With how many hours in DBD did you discover this forum?

I only found this forum when i had already played DBD for a while and had roughly 2k hours.

So im curious. Is it normal to play the game a lot and then discover it or is the majority a lot faster?

And while im at it: are you still playing DBD? More or less? I have roughly 4.5k hours now, so it slowed down in the last 5 years.

  • I joined in 2020, I think I had around maybe 1k ish hours at that point since I'd been playing the game since Ghost Face & Ash released.

    I play a lot less than I used to but I think it's better that way, playing this game too much is genuinely bad for you. Especially if you only stick to one role. I appreciate the game a lot more after a break.

    I tend to take my breaks when there's big controversy going on. Like Krasue/Ghoul releases or the aftermath of the Walking Dead chapter.

  • I have an unusual path to DbD. I played it a few times when it released, looked into it a few years later, and both times wasn't interested. I then got into it again when VLDL was doing to comedy sketch on it, watched some play, and thought it looked pretty enjoyable with how things had changed.

    So before I got into playing, I was familiar with the general community so found the forums really early. I even did posts chronicling my takes at certain hour points.

    I was never a constant DbD player. Play it a lot for a few weeks, take a month off to play something else, repeat. The failures of the QoL initiative really put a damper on my desires to play the game and those gaps are getting larger.

  • Started just after Spirit came out, joined the forums shortly after the first rift dropped.

  • Don't know, was on the Steam forums long before this was created. Same boat though, 5k hours and not playing as much as the first 2k.

  • I knew about it for a while, but had no interest in joining since this place had a reputation for trolls and bad opinions. so why bother when reddit exists.

    but here I am.

  • I joined in May 2018, and I started playing Dbd in September 2017, so probably around 800 hours.

    Prolly before I hit a thousand hours.

    Around 1k or so.

    Now i got 2k, mostly on killer.

  • Most likely under 1k, but I am very sure that I was not above 1k hours at all.

  • joined around 2020, i don't remember my hours i had at that point fully but below 1k is a guarantee.

  • 6-700 hours in I think. I joined in 2022, after coming across a weird, tipped-over locker on Garden of Joy.

  • Oooof, probably about 800-1000? Forums came out in May or June of 2018 and I had been playing for about a year. What I do remember is making a cringe ah tier list post when Legion came out and had about 1400 hours at that point.

    what'd you think of Legion at the time?

    I was in my OW phase at the time, but I saw the award show where they debuted Legion and I was like "amogus guy?" they certainly do not play like I woulda thought from that video

    I thought the same as pretty much everyone else at the time, absolute terrible design and with so many flaws. So bad in fact I don't think a single killer has come even close to being as bad as them.

    One very common misconception though is every body thinking they were a disguise killer on release which is simply not the case. By the time the trailer released we had already experienced the PTB a few weeks prior and already knew what they were all about.

  • I started playing when clown was released, forums I only started reading actively when twins got their trailer I had around 1200 hours back then if I remember correctly
