As Aether Gazer approaches its first anniversary, the community is boiling over due to the developers' controversial handling of character bugs. Following the closure of the Lei Xiu banner, the developers suddenly patched bugs for Lei Xiu and Thor. The catch? These issues had been reported by veteran playtesters for over six months while the developers remained silent. By fixing them only after the banners were removed—resulting in significant character nerfs with zero compensation—the devs essentially 'stabbed' their paying customers in the back.
The player base is calling out the developers for blatant double standards. In the past, bugs for characters like 'Zhen Li' and 'Silver Arm' were embraced as 'intended mechanics' to buff them, whereas 'Lei Xiu' and 'Thor' were nerfed back to their descriptions. This has led many to feel like they are paying to beta-test a broken product. Worse yet, when the devs stayed silent, angry players harassed the volunteer playtesters who had originally reported the bugs, leading these testers to quit entirely.
The community comments are scathing, with many questioning if the design and balance teams even speak to each other. Players cited a history of 'hidden nerfs' (such as the alteration to Guo Changli’s ultimate) and balance issues where generic weapons often outperform exclusive signature weapons. As one user put it, this isn't an anniversary celebration—it's a full-blown public relations disaster.
