not to dip my toe in to the drama but i’m gonna put money down that leaker account will stay deactivated just long enough for valko to release and then they’ll be back. lol they’re enough of a hater to not want to give the news away or avoid it and look out of the loop but they love the clout 🤷‍♀️

i think the argument that ppg is sticking to their decision to cancel valko just to “save face” is predicated on the idea that the cancellation itself was a decision based on actual sound business strategy that just didn’t work out and not a panic move made because the whole game was in jeopardy. i could believe there were a couple of holdouts in upper management who weren’t sold on the idea of adding a new LI this late in the game bc they were worried about the fandom backlash, but clearly they weren’t the majority bc valko’s development went ahead anyway. they probably felt pretty vindicated when the backlash was exactly as they expected. but if we’re talking about saving face, what about the face of the management and creatives who wanted to launch this character? the years of dev time and likely millions of dollars spent on him? don’t you think they would be just as invested in getting valko released and proving the faith they have in their product was well placed? the secondary backlash and major hit to the revenue has to be pretty fucking vindicating too lmao. we can’t know all the behind the scenes drama, but a lot of signs point to the decision to cancel valko being made under duress. there are also signs of intentional sabotage from competitors. we don’t have to view this as only through the lens of the relationship between players and the company. ppg got bullied by business rivals into the state they’re in and if we think they’ll make the decision that best protects their reputation, it’ll be the one that says they won’t be pushed around by bigger competitors. #bringvalkoback #全世界都在等敖尹 #novalkonomoney

low key feel like they’re doing these typos intentionally as engagement bait 😒

pure zayne main? no, ture zayne main

the concept of lads’s writing team taking ANY inspiration from dbh and wanting to collab with fuckass david cage 😩

noooo they discontinued the chinese dictionary app i’ve literally been using since college 😭 it was an Old Internet app from before everything was jam packed with ads 😭😭😭

that’s a big oof 😬😬😬

i saw a take today that annoyed me. it felt reductive and misinformed. it wasn’t mean spirited or insulting, just kinda dumb. i COULD have replied to it, qrted it, jumbotronned them to talk shit, acted like THEY were the one stirring up drama and picking a fight, even though it very much would have been ME drawing attention to them and inciting others to get pissed off about a mildly annoying tweet out of context. but i didn’t do that. i blocked them and moved on with my day. feels like this app forgets that’s a fucking option sometimes.

my current prediction is sylus’s branch and the radiant brilliance rerun during this multi, xav’s myth with heartstring notes rerun next, yes cat caretaker rerun after and then valko debut right before the anniversary. if they’re smart (ha!), they’ll unveil an absolutely jampacked 7.0 update with a banger ot6 multibanner to keep all but the most hardcore solo stans happy and as a big fat apology for the preceding 6 months of bullshit. 🤞🤞🤞
