What licenses do you NOT want in the game?
This may be an unpopular opinion but I'm not crazy about fnaf. The initial hype for this started when I was in elementary/middle school, so I think I just associate it with children, though I know adults play it and it has mature themes. I only played the first two so I don't have much of a personal connection to it. I don't hate the idea of a kid's pizzeria map, there's just way more iconic licenses to get to before this imo.

I think this topic came up in another thread a couple weeks ago, but off the top of my head some licenses I'd be ok not having in the game might be
I want all of them honestly, i don't care which license they are bringing. I don't mind them.
But original chapters are usually lame, at least the last original killers were so lame and boring. Dredge, Trickster, Twins, Artist... Licensed killers are more fun.
A lot. Most of the licenses I'm sure that could get gotten would just be generic regular people or just gimmicky.
FNAF. Such a cringe
Nothing from the new Fnaf timeline(The VR game and onwards), the quality of the series took a sharp decline after UCN, it went from a horror series that everyone of any age could enjoy, to full on kid horror crap, even if we did get a Fnaf chapter based around the old games, I know they would fumble the writing terribly so I just don't want to see Fnaf ever.
Anything non-horror related, i'm fine with colabs but not full chapters.
This. I don't like to gatekeep but it's like action characters get added as guest characters to games all the time, dbd is the first and only thing to do that with horror characters. Horror fans are what's paying the bills here, It's a bit of a slap in the face
I wouldn't like FNaF either.
I just don't think it fits into this game at all. Just imagine Springtrap (or whatever other Animatronic) running around the map, getting stunned by pallets and hooking people on meathooks - that is just so extremely far off anything FNaF related. This game could never capture the essence of what makes FNaF FNaF.
no more RE please, just attracts sweats and tryhards nemesis and weaker players r the worst
Anyone who won't like FNAF is asking to be upset in the future. xD Just sayin.
Toy Story
FNAF.
Anything that's not really horror or horror-inspired.
I know I'll get heat for this but FNAF and Xenomorph. The xenomorph is not scary at all. Let's face it Aliens was a sci-fi not horror.
I'm fine with any horror license honestly.
For non-horror licenses, I don't mind if there are collab cosmetics. I personally don't really want to see an entire chapter around a non-horror license.
Non-Horror licenses.
FNAF, Any remake of classic horror movies (the bad ones, anyway).
I'd be fine with most things, but -despite many liking it - I can't see the appeal in Chucky. It doesn't feel like it would work, having a little doll running after survivors. It would feel stranger than having a non-horror licence, because it's just comical.
Not saying I'd throw a fit (for all I know, were he added he'd probably surprise me), but it just doesn't appeal to me.
FNAF and Jeepers Creepers. Both related to their creators, for very different reasons.
Though there's also more reasons to it than just that.
I'm fine with any license for cosmetics, honestly.
If they were to ever do a chapter for something like For Honor, Fortnite, etc. though, it'd be the first chapter I didn't purchase.
FNAF, story is absolutely ridiculous to me and the gameplay is basically the same thing between every game…but alittle different that way you can’t tell its the same thing as before
Security Breach solved this problem but still I don’t like the whole concept more because aren’t almost every animatronic controlled by a child’s spirit as well? The entirety of FNAF messes with me morally and the story is way to convoluted
Hell who would even be the survivor? I sure as hell am not motivated to play a security guard and if its just killer, how would they even attack as almost all the games the animatronics attack by screaming loudly at you, I just don’t get it, Pyramid Head gets a pass in DBD power wise as his power may not exist in game but is powered by silent hill instead in a way, you can’t just say “this childs spirit gave the robot powers”
It would be a solo chapter like Hellraiser and leatherface one killer
Even still, I just don’t like FNAF enough to even want it as a paragraph, no ill-will towards the creator, I just don’t like his game itself so its more of me disliking FNAF as a whole but if a chapter or paragraph was to be made I would probably care less or just be internally upset about having to still wait to see a big daddy in dbd
FNAF. Not because I dislike FNAF, but because I dislike the DBD community.
The last of us the game is cool but won't fit well into dbd and as a pc/ ps exclusive it would make issues for Xbox to use the license
My favorite chaper was re but I guess my 2sd fav is the evil within
I don't know who would make a good killer only 2 come to mind
( spoilers )
Safe boy or the warden I think he's called
Or the photographer and as you would suspect his power would be around photos and probably bending time
Games of Throne
The Boys
Persona /SMT
Bruh the last good game including predator was AvP 2 from 2001. I really really wish this badass hunter was implemented to DBD.
EDIT: LOL my bad. I didn't read what licence I do NOT want. Sorry ^^. In that case I dont wanna see FNAF in DBD
Stepping in with a quick reminder; please keep the discussion civil and on the topic of the thread, and to avoid things that would violate any of the Forum Rules. Thank you!
FNAF
You wouldn't be terrified if you were in a room with a xenomorph? Yeah, right....
FNAF and Jeepers Creepers
Scooby Doo as well, would be okay with skins but otherwise nope.
also there was a small cross over: I don’t want a For Honor chapter. Like.. they would probably create something I would enjoy, but I dont care for that license at all.
Creepypastas in general with one or two exceptions
Most- if not anything superhero related
Jeepers Creepers
Certain Indie horror games such as Poppy Playtime, Bendy and Hello Neighbor just to name a few.
A licensed killer I DO want in the game is the Pale Man from Pan's Labyrinth, since his character pretty much targets the helpless. He is so creepy! I think he would be perfect if the licensing would be possible, which I don't think it would be at this point.
We're talking about a game. Once again that's sci-fi not horror.
Stefano would be quite interesting tbh adding a new mechanic with the time stuff.
The Keeper and Ruvik could be nice additions too.
I need some rest because I could have sworn this said "your mom as a xenomorph".
You and me both I read that the exact same way 😂
FNAF.
It's so cringe. I've never understood how anyone was ever able to take it seriously.
I would LOVE fnaf unlike most people here.
Uh Jeepers Creepers can Stay away...
Pans labyrinth is legit my favorite movie other than RAW. So glad someone brought it up
Bioshock, because we should get System Shock instead. Better game, better killer.
The Walking Dead.
Slenderman.
Everyone seems to want him, but no one knows his story. Therefore, no one seems to realize that it's NOT a killer.
So nothing to do in DBD.
Any license that has nothing to do with horror in any way. DbD is not a horror game, but it's horror-themed, so seeing a character/killer from a random battle game or something would be very disappointing in my opinion.
I'm gonna have an actual hot take and say Jason Vorhees, I just don't think there's anything interesting about them and they wouldn't bring anything new to the game so would be a waste of time.
Well I feel like ruvik would just end up being nurse in some way the other 2 epuld be cool
I said MCU/DC in the previous thread, so I'mma add another.
Sorry Mooks, but I would really not like to see Don't Starve. Purely because I couldn't stand harming any of its characters. Wickerbottom deserves hugs, not meathooks to the shoulder.
I love Pan's Labyrinth! He scared me so much as a kid and I just think it would add some creep factor back into the game.
YES
could being very unique and interesting mechanics as well!
I know.
well, compromise: Maxwell as survivor. He kinda deserves it :) (though generally… nobody really deserves it, and that’s definitely not why I want them in DbD)
@EQWashu why was my comment edited?
Childs play, I can really see why people like chucky I really do, that being said I have some serious issues with him. How can a doll actually physically do anything to anyone, I know it can be boiled down to "Horror logic" but personally a plastic doll that has voodoo was never a character I was ever interested in. At least imo.
