Man, that whole debacle is why I'm glad I don't really interact with the gacha community. A very obviously absurdly broken unit, Maost, was going to get nerfed extremely slightly to go from "Insanely busted" to "just busted" and out come the death threats, dev harassment, and more to the point it got reversed within an hour or two. It wasn't even like they were going to make her useless, just go from "Able to go full speed unstoppable burst turn 1" to "Unstoppable burst turn 2", that was it.
I mean, Project Moon enables this behavior by deliberately being spineless, this is far from the first time that they backed down, and until they stop, this is going to be what happens. I'm just going to accept that so long as the gachabrains don't care about story content, its fine if the gameplay is a mess

Someone was quite literally threatening to bomb a hhpp no? Considering pm is much more of a smaller company I think it's fair for them to reverse this to stop the death threats even if it's spineless

Agreed. On one hand, yes I don't like the fact they back down so easily and readily but on the other... gacha fanatics are insane and I 100% believe they would cause harm to the employees because of something as simple as a minor balance change. I still remember the BS PM had to deal with because of the artwork of Ishmael in a wetsuit.

Plus even if Mao Faust is insanely busted and did deserve to be nerf, I think she's not as much of a detriment to the game as keeping Talisman unchanged given the fact rupture was balanced around his and that's why it has such large issues with count, so gutting him is overall beneficial to the game in the long run

While I am sympathetic to the danger of a bomb threat, showing that this sort of reaction will work does only mean that people have no incentive to stop doing it. A bomb threat is a clear intimidation tactic, and its not the first time people have made threats like this, so clearly caving to them isn't stopping people from making them. This is where you get legal support or mitigate the issue, PM's caving to people's demands and threats isn't an isolated thing, so, while I am sympathetic to how a bomb threat is more serious.
I just think that caving to threats is enabling behavior, and they had plenty of opportunity since this has become a recurring issue to plan around people acting out. Small company or not, I am sure they have enough resources to at least hold their ground.

If I remember correctly the reason of this drama is caused cuz the ceo promised not nerfing a character after they just got released and ask the players for feed back, this has been said after the Ring Yi sang incident. But I am so absolutely against death threads and review bombing the game this is not normal. And about CEO holding their ground, ji Hoon (the ceo) is not really good game CEO. The Mori artists drama and such dramas happened but even tho they were right he could never hold his ground nor explein things as CEO I hope he gets better at it cuz at this point I am thinking if the Korean cry babies are the ceo or jihoon
