Cheritz's changes in staff over the lifetime of The Ssum

I wanted to write a post about this because it was the nail in the coffin convincing me that The Ssum won't get better. I really want to be optimistic, I was for the first year of the game's release. But with how hard they're fumbling June's route, and having some context by seeing the dramatic changes that happen behind the scenes, I don't have any hope for the game's future in its original concept.

So here's a big fat list of credits, comparison of them, and my own stupid commentary.

A comparison of the beta OPs credits (2018) vs the new OP credits (April 2022)

Credits from 2019

These are in the lyric booklet included in the Teo Love Bundle. Strangely enough, I'm already seeing differences between the 2018 credits and 2019. Uh oh?

As of release + a few months

These screenshots don't feature all the credits, unfortunately. I'm relying on screenshots someone else took because I'm not proactive but hindsight is 20/20.

Changes: Project is no longer managed by Heinrich Dortmann, instead by Juho Woo. Scenario team cut down to 2 people, one of which is a new name (Jooyoung Lim). Art team also cut down to 2 people. Sound is no longer resourced by Songhee Kim, but Jaeryeon Park and ROGIA. All new team of directing assistants as well, it expanded to 4 people but they're all new names. 2 fewer programmers, only one of the listed names was already working.

October 2023 (June's release)

Here's where it somehow gets worse lol.

Changes: A lot. Directing assisted by 1 person. They were not a part of the team credited in the OP. Down to 3 programmers, only 1 being in the OP. Entirely new art team! It's up to 4 people, but all of them are new, even compared to only a few months prior. Down to 1 scenario writer pobrecita (but we're coming back to that). Since I don't have screenshots of the project assistant credits from launch, can't say anything for that, except that Gui Zhenghao is new compared to the OP but the number of staff there remained the same. Flaming Heart is gone for the BGM! He's been working with Cheritz for forever but is gone now. One person from the communication team left, so they're down to 2. That would explain why emails have been slower since October. Only 1 translator, though Cheritz is now looking to recruit new ones.

Important note:

According to Cheritz's post acknowledging their use of gAI, Sujin Ri was not involved in writing season 1 of the game, but IS the main writer for season 2. I won't make a rant about how much I hate what she's writing cuz this isn't the post for that, but it explains why season 2 is so vastly different.

The fact that only a few people (like, in the lower single digits) remain even from 2019/early 2022, let alone who's still around from 2018, is really frustrating for the game. The game started with one vision, but now it's being turned into something completely different. Even the app's functions are inconsistant between season 1 and 2 (and a little so between Harry and Teo). According to an email I got from Cheritz, season 2 takes place a few years before season 1. Just sit with that knowledge for a bit :P. It's like the current people in charge of The Ssum (*cough Sujiin Ri*) couldn't be bothered to keep the original concept in mind, let alone how the timeline would work.

This post was a long time coming, I was caught up in just how bizarre this all is and finding tons of stuff that I haven't even included in the post. Writing this has taken about 3 hours (including the time I spent on a post ONLY FOR TUMBLR TO NOT WANNA WORK PROPERLY WHEN I TRIED TO POST IT SO IT GOT DELETED) and uhhh yeah. Now I gotta wait a few years to ask former staff if their NDAs are expired yet LOL

I have returned to Eldarya after a million more years. It's time. Yes, it's time to get serious with completing the story, even if I will hugely forget everything going on per episode, but oh well, WHO THE FUCK CARES AM I RIGHT LMAOOOOJSKSJSJS. Also, it's time for me to collect more new fantasy clothes and accessories. Obviously. Because I actually kinda miss doing that, even though using your companion to collect is a major hassle... Nonetheless, I guess that's what we call as ✨️fun✨️, I suppose. My username is Mochim if you want to send me a friend request there. I accept all requests. 🤍

I came back because.... I'm also currently waiting for the app for MCL new gen to be released. They said it was "coming soon"... so who knows when that will be lol. My new gen user is Subin#765 by the way! Feel free to send friend requests over there too! I will accept those as well. I'm only playing new gen for customization and well- Jason. 👁🫦👁🖤

I don't have a working computer unfortunately 🤣 only a phone and a tablet which is exactly what this game doesn't want 😂😂😂

Anyways... byes for now

[bluestation]

Hello! I hope I'm not bothering. You are Subin on Twitter right? I don't have a Twitter account but I am a big fan of Tom's Workers so I always stalk the Twitter tag for content and I'm happy to see how big the community actually is! I always thought that Franky and Iceburg fans were just a few but I was wrong! I was thinking... what about a Tom's Workers discord? I don't like Twitter much but I'd really love to interact with the Tom's Workers fan community! If you don't think it's a good idea it's fine though!! I will keep silently supporting your beautiful art even without an account 🥰

hello, not a bother at all!! yep, that's me 😆 i do think there's more of us than one might expect! or at least more art than one might expect, everyone seems very dedicated, haha.

i'm afraid i'm not much of a discord server user! :,-) so i don't think i could do much for you in that regard, but i'd still be more than happy to talk about tom's workers together!! if you'd like, you can always message me on here or ask privately for my discord username (i do use it sparingly for private messages!)

thank you very much for enjoying my art and reaching out to me!! always happy to know these two are running through other people's minds too 💜🚂💙⚒

[ovrtimelove]

i actually have a lot of kpop idol ocs with one of my friends, and we make 'fanfic' aus of them heehee. we even have kpop fic author ocs???? lmk if i cooked, u guys (THE LINKS AND USERS ARE FAKE. THEY JUST LEAD TO "https://domain.ext/path/")

anonymous asks : miss nainai!! welcome back to tumblr 🫡 its been a while. have you read any fics you want to suggest 2 us? naizu-visualz : ahhhh thank you so much for the wb o(￣▽￣)ｄ !!!! nainai's class' field trip was very fun, and i read many physical books lol. if im allowed to recommend from the selection there, i enjoyed jack reacher lolol.. it might sound unexpected, because it is mystery and thriller, but i like any genre of book as for fanfic, hmmmmm :3 it's very hard to choose when there are so many good ones... i'll list the ones i remember off the top of my head (≧∇≦)ﾉ !! but i might make a big post? hehe our weathered hearts will remember by @.88czns. myungyun, chaptered, finished. if you enjoy past life trope and want to see reincarnations too, owhwr is a good read for you :D!! it has many emotional moments that can resonate with one's heart. the author has gotten comments and asks that say they've cried to the fic many times.. that means its very good!! i also cried and sent something to her. TT... if you find that you want more after the ending, don't worry!! there is an am:vl spinoff sm!au where they have frequent reappearances, even through the children's banter lol ヾ(≧▽≦*)o blood of the covenant by @.ryungswr. myungyun, chaptered, finished. religious themes, vampire!myungdae, and 1900s vibes, all wrapped into one?? nainai never really thought that it would work with myungyun, but considering bite me era, i dont think i should be surprised.. the way yongsun was handled here made me gasp!! his character was very iconic (as much as i hate to say it LOL) and impacted the story.. poetically written, give it five stars o(￣▽￣)ｄ... if you finish reading it but want more, there's a crack au and a no-schedule 'sequel'! sunflower and angel's trumpet by @.0425zz. lunette, florist!linette x mafia!dailu, chaptered, ongoing. i was a casual dreamie listener, but this made me look into the group even further.. if you like old money aesthetics, double life, and very dynamic character dynamics, please read this story.. the characterization is so fun and refreshing, and there are direct references to sweeties' inside jokes lol. there's even ANGST!! AND I THOUGHT SWEETIES WERE ALLERGIC TO ANGST!!!! /HVYJ....... and it's so well done...... it will make you cry. TT....... chapter 57 'poppy' is nainai's biggest opp. (╯▔皿▔)╯!!! grrrr i will get you, zizi.. bite the bullet by @.88czns and @.mawuwamaz. ot6 rdwy (myeongyoko, magnetz, flowerz) ft. dreamie, mafia au, multi-fic series, ongoing. btb is not one fic, but multiple inside one named bundle! it is basically many stories set in the same universe with the same characters lol. my personal favorite is the flowerz one, because while the dynamic is similar to sunflower and marigold.. there is something more shocking when you get to the middle point hehe. btb has too many good things to talk about, so nainai suggests that you check it out for yourself and leave a reblog!! 🙇‍♂️ we are endless by @.endeulset. post-disbandment, ot7, chaptered, finished. nainai believes that this one is the most emotional, especially for endeuls.. two chapters cover one member (except for seongsu2 who stick together in their chapters) and detail speculations, how they feel about separating from czn and skytali, staying to work there (like sunwoo, jeonghui, and jiyoon), and even having a special chapter inspired by subin's twitter post with the bunnies at the restaurant.. it's very nostalgic and melancholic, your heart feels calm as you read ^^. as an endeul, it made me feel happy for the members, knowing that they've gone on paths that they know they'll be truly happy with.. but they'll still find ways to be together that's all!! maybe nainai will make a bigger post with all her recs, but that's for another day..

i wanted to make nainai's blog real (i even made a sideblog) but with school, ill be too busy to manage it lol.

headcanons sobre el personaje:

uno. inquieto desde pequeño, subin siempre se vio envuelto en travesuras que involucraban a sus padres corriendo de un lado a otro; desde brincar de mueble en mueble, hasta treparse a las ramas más altas de los árboles. progenitores lo adoraban de todas formas, con sus ocurrencias y desastres, razón por la que se crió sin sentirse limitado, dejando crecer esa curiosidad sin miedo a ser explorada.

dos. cuando accidente automovilístico le quita a sus padres, mundo se viene abajo por completo. se hundió meses en silencio, donde la única persona con la que hablaba era su hermano mayor. el matrimonio song también fue de apoyo durante las etapas de duelo, teniéndole toda la paciencia y empatía que necesitaba. sin embargo, fue el mismo recuerdo de los yeo el que logró sacarlo de la oscuridad. sus padres hubieran querido verlo bien, feliz, siguiendo adelante, y subin no pensaba decepcionarlos.  

tres. decidió estudiar comunicación debido a su capacidad de expresión oral, así como por su deseo de conocer más sobre los medios audiovisuales. fue durante un proyecto que comenzó un canal de youtube, hablando sobre los temas que más le apasionaban: las teorías conspirativas, los avistamientos de aliens, y sucesos paranormales. para su sorpresa, despertó el interés de sus compañeros y, posteriormente, de personas externas a la universidad, generando números grandes de vistas en sus vídeos.

cuatro. tiene un muñeco en forma de alien desde los diez años llamado agapito. solía llevarlo a todas partes, recibiendo burlas de los demás niños sin cesar, no obstante, eso nunca le importó, ni antes ni ahora. al contrario, le gusta molestar a sus hermanos con él, como dejarlo por la casa en posiciones extrañas o cargarlo consigo cuando debe verlos en público.

cinco. se ha metido en problemas con la policía al ingresar a propiedades privadas y abandonadas a grabar segmentos para su canal de youtube, pero ha logrado mantenerlo en secreto de sus padres adoptivos hasta la fecha.

Aí ele deu uns pulos por aí, carregava sacola pra idosa, lavava carro, engrachava sapato, o que tava dando dinheiro ele tava fazendo. Menos vender droga que aí ele ia apanhar mais que bife buro na panela, isso ele não queria não. A mãe dizia que ele tinha que estudar e não se preocupar com mais nada, mas até que dava pra fazer as duas coisa numa boa e ainda conseguia ficar com um trocado no final do mês.

Não que ele gastasse, era só um adolescente sem perspectiva nenhuma. Aí veio a internet, os jogos online, a obsessão. Foi mais fácil fazer amigos na escola, também, ter algo em comum sempre gerava boas discussões. Qual boneco era mais forte, qual o melhor item, como jogar sem parecer um cone. Quando conheceu os campeonatos, Siwoo queria fazer aquilo também. Valia dinheiro, viajava o mundo, ganharia fama. Que adolescente sem nada na cabeça não desejava ser famoso e rico?

Siwoo não era exceção.

Pois bem, ele deu um jeito de conseguir metade do caminho, depois de muito custo conseguiu entrar para uma organização. Mas foi ali que o caldo engrossou. Siwoo tinha dificuldade em jogar com outros bonecos, tinha dificuldade de lidar com a pressão de sempre ser bom em tudo, não perder, não decepcionar ninguém. Ele deu fuga, aquilo não era pra ele não. Mas ele ainda tinha a meta de ser rico e famoso.

Ele começou a fazer o mesmo que os jogadores aposentados faziam, mas claro, com nem 1% do público que eles tinham. Mas as coisas foram melhorando com o passar do tempo, seu nome foi ficando conhecido, seus vídeos tinham mais visualizações com o passar do tempo e era suficiente para botar dinheiro em casa. A mãe tava feliz num relacionamento novo, o cara era até que legal e enchia ela de presente. Tava mais do que suficiente pra vida de cão que a coitada passou.

Siwoo hoje só tenta fazer seu pé de meia pra dar uma vida melhor pra mãe, com um pouco mais de luxo que eles nunca tiveram. Bom, essa parte ele ainda não sabia como ia fazer, mas ia dar um jeito como sempre fez em toda sua vida já que a morte é a única coisa que não tem jeito mesmo.

headcanons sobre el personaje:

uno. inquieto desde pequeño, subin siempre se vio envuelto en travesuras que involucraban a sus padres corriendo de un lado a otro; desde brincar de mueble en mueble, hasta treparse a las ramas más altas de los árboles. progenitores lo adoraban de todas formas, con sus ocurrencias y desastres, razón por la que se crió sin sentirse limitado, dejando crecer esa curiosidad sin miedo a ser explorada.

dos. cuando accidente automovilístico le quita a sus padres, mundo se viene abajo por completo. se hundió meses en silencio, donde la única persona con la que hablaba era su hermano mayor. el matrimonio song también fue de apoyo durante las etapas de duelo, teniéndole toda la paciencia y empatía que necesitaba. sin embargo, fue el mismo recuerdo de los yeo el que logró sacarlo de la oscuridad. sus padres hubieran querido verlo bien, feliz, siguiendo adelante, y subin no pensaba decepcionarlos.  

tres. decidió estudiar comunicación debido a su capacidad de expresión oral, así como por su deseo de conocer más sobre los medios audiovisuales. fue durante un proyecto que comenzó un canal de youtube, hablando sobre los temas que más le apasionaban: las teorías conspirativas, los avistamientos de aliens, y sucesos paranormales. para su sorpresa, despertó el interés de sus compañeros y, posteriormente, de personas externas a la universidad, generando números grandes de vistas en sus vídeos.

cuatro. tiene un muñeco en forma de alien desde los diez años llamado agapito. solía llevarlo a todas partes, recibiendo burlas de los demás niños sin cesar, no obstante, eso nunca le importó, ni antes ni ahora. al contrario, le gusta molestar a sus hermanos con él, como dejarlo por la casa en posiciones extrañas o cargarlo consigo cuando debe verlos en público.

cinco. se ha metido en problemas con la policía al ingresar a propiedades privadas y abandonadas a grabar segmentos para su canal de youtube, pero ha logrado mantenerlo en secreto de sus padres adoptivos hasta la fecha.
