COA I: The sea as still as a lake can make one momentarily forget the chaos of a storm. Although a stone cannot create ripples on the ocean's surface, it can stir up waves in a person's heart. "Somewhere in this word is buried a treasure desired by all." Travellers chasing their dreams did not hesitate, even though the journey is treacherous and bound to be forgotten. However, in this journey where only one person can reach the destination, none are suspicious of the direction they are set on going in(? idk the sentence is just like this). Dreams that are always colliding and intertwining, will become wings that fan the upcoming storm. Even if the wind and rain are like knives/swords and Ji(a type of Chinese pole arm I didn't know either tbh), regardless of the darkness they faced, there would be treasures at the end of their journey, a light amidst the darkness that would never be extinguished. Go, go and create your own legend. Go! Go win the ultimate glory！ ( The rough translation. They didn't give me much punctuation to work with so its hard to tell where each sentence starts and ends. I hope it at least makes sense )
COA II: (But even I cant understand it that well-) It is the beacon that guides explorers to gather, and also the outlaw's last refuge. A nameless young man is amongst them, constantly pursuing the echoes in his mind，a fire to be extinguished. Here, the battle between ice and fire comes to an end. The roar which once resounded through the entire city in the past, is now but the echo of a whimper. The dying firelight reflects the long asleep shadow within the snow and ice, constantly expanding and spreading. When the ice and rain penetrate the cooling body, warmth-less blood is left with only boiling madness(literal translation, it doesn't make sense to me either. Its some fancy literature.) The weak are left unprotected, malice blooming amidst insanity. The eliminated are forgotten, while the young man wandering on edge finally broke through his confusion. However, the betrayer coveted treasure, finally awakening an even more terrifying storm. The ship that sailed a hundred years ago has long since decayed, Laliya's(? name perhaps idk the actual spelling) nightmare, reenacted in a tower(?????) A cry of despair floated through the biting cold wind. Even if it becomes the dwelling of the unclean, it is better than silently dying in the ice. As the battle reaches its peak, under the abyss there is no room for hesitation. The thing forged in the molten fire, is it chaos? Or is it hope? On the road to the endless abyss. Only by coming out on top can one keep watch(?) without regrets(i didnt understand this either)
@@serratedseranity For COA 1, "none are suspicious of the journey they are going in" means " No one on the ship would double guess the direction or pathway to their goal" so rather than the literal meaning its trying to say that the crew members were all persistent in their own beliefs. As for COA II the word for "keep watch" is basically "protect", so they're basically saying only by getting to the top can you protect the things you treasure without regrets!
@@givemethedie8464 Ah, I kinda figured that was what the first one meant. I just tried to write in a more literal way cause I didn't want my own interpretation to be taken as the hard and fast truth of what was meant. And yeah, I can see that being the case for the second one 🙏
COA is literally a fanfiction written by Orpheus😭 if you pay attention in AOM one of the books Alice can bring to the manor is Call of The Abyss. Btw COA 1-7 are connected although sometimes not directly
Identity V as a game may be a threat to my wallet but one thing we cannot criticize Netease about is their COA lore videos and promotion materials in general (high quality animation is super expensive). So happy you finally did this, also character lore videos next? I swear your appreciation and sympathy for certain characters will multiply by ten, the hunters all have such tragic backstories (especially compared to survivors-)
k so idk if someone already did this but i can explain the coa 1 lore bc im a lore nut. All of the pirate skins from coa 1 are a crew. Pirate captain, (Leo’s a tier) falls in love with Caged Butterfly, a perfumer a tier (you can still unlock it with a card or past essences). Leo wanted to get a sea snail shell (???) to woo her, said shell is actually an existing b tier accessory. (but that’s not really important ngl) Leo’s obsession with getting Butterfly a gift ends up deterring the pirate crew from their goals, so they decide to do the very reasonable act of throwing Butterfly overboard. That’s why Madame Coral and Caged Butterfly look similar to each other, as she drowned and merged with the coral. Pirate Captain goes mad looking for her, and turns into Golden Sea Monster in the process. That’s it. I think. I got this info from a lore video like a year ago, so take it with a grain of salt. Id recommend looking deeper into coa 1 on your own, the lore is really interesting and this is just a brief summary. why did you read all of this
That's actually pretty cool. I've always thought it Madame Coral and Caged Butterfly was a case of A Tier reskin ala Golden Tentacle/White Tentacle. Did not know it's because it's the same person.
The COA 3 music video will forever have a place in my heart. It was the first COA I ever got to participate in and it’s so nostalgic and gorgeous. I love the lyrics, the instruments and the visuals so much I love COA 3 so much in general it makes me wanna scream of excitement EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I love that you can tell that they slowly get better and better with the animation like seeing the details of the fabric for the dolls and the small scratches on the button eyes it’s just very beautiful
in case no one has mentioned, the offline skins are codes given to those who attend the tournaments in person. also to explain a bit more about coa6 bc that one is a bit confusing, they're filming a sci-fi movie/tv show with andrew and melly as the leads. from what i understood, wu is an alien(?) who likes cheesy sci-fi movies so he went to make his own but it seems like it wasn't as fulfilling as he has hoped so he decides to kidnap the entire cast of his show and bring them to witness the whisperer in darkness(the big eyeball thing) to share his devotion to it with them( bc its perfectly logical to show a cosmic horror to your coworkers). somehow melly finds a way to escape(she's like a final girl) and brings a specimen back with her but when she gets back the city she sees is already being destroyed. now here's my theory about what leads into coa7: i think the specimen melly had with her was the feaster. i think when she crashed the specimen escaped and then began to multiply and grow and eventually do far worse damage than what wu had caused. so melly accidentally caused a fungal apocalypse. we support woman's wrongs edit: this is all just a short summary from memory btw and its entirely possible that i might've missed or forgotten something. since coa6 is one of my favorite coas and i remember that one the best, i thought i might share some more context for it! ^^
idk if anyone mentioned this but the tentacles all throughout the coas are specifically related to the abyss, it just so happens feaster also has tentacles :) the abyss is what makes the tentacles seen throughout
YESSS IVE BEEN WAUTING FOR THIS VIDEOOOO!!! 🎉🎉🎉IM SO GLAD YOU DID THIS ❤ THANK YOU!!!! THE SONGS, THEY ARE SO GOOD, IM OBESSESED WITH THE COA4 SONG Fun fact: That dancing music video from COA4, I remember watching it with a straight face 😭🙏
3:30 yeah, in the early idv days it was really common for s-tiers to have a recolored a-tier version. examples: - "[color] tentacle" (Jack) - "[color] cake" (Mind's eye) - Golden candle vs. crystal candle (Soul Weaver) - Goldsmith vs. Punk (Bane) - Golden Future vs. Divine Light (Priestess) - Poseidon's Crown vs. Poseidon (Feaster) - Madame Coral vs. Caged Butterfly (Vera) - others I may have missed 8:50 it slays me that embalmer is in his default while everyone else is dripped out shdhdh 11:20 illusion hall = regular fragments/echo shop ^^ 12:34 yo this is my first time seeing this too whoa!! that's really sick. 13:01 that's the weibo logo, chinese social media site (twitter-esque). i'm scared of getting spam-detected, but the wiki has a page "Official Websites" where the bilibili and weibo (social media) are linked! I'll reply to this comment with the actual links :) CN sites tend to be difficult to navigate bc you often need cn numbers or IDs to use them to the fullest though, so... good luck. (COA 4) 14:13 AHAHAH the voices in coa4 are soooo goofyyyyy (dies from laughter) 19:30 coa4 funnies are still so unfunny to me, i'm crying.... 20:22 the visuals of this one are so sick, but the song just never actually got me hsdjas 21:45 MMD DANCES HELL YEAH SDHHAS- It triggers me so hard that Bane isn't in the middle for the first part hahahaaha (COA5 AKA THE BEST COA - also my first...) 25:18 the subtle change in her expression, AHHH this coa is just SOOO sick and cool, MANNNN 28:50 this song slaps so hard too ;; 31:00 COA 5 funnies are still a little miss, but imo the best ones. 31:38 AHAHAH the way you delivered that made this clip actually funny. 31:46 Something about Forward leaning over with his stupid grin and Luca just sitting down to watch him show off is SO funny, it sends me every time. 33:11 something I love about this dance mv, is that all of them aren't always in sync. there's slight differences to how they do their dance moves and the timing of them, and that's really cool to me www (And Luca checking Patty for the moves at one point is rly cute too) (COA6) 36:00 my only problem with coa6 is that i had no idea what the f was going on. coa5 did such a great job presenting its plot in the trailer imo but here i'm just like. cool, weird monster audience??? we're in space??? THERE'S AN EYE PLANET??? k 37:00 I rly like how when I first saw this I was like "yo the blood looks so fake" and then it's. YEAH. bc it is HSDAJA- Melly is kind of the mc of coa6. So we have Norton coa4, Melly coa6 and Frederick coa7. AOM cast moment, I assume. 39:25 literally a scam, his in-game skin doesn't have the sick tentacles >:( 39:40 ME NEITHER ZEEZ, ME NEITHER 40:02 "whisperer in the darkness theme" references lovecraft. coa4 is shadow out of time (bc it's a timeloop and was referenced in a promo text), coa5 is color out of space, coa6 is whisperer in the dark, but I'm not sure if coa7 references a concrete story.

Here are the links to the websites! Let's see if my comment gets nuked haha - list of websites on the wiki: id5.fandom.com/wiki/Official_Websites - idv weibo (social media): weibo.com/u/6140485374 - idv bilibili (yt/netflix-esque): space.bilibili.com/211005705/
Thank you for bring these back too. It was such a nostalgia, thinking back of the first time I saw all the trailers (I did cry watching coa5 trailer. It was so beautiful😭 AND VICTOR AND WILLIAM💗)
Super happy you reacted to all coas! Ofc my favorite is coa 5 the best one imo, i definitely didn’t spend all my money to get all of the skins. Definitely love these kinds of video of you reacting to stuff! Stay safe Zeez and have wonderful day!
COA V was probably the best COA in my opinion. The theme of it and the video showing the new skins with the song is PERFECT! I also got “Pirate Radio”!!!!
Hey this is pretty late, but there's someone who made an hour plus long video on RUclips titled "the Lore of Call of the Abyss and why it matters" if you want to know more about COA lore. They go pretty in depth with the lore and what happens in each. It sadly only really goes up to COA 5 though.
Zeez this might be interesting to hear but in antiquarians mycology skin it mentions how the she uses mycelia/fungus to benefit humanity using it to create weapons and how "mycelia" is also trying to use humanity or "them" so the reason feaster is there is to control humanity and use them for his benefit same as the humans who are trying to benefit from the mycelia
Its wild to think some IDV players now werent here for COAV. It literally took over the whole fandom by storm, genuinely the Best COA to date in my opinion in terms of story/theming/skins/songs. Maybe im a bit biased because its the first one i was actually involved im but GOD still peak 3yrs later
COA4 is my first and most favorite coa! For me, it gives off the unique and cool theme that has horror underneath. I remember from somewhere that at the end of the story, Norton won the race and escaped the loop in the same shape as he started the race. But other racers (mike, demi, fiona) come back old or weak. Because time had passed outside the loop and they couldn’t win the race against ✌️the call of abyss✌️ (who is bane for this coa) so the abyss consumed their life force or something
Its so funny seeing feaster in the coa trailer look all badass and huge and in game is one of the shorter hunters and his tentacles rarely hit if you know how to avoid them, I think mr feast should be bigger for fear factor at least
I have so much to say about this vid but ugh I’ll just stay on one topic but I remember the nostalgic feeling of seeing coa 4 trailer and ughhhh I miss Idv back then so much. I genuinely wish it was an experience I could share with you. It’s just so nostalgic and reminds me of how Idv was. I was there for coa 5 because I took a really long break from Idv which really made me sad…I really wish I could’ve there. In conclusion…Idv was at its peak in 20-22 🗣🗣
i wish they dropped more lore on coa 6 bc im very biased towards it, but im pretty sure the plot is bi'an (white guard) is trying to mind control the survs so he can somehow reconnect/reunite with wujiu (black guard) im still super unsure but there is definitely some mind corruption and trickery
I still remember getting Jack's coa skin in ten pull and getting pissed bc i wanted merc's or mind's eye. Still upset about it to this day bc why an s tier i never wanted 😭 Also to clear up confusion about coa lore (i was too dw), here's a video that has a pretty good explanation for each one and how they connect together as whole ruclips.net/video/eNR8MKs2wI8/видео.htmlsi=MQz5wnMlpfFk-Dan
The fact that i was on idv when coaV started but i didn't know how to participate in coa matches and i just didn't get the free sutff=))) (neither something from essence :) )
Do you know when the coa 7 essence ends? cause i really love all the skins and im 15 pulls away from guarenteed A tier and dont want to spend unless it ends in a couple days
I'm so sad Coa 1 & 2 aren't coming back anymore cause I really want some skins from them. Like come on man- pirates and steampunk?! That's so frigging cool! 😭
Coa 1 & 2 are limited skins, NetEase made Coa a limited special before deciding to turn them into a yearly returning essence starting Coa 3. Due to certain regulations, they cannot revert this change so Coa 1 & 2 are unavailable.
I'm disappointed because I joined this game a few years ago it was SO different and the starting story was the detective guy looking through the house instead of journalist, but I stopped playing after the tutorial because me and my sibling didn't think the game had potential 😅 I though the only playable character was the tutorial guy and team games back then intimidated me because I wasn't that good of a gamer back then 😂
I'll do some of the translation 😅 might take a while, but I'll reply to this comment

Just a little thing but at 34:52 you can see Luca looking over to Patty to see if he's doing the right moves, I tought it was silly ❤
36:50 Zeez screaming for Melly was literally so real omg
31:37 "Ha I'm so cool" The way you said it out of nowhere
The COA 3 music video will forever have a place in my heart. It was the first COA I ever got to participate in and it’s so nostalgic and gorgeous. I love the lyrics, the instruments and the visuals so much I love COA 3 so much in general it makes me wanna scream of excitement EEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
I love that you can tell that they slowly get better and better with the animation like seeing the details of the fabric for the dolls and the small scratches on the button eyes it’s just very beautiful
When COA 4 video dropped, it was almost like something shifted in the fandom
i vividly remember the absolute hype when the music video dropped. i miss it😭
in case no one has mentioned, the offline skins are codes given to those who attend the tournaments in person.
also to explain a bit more about coa6 bc that one is a bit confusing, they're filming a sci-fi movie/tv show with andrew and melly as the leads. from what i understood, wu is an alien(?) who likes cheesy sci-fi movies so he went to make his own but it seems like it wasn't as fulfilling as he has hoped so he decides to kidnap the entire cast of his show and bring them to witness the whisperer in darkness(the big eyeball thing) to share his devotion to it with them( bc its perfectly logical to show a cosmic horror to your coworkers). somehow melly finds a way to escape(she's like a final girl) and brings a specimen back with her but when she gets back the city she sees is already being destroyed.

zeez. the abyss is calling... you are next.
I’ve been waiting so long for the horror of watching melly get torn in half
Looking through COA 4 and 5 stuff is such nostalgia for me. I still remember desperately pulling for Pirate Radio and getting absolutely nothing.
idk if anyone mentioned this but the tentacles all throughout the coas are specifically related to the abyss, it just so happens feaster also has tentacles :) the abyss is what makes the tentacles seen throughout
nothing will ever compare to how the COA 5 trailer made me feel when i first saw it, literally the best trailer i ever laid my eyes on
OMG IVE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU TO DO THIS FOR SO LONG YAYYYY 😍 DO ESSENCE TRAILERS NEXT
YESSS IVE BEEN WAUTING FOR THIS VIDEOOOO!!! 🎉🎉🎉IM SO GLAD YOU DID THIS ❤ THANK YOU!!!! THE SONGS, THEY ARE SO GOOD, IM OBESSESED WITH THE COA4 SONG
Fun fact: That dancing music video from COA4, I remember watching it with a straight face 😭🙏
Fun fact we didn’t start getting Free A tier COA skins until COA 5 (Geisha’s COA) so before that the 5th A tiers were available via the shop
6:15 Jack secret main is talking!!
11:22 bro doesn’t know what the shop is called😭
Coa 4 was actually such a vivid memory for me. I remember becoming so obsessed with the trailer, good times :,)
3:30 yeah, in the early idv days it was really common for s-tiers to have a recolored a-tier version. examples:
- "[color] tentacle" (Jack)
- "[color] cake" (Mind's eye)
- Golden candle vs. crystal candle (Soul Weaver)
- Goldsmith vs. Punk (Bane)
- Golden Future vs. Divine Light (Priestess)
- Poseidon's Crown vs. Poseidon (Feaster)
- Madame Coral vs. Caged Butterfly (Vera)
- others I may have missed
8:50 it slays me that embalmer is in his default while everyone else is dripped out shdhdh
11:20 illusion hall = regular fragments/echo shop ^^
12:34 yo this is my first time seeing this too whoa!! that's really sick.
13:01 that's the weibo logo, chinese social media site (twitter-esque). i'm scared of getting spam-detected, but the wiki has a page "Official Websites" where the bilibili and weibo (social media) are linked! I'll reply to this comment with the actual links :)
CN sites tend to be difficult to navigate bc you often need cn numbers or IDs to use them to the fullest though, so... good luck.
(COA 4)
14:13 AHAHAH the voices in coa4 are soooo goofyyyyy (dies from laughter)
19:30 coa4 funnies are still so unfunny to me, i'm crying....
20:22 the visuals of this one are so sick, but the song just never actually got me hsdjas
21:45 MMD DANCES HELL YEAH SDHHAS-
It triggers me so hard that Bane isn't in the middle for the first part hahahaaha
(COA5 AKA THE BEST COA - also my first...)
25:18 the subtle change in her expression, AHHH this coa is just SOOO sick and cool, MANNNN
28:50 this song slaps so hard too ;;
31:00 COA 5 funnies are still a little miss, but imo the best ones.
31:38 AHAHAH the way you delivered that made this clip actually funny.
31:46 Something about Forward leaning over with his stupid grin and Luca just sitting down to watch him show off is SO funny, it sends me every time.
33:11 something I love about this dance mv, is that all of them aren't always in sync. there's slight differences to how they do their dance moves and the timing of them, and that's really cool to me www
(And Luca checking Patty for the moves at one point is rly cute too)
(COA6)
36:00 my only problem with coa6 is that i had no idea what the f was going on. coa5 did such a great job presenting its plot in the trailer imo but here i'm just like. cool, weird monster audience??? we're in space??? THERE'S AN EYE PLANET??? k
37:00 I rly like how when I first saw this I was like "yo the blood looks so fake" and then it's. YEAH. bc it is HSDAJA-
Melly is kind of the mc of coa6. So we have Norton coa4, Melly coa6 and Frederick coa7. AOM cast moment, I assume.
39:25 literally a scam, his in-game skin doesn't have the sick tentacles >:(
39:40 ME NEITHER ZEEZ, ME NEITHER
40:02 "whisperer in the darkness theme" references lovecraft. coa4 is shadow out of time (bc it's a timeloop and was referenced in a promo text), coa5 is color out of space, coa6 is whisperer in the dark, but I'm not sure if coa7 references a concrete story.
And funfact, the priestess SS-tier was actually tying into the COA at the time as well, kind of, since it also references Yog-Sothoth.
42:00 melly'S SUCH A NERD. and we know this is canon bc of her latest letter, that's so cool. she loves her research

Kinda hoping to see you react to the honkai star rail character trailers
Even if he does he'll have to create a seperate channel for it but that's only if he gets into the game
@@_INXUBUS point made
IVE BEEN SUMMONED OUT THE BASMENT
OMG YOU REACTED TO THEM!!! LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOO
I love COA bro I'm so glad you made this video
Thank you for bring these back too. It was such a nostalgia, thinking back of the first time I saw all the trailers (I did cry watching coa5 trailer. It was so beautiful😭 AND VICTOR AND WILLIAM💗)

EARLYYY! I LOVE YOUR VIDS ZEEZ!
COA V was probably the best COA in my opinion. The theme of it and the video showing the new skins with the song is PERFECT! I also got “Pirate Radio”!!!!
My favorite coa essences was probably geisha, wu chang, and feaster's even tho I didn't participate in the geisha one. I do want her s skin tho
Hey this is pretty late, but there's someone who made an hour plus long video on RUclips titled "the Lore of Call of the Abyss and why it matters" if you want to know more about COA lore. They go pretty in depth with the lore and what happens in each. It sadly only really goes up to COA 5 though.
coa v was actually unmatched, i love it so much
coa 4 being my first coa was so unforgettable, overdrive to this day is my favorite idv song

Illusion hall is the name of the normal shop
21:46 daddy bane dancing 😍😍😍
It seems like Hastur the feaster is in almost all of em ,but he is just shy lol
He has been planning this from very beginning ahaha
15:14 MIKE GAMING!!!!!!! YAYYYYY 🎉🎉
I can't wait to them to drop COA7 character videos... i need more luchino time on screen. Im so excited hehe
COA 4 IS SO INTENSE AND DRAMATIC THAT IT IS SO FUN TO ME
COA 2's trailer with it's winter and steampunk vibe is making me think of the game Frostpunk. And funnily enough both games came out April of 2018.
I remember being SO hyped when COA 4 dropped (especially bc Mike was in it)
I remember COA 4 HARD! Its was the covid online days...
SO YOUR GONNA WATCH ALL THE PAST SEASON ESSENCES+ BACKGROUND STORIES FROM PREVIOUS SEASONS??
Its so funny seeing feaster in the coa trailer look all badass and huge and in game is one of the shorter hunters and his tentacles rarely hit if you know how to avoid them, I think mr feast should be bigger for fear factor at least
I was in the middle of hunter rank, but ZEEZ C A L L S XD
It feels so weird to wake up at 7 am and see zeez streaming😭
I have so much to say about this vid but ugh I’ll just stay on one topic but I remember the nostalgic feeling of seeing coa 4 trailer and ughhhh I miss Idv back then so much. I genuinely wish it was an experience I could share with you. It’s just so nostalgic and reminds me of how Idv was. I was there for coa 5 because I took a really long break from Idv which really made me sad…I really wish I could’ve there. In conclusion…Idv was at its peak in 20-22 🗣🗣
GOSH, I’M IN LOVE WITH COA 2…
COA4 MY BELOVEDED!
i wish they dropped more lore on coa 6 bc im very biased towards it, but im pretty sure the plot is bi'an (white guard) is trying to mind control the survs so he can somehow reconnect/reunite with wujiu (black guard) im still super unsure but there is definitely some mind corruption and trickery
Hii Zeez!! I LOVE UR VIDS
Also looking back, you reminded me of how scary the game used to try to be vs now where they don't even care for the fear factor anymore 😂
the site in the coa 3 vid is called weibo, the same name as the team called weibo gaming lol
12:48
it is in chinese tho so you'll probably have some dificulties navigating. not even sure if you can access it without downloading it.
@@bluberi6547 you can its just very limited
zeez you would have CARRIED 2021 idv
YAY COA LORE
I sat here for 50:57 mins watching your reaction while forgetting about the food I made and now it’s cold 😭
Coa 4 was the most hype for me fr I loved it
Can you also react to best performance mv ?
COA4 music video is so Wild Side coded
READ THE COA LORE PLEASE.. ITS SO GOOD
15:22 MIKEEEE NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I still remember getting Jack's coa skin in ten pull and getting pissed bc i wanted merc's or mind's eye. Still upset about it to this day bc why an s tier i never wanted 😭
Also to clear up confusion about coa lore (i was too dw), here's a video that has a pretty good explanation for each one and how they connect together as whole

LET’S GOOOOO
The fact that i was on idv when coaV started but i didn't know how to participate in coa matches and i just didn't get the free sutff=))) (neither something from essence :) )

Coa 5 and 6 are definetly the best ones 💔😭
14:28 BANE COA BANE COA BANE COA YESSS THE BEST COA EVER 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

COA V was the best coa and im so happy i actuly got Geisha when Coa V came out
COA 5 IS HYPE ❤
Hooray!
coa 4 mv sounds like beastars
COA IS SO FUN YAY :))))
U can react to all characters gameplay trailer ^.^
Do you know when the coa 7 essence ends? cause i really love all the skins and im 15 pulls away from guarenteed A tier and dont want to spend unless it ends in a couple days
I believe the season ends either March 21st or March 31st. I'm not 100% since there have been different translations.
alright, as long as its not tomorrow then i dont have to spend. Thanks!@@ZeezVovGeeV
Why
I'm so sad Coa 1 & 2 aren't coming back anymore cause I really want some skins from them. Like come on man- pirates and steampunk?! That's so frigging cool! 😭
Zeez ohhh
TECHNICAL ADVISER MENTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
technical adviser is one of the best B tiers ever created and i will stand by this until i die
Please watch the truth and interference lore next melly/datura is a part of it btw
HOW DID YOU HAD THE SAME IDEA AS ME, I KNOW WHERE YOU LIVE
Coa 1 And 2 Why not have return? When 3-7 is come back every year ?
Coa 1 & 2 are limited skins, NetEase made Coa a limited special before deciding to turn them into a yearly returning essence starting Coa 3. Due to certain regulations, they cannot revert this change so Coa 1 & 2 are unavailable.
@ thankyou for answer❤️
We're getting out of coa with this one
4:59 BANE BANE BANE BANE BANE BANE BANE BANE BANE BANE BANE BANE 😍😍😍😍😍
I'm disappointed because I joined this game a few years ago it was SO different and the starting story was the detective guy looking through the house instead of journalist, but I stopped playing after the tutorial because me and my sibling didn't think the game had potential 😅 I though the only playable character was the tutorial guy and team games back then intimidated me because I wasn't that good of a gamer back then 😂
Moral of the story don't base a game on how it looks when it first starts off. That was my biggest mistake 😂
wowee
Bro changed the title
HEY
