Screw this game. What a terrible hill to die on. Making a pity system and turned HOYOSlopped. Senseis and you had a perfect thing going on and it ran like clockwork. But now the new EA Managing Chief Director who got into NEXON, and the rest of the Board are capitalists freaks, and all of you should burn. I see all the students like a bunch of dumb anime stuff rn. Jeez. Been playing since day 1 but nah this ♥♥♥♥ has to stop.
As per 27/06/2026:
We have received an update regarding the Revolution. The Corporate has once again shows their filthy side.
Instead of being a good company, they decided to move on with the scheduled update on the JP .ver despite Senseis unilateral effort to withhold the terrible change.
Viva La Revolution, for the students, the miracles, and ultimately Kivotos.
KIVOTOS IS FALLING DOWN, FALLING DOWN, FALLING DOWN
E A IS RESPONSIBLE, TIME TO REVOLT!
