Chasing Night teaser
The real hunting ground's up ahead. Do you dare follow?
2. The Tameless Game trailer
Trespassing on someone else's hunting ground. That's not very nice.
This is what you left behind?
Tch. You honestly thought I wouldn't settle the score?
(on the phone:) Hello? Family reunion? Pass. Tell auntie, cous, and grandma I said hi. [Note: in the Chinese version, he uses words referring to the women of his father's side of the family.] I'm entertaining a ... friend.
(overlaying a fight scene with Wanderers:) Doesn't matter who gets sent. Now come at me!
You think you can be a wolf just by wearing our skin?
Too bad your scent gave you away.
I don't like having weaknesses but I'm not afraid of them.
This is my territory. Chasing me around is basically asking for trouble.
[SOME BATTLE LINES: See #6 below for all]
Isn't it a little too late to be scared at this point?
I like prey that fights tooth and nail 'til the end, but ... there's nowhere left to run.
Welcome to my private research facility.
In nature, seekers of the same prey are enemies.
A deal? Why should I accept it?
(regarding a ring:) Proof of my sincerity. Wear it and everyone who pledges their loyalty to me will follow you as well. Nifty, right?
Once you step out, you're the protagonist of the story.
You and I have to fight for our kin until death itself comes for us. Only an enemy ... will stay with you until the end.
(cuts to:) Are you insane? Look, I was trying to help—
Your scent.
You're already dancing with a wolf. What's more dangerous than that?
Cheap shots don't prove a damn thing.
It's time for a test.
3. Foregone Fall trailer
Hm. Bang!
Who are you talking to? Take me in for the night. Trying to muzzle me? It's a little too late.
Are you nervous or something?
It's late. Of course I'm gonna play around with you.
What's the difference between me carrying you and you walking in?
It's what I do for you. Since you're so eager to learn and apply newfound knowledge, I'll be your test subject.
If you really wanna learn about the Wolves' secrets— (cuts to:)
Fine, let me just get my scent all over you.
(getting scritches:) Huh?
We were probably in a "you're mine" sorta dynamic?
There. That's better.
It's too late; your body has my scent. Now the whole forest knows you're my emergency ration.
What the [expletive]?
Easy there!
And I didn't think you were a hunter with a knack for walking into traps.
And here's a counterattack.
(describing the Player's scent:) It's like the wilderness: earth, open savannas, and the wind. Other times it's a stream, a mountain, a pretty moonrise. And it can often remind me of a burnt pancake on a stove. Just kidding.
That's how raising wolves works! Being softhearted, even for a second, you'd be in their net.
When I like someone, I make a move.
Biologically speaking, we came from the same primordial biomolecular soup and we evolved under the same conditions. We're not that different.
And what's so bad about wolves being at the door? One peek is enough for him to open the doors for you.
[SNIPPETS FROM 5-STAR MEMORIES:]
The first lesson of Hunting 101: don't make any noise when moving and breathing.
You saw how the puppers ran me ragged all afternoon. Can you blame me for wanting a breather?
You have eyes. I'm relaxing.
You're late by 30 minutes and 21 seconds.
Human have five senses yet they sense such a narrow world.
What happened to your self discipline? You showed up late and haven't stretched. Did the wolves eat it?
[/END SNIPPETS]
The answer I'm looking for ... it's in you.
The ending doesn't matter. I'm gonna witness it firsthand.
4. A Shattered Quiet clip #1
You think you can be a wolf just by wearing our skin? Hmph. Too bad your scent gave you away.
What a waste.
(after getting shot at:) Hm. Not bad. Prey should struggle if they wanna be entertaining.
5. A Shattered Quiet clip #2
(about the changing seasons:) Which means that day isn't too far off in the future.
Cherish the chance to see the sunset while you still can. It might just be the last one for the planet.
Who knows? You and I have to fight for our kin until death itself comes for us.
Only an enemy will stay with you until the end.
6. Nightprowl Wolflord battle lines
Locking onto our prey. Embrace the fear of being hunted.
No because what the actual fuck was that decision?
You mean to tell me months—if not YEARS—of development.
…and your solution was to throw the ENTIRE SIXTH LOVE INTEREST into the trash?
ARE YOU SERIOUS?
I'm not saying people shouldn't have been angry about the 731 reference. They absolutely had every right to be. Unit 731 is one of the darkest chapters in history and if that reference was made carelessly, then yes, people deserved an apology and an explanation.
But explain to me how Valko became the sacrificial lamb here.
Who exactly does this help?
The people who were hurt by the reference? They still deserve accountability.
The people who were excited for Valko? Congratulations, you just told them to go fuck themselves.
The developers who spent who knows how long creating an entirely new LI? Their work gets deleted overnight.
So what was the goal here?
Because this doesn't feel like taking responsibility. It feels like corporate damage control.
Fix the story.
Rewrite the chapter.
Delete the offending reference.
Delay the release.
Fire whoever thought using 731 and 611 was acceptable if you have to.
But deleting an ENTIRE CHARACTER because of a mistake in ONE PART OF THE GAME is such an absurd overreaction that I genuinely can't wrap my head around it.
I'm just so unbelievably disappointed. because Infold's response was somehow even worse than the original mistake.
We lost a character.
The developers lost their work.
The fandom lost something people had been excited about.
What an absolute fucking waste.
