Realism Option

BigBadPiggy

This could be an option in the settings that the player can turn OFF and ON if they want.

Realism (More like "Hard Mode")

Survivors:
Survivor can not perceive the red stain.
Survivor can not perceive killer's terror radius. (Freddy's lullaby, chainsaws, Huntress' humming and other killer sounds will still be heard)
Survivor camera will be switched to 1st person.
Survivor will be unable to perceive aura of hooked/downed survivor.

Killers:
Killer will be unable to perceive scratch marks.
Killer will be unable to perceive aura of generators. (Perks that affect gen auras will still work but only on the gens they are affecting)
Killer will be unable to perceive hook auras.
Killer will be unable to perceive the auras of the door levers.

These options would not affect any other players.

Devs, please add something like this in. It would add some spice and challenge (Maybe some horror for the survivors) and would add a whole new way of play to a game that has become tedious and at times, unfun.

DbD is built around survivors having third person perspective. Having 1st person as survivor absolutely breaks DbD imo.
I see no reason to use this as killer or survivor to handicap myself while the other players can play normally. And even of its a game mode where everyone uses this, I can't see this getting popular tbh

But I agree that we need something new, it's getting boring

In realism mode David can beat the **** out of Amanda or the Legion.

That's why it would be an option for the player, It would change things up. Imagine walking around a corner and running straight into a Michael. I guarantee you'd ######### youself.

Realism? I guess Nurse can't blink through objects anymore, Wraith can't go invisible, and Spirit can't shift.

Sounds like a good idea 🙄

I would add two additional changes.

1. Unhooking a survivor does not notify the killer.
2. Unhooked survivors are in a downed state and need to be healed back into injured state, unless the unhooker uses Borrowed Time or the hooked survivor uses Deliverance. In those cases, the Deep Wounds effect triggers immediately upon unhooking.

If it was possible I would love first person view but is has already been discussed, it is not for this game.

My most fun matches were against tinkerer bug no heartbeat billies. Your other options are cool too but I really want to see this no heartbeat/scratch mark mode.

The first idea is pretty good. But the second one doesnt fit because I dont want them to change the core mechanics of the game.

Realism mode - Wraith can't cloak, Nurse can't blink or float, Hag can't teleport, Doctor isn't a walking fuse box, Huntress needs a more convenient way to carry dem hatchets, Freddy doesn't exist, Clown needs to spend an hour making a bottle of gas, Spirit doesn't exist, and Legion plays all at once.

Freddy is a fragment of the Survivor's imagination. Whenever the killer approaches them, they injure themselves.

Great, now I can't get that image out of my head, where 4 David's beat the killer up.
You came to the wrong neighborhood mf!

Don’t let someone size fool you.

What if we actually have these sort of things in rl, you just have yet to experience it.
