DRAMA TIME: LOVE AND DEEPSPACE
the world, 7 of cups, page of swords, 10 of wands, ace of pentacles, ace of wands
Infold and paper games wish to move on from the backlash and the controversy stirred by the recent events. They want to close this chapter as soon as possible and start making profit again. They are looking at many different paths they can take and solutions to their problems but it looks like neither of them is good enough. They have reached a stalemate, a moment when they don't know which direction they should go. I feel every offer they receive, every idea, every "cup" they can take and follow though comes with a sacrifice of something else, something they don't want. They want to have a cake and eat it too. So they have this decision paralysis and I think it will stay that way until they have no other choice but make up their minds. But for right now they are still hopeful to find a perfect solution to their problems. They do feel a bit desperate since I feel they have a "every idea is a good idea," even the dumbest, most unhinged one may result in fixing the drama they found themselves in. At the company it is a huge brainstorm time to find a way to clean up this mess and go back to how things were at the beginning. That is how to continue producing an entertaining game while also making profit and making the players happy. They are trying to balance these three things, but like I said - they can't find the right answer to that yet.
Will Valko come back as a love interest?
7 of swords, knight of pentacles, 10 of swords
I'd lean towards the yes, he will, but with a twist that some fans won't like. They will feel betrayed, deceived by Infold. I think they will make some small changes in his appearance and remove some details about him that people refused to accept. Small enough for some players to notice and be upset about it as this won't feel like Valko we saw in the trailers, the Valko we were promised. Still I see it may take a while before they release him. The knight of pentacles is a slow moving card, the knight is highly attentive to details. This time the developers will make sure everything is perfect and everyone is happy, but with the first card I do see some unhappy voices after his second introduction but the last card tells me after all it is not that bad. I see players will divide into two groups the ones who will be upset and the ones who will be happy to have Valko even after those changes because it will be better than nothing.
Will any of the servers close?
Ace of pentacles(r), nine of swords(r), knight of wands
I see there is a chance that it won't be permanent. I see it may happen only for a short period of time. Infold wants to keep all of its servers open for the players and even here I seen that short closing of one of them will result in a huge loss of resources for the company that would put it in a difficult situation. That will be the reason to open it again as forcing Infold to close a server completely will cost people jobs and that is something they cannot do. So since closing it for a small amount of time will cause loss of income for the company and its employees they will fight to keep them all open.
