REMEMBER OUR CONVERSATION ABOUT THIS. DONT LET THEM GET YOU
Xbox possibly canceling Blade and shutting down Arkane, IOI announcing that an unnamed partner ended their deal for a new game.
What, exactly, are folks supposed to be excited about when it comes to Xbox, anyway? COD? Gears or War (now with jumping)?
Six months ago I wouldâve guessed theyâd pull out and go full third party, now if they shut down the whole division in six months I guess I wouldnât be too surprised.

A Letter to All Players Dear Miss Hunters, We sincerely apologize for reaching out once again. Over the past several days, our team has been closely following your conversations and feedback across all platforms. For the issues that have surfaced since the announcement of Version 6.0âand the frustration these have caused our communityâwe want to clearly state: we are sorry. As weâve expressed before, our vision for Love and Deepspace has always been to build a world that grows alongside youâone that offers a richer, deeper sense of companionship over time. As various issues have arisen in recent days, we have moved quickly to make the necessary adjustments. After reflecting on recent events, we recognize that we moved forward with the introduction of Valko before we were truly ready. In doing so, we let down the players who have supported us from the start, and we also fell short of delivering the experience that players anticipating Valko deserved. After extensive internal discussions, we have decided to make the following changes:
- We have decided to cancel both the launch and any further development of the new love interest. We also commit that no additional love interests will be introduced in future content plans.
- All other in-game systems and features originally scheduled for Version 6.0âincluding Home 2.0 and AR Photoboothâas well as the limited-time Selectable 5-Star Memory Rate-Up Event, will proceed as planned. The outfits, photo poses and scenes, and the Nighthush Box (the second-anniversary 4-Star Memory Selection Crate) originally planned as rewards for the Hunt in Linkon event will instead be sent to all players for free via in-game mail after the version update.
- Going forward, the entire team will focus on further developing the stories and long-term companionship experiences of our five existing love interests, while ensuring a stable pace of Main Story production and updates. Rafayelâs new Solar-Slot Memories and Companion will be revealed in July. Farspace Colonel Caleb and Onychinus Leader Sylus will also return in their Main Story branches in September and November, respectively. By participating in the relevant events, players will be able to obtain the corresponding 5-Star Main Story Branch Memories for free. We will continue to devote all our care and effort to bringing you richer stories and game experiences.
- Beginning today and continuing for 30 days, players who log in each day will receive one Deepspace Wish via in-game mail. Each mail will remain claimable for three days, for a total of 30 Deepspace Wishes. We hope this can offer some compensation for the disappointment and disruption caused by these adjustments.
To our community: once again, we apologize. Because of our actions, the joy you should have found in Linkon City became a source of distress, and the feelings you hold most dear were hurt. We are deeply sorry for the hurt and disappointment we have caused. Love and Deepspace has always been about sharing love with you and protecting the love we all hold dear. That purpose has never wavered. Every step forward taken by the love interests and Linkon Cityâfrom its beginnings to where it stands todayâhas been shaped by your feedback, your passion, and your trust. It is your presence, care, and companionship that give this world its meaning, and us the strength and direction to move forward. Over the past two and a half years, weâve shared moments of joy and gratitude, as well as challenges and difficult times. Through every late night devoted to making this world better, it has been the moments youâve shared in Linkon Cityâand the love and passion behind themâthat have kept us going. We hope to continue walking this road with you, building a world where love can take root, grow, and bloom.
Going forward, we will work harder, listen more carefully, and do our utmost to honor the trust you have placed in us. We will stay focused on delivering the experience you deserveâone filled with love where every moment in Linkon City can once again become a joyful and treasured memory. Linkon City will always be here for you. Thank youâfor your trust, your honest feedback and encouragement, and for being with us every step of the way. Your companionship has helped light the path ahead, and your faith in us has given meaning to every effort we make. Thank you for your love throughout this journey. It gives us the courage to keep moving forward. We hope to repay that love with even more and even better content in the days to come. #LADSValkoCanceled
Edit (additional context from @daphaknee ):
Holy shit the small puddle of spit on her hand after you cover his mouth, Iâve seen pornos that were less pornographic than that trailer, glad the font choices werenât all that exciting otherwise Iâd probably end up playing that shit
the whole forest knows youâre my emergency ration is fucking crazy
games do feel really pornographic lately but in a totally inexplicable way. my head is still spinning about the last level of Ready or Not being a scenario where the homo-militant enemy troops call you a vessel, talking about how you need to be filled, while a guy doing a jigsaw voice on the radio is expressing the puppy play dynamic he has with the player character. i lost my mind listening to bro saying shit like âEfficiency is devotion in disguise⌠and oh, you are devout, arenât you?â âSatisfied? We prefer the word conditioned.â âChain of custody? No, these are chains of obedience. And how you wear them with such pride.â
ITâS NOT EVEN A FUCKING SEX GAME!!!
The horny is, I fear, on main
direct line from those police psychology classes where dave grossman says after you kill someone you have the best sex of your life to the videogames of the 2020s where sexual impulse and high impact gun violence are more intertwined than ever
yo props to the girlies for out-gooning the male gacha demographic
This is turning me into the Joker to read each dispatch from the front lines of this, a game you want incredibly bad to be good but very much isnât. I worked through a bunch of tabs today and your Ready or Not review is very good:
Feels like it does that thing where thereâs enough new and interesting ideas floating around that it now is able to dramatically disappoint and piss the player off when itâs revealed to be nothing more than this fantasy where you can kill without thought or remorse, having given yourself to your cult leader.
I keep thinking of way better directions they couldâve gone with this that wouldâve given you a good solid kickass SWAT game with some narrative meat on the bone, and not have been nihilistic and death-culty.
Itâs genuinely one of the worst told stories in videogame history. Every single aspect of that game, besides fucking shooting people of course, is a completely embarrassing disaster for the developers.
it reminds me a lot of how people kept playing destiny for âgunfeelâ
1000%
making a game called âBready or Notâ which is a bodycam multiplayer game about running a bakery idk
Weâll see what happens in two days.
But also the ps6 isnât gonna have a disc drive lol.
What happens in two days?
