[Protest] – Violation of ‘Road Nine’ operating philosophy and demand for official response
Recipient: Smilegate, NX3 GAMES
Title: Request for explanation of violation of 'Road Nine' operating philosophy and call for future response
I am a user who enjoys your MMORPG **'Lord Nine'**.
The '5 operating philosophies' revealed at the 2025 announcement were a promise based on trust with users. However, the recent updates and your company's response directly violate that promise, and are causing serious distrust and backlash throughout the user community.
[Items that are violated among the 5 operating philosophies that your company promised]
Probabilistic Item Stress Relief
→ Despite the announcement that “only one avatar exists for random draws,”
→ With the recent update, the artifact probability draw system was introduced, which added excessive probability content.
Paid experience/cash equipment not sold
→ In reality, whether or not you pay has a significant impact on your combat power and growth rate.
Preserving item value and respecting the economy between users
→ The game balance is collapsing and the trading ecosystem between users is being violated due to random paid items.
💬 Despite the fact that many users have repeatedly pointed this issue out through the official community and customer center, your company has not yet made any official statement.
[Requirements]
Clear and official statement of position on violation of operating philosophy
Provide transparent explanations and fix plans for issue updates (e.g. introduction of artifact probabilities)
Announcement of a plan to maintain practical compensation and future operating philosophy to restore user trust
[Official Warning – Call for Legal Responsibility]
If your company continues to ignore legitimate complaints and questions from users, this may be a violation of the following laws. If we determine that there is no official response, we will take the following actions:
Article 3 of the Act on Fair Labeling and Advertising
→ Prohibition of unfair advertising that misleads consumers
※ After the announcement that “there is only one random item, avatar,” the artifact random draws added may be considered deceptive advertising.
Article 21 of the Act on Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce, etc.
→ Prohibition of acts that cause unfair disadvantages and failure to fulfill notification obligations
※ Silence on user complaints and failure to sufficiently notify important updates may be an abuse of business position and a violation of the duty to notify.
Article 32 of the Act on Promotion of the Game Industry
→ Obligation to protect users' rights and create a fair usage environment
※ Failure to notify about probabilistic content and paid systems may result in legal liability.
[Countermeasures]
File a formal complaint or complaint with the Korea Consumer Agency, Fair Trade Commission, or other relevant organizations.
Review legal procedures, including claims for damages, in cooperation with consumer rights groups and legal advisory agencies.
Launching a press release and protest campaign with the User Community Alliance
I don't want to attack or harm 'Lord Nine'.
However, promises must be kept, and fair and responsible operation is what all users expect.
Your silence may be interpreted as a possible violation of law rather than a choice.
I hope the operating philosophy at the time of the showcase wasn't just a marketing slogan.
We look forward to a sincere explanation and a changed response.
thank you

They say they plan to open funding through Tumblbug.
This time, the main character (player) is the owner of a ramen restaurant.
It's said to be a story about two part-time workers there.
It will be released by Stove in July.
They said they'll be able to demo it at Illustrator this week
For those who like Studio Tabi games, this time too
I recommend it!!!!

#RKMC #마작일번가 #RKMC Streamer Commentary
hello!
This is Stove Crew 1st Generation Jo Hye-bin! 🌝✨
Today I have a really special indie game for you.
I came to introduce you...!
Exactly... 🖤
“For whom is your suffering?”
Emotional pixel art + philosophical message + crazy directing = 🧩
🎮 This is INMOST 🎮 !!
Me again...
Emotional narrative, pixelated emotions, and a slightly philosophical and open-ended game.
I'm the type that really loves...
This is definitely my game!!!!!!!!!
I brought a review because I wanted to ㅎㅎ☺️
📌 If I had to describe Inmost in just one word... it would be ' pain ' .
But we face and accept that pain in various ways.
It unfolds from the perspectives of three characters, making it really immersive!
From now on, let's follow these three people's journey together 🌫️✨
Before that!!
I prepared a video that you can watch lightly! 😎
This is my first video, so there are a lot of shortcomings...
Created purely through editing
Please take it lightly as it is my original creation...♥️
⚠️ This review is written with a focus on the game's structural understanding and emotions.
Please note that this may contain some emotional spoilers!
📌 What kind of game is Inmost?
In one sentence,
“If my suffering were for someone else, would I be able to endure it?”
It's an emotional narrative game that asks this question to the player.
The game is played out from the different perspectives of three characters—a man, a knight, and a girl .
Their stories don't seem connected at first, but
As it progresses into the second half, it interlocks like a puzzle and forms one huge emotional line.
This emotional line is about 'pain' and the reason for enduring that pain.
⭐I think it would be good to focus on the different plays of these three people.
⭐ Also, since you come back to life immediately after dying in this game, feel free to try it out!!
⭐Do things you normally couldn't do out of fear of dying or losing your current gameplay.
Maybe you'll get a reward for your new actions 😤
🧍♂️ [A Man's Story] - The Fear of Escape and Survival
One day, a man wakes up in front of a castle. He wanders in a dark world different from reality.
Here we can feel the typical puzzle platformer controls.
✔ There are various interactions such as jumping, hanging, solving puzzles, and using objects.
✔ You must avoid or utilize the surrounding hazards and evade your enemies.
This guy's part deals with the horror of survival .
You have to run away from monsters without weapons and find a place to hide.
Above all, the pressure from the shadowy presence chasing him is tremendous🔥
But the man keeps moving forward... why is that?
Through the 'pain crystal' that we collect piece by piece in the game, we gradually get closer to the man's emotions😢
The moment I realized the true meaning of his suffering, my heart broke...😢
🛡️ [The Knight's Story] - The horror of fighting and sacrifice
This part is done completely differently.
The knight cannot jump, but must move using ropes and cut down enemies with his sword.
The enemies he faces appear endlessly like the forces of darkness,
Progress is impossible without avoiding slaughter.
✔️The article's part is very fairytale-like, dramatic, and tragic .
All his actions are for the "flower of the soul"🌼
But in order to obtain that flower, you must continuously offer 'pain' to the monster.
The suffering he experiences comes from sacrificing himself,
The path he takes leads to deeper and darker places.
This part is narrated by a girl's voice ,
It feels like I'm looking at a knight's life from an outside perspective.
A life of sacrifice for someone can be beautiful,
It was a part that made me feel strongly how helpless and sad one can be at the same time😢
👧 [Child's Story] - The fear of psychological oppression and anxiety
This part takes place in the most realistic setting .
Inside a small house, a young girl tells her story alone.
The girl explores the house while talking to the rabbit doll.
This conversation... is really strangely scary and sad... 😢
The conversation may be entirely in the child's imagination ,
Or maybe they are actually externalizing their emotions through the doll .
The child's behavior is simple,
The emotional oppression and fear felt within it are so deep that it is difficult to express in words.
Above all, “Who is that woman?” and “Why does this house feel unfamiliar?”
These questions keep lingering in my mind.
This part is the most calming, but at the same time contains the most eerie and shocking content .
🌫️ Three stories, connected as one
The stories of three people who at first seemed separate⭐
But as you progress into the later stages of the game, all of these stories start to come together.
And the connection between them is “love” and “memory.”
The game's title, I NMOST —the deepest part of our hearts— ultimately reveals the source of the emotions they share .
The person I loved ,
Lost memories,
And the pain it leaves behind.
All this we feel quietly, but deeply...
🎬 Explosion of direction and emotion
Inmost's presentation is top notch, even though it's just simple pixel art!⭐
The use of light, the movement of shadows, the smooth character motion, and even the sound design...
Especially in the emotional scenes in the latter half, the immersion is so great that you will naturally shed tears along with the background music.
It was a time when I immediately understood the stories of people shedding tears in many reviews😢
The window where light comes in, the moment the lights go out, even the flash of lightning⭐
Each of these detailed productions maximizes the immersion of the game🔥
🩷 Emotional review points!
✅ The storytelling is cinematic, so it’s incredibly immersive!
✅ A narrative structure that deals with pain in three dimensions through three characters
✅ Warm yet cold atmosphere created by emotional pixel art
✅ Highly recommended to those who like emotional horror!!
😥 Any regrets?
✅ It's a shame that it's short. I want to do more, but it's already over...😢
✅ I wish the combat parts were a bit more diverse!!🔥
✅ It's so emotionally focused that if you play too fast, you might miss the emotional line!🤔
⭐ Overall Rating:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This is not a simple game😢
I felt like this was an emotional journey, an inner journey....
Pain is scary, lonely, and burdensome, but
If it's for someone, can we endure it?
Inmost asks that question so quietly, yet deeply.
And the final narration.
"My suffering is the price I pay to make you smile even a little."
In this one sentence, all the emotions were really contained.
🔥Finally, I commemorate the review! 🔥
Inmost different style version made with AI
I'll finish by showing you!!
A little more horror added,,,!
It feels like a post-apocalypse..!
Finally another feeling pixel!!
An indie game that was more substantial and beautiful than any blockbuster.
more!
💙 Inmost 💙 This was a review!
Thank you for reading the long text :)
