Love and Deepspace backlash leads to new romance being canceled forever

Infold has canceled the release of the sixth love interest, Valko, in the virtual boyfriend game Love and Deepspace. The decision follows a massive player backlash centered on the character's werewolf nature and historical references.

Coverage from Polygon.com and Siliconera emphasizes that the romance has been canceled forever. According to ixbt.games, the push for cancellation included the use of threats and cow dung by Chinese players.

Other reports from GosuGamers and Yahoo News Malaysia note a divide in the community, with some players reacting strongly in favor of the character while others remained unimpressed. Future developments will depend on how Infold manages the aftermath of the controversy and whether further changes to the game's character release pipeline occur.
