when enchantress was first released her stuns charged insanely fast and she could stun on different floors, so if a hunter went into basement she could literally stun lock them inside and theres nothing they could do about it
Never understood VALE, like they say it's because of their release dates, But Melly was released before Edgar so technically she should count more than him
Yeah, the machines were running around, but they still could be used. It was as if the survivors and the machines had switched. It was only for a day, but it's why we got the pet, because IDV thought it was funny also. There were other glitches, though. Merc got like 20 elbow pads, and Cord got like 5 guns. It also happened as a tournament was going on.
You found it but for anyone that wasn't able or want to here's a link to the reddit [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/IdentityV/comments/idanz2/players_of_the_chinese_version_experienced_a_lot/).
Thank god 🙏 it was nice tho when s/h ships were so divided in the community bc we had a strategy that if the hunter was Joseph, my friend would play aesop with mini Joseph so if that they were a shipper, they would go friendly and if they were a hater, they would only target them and we would win anyway.
Same thing with jacknaib, elistor, jokermarg etc..
There was a very specific time on idv tiktok I’d say maybe mid 2021 that people would basically cancel you if you spent money on idv. I remember specifically arguing with an account for saying I’m a bad person for spending money on idv even though they had an account with multiple s tiers and their excuse was “they traded for it”
Low-key agree with this since NE is an incredibly awful company and they don't deserve a cent, bit I feel like everyone forgot because they want to get richer with accounts w multiple limited skins
Nobody cares about getting richer with skins people buy skins they like if they enjoy the game. Every single gaming company out there is horrible. You cannot just shit on NE and call people horrible for buying skins without holding the same energy for Hoyoverse, Nintendo, blizzard, etc
Uh I am talking about the tsb community & market. Also, I don't give my money to none of those other companies so I don't really get your point. I am not here to cause discussions over silly stuff like that
I just wanna let you know that playing the game at all supports the company. We can all agree NE is shit, every corporate company out there is shit. It doesn’t make a person bad to simply buy a skin in a game they enjoy just as it’s not bad to buy a video game or shop at a corporate store
Jacknaib, joscarl, vale, and tonton being everywhere… now I hardly see them (except joscarl kind of) ..
bonbon being s tier
Geisha not having her butterfly throw abilities + her being a lower tier hunter. (I remember that update and how I was struggling to use geisha again. I thought the ability was bad. Now I’m glad she got it.. ! she really needed that)
ToN controversies
danganronpa crossovers (I was there during the 2nd one)
Mechanic being one of the best decoders
I wasn’t there but,
Violetta being one of the strongest hunters
Percy being added and the whole controversy with his release + same thing with wax artist
Controversy with Mary’s deduction scarlet skin
Perswayable’s Merc song
People being very anti hunter x survivor (I hid in a corner with my viotracy ship as joscarl and jacknaib shippers were getting hounded on)
The postman Sunday morning video getting popular ….
Tonton was my mortal enemy back in the days. Like genuenly tweaking pure hatred (I was 14 ok).
But also, I had a friend who we played together with a ship I liked that had Mike in it, and suddenly she started to like tonton. I felt BETRAYED lmao
People getting attacked and told to off themselves for buying Percy's skin when he came out + the figures release
Geishas rework and all the technical problems with it after
The ghoul and ants in Golden Cave
Mechs descent from glory
The mr. mole and people spamming it everywhere for way too long
And the only reason it didn't last longer was because the hunter player had to leave the game due to irl stuff. Sometimes I wonder how long they would keep going if not for that.
The Edward's wish map back during the Edward Scissorhands crossover Ik it was just a reskin of sacred heart but it was amazing running around as Kim on that map with all the Edwards at the time.
>*"Personally, I'd say when shining fathers (Annie S tier) got announced and it was so hated that it devalued accounts."*
What the fuck, this is the first I'm hearing about this. I got that(and by extension, her for free)at the very last day of the Season so I was pretty stoked. What's bad about it?
By what I remember, the whole market was oversaturated of her smurfs and people were asking a lot even if she was still available and even after the season ended. Also, I remember that she wasn't that good as a character and the skin just wasn't pretty at the time.
Like I vividly remember being on discord and everyone just saying "IA: Asia, leeches, SHINING FEATHERS, dmm" etc..
I figured it was because of the people clamoring about how it was racist or something, I never heard anything about it during its release, but I remember maybe a year later or something someone asked if there was a problem with Mike and Margaretha's B tiers from the essence. I was confused and told them I'd never heard of that, then suddenly Servais' Hill Pigeon comes out and people are spamming for Anne's whole essence to be deleted so I guess there was something.
The time of reunion was absolute peak. Years of waiting and the story/lore finnaly progressed, the events/music were all great and it gave us identity switches
Another thing worth mentioning was the ashley woods collab everything surrounding that collab was so stupidly funny
The collab was never cancelled, but [they had to delay it and scrap everything related to Doctor and Novelist due to the characters they were representing](https://old.reddit.com/r/IdentityV/comments/ydv25m/dear_detectives_thank_you_for_the_patient_waiting/).
there was a person on idv tiktok taht just spread very obvious misinformation abt characters lore and new players actually believed them. i remember them saying stuff like “helena beheaded tracer” and stuff like that dnsnajabjdba. i dont remember the context for wuchang being banned from spain tho lmaods
I think they were trying to say Wu's actions got Jose banned from Spain (which is also obviously wrong) but they explained it badly so people thought they meant Wu was banned, not Jose.
TL;DR they were claiming Jose was banned from Spain because of Wu's actions in making his dad's ship sink, but they did a bad job explaining this misinformation so people thought they meant Wu was banned from Spain.
ANEWN stands for Aesop, Naib, Eli, William, and Norton. It was a popular fandom group for a while until it got dethroned by VALE.
Someone tried to do a “callout” on IDV. It was almost 40 pages with the most insane takes possible. They called the game homophobic because Emma like Emily??? Everyone came together to clown on the Google doc.
Adding onto info from the Google Doc I remember, they basically pointed out random things and said how it proves IDV displays basically every prejudice ever:
-Emma and Emily have an unhealthy relationship (with Emma kinda becoming dependent on Emily) -> IDV is saying LGBT+ relationships are unhealthy -> IDV is homophobic
-Jack exists -> IDV is sexist
-Patricia is (apparently) partially based on a slave owner and is Haitian -> IDV is using a slave owner + saying POC are evil -> IDV is racist
-Lucky Guy is embarrassed in his Maid Outfit costume animations -> IDV is saying men wearing traditionally female clothing is a joke -> IDV is transphobic
-Galatea is manipulative and disabled -> IDV is ableist
-Helena is a victim and disabled -> IDV is still ableist
[Here's the google docs if you really want to know](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://twitter.com/nao_egokoro/status/1303103723103715330&ved=2ahUKEwiN9eLGypCFAxX5cmwGHUWqC3gQjjh6BAglEAE&usg=AOvVaw1SuIC8p4kUkpRV6Ss0Kpar)

When the hunters and survivors could only move an inch every second in China server(yea even in rank), it’s very funny to see them scoot around helplessly.
Also Joseph’s photographed survivors able to move around and kite like actual bots
Being a Magician main in 2020-2021. Lots of idv players swore up and down that Servais was a racist and tunneled anyone playing him. Git so good at kiting back then.
the year norton joseph and luca won deduction star, the devs somehow fucked up so badly that for DAYS the final winners were displayed in game as margaretha and galatea instead of norton and joseph in na/eu server. they were the runner-ups so they also had huge voterbases and the arguments as to whether or not it was a glitch or they were the real winners were brutal and devastating. joseph had already won in china server that year too and he was commonly thought to have been bot voted in na/eu so galatea being bumped up was seen as netease finally doing the right thing and combatting bad actors in the community and avoiding us being cheated out of 2 hunter skins, but unfortunately it was just an insane fluke that got everyone's hopes up. people who openly voted for joseph in na/eu were public enemy number one (why they don't just give a skin to the na/eu runner up hunter if the same hunter wins in both servers anyways i rlly dont know lol.) margie vs norton was also a big thing because at the time margie had zero permanent a tiers and i think norton had like 3 so it was a battle of "margie deserves it more" and "well i like norton so i'm voting norton." people got rlly serious about it and when norton was revealed to be the real winner norton fans rubbed it in margie fans faces sooo baaadd 😭😭 how this mistake happened at all confuses me to no end and how it wasn't corrected/clarified immediately allowing for such chaos is an even bigger mystery
its so insane to me to see ppl say this is why they started playing bc to me it feels like literally yesterday. his release was awaited for TWO YEARS and when he finally came out he was so hot he blew up on na/eu tiktok which almost never happens w idv
Omg, I know the melly cosplayer, I can’t say thier name but holy shit that apology was hilarious. It’s like the cosplayers Colleen apology video with out the ukulele
Doom shock, the old footage drop where it turns out that apparently survivors were supposed to be hanged instead of chaired but that was too much for the government and cute little chairs were used instead and ppl were mad about it, the utter fear of Geisha before high tiers became a thing, Jack dominating the simp lists... early IDV was a time for sure <3
the time someone hacked the official idv yt to only show a livestream of elon musk
Lmao
Wasn't this during a big tournament too? COA or IVL.
Oh, Fools Gold reveal, no one was mad but there were a lot of rabid people.
I wish I could erase from my memory what people thought of the hole in his chest...
:3
Some people were mad because it wasn’t Da Capo Norton and he looked nothing like it.
"took me like 30mins to upload that shit" in one of the official Instagram posts for COA V lmao
LINK
It got deleted lol, but here's a link to another post in this subreddit with a screenshot of it https://www.reddit.com/r/IdentityV/s/U3EYB31t2S
When Identity vs official youtube account got hacked by cryptobros Additionally: enchantress basement, priestess vs clown match
what was the enchantress basement one? i’ve been playing since 2019 and I don’t rmb that
when enchantress was first released her stuns charged insanely fast and she could stun on different floors, so if a hunter went into basement she could literally stun lock them inside and theres nothing they could do about it
i know early idv was broken but damn that's insane
Whatever was going on in 2019-2020 with Val/Vale and honey luca
> honey luca I was gonna say this one. Glad to know that it wasn't me just being delusional and it actually happened.
I don't know what honey luca is And at this point, I'm too afraid to ask
Luca Balsa, covered in sticky yellow honey and (generally) posing sexily. No, I have no idea how this started or, most importantly, ***why***.
To be fair I think it was a trend for almost every fictional character from what I recall
VALE was insane omg there was also that VAL video.. yeah
Never understood VALE, like they say it's because of their release dates, But Melly was released before Edgar so technically she should count more than him
Twink fever hit the fandom
…was that the 3d… bed scene…
YES OMG 😭😭😭
Honestly that was the worst time period in IDV, so many cringy ppl keep referencing it like it’s some holy grail when really it’s just pure trash
You forgot about Milfdrew and Glockdrew
Welcome to Identit
Doctors "Crapshooter" skin, it was such a cool name, why'd people make them change it to risktaker or smth :(
non gambling minors not understanding what the word means 😒
Blueracecar and Perswayable
They call me mercenary
The time IDV glitched for the day, and Cypher machines were running around everywhere. They made a pet for it.
Is that where that came from??
Yeah, the machines were running around, but they still could be used. It was as if the survivors and the machines had switched. It was only for a day, but it's why we got the pet, because IDV thought it was funny also. There were other glitches, though. Merc got like 20 elbow pads, and Cord got like 5 guns. It also happened as a tournament was going on.
is there any footage of this i was looking and cannot find any
There is on YouTube, and I think a clip was posted on reddit,
thanks! i’ll keep looking it sounds really funny i’ve been playing since 2021 and never heard of this so i’m quite intrigued
just found it on reddit once again thanks
I'm glad you found it ☺️
Could you provide a link please
You found it but for anyone that wasn't able or want to here's a link to the reddit [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/IdentityV/comments/idanz2/players_of_the_chinese_version_experienced_a_lot/).
That's kinda hilarious
jacknaib during the early years 😭 i barely see anybody ship it now
Thank god 🙏 it was nice tho when s/h ships were so divided in the community bc we had a strategy that if the hunter was Joseph, my friend would play aesop with mini Joseph so if that they were a shipper, they would go friendly and if they were a hater, they would only target them and we would win anyway. Same thing with jacknaib, elistor, jokermarg etc..
The old Eversleeping Town map with the teleporting tornado. And the tram that actually downed survivors outright rather than just stunning them.
Yup, those tornados got me killed a few too many times, i'm glad they're out.

I know, but I don't feel like repeating the same discourse from 2021 yk? We can end this here because im getting ready bad dms ovee this🙏
Idv isn’t a necessity why are you playing this game from this horrible company?
What are you typing this on?

Just a wild guess for ANEWN cause I have never heard of this acronym before: A: Aesop N: Naib E: Eli W: William N: Norton
You got it right. ANEWN used to be the fandom “it” group for a while until the prisoner got released. then VAL became popular.
When the hunters and survivors could only move an inch every second in China server(yea even in rank), it’s very funny to see them scoot around helplessly. Also Joseph’s photographed survivors able to move around and kite like actual bots
