What is it/what is it about? Identity V is an asymmetrical horror game set in the Victorian era, focusing on a mysterious manor and the invitations coming from the owner, promising their most wanted thing if they participate in a game.
What do you love about it? The eerie atmosphere and the characters. There are so many of them that there will be someone you enjoy a lot.
Where should people start? The original prologue that's not in the game anymore since the 2.0 update, but can be watched here. After that, Time of Reunion and after that Ashes of Memory, continuation of the story. it can all be played in game or watched here Note that it contains some additional events related to in-game characters and is connected to the main lore, will mention it underneath next.
After the main story, "closing night" story related to the Hullaballo game. After that, game 4 diaries and winter game diaries (this is an old format and is a little outdated. can also be played in the game like main story and hullabaloo one).
Besides this, there are character day/birthday letters that give you something about characters and their games. They are all present on the game wiki, as you need to do the character day event quest to obtain it, and that will take a while if you start playing the game now.
Do you have any content warnings? A lot of these are only heavily implied due to the game being Chinese and having censorship in a lot of aspects, but some warnings are: grooming, incest, mentions of brutal ways of death, child abuse, implied one-sided attraction of an asylum victim and child abuse victim being in love with her doctor, fictional cults. Some of these will require a lot of reading between the lines to see and some are more obvious.
