't radiant fantasia count as a banner? #BringBackValko

They won’t drag this past August especially since this is the first time the game has been bannerless they’re losing from every side and will probably do something before then

one day you're gonna wake up to an official Valko is coming back post #manifesting

@efearka There were thousands of ways to make this "coming soon" sign and they chose the closest placement to what we had in the game before Valko. They are either messing up with us or Valko is gonna join this collab later. Nothing between. #ValkoIsLoved #BringBackValko #ValkoIsValuable

Just shitting all over other people’s feelings for the sake of money. Hmm.

Hmm, so you are staying silent. And now there are more and more companies that do not respect LADS players? What kind of people do you have to be to launch a collaboration at a time like this? Women are crying? Feeling betrayed? Feeling unheard? Who cares, let’s launch a collaboration. And yes, you canceled your own events, but for some reason this one was left untouched. Hmm, well done. #Valkois6thLI #ValkoIsLoved #BringBackValko #valko #loveanddeepspace @Love_Deepspace

@paradizefounder I think it's actually better that they don't release any banners during this whole mess. It would only cause more drama. On the other hand, their silence is weird too. We can just wait ig🥲 but we can't be silent about Valko!! #ValkoIsLoved #ValkoIsValuable

they really need to get their shit together by the end of this month if not I fear for the future of this game
