Devs should not be afraid of making OP perks, they can nerf them after the PTB's
The current killer perk combo Undying + Ruin is so boring in many ways, we need a changed meta asap (at least imo). I believe the devs shouldn't be afraid of making too powerful perks, cause if they are too OP in the PTBs, they can just nerf them after receiving the community's feedback.
What are your thoughts on this?

Remember Hangman's trick? They did try to make a new perk that's powerful in the PTB, it gave 16m of aura reading around any hook. Yes, it was busted, but then in the live build they went and completely overnerfed it and it's now back in the ever-increasing pile of trash. They got our feedback and went way overboard, and they've done this so many times that I actually want perks to be underpowered in the PTB and on release because that means they at least have a chance of becoming decent later on.
And also reminder that they thought gearhead and coup de grace were too powerful in the PTB and they needed a nerf before they came to live...
Yeah we will never understand these people haha
I find Ruin + Undying fun to verse.
I do agree, but they're afraid to take action. If they make a second ds, killer mains will rage. If they make a second noed, the survivor main will rage.
So they make mediocre perks that make no one rage, at least imo. Ruin/undying was their latest fail since it is unfair for the survivor side, and guess who's raging.
They already did that with coup de grâce ;)
Yeah they pretty much nerfed it to the ground, it would maybe be meta if they would have kept it the way it was and not change it.
