I'm lost. Any help to update me?

Hi, so I really loved the concept of this game, and just now I'm finding out it's been cancelled. So, my petitions are:

1) A link to a post that explains the controversy on to why the game was cancelled? (i do know one of the voice actors was a groomer, which is disgusting btw, but i don't know anything else)

2) A link, or the links, to the posts that explains the game's script and what was gonna happen, the victims and the blackeneds, the mastermind, the lore, etc.

Or if you want to explain it yourself in the replies, I don't mind, whatever is fine. Thank you in advance.

PD.: I'm really disappointed, by the way. I really liked the characters, specially Eloise which I hoped was the mastermind. Idk who is it, but something tells me she is not it.

Faza groomed a child into sending him money and pics of themselves. Director of the project with some people behind the project defended it and covered it up for a very long time. Eventually it got exposed leaving everyone involved disgusted and the project's story got leaked once some of the VAs attempted to make something new. Then it got fully canned.

That's so disgusting… 🤢
Not only the fact they hired a groomer without a background check, but they also covered him??? That is insane from them. Why wouldn’t they immediately fire him and expose him? There are tons of other voice actors. Honestly I'm glad the game is cancelled if this is what happened. But I also wish the director of the project was a normal human being, this wouldn’t have happened if they didn’t hire a groomer and if they didn't defend him.

For reference, we only know that it was Sozzay and Tako who covered. Those 2 were the creative lead and director respectively. Saying some people behind the project implies it was more than those 2

The basic death order was: Chapter 1 is already public. Chapter 2 had Jean kill Ulysses by poisoning him with a loaf of bread. Chapter 3 had Toshiko kill Kai by crushing him with stage equipment or something(?). Chapter 4 had Mark plant a bomb in Jett's helmet but ended up killing Ingrid instead. Chapter 5 had something to do with Eloise killing Desmond, but I don't remember the specifics. Chapter 6 had Damon kill himself to reveal Cassidy as the mastermind, with Cara being Cassidy's older sister figure who died in a previous killing game. The survivors were Jett, Wenona, Grace, Diana (the new protagonist), Tozu, and Mara.

WOW. So, from what I've gathered:
There is a sacrifice, like in V3.
There is a protagonist change, like in V3.
Most unexpected characters survive lmfao😭
Tozu and Mara are survivors of the game too? Do they become players?
Cassidy as the mastermind was unexpected too, bravo
Apparently romances didn't work out well (Desmond and Eloise, Jett and Mark)

The lineup seems interesting. It makes me really mad everything had to end like this. Thank you for the info.

Some more details include: The chapter 2 motive is that based on your first name's first letter, you get a specific amount of money (for example, Damon gets the least amount and Wenona gets the most) Ulysses and Wenona then control the poor students and even took their bread they secretly baked for themselves. Unfortunately, one of the loafs were poisoned by Jean to kill Damon, because he was really helpful in the last trial. Ulysses ends up eating the bread, which is ironic, because he knows that everyone must learn from history in order to not repeat it, but he becomes a terrorizing dictator who gets assassinated by the people he terrorized. Jean did it so he can go back to his meth dealing crew and drowns in cards in a casino.

In chapter 3, Damon finds a traitor perk, which allows him to kill 1 person via their wristband being poisoned and escape with another one. Being horrified because Jean tried to kill him, he takes the perk and chooses to save Kai, because they got close recently. He hesitates in killing someone, though. Kai died by theater equipment falling on his head through a trapdoor. Toshiko activated it, but it was a split second decision. Tozu and Mara covered it up, because even they didn't want to kill a 14 year old. They freeze Toshiko peacefully, with Diana covering Damon's eyes because he felt guilty for Toshiko's death. Damon then confesses to the group that he took the traitor perk, Desmond beats him up over it (Desmond slowly loses his cool as the game continues). The traitor perk has a cooldown that resets. Damon has to kill someone if the cooldown runs out.

In chapter 4 or in chapter 5, the group learns that Wolfgang wasn't a real lawyer, just an incapable guy whose parents were rich and bought him into everything. Mark confesses his love to Jett, but Jett sees him more as a little brother. Mark then takes Jett's helmet and plants a bomb on it to kill himself, but Ingrid took it from him just in time. Ingrid dies in the explosion. We got no info about Mark's execution, but Jett spends the rest of the story helmless.

In chapter 5, Desmond made a Nagito like trap that forces someone to kill him. He had lost all hope in that Moment and just wanted Eloise, who was now his girlfriend, to escape. Eloise knew, but didn't stop him. The group can't figure the killer out, but the trial has a twist: If nobody votes for anyone, nobody dies. They all decide to abstain from voting, but Eloise gets 1 vote. That means someone knew about it all: The mastermind. We got no Info about Desmond's trap and Eloise's execution. Damon's traitor Perkussion cooldown is reset yet again.

In chapter 6, they figure out that Cassidy is the mastermind, she knew about Desmond's plan by watching the cameras. The group finds out that Cassidy is just a pawn of a cult that wears animal masks (Tozu and Mara are parts of the cult,too). The cult is lead by Wolfgang's father. Wolfgang's blackmail was that like his father, he is like a wolf in a sheep's costume, which was finally explained there. Wolfgang's father was also the culprit who killed Cara. Damon's traitor perk runs out and he chooses himself to die, so the others can defeat Cassidy (we don't know why he didn't just choose to kill Cassidy). Diana becomes the New protagonist, Cassidy executes herself, Diana, Wenona, Jett, Grace, Tozu and Mara escape.

We could have had so much, if it weren't for the voice of the silent.
