[Bullet Angel] New Year Limited Character Uses Sister's Remains as Weapon; Official Devs Quickly Retcon

Recently, the game 'Bullet Angel' sparked a heated debate regarding its New Year limited character, 'Dongzhi'. Initially, the character was presented as living happily with his sister,

and the signature weapon released alongside him looked quite stylish.

However, the lore behind the weapon left players stunned.

The weapon's flavor text implied that the character had crafted it using the remains of his deceased sister. Releasing such 'cursed' or extremely dark lore during the Lunar New Year—a time for celebration—led fans to dub it the 'Sister’s Spine Sword'.

Facing intense backlash, the developers quickly attempted to sweep it under the rug by silently changing the text to 'made of natural materials' without any official apology or explanation. This lack of transparency has left many wondering: were they trying to be 'edgy' and 'cool', or is this just a gross misunderstanding of their audience?

In the comment section, players were outraged. Some criticized the writing style as amateurish and 'cringey'.

Others compared the dark twist to characters like 'Bondrewd' (a famous villain known for unethical human experimentation) from *Made in Abyss*, labeling the design choices as truly 'hellish' and inappropriate.
