The constant nerfing of exhaustion perks

Don't worry, when Sprint burst gets gutted they'll just move on to Lithe next. Killer main content creators will just move down the list, checking off every exhaustion perk that gets gutted. Once Lithe is gutted, then they will just move on to Balanced Landing. Once Balanced Landing is gone, Overcome will be next. Rinse, repeat. See the pattern? And the crazy part? Most of the complaints about exhaustion perks are coming from streamers with a 95% plus kill rate. If they're not hitting 4ks every match, then survivor perks become "problematic" and "broken". I'm literally seeing killers with 400 game win streaks complaining about survivor perks. "Huh?" The goal is to get every healing and exhaustion perk essentially removed from the game.

The predictable outcome of this strategy is that the solo players are leaving. Increased killer queue times reflect this already. New players are not even going to bother with this game after their 9th or 10th loss in a row. It will be a quick uninstall for sure. Soon enough, killers will have no one else to play against except SWF. This will be their new reality. Solo play won't be worth anyone's time anymore. Regardless of what PVP game you enjoy, no one is going to tolerate losing 80% of the time. I'm not saying the game is going to die, but the future will be killers and SWF only.

PS: Lethal Pursuer still exists. Just saying.

PSS: lol, downvote me all you want. It won't change the trajectory this game is going in. This has already started to happen, whether you like it or not. Inertia has taken over at this point.

  • I am glad sprint burst is getting nerfed, even if it is slightly. Exhaustion perks are very strong, and sprint burst is simply way to good to get a head start.

    The bigger problem is killer balance. Because against most killers I support the change, but for Blight it is not needed.

    The bigger issue is the refusal to address the few killers way to strong as this causes an imbalance for just about everything else.
