Why not? I think it would be ######### amazing.
Already have a clown? See two chainsaws.
Doesnt fit? See the last like, 4 chapters. (And I LOVE Ash)
Theres no reason not to. Other than opinion. Which doesnt matter or we wouldnt have a ST chapter, as many people said exactly what you just did, about ST.
Because he isn't even scary, or interesting.
No killers weakness should be bravery
I say if it's not The Mangler, we riot.
I wouldn't mind Randall Flagg from The Stand.
Carrie would be AMAZING 😍
also love the idea of that Salem’s Lot vampire/creature! That’s a super creepy concept ^_^
"Generic stranger things..."
You mean what they copied from the original IT or any other horror genre?
The movies were amazing, because they were great remasters/remakes of the classics and books. Could parts have been better? Yes, as with anything.
It wasnt "scary" because I already read and saw the story. It doesnt have to be a new scare to be good.
Freddy knockoff?
Freddy could be in the real world changing shape and killing?
Freddy wasnt LITERALLY a joke filled b movie villain?
Freddy was an ancient otherworldly being that had supernatural and metaphysical powers that humans couldnt even contemplate correctly?
The only things in common are "its fake, if I dont believe or fear it, it wont hurt me."
And even then, freddy needed JASON to get him back to power.
But well go back to your comment about IT copying ST. If ST manages to fit here, so does pennywise.
People said "no ST chapter please" and were bashed for it.
So Pennywise or riot.
Or stabbing yourself to look innocent, but we have ghostface.
Or having people stay sick. Plague
Or losing your power by using it. Legion
Or water. Jason
Killers/horror icons usually have stupid ass weaknesses.
Bravery wasnt his weakness, that's just a simplified way to look at it.
However, is the entity not LITERALLY feeding on fear and hope? Bravery is its weakness too, by your definition and application.
Jason is not in the game
Also big question, where does GhostFace stab himself?
People staying sick hurts them more than helps
Good legions use the power to catch up to the survivor
If you wanted a stupid weakness, look at freddy
Atleast he can recover from his weakness' shown in Freddy V Jason
Maybe the whole twist with Pennywise is that whilst fear is what makes him stronger, to deplete his 'fear power' you have to display certain types of bravery. But by doing so, you put yourself at more risk of being attacked but with less force.
Running from Pennywise would be seen as fear. Hiding from Pennywise would be seen as fear. Failing skill checks and running away would be seen as fear.
Unhooking survivors would be seen as bravery. Staying on a generator after a missed skill check would be seen as bravery. Performing tasks whilst in Pennywise's terror radius would seen as bravery.
The higher survivors' fear levels are, the stronger Pennywise's power is.
Pennywise could use certain items to increase survivors' fear levels. He could leave blood filled red balloons around the map which explode at close proximity .
As Pennywise's power gets higher, the more supernatural traps and visions appear around the map. This could make survivors overall efficiency decrease and have them cry out for help. It could also effect generators, vault windows and lockers.
That was how Krueger and Quentin got here though, Quentin got pissed off and flexed hard enough on Freddy that the Entity brought them both here. Your point?
r/CursedComment much?
Not my fault for directly quoting the devs on their detailed lore, brochacho.
I watched that scene so many times when I was a kid. Nothing beats a good nutshot!
Jack Torrance the killer and Wendy Torrance the survivor??? I'm crying.
Did you not watch scream? Or scream 4?
Ghostface stabs himself to pretend he's a victim
XD I would pay good money just to see that in the game.
its not like stranger things is scary
That’s subjective, but it’s unquestionably a sci-fi horror tv show.
Which Steven King Chapter would you wanna see?
2019 will be remembered as the year of licensed chapters if true lol
That would be 3 of the 4 chapters in the year 4 roadmap licensed.
Even then we still got Stranger Things it doesn't have to be scary it can be anything with a horror theme.
Even Ghost Face is out there taking selfies with Neon Nea
i mean i guess the carrie .
but its not just about scary
bhvr for sure want increase player base by adding famous killers , pennywise might not be scary but it would add a lot fanbase . i didnt find it scary but kinda like the look of the pennywise reboot .
but what i mean is that for example childs play' chucky isnt scary but it would be funny to have him as a killer plus he is last left of the most iconic slasher killers expect jason
yes its not about scary anymore . this game is not scary at all , the bright atmosphere , the pizza boy dwight . the dancer outfit feng , and even survivors arent scared of killers , atleast not the experienced ones :) ,, dbd left horror concept long time ago
It would suck
But hey, at least they're getting more money
Yay
And the Battlepass is coming
Yay...
I'll be happy either way as long as its high quality/cool ideas like ST.
Hopefully better perks though 😂
The game got 3 licensed killers in 4 months back when pig hit. Theyd need a 4th
If you count Ash this will be the 4th
Ash> Ghost> Stranger Things> Stephen King IP
Those 3 in 2017/early 2018 had 5 characters 2 full chapters and LF
in 2019 we are at 5 already Ash, Ghost, Steve, Nancy and Demogorgon.
Ash is considered the last DLC of Year 3. DBD measures years using the original Spring release date of the game.
That said it would not surprise me if all chapters in year 4 are licensed.
Whatever the last one is it must be BIG considering it’s a full chapter with a map.
My guess is Conjuring, Hellraiser, Child’s Play, Alien or Resident Evil.
I don’t get why everyone is against licensed chapters. I think they are cool.
The vast majority of DBD fans love guest chapters. Both the GF and ST trailers made it onto the top 10 trending on YouTube. ST even reached #1 and is the most viewed video on the DBD YouTube channel.
Only a small minority of fans dislike them. These people seem to forget that year 3 was all original chapters besides the mini Ash dlc at the end.
Let us horror fans have are fun with our crazy crossover! This is our Smash Bros now. 😎
@Okapi you said that perfect 👍
Here's Johnny
I would rather have licensed characters...as long as I am familiar with the related franchise. After Stranger Things was annouced for DBD, I sat through all three seasons as I had never watched it.
I wonder if we ever going to get horror animated/cartoon killer?
I would like to see some form of supernatural killer. Something like an angry Quaker judge from the Salem witch trials.
A ghostly wraith that switches between what looks to be a man dressed as a Quaker judge walking around until he gets to chase mode. Then he is a scary looking ghostly version of himself and his lantern turns to a red glowing blade. Make him able to talk/make noise and he screams at the survivor about burning them for their witchcraft.
He could continue with talking for a few seconds after losing a survivor, so as you hide you can still hear him promising agony upon you.
That would be scarier than Pennywise. I'm not against him in the game, but can we have some fun with truly scary killers?
Edit. He gets the first hook mori. One appears as he hits "kill" and it is a special hook. He throws you on it and curses your existence as he lights you on fire. Then your burnt husk falls to the ground.
God dammit there goes my wallet again -.-
Hopefully it's Cujo 🐶
Well It 2 just came out, you can beat your ass that It is comming
I realllllly hope it's Christine @_@
What if the road map is dedicated this year to Licenses is that such a bad thing
######### pennywise, we already have a clown.
I'm talking about their source material and killers in general. Not just this game.
First scream movie. Where Ghostface STARTED. They literally stab themselves to make it look like they were also attacked. "Stop man I'm starting to feel...woooooozy". Like 2 or 3 stabs each into the stomach ffs.
Legion has that workaround use because they changed their power. If you use the power as intended, it's a fault.
Talk about recovering from weaknesses, just because the shell of pennywise is gone, doesnt mean the deadlights (what pennywise WAS/was controlled by) are gone. It spanned multiple books/movies. Which means pennywise could easily come back (although it would need as much bs retcon as freddy's example IMO).
Stop theorizing. New Killer literally is Stephen King.
One time he got hit by a truck. My psychiatrist told me, then she laughed. That is a true story.
We have two chainsaw users.
We have two "ghostly apparitions".
Your point?
Clown is more of a ringmaster than a clown.
Also, how do you make a dream world a mechanic. How do you make stalking a mechanic. Or madness. Or anything else they made work.
It's easily possible.
yep it's possible, dumb but possible
