This patch is an odd mix of awesome and horrifying
So after playing the patch for a while I decided I should give my thoughts on all that has come of it..the archives and the rift are lovely..the archives especially since I do love a good story (inb4 next killer is officially named the alchemist) the update to the graphics and frames is lovely..the maps are more atmospheric as well which is a lovely bonus..
But this patch also came with some worrisome events..the nurses nerf was exaggerated even further before release which as a console player feels quite poor, the better frames are the only reason she feels somewhat like she did..and hopefully it gets toned down a little..because maps like Hawkins are borderline unplayable in her current state.
Detectives hunch was also buffed this patch by making the reveal happen every time a gen is completed and the duration of the reveal was doubled..while I have enjoyed this perk immensely it is a problem..because once people realize how strong it is totems will be all but extinct..which they were underpowered as it is...new totem placements will mean nothing
Then there is the spirit announcement..the worst of it all..now some who dont like her will be like "it wont be so bad" or those whom are more rude and frankly short sighted will say "Lul your mad your crutch is getting nerfed get gud"..but let's be honest with ourselves..this is an issue because that means the two biggest hedges against a return to the dark times will be weakened..meanwhile survivors are planned to be elevated..this is setting sail in uncharted waters without your anchors. And I truley believe we will see a large drop in killer players and a huge spike in cue times in the near future..because it is seeming that the only way the devs listen is to dc..violating the rules without penalty to get your way..which alone spells bad news for this games future..The devs will deny it but..the results say otherwise..
