I feel that Dark Kagutsuchi might be the last hope for male modifiers in this game. I'm not sure how seriously Yongshi takes the global sales, but if he fails, it could be a huge blow to the male modifiers in this game, which have already been losing strength over time. In fact, even the waifus aren't selling that well globally. Kuramitsuha sold 400K, and Izanami 500K. I expected top-tier characters like them to sell more. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying the game is dying or failing, but as someone who appreciates the game, I want to see it at its best. I wish the sales were higher. I believe it's impossible for Dark Kagu to sell more than 300K, but as I said, it seems that this goes beyond whether the character is female or male. I believe that global players are simply losing interest in the game, as the revenue numbers have been declining each month.

Especially when in CN we had almost 2 million dollars in profit with Thoth, now Dark Kagutsuchi is coming and might make 200K or less. These are two extremes and show the clear preference of the audience. After Thoth's success, I find myself wondering if this game might be heading down the Snowbreak route. No offense to Snowbreak players, but I don't want Aether Gazer to go that way, where the game basically boils down to big breasts and sensual characters. I think Aether Gazer has that, but it also has more. It’s a game with an engaging story, memorable soundtrack, powerful designs, and incredible characters, and that's what I wish for this game in the future. I'm not sure if the low number of male characters is due to sales or Yongshi's own preference. A friend told me that in Arknights, male characters are also a minority. In this case, maybe it's just the developers' taste and preference, which means that in one way or another, male characters will continue, but obviously in smaller numbers. What do you think?
