The Blade & Soul Vietnam and Thailand servers are shutting down, with very short notice! 😨

I wonder if all these players may migrate to the Taiwan or Western servers.

Many live service games and MMOs are getting their plugs pulled due to unsustainable P2W business models and mismanagement.

Well, I'm not from that region but seeing how badly the game is managed in the West region, I can see why it has shut it down. I speculate the Western servers are likely on the chopping block. Ever since my team and I got back 2 months ago, the game is still rapidly declining in quality as they can't even do weekly maintenance without delays or breaking something.

I've accepted a long time ago that I may not be able to see my boys in the game soon due to the bad shape of it. It's a game that is lost in every aspect. Only shutting it down and rebuilding it someday, hopefully under new management or publisher, can save it from the mess it has become. It's better off dead, honestly. The game is ancient and extremely exploitable due to how badly built it is.

Since everything is hackable and P2W with massive rng involved (slot machine, basically), you can see why this game is not worth to play for many. NCSoft only bother to keep the Korean version clean from hacks and updated accordingly but not the other regions, despite people supporting the game by paying into it. They don't have the decency to do basic up keeping on their product despite always pushing the cash shop.

Many NSFW artists getting suspended on Twatter recently. Some of my favorite JP artists are talking about it. :pepeHang:
The JP side of Twitter is the only reason I still even keep an account on that site.
I saw another artist, although Western, get suspended yesterday. These are big accounts, too. I wonder why so many sudden suspensions of NSFW artists this week.

I barely even use the awful site anymore but it's still used a lot in Japan and the content coming from there is a lot more pleasant to look at. Not to mention I can only ever find people posting cute 1:1 dolls from Japan. Although it's a hellish site, I wouldn't have found my next doll's maker, who is also from Japan, if I didn't keep an account. I love my doll but it really sucks ass to have this hobby as a Westerner. :pepeSpin: whew

I have been trying to get people to buy Hiyokogumi dolls (first pic) since they specialize in cute life size male dolls and are one of the only options for one as of now. I have been advertising them for months. But it seems it's harder to sell wholesome dolls. I hope my new doll can get them more business in the West after I start taking pictures of him and posting. This doll will be a lot easier to move around than my current 27kg doll.
I find that many people are curious about dolls but will not personally buy one or can't due to costs and laws. My Hiyokogumi was 60,000 yen, which I think is really good for a 130cm custom doll! On top of this, male dolls do not sell anywhere near as much as the females.

Fabric life size dolls are more popular in Japan for sure. I absolutely fell in love with the fabric dolls available from Japanese makers, specially the Sakura Dolls. (second pic) Sakura Dolls only has female dolls, though.

I also really like their oppai dolls! Very unique and charming to me! I unfortunately do not have room for a doll with boobas this big lol :booba:
One boob alone will take up half my bed size. Fabric dolls are great because even with boobs this big, they are still lighter than any TPE or silicone doll. The 3rd doll is only 10kg!

I have received footsies progress of my new lifesize Elegos doll! I love his cute paws! 😭 I'm really happy that the doll maker was able to honor my request for the paws and has even done the white gradient for them.

Looks like the fabric is a lot lighter than I the original swatch. I may end up with a peachy Elegos instead of warm brown lol. Might also be lighting. Looking forward to seeing the face reveal sometime in the upcoming weeks.

I'm sure he will still be super cute and the other swatch color I was given for his skin was a bit too grey, so I went with this warmer color. The maker, Hiyokogumi dolls, is from Japan and only offered lighter skin tones. They had to search for something a little darker for Elegos. They have been a joy to work with and very nice. This Elegos will be 130cm, so I will be able to put the clothes of my current lifesize doll on him.

I have now been tempted into getting my first female life size doll! Doll Forever has released a Wednesday Adams doll called "Friday", obviously to avoid any troubles. kek

She's so cute! I love her cartoony face and she's only 100cm and 26lbs (12kg). Means I can actually move her around. I have a lot of expenses for my current doll, including getting him Guava Doll's 1:1 BJD head, but I might pick her up sometime next year or by the end of this year.
Yes, she is a sex doll obviously. But I want her because I just like Wednesday since I was a kid.

Just a little less grumpy in this one! That is a conniving look of revenge!

"I will absolutely not wear those rabbit ears, you pest... Where the hell has my dragon tail gone?!"

The proud Demon King's annoyance can be felt through some of the pictures... :uohhh_bratty:
