Taco Duchess 🌮👑

So Incel Edison @elonmusk apparently doesn't want you to block accounts... This is the same asshole that forces himself and other garbage people onto your Feed. I'll be over here blocking this trash like my name is Hakeem Olajuwon. Fuck off forever, Space Karen. 🖕

@watermelon Oh, eat shit. Literally no one is "turning" on any of the other boys. We're just calling out the blatant hypocrisy. I personally hate Raf and Caleb but I'm not going to yuck some other girl's yum. And I certainly wouldn't want them cancelled.

In under a week, a new pixel guy has majority of this fandom turning on 5 LIs especially Caleb and throwing xenophobic, racist, classist, misogynistic slurs at real women — myself included. I’m not even angry. I’m grateful. You all finally dropped the act. IDC if this ends up with me only having 20 mutuals, immediate hard block if you participate in that shit.

@HypocD Right?! I have screenshots because receipts are forever.

Girl, stop having an episode and get help. "Turning on the 5 LIs" and it's just calling out your false moral hypocrisy. "Throwing slurs at real women" I saw CN players calling foreign players the N-word, monkeys, cheap whores, wished death on their families, etc. Get a grip.

@masterintopiece @suzinevol Pretty sure Caleb came out with all of that on his debut too. Keep in mind also that this new character has to compete with very developed characters with high affinities and has to catch up. I got Caleb the day he came out and he's still WELL below the affinity of my other guys.

@TacoDuchess @suzinevol 一个新角色上线就拥有了别人等了将近两年都没有的配套四星卡和新剧情的全部倾斜 抢走了原本属于其他五个人的产能 现在公司（被迫）校正了错误 你们又跳出来说是原来的玩家抢走你们的东西 打着美好的旗号做的全是自私的事呢

그리고 지금 Valko 돌아오라고 하는거 회사 쳐 망하라고 하는말인거 아시고 하시는거 맞죠..? 여성 인권 문제로 대두된 캐릭터를 오토메 게임에 다시 들이는 행위는 다시 이슈가 되어 회사의 목을 조르겠죠 그냥 Valko 영상 저장해서 Ai 챗봇 만들어서 서사 쌓으시는게 정신건강에 더 낫지않을지

@JayShan0506 @MomoAdachiGurl Not when she's pointing out facts. All I've seen are derogatory insults for the crime of not being Chinese, and your government persecutes Uyghurs within your own borders, sooooo 🤷🏽‍♀️

@MomoAdachiGurl Dismissing an entire nation's concerns with 'we already know China is racist' is, by definition, the exact prejudice you claim to be calling out.

The massive CN player protest against Love and Deepspace is NOT about Valko being ugly. Here's what's actually happening — and why every global player should pay attention. A thread from a CN server player. 🧵⬇️ #LoveAndDeepspace #LnDS #Valko #InfoldGames

@JayShan0506 @Kai6255829908 Uh, no. I have a LOT of screenshots of horrible things the CN girls said about the global girls. According to those, we are all poor, low class pigs to you. And that's the NICEST things I've read. It's clear you all think we're shit and our opinion doesn't matter.

Pointing out that the company deliberately withheld information from you is not calling you ignorant — it's calling the company dishonest. And the complaints you're labeling as 'racism' were about a human experimentation record numbered after a real war crime unit, not about a character's skin color. If you actually understand the main issue like you claim, you already know this.

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.

@Kai6255829908 @JayShan0506

Trying to downplay the racism that has come from the CN players by essentially calling global players ignorant isn’t the way to go about it. A lot of us understand the main issue but also understand that there were better ways to make everyone happy. All of this is unfair to everyone. I think what really baffles me most is yall used Valko as the target of your hate train when CN players could’ve given the valid complaints and boycotted for those reasons, but instead it was all pointed at Valko as well as global players because we “don’t spend as much” why would we want to spend as much money on a game that never listens to us? Valko was never the problem it has always been Infold. In owning a game you will never make everyone happy enough that’s just a fact, having said that you can do things in a way that is respectful to all of your players. That’s what us global players have been saying for the most part. I understand the deeper things going on in china, I get that this is deeper than just one character but everything that’s happening isn’t globals fault either we all need to unite cause it is unfair to ALL lads players.

@JayShan0506 @llux4_ This is the dumbest take I've read. I guess it's cool for Caleb to drug and kidnap his sister and for Sylus for hold MC captive and force himself on her to resonate, but not a dude who comes up to a balcony? Get the entire fuck out of here.

I hear you, and I'm going to answer every point because you clearly put thought into this and deserve a real response. First — Valko was not removed because players didn't like his design. Valko's own promotional content contained a scene where he breaks into a woman's home at night while she lives alone, and says 'what's wrong with inviting the wolf in?' A Chinese prosecutor's office formally characterized this as romanticizing illegal entry into a private residence — a crime carrying up to three years imprisonment under Chinese law. The national women's federation's official newspaper called it a direct threat to women's safety and demanded investigation and legal punishment. The legal system's official newspaper said it crossed a legal red line. These are not player opinions — these are institutional determinations with legal authority. The character wasn't cancelled because CN players threw a tantrum. He was cancelled because his own content was formally classified as promoting illegal behavior and endangering women's safety. This is a legal compliance issue, not an aesthetic preference. On top of that, the 731 reference in the game's human experimentation record — which had been reported to customer service by multiple players long before this crisis and was ignored — was identified by state media and a prosecutor's office as content that harms national sentiment and violates public morality regulations. The company's response of 'it's a random number' was publicly rejected by six state media systems and a national think tank. Second — you're right that Valko himself had nothing to do with 731. Nobody claimed he did. These are two separate issues that exploded at the same time because the Valko controversy triggered a community-wide audit of the entire game. The company had years to quietly fix the 731 content. Players told them about it. They chose to leave it in. Third — you ask why CN players didn't fight to keep Valko. Because for most CN players, the issue was never about one character. It was about a company that went 500 days without updating the main story, couldn't deliver for five existing characters, broke an explicit promise of no new love interests, and then added a sixth whose own promotional material romanticized breaking into a woman's home. Demanding that he stay would have meant accepting both the broken resource model and content that legal authorities had already flagged as problematic. Fourth — the CN players who liked Valko. You're right that they were caught in the crossfire, and that isn't fair. But the people who mistreated them are individuals, not a movement. Just as I won't judge all global players by the ones calling us racist, I'd ask you not to judge all CN players by the ones who attacked Valko fans. Fifth — the developers. Yes, real people worked on him. Their work was wasted. That's a tragedy, and the blame falls entirely on the executives who approved a character launch with content that legal authorities would later classify as promoting illegal behavior. Not on the players who spent six days warning them while they responded with 'look at his shiny eyes.' Sixth — localization. What happened with Love and Deepspace is not normal localization. Renaming Chinese New Year's Eve while keeping Christmas. Erasing Chinese text from animations and re-drawing entire scenes to remove Chinese characters. Removing Chinese food from every date menu — four menus, zero Chinese dishes, in a game made by a Chinese company. Scrubbing calligraphy from character art. Posting a government collaboration promoting Chinese sports culture three times domestically and zero times internationally. A provincial party newspaper — the same level as a state governor's official press — just published an editorial calling this 'diluting Chinese elements and blurring cultural identity.' Normal localization adapts content for local audiences. This systematically erased the game's origin. There is a difference. Seventh — you say global players are 40% of revenue and not irrelevant. You're right. Which is exactly why the company owed you the same honesty it owed us — and gave you a different story instead. The English apology said 'we weren't ready to introduce Valko.' The Chinese apology acknowledged broken promises, failed content delivery, and systemic trust collapse. Same decision, two different explanations, designed so you'd blame us instead of them. That's not respect. That's manipulation. Last — you say this should be company versus players, not CN versus global. I agree completely. But the path to unity isn't asking CN players to defend content that our own legal system has classified as problematic. It's both sides recognizing that the company engineered this conflict — by telling us different stories, stripping your version of cultural context, and making sure you'd never have the information needed to understand our concerns. You want us to help you push back? We already are. Every demand we've made — for accountability, for transparency, for better content standards — benefits you too. The company that lied to us is the same company that lied to you. Start there.

@rosymihi02 @John3x4a @lfxy_ LOL

@John3x4a @lfxy_ 731 was in Xavier's WU and it was released in April, if they had to make noise they would have done it that time only, not now Also in that sense, Rafayel should too get cancelled x.com/i/status/20724…

很明显那些蠢货cn玩家开始在这里散布谣言了，她们提及历史和女性主义，试图合理化她们对🐺的厌恶，又把话题引到公司，说一切都是叠纸的错，我们应该让公司倒闭。都是狗屁！看看她们怎么骂我的？她们害怕🐺会获得更多人气，超过另外五位男主，这才是她们引起这一切的真实原因！ #BRINGVALKOBACK #Valko

@John3x4a @lfxy_ Wow, you're a piece of shit.

@lfxy_ 遇到啥事只会找外国人了 我想问问你是中国人还是外国人 崇洋媚外胳膊肘往外拐的死玩意 真给你脸了 有本事去国内发啊 骂不死你个熊货😂妈的死蠢货人家pv里都发了那些畜生行为 也就你们这一群没脑子的喜欢 真以为自己多牛逼 我告诉你我骂的就是你这样天天只会狂吠的

@John3x4a @lfxy_ But you're okay with Caleb drugging and kidnapping his sister? Or Sylus taking MC captive and forcing himself on her to resonate? Bitch, get out of here with your stupidity. Also the 731 reference is from a Xavier storyline from April. Stop spreading lies.

@lfxy_ 净他妈放屁呢熊蠢货 上过义务教育没 知道731啥意思吧 我看你自己更是个屁啥都不知道满嘴喷屎 人家pv都发了私闯民宅动手动脚 那你以后被强奸了就和强奸犯结婚吧 谁在搬弄是非自己清楚小傻逼😂

The male loneliness epidemic isn't severe enough.

@xinghooi .....Why wasn't it banned in APRIL when the story came out under Xavier???

i cannot emphasize just how infamous unit 731 is in our history. media that even so mentions its name get BANNED IMMEDIATELY in china. i ask everyone who’s read this to at least respect this.

coming back on this account to let international lads fandom know that chinese players’ boycotting of the 6th li is not simply because we “don’t like him” or “he’s too much.” not only did his storyline receive heavy criticism due to its implications of assault & noncon,

@xinghooi Here to tell you that all of this was an organized hate and misinformation campaign. and has all but been debunked. Also that 731 reference was under Xavier story from April. Google is free.

But the fOrEiGn gIrLs are the ones "attacking" being "disrespectful" 🙄

The CN players started a smear campaign against Infold up to a scale that their government had to intervene, putting the lads at risk of EOS. Now the CN players are anxious. What did they expect would happen?

LOL, this dumb bitch. Every REAL Sylus main posts things with their whole chest and not behind a burner account like a spineless coward before blocking. @nytfact

@suzinevol Infold has a lot of issues but taking away Valko was not the answer.

@TacoDuchess Infold가 Valko를 저품질의 서비스 제공의 발판으로 삼으려 했는데 그 부분에 대해선 화가 나지 않고 Valko를 거부하는 사람에게만 드시나요? 당신은 고품질의 경험을 위해 큰 돈을 쓰셨는데 저품질로 바꾼데에 대한 불만은 없으신가요?

@suzinevol Valko didn't copy anything. He's completely different. I might as well say Valko copied Rafayel based on the pic below... That is absolutely stupid.

@TacoDuchess 그렇군요 첫날 출시부터 플레이를 했고 Sylus도 마음에 드신것같네요. Valko는 Sylus의 대부분의 것을 카피캣 해갔는데 그 점에 대한 거부감은 없으셨나요? VIP면 큰 돈이 지출되었을것 같네요.

Love it when these stupid CN girlies with illegal accounts get on X and spew lies then follow it up with insults before blocking you like the spineless cowards they are. At what point in the trailer did Valko do ANYTHING said in this post? @LingXiu87119

@suzinevol I am a Day 1 player. And a 2 year VIP member. I have Rafayel and Caleb cards I don't care for.

@TacoDuchess ? 혹시 게임 처음하시나요? 6인 가챠가되면 뽑기싫어도 뽑아야해요
