Phainon being an unequivocal flop around the same time utterly broke them. The realization that not only was their astroturfing pointless, but that Hoyo does better when it does the opposite of what they want (see the decline in HSR) is so terrifying they can't even come up with anything anymore. Like how desperate do you have to be to bring back "femoroid" posting holy kek.
