Repressed memory unlocked.
mmmmm....
I like my idea better
it on YouTube if you wanna open up those repressed memories even more
who dat?
Something completely unrelated to horror, it's Soundwave. But honestly I think the shape and color tone could work for a killer in dbd
As long as they dirty it up a bit and add some blood it could work as a golem type thing or a robot killer
make it look like they used super speed and hit someone like a bug on a windshield
That could work. I mean he is an agile and sharp-featured character. Blood, dirty, and then rust around a couple of the edges.
I have no doubt there will be at least one robot or robotish character before dbd finishes
I wanna see killers that break the FPS idea. Give us something third person, Top down or something. A possessor of sorts that can run the trial like a puppet show. In the same vein as that evil dead game.
It'll probably end up being terminator
and if they don't do something that's futuristic it could be a construct which are ancient robots, usually in the fantasy genre.
I feel like Terminator while technically horror. really aint feel like horror 2 me. would rather them do something like you suggested "Ancient technology" like a robot based off a god or something like those wild Ancient Egypt alien theories.
Speaking of gods... I want a (made-up) god Killer or god Survivor. Or demigod character. I know that DBD said that they want to stay away from stuff like IRL religions and stuff like that, which is fine, but then they can just... make up some fictional gods then, right? Other games do it all the time in their stories.
Yeah unfortunately that means we wont get The nun as a killer but. a demigod would be fantastic tbh something that the entity can barely control
Well I don't really consider terminator horror either, but I also don't really consider slasher films scary. I consider them horror but they don't really scare me (I know I'm starting a flame war by saying that but I'll take it)
But yeah I agree. I would prefer a more ancient robot and when it comes to aliens, Xenomorph would actually probably be the best option for an extraterrestrial.
or killer klowns lol
I mean the Nun was probably off the table to begin with considering the "Based on the True Story" I know TCM is as well but I feel like the first 2 conjuring movies were more accurate to the irl events than TCM who was more based on just a single person as far as I know.
I'm not a mythology expert, but I have read Percy Jackson and know a bit about the concept of demigods and gods in some religions. They can very easily go for demigod characters, those could be easily controlled by the Entity. They tend to have like... one or two powers and nothing else, right?
God characters are fine too if they only specialize in one thing like Greek gods. If we used Greek mythology for definitions, you could have a minor god be taken by the Entity easily. And major gods could still be controlled.
The only problem is demigod/god Survivors... if they have literal powers, it'd be hard to put them into teachables.
... Then again, Mikaela Reid exists...
Unless they're fine with giving demigod/god Survivors unique powers via special perks unique to them for lore reasons, but I'm pretty sure this community is heavily against this idea.
... Actually, if we're continuing with this idea, demigod/god Killers could still have this same concept (perks unique to them) that relate to their abilities while their Killer power is something else... but I'm not sure if BHVR is willing to put that much effort into something non-licensed.
They could very easily give them unique "powers" as perks.
like boons and flashbangs.
The survivor should have all 3 perks do something different with gameplay. Any Means, Flashbang, blast mine, deception, Diversion.
Like a smokebomb or something
I really like these types of perks that make the gameplay feel very different if used correctly
