Why did you quit DBD
To be perfectly honest, once I started interacting with the facebook groups is when I noticed just how one sided the community is. I got kicked from three groups just for making memes that mocked survivors and their toxic habits. That really just confirmed for me that the community was survivor heavy and more toxic than described. I still have a picture that complied with the "no names in screenshots" rules that got denied because apparently there were names despite me blatantly cropping themnout. That's when I knew survivor mains ran the entire Dbd community.
I had some good times but no where near enough to keep me playing the game. I got to rank 13 survivor in less than a day, another point of contention. I was winning match after match after match as a survivor with little to no perks. It's when it dawned on me that killers are truly at every disadvantage within the game. Looping came quick to me, pallets were abundant when I needed them, skill checks were mundane and nearly consistent. I knew that once I had some teachable perks under my belt that the game would be a cake walk. I had another "a-ha!" Moment when I had that thought. So many survivors able to blind me so long, narrowly escape a lunge, bring themselves up from a dying state, and any number of crazy abilities that did nothing but frustrate me as a killer. Survivors inherently, even without perks, can absolutely run the table on even a red rank killer.
I could list for days why this is the abject truth, but instead I'll have survivor mains retort with any number of insults, challenges, and overall cognitive dissonance regarding their upper niche within the community. To those that feel the need to be toxic in the responses to this post, denying established fact.
I'm just going to delete the game and wait until a week after ragnarok for the devs to finally balance what's broken.

Do if hillbilly is the only killer you see these days, why do I keep seeing Clowns, Huntresses, Legions (played against 3 today), and Trappers?
I play killer too and I don’t think it’s a boring M1 game. You are entitled to think that but kinda seems pointless to say when your presence still remains here. Like could you imagine telling your friends “Yeah I quit that boring game but I still frequent the forums to post things.”
I would take it with a grain of salt at that point. Because obviously something keeps you coming back.
I mean with only killer: Killers who can be actual really strong and dominate matches were other killers would have not been aible to and are on top of that killers that really feel unique, because they are of their game mechanics.
In dbd is not every killer on the same stage of the pyramid - not surprising by the mass of killers that exist in dbd.
As we all know - some survivors hate it strongly to get challenged by them. While others enjoy it. I think both is right and for both should it give a place.
And yes, I keep coming back. Checking for possible bugfixes, balance changes and maybe if dbd starts to walk in the right direction. Really necessary for me is just at the moment a bugfix, I wait for - as also said already before.
I'm ONLY here in forum to wait for fix ALL the terrible problem and balance patch from updates and news
Just me talking to this game doesn't make me want to touch my wallets at all. Heck, i didn't open DbD for 2 weeks now
i quit the game ages ago because the math didnt add up between how long it took a killer to chase, hook and kill survivors, contra how fast it was for survivors to do gens.
the ball was never on the killers side, it was never the killer, that dictated the game. it was directly unfair.
Ive come back like a week ago and i see the game, at that point, hasnt changed. i will keep playing for a while now, though.
probably untill i get too frustrated with the gen rush and loops as i was before.
Since you like to preach stats a whole bunch and say the staffs are correct, Nurse is the weakest killer in the game, right? If you don't believe that then why? You believe the kill rates at 70+% so why not believe the nurse kill rates?
If you're going to say because a lot of babies play nurse then ding ding ding! The amount of boosted survivors scattered across the board inflate kill rates heavily, the amount of time I only had a 2k at end game and then went to a 4k due to over altruistic survivors is unreal.
Besides with the Ruin nerf I'm going to assume that the kill rates will have dropped.
Nurse isn't easy mode. She's challenging and takes a lot of skill to even preform mediocre.
Sure I could switch to Freddy again but as much as I love trap killers (including Hag but she's too easily countered by SWF) I like teleporting more. And his teleport never really vibed with me. If it worked on completed generators and was a more fluid ability I might have switched but they focused more on his traps so... :(
Legit I miss stacking 4 purple fog potions and then it is a trapper or hag
90% of the community is toxic across the board (social media, forums, in game/post game)
To many nerfs.
Que times on ps4 are insane due to lack of killers.
Awful balance.
Seems like the devs care more about selling battle passes and cosmetics rather then devote more time on bug fixes.
Why did I quit DbD?
Broken matchmaking for one. And the current break is not the first time it happened in 2019, either. Only this one has now carried into 2020.
For two, a complete and utter lack of confidence in the DbD development team.
I DON'T. Don't get me wrong, for Hag and Trapper that thicker fog was an amazing advantage, but for all other killers, it was a nightmare! I also don't miss survivors stacking 4 "New Moon Bouquet's" and picking the darkest cosmetics for Claudette. Tru3Talent illustrates that point vividly here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YrnCDTcn_c4&Killer Players have had to put up with this kind of BS for so long, that the recent updates have been a breath of fresh air in comparison (yes, even the nerfs to Nurse and spirit)... mainly because of what the devs have done to balance things in the killers favor without going too far in the past year and a half. There have been a plethora of truly awful times in the past for this game, for both sides (mostly the killers though) wherein if a player complained by saying that they were gonna quit because of how unfair their role was, I literally couldn't blame them, nor would I try to dissuade them from their decision. Now however, this game is so much more balanced for both sides, and that makes the game much more enjoyable than it has ever been in the past. A bright future is ahead for this game... here's hoping that the devs stick to it and don't forsake us in a decision to move on to a new project.
I specifically said I liked when it screwed us
New moons and dark skins I've never used
I quit DBD, because BHVR has changed the game too much to the survivors advantage.
I am a survivor main and I miss the time when I feared the killer, but how they have nerfed the killer in general to a boring state the past 6 months is just a bad game design.
Its bad if the killer stacks slow down perks to slow down the survivors, but it's ok for survivors to stack protection perks and items to slow down the killer?
4 years of DBD has come to an end.
