Girls' Frontline 2 Monthly Pass Caught in Text-Only 'Fix' for Missing Stamina — Second Time Devs Rewrite Descriptions Instead of Delivering, Community Erupts

Girls' Frontline 2's ops team pulled another legendary move — the monthly pass stamina potion that was promised? Not actually included. Did they add it? Nope. They just edited the description text and pretended nothing happened. Players saw the screenshots and lost it: they literally only changed the words.

Here's the gist: the monthly pass item originally stated "daily supply includes crystals and keys," implying a stamina potion was part of the deal. Turns out it wasn't actually there. Instead of retroactively adding the rewards, the dev team simply deleted that promise from the description entirely. As one commenter put it: "Rename it to: Girls' Frontline 2 Deletes Its Vows."

The comment section absolutely erupted. One top reply pointed out that giving daily stamina with a monthly pass is basically standard practice in gacha games. With community sentiment already overwhelmingly negative, this was the perfect chance to add the stamina and score some goodwill. Instead, the producer (mockingly nicknamed "XiXiZhong" — a derogatory pun on his real name) once again managed to pick the worst possible option on every decision. "Dude literally has a death wish with PR at this point."

Another commenter cracked a system novel joke: "I'm starting to think this guy has a protagonist system — the more money he loses on his game, the better the real-world rewards he gets." Classic "go broke to become the richest" (亏成首富) novel vibes. Someone else replied simply: "Guess he's pretty happy with the revenue."

What really floored players was that this was allegedly the SECOND time paid content didn't match its description, and the devs' response was to rewrite the text instead of fixing the actual product. One user said it perfectly: "My first reaction isn't even anger anymore — it's just bewilderment." Others questioned whether this constitutes outright fraud, asking whether the beta version had the stamina potion (implying a bait-and-switch).

Several commenters broke down the business logic and found it baffling: whales don't need one extra stamina potion a day, and low-spenders won't trade premium currency for stamina anyway. Giving it costs the company literally nothing. "Changing the text instead of adding the potion only makes you look worse — it's a self-own." One sympathetic player asked: "Does the producer really need to treat his remaining loyal players this way?"

The whole affair is so absurd that players have run out of energy to even rage. Monthly pass stamina is industry baseline in gacha games — GFL2 not only skipped it but actively erased the promise. At a time when the game's reputation is already in the gutter, continuing to antagonize the playerbase like this is genuinely baffling. The ops team really is speedrunning every possible way to make things worse.
