Hello, this is Kim Jihoon, CEO at Project Moon.
I am canceling the nerf plans for Heishou Pack - Mao Branch Adept Faust.
I apologize for making the exact same mistake and the exact same manner of cancellation I made back during the case with The Ring Yi Sang.
I understand that, even if it may have been necessary to make adjustments to an Identity that has already been released, making an adjustment this quick and early would have been more understandable had we been consistently making quick adjustments to other aspects of the game like E.G.O Gifts and such as well.
However, now I see how making such quick and rash adjustments to an Identity that has already been released, while making only slow adjustments to other balancing aspects of the game such as the Mirror Dungeon or E.G.O Gifts, can come across as disgraceful to our players.
As I have shared earlier, given that I was unable to prevent my own incompetence prior to release, it would have been a better approach to make indirect adjustments to the game instead of adjusting the Identity itself for the sake of maintaining trust between us as developers and the players, and I very much regret not being able to think of this ahead of time.
It is with great shame to constantly go back on my word that was already shared via our notices.
However, I greatly regret that the adjustments made for Red Sheet Sinclair must remain in place, as it would affect every Rupture Identity and E.G.O that are to be released going forward. I would appreciate your understanding regarding this matter.
Once again, I apologize for going back on my word that I shared during the The Ring Yi Sang incident.
I have forgotten why I promised to never touch an already-released Identity; I am sorry for breaking the trust to our players and thereby disappointing them.
I must have foolishly fallen into a lapse in judgment.
I’m sorry.
Going forward, unless it is due to a glitch or a bug, I will not directly nerf an Identity. Even if an Identity is released due to a terrible mistake on our end, I will not make immediate adjustments as I did today; instead, I will first gather our players’ opinions via user surveys and livestreams, and prioritize listening to our players ahead of time.
Please note that any compensation or extraction resource returns for Heishou Pack - Mao Branch Adept Faust will be canceled alongside the nerf.
As for Red Sheet Sinclair, as the adjustments will remain in place, please understand that its upgrades will still be reset and have its upgrade resources returned to your Inboxes.
Due to the several issues that have occurred today, and with the adjustments regarding Red Sheet Sinclair, we will be sharing a compensation of 1300 Lunacy and one 3★ Guarantee Decaextraction Ticket.
We will be sharing a more proper notice once these changes have been properly organized.
Once again, I sincerely apologize.
