Alright, so be it. I apologize, I was reading posts from extremely aggressive "debaters" in GameFAQ's Politics board and may have taken on some of their mannerisms.
May I ask why do you prefer old DBD, then?
Apology accepted :)
And, to answer your question, I suppose the easiest way to explain it is:
I prefer old DBD because that is the game I fell in love with.
I first started playing DBD in 2018, and as soon as I played my very first match (against a Huntress on Old Azarov's Resting Place) I was instantly hooked!
There was nothing I disliked about that game, with the sole exception of Old Legion. The killers, the survivors, the maps, the visuals, the perks, add-ons, events... Everything was perfect for me, and seeing old videos just made me love them more and more <3
Old DBD is my passion and easily the best game I have ever played. My heart is with that game.
Forever.

This is a discussion forums. If you post an opinion here, I am allowed to respond to it.
I don't understand why you would like infinites and double pallets, which was even worse for old Freddy than he has it now.
You are, but the way you did it just comes off as stand-offish.
If someone enjoys the current DBD, and I would like to discuss about it, I wouldn't just randomly mention them and say:
"Oh? So you like trash perks? You like downgraded maps with worse atmosphere? Un-creative killers? Oh, and what about Boons which have caused nothing but problems?"
That would just be rude and pathetic. I would ask them about their views, try to put myself on their shoes and understand.
Discussions are important, but there are better ways to do it.

Here is mine, I suppose:

Sure, the last bit was my opinion, but saying you like "everything about old DBD" means you like everything I just described.
Which I do.
What does it matter to you? You could, and probably does, have an opinion which I HEAVILY disagree with, but I wouldn't call you out for it because everyone has the right to have their own views about this game.
There is no reason for you to do it.

So you like infinites, no Exhaustion nerfs, double pallets, Spirit and 5 blink Nurse? Oh, and old Freddy that was unhealthy for both sides of the game.
Just about the only thing that is really worthy being missed is the "art style" that they were going for originally that they mentioned with the older Survivors. The "spray" style, or whatever. It's still in perk icons and every icon in DBD.
I would like to see skins that resemble these tbh.
That is your opinion, mate.
I have my own.

I somewhat agree. But the issue with him were his addons. When combined the charge time addons were pretty damn powerful. They overdid it though, by so much.
You know, this reminds me of a story. It is an Old DBD tale, of course, but it is still fresh in my mind.
So there I was, playing Survivor on Old Shelter Woods against an Insta-Saw Billy. Said Billy was easily one of the best killer players I've ever seen: full P3 and extremely aggressive, barely gave us any time to do our objective.
But us Survivors did not back down.
We fought tooth and nail, really gave it our all. One could say that trial was a test of skill, in a way.
In the end, only two of us escaped. A tie, by my standards, but damn it felt like a victory.
At the time it was a victory to be proud of! Now it is a memory from a better time, and one that I hold dear.
-
I see you have a good taste :)
-
Good choice.
With Hag, try not to go too far away from where your main "web" of traps is. With her it is best to "lock down" an area of the map, where your traps are, and hunt Survivors in there.
I've been really out of touch with the game, but I refuse to believe people do not loop anymore. And, if they loop where you have the advantage...
Well, they are meat for the slaughter.

How do I do that when as soon as I hit one of them they just hold W to the other side of the map
Which killer do you play?
-
Do not waste your time chasing a Survivor that you clearly cannot catch.
-
"This is my world. And you can't ever leave."
-
Far more...
-
There is nothing wrong with Freddy's model, though.
-
I prefer a different approach:
-
I did manage to make Self-Care effective on many occasions, but after this nerf....
Not even I can save it...
Self-Care did not deserve to fall from grace like this.

Maybe BHVR will pull a Blizzard in a few years and release
"DBD Classic"
You have no idea how much I would pay for that.

What do you miss about old DBD?
I only started playing this year so I do not know what the game was like before.
Everything.
Except Old Legion.
-
The lack of consideration for older or old fashioned players.
Now, I know, I know... This is a "me" thing, and not something with the game itself, because I have an undying passion for old DBD.
But...
A little bit of consideration for those who prefer the old ways could be nice.
Just a little bit would be better than nothing.

Please don't shoot crows, shoot the survivors, or even walls.
Protect the birbs.
@Gorgonia said:
Sly birds need to be slayed
Would probably shoot a random wall, tbh.
Or a gen.

@fulltonon said:
I mean can't you just throw two hatchets.
I should probably play a single match just to get that.
I think it will start bothering me.

Heyyy I made a difference in someone else's life enough for a shoutout. You're amazing too! ♥
(Also I can't believe that I'm both neighbored, and before Sluzzy on that list.)
No problem, my friend :)
Your comments here are always amazing to read!
@Aneurysm said:
@GoodBoyKaru - mentioned me first, loyalty is always rewarded
@jesterkind - has good opinions (kinda biased because they're often the same opinions as mine but still) also articulates them well
@GeneralV - am much less enthused about certain elements of old dbd but the passion is infectious
@Grandpa_Crack_Pipe - pretty damned funny. In fact the username with the Bill pfp is funny enough, could've made top 10 without ever commenting
@Raccoon - raccoon enthusiasts are best people, raccoons are best animal
@Darkskies - fun pig main, also joined me in spamming killers with firecrackers, good times
@Leachy_Jr - only forum user I've played with/against multiple times, anyone playing trickster on console deserves respect
@Lord_Tony - taught me a valuable lesson about oni and L T walls
Thank you so much!
The passion is infectious, ya say? Well, I hope the "infection" gets strong enough to turn every Forum member, including the devs, into Old DBD enthusiasts!

and I can't think of any others.
Thank you :)

@TheArbiter said:
The problem isn't Nurse, the problem is the type of game DBD has devolved into. Nurse was balanced around old DBD with infinities and tech exploits
No, not exactly.
Nurse was never designed to fight those things directly, because they were useless against her.
She was designed to drive you away from those things and go for a different playstyle, which most people describe as being unpredictable and breaking LOS.
Both of those are still possible in current, downgraded DBD.
-
To this day, I am pretty sure I only played against Artist twice.
-
Ah, I wish I had recorded my trials against 5 blink Nurse.
It would have helped this thread, I am certain of it.

@Huge_Bush said:
Aw, thank you @Phasmamain and @GeneralV for the call outs. I've been having a heavy heart for the last few days and your call outs have helped! I've got a big ole smile on my face. As a reward, here is a picture of my little Rambo sleeping cradled in my arm (I use any excuse to show off my baby):
Ah, how can I not love you?
We both share a passion for the past, and your friendship is one I hold dear! I hope everything gets better for you.
And remember: I'll be always here for ya!

You’re amazing too :)
Not many are willing to stick by their opinions even if they are somewhat unpopular (though I agree with most of them) which is respectable
My favourites are probably @Marigoria, @Huge_Bush,@Tsulan, @Aven_Fallen and @Leachy_Jr
Special shout out to Clown is king who is no longer with us but was an amazing member and fellow clown main (way better than me at him as well)
Thanks, my friend.
I will keep the memory of my beloved Old DBD until this game is nothing but ruins!

@Grandpa_Crack_Pipe @Bwsted @GeneralV @deKlaw_04 and @Tsulan was quite enjoyable to play with even though his takes are pretty bad.
Thank you :)
Not a problem, my friend :)

@DoritoHead said:
Sluzzy, for reasons that should be obvious.
GoodBoyKaru for summarizing dev streams, sarcasm, and cows.
TheGannMan for getting me into Valorant and being nice
GeneralV for his passion for old Freddy and old Dbd in general. He's easy to talk to and understand even if I disagree with him from time to time.
Ayy, thank you for the kind words, my friend!
It is good to have a friend who understands your passions, even if we do not agree on everything.
Thank you!
I know we have many disagreements, but you have always been a good friend to me.
I hope you can say the same about me :)
No problem, dear friend!
You deserve it.
-
Awww, thank you my dear friend!
You're definitely one of my fav Forum members too! We might have a few disagreements here and there, but deep down we are both old players who miss the golden and better days.
There are also other names that immeditately come to mind:
@GoodBoyKaru , @TheGannMan , @Marigoria , @csandman1977 , @Phasmamain , @QwQw , @glitchboi , @WishIcouldmain , @Huge_Bush , @DoritoHead , @HaunterofShadows , @RiskyKara , @Sluzzy , @ReverseVelocity and @Mileena_Kahn .
You guys are amazing <3

The old maps were already perfect for me.
I don't need anything else.

I think it's extremely unlikely too, but then I am reminded about Deathslinger.
Nice to know you'll soften our fall.
I would be happy to help, my friend :)
I really, REALLY don't want anyone else to go through what me and my comrades (Freddy, Billy and Deathslinger mains) went through.
Seeing your favorite character...disappear is terrible and no one deserves that.
-
People really are after Sally's head this time, eh?
I want all Nurse mains out there to know that, in the EXTREMELY unlikely scenario that she ends up getting the Freddy-Billy treatment, I'll be here for ya.
And no friend of mine is ever alone.

-
Mate, I've been disappointed with this game since mid-2019.
Why would this patch be any different?
-
Nope, I don't really care about that.
I just think Nurse is fun to go against. Always has been.
But that is just me.
-
Leave the Nurse alone.
She is fun. Always has been.
-
BHVR has been giving the middle finger to older players since mid-2019.
Nothing new to see here, tbh.

The dopamine kick for accomplishing a feat like that is on another order of magnitude than the dopamine one gets for pre-dropping pallets and Dead-Harding to safety (although the latter may change soon.)
This.

I'm curious to see something, was it you that had the customized backgrounds for killers taken from their lore?
If so, can you post a screenshot of what that stupid effect will look like on customized portraits? I think it's going to create a very ugly effect for anyone who customized those portraits on pc.
I cannot really understand how they looked at that reward and thought "Yeah, that'll do, I'd be happy with that"
Oh...I am afraid that wasn't me, my friend.
But it does sounds like an interesting idea.
-
Yes, it does.
But then again, when it comes to DBD these days, it is hard to find something that doesn't sucks.

@Aneurysm said:
I'm sure people have beaten old 5-blink nurses at some point
So uhhh let's bring it back
Ya know, one time I dodged 4 blinks, only to get hit by the fifth one.
The satisfaction when I managed to dodge all five was... well, hard to find a word that properly explains it.
But it felt good.

We may have to sacrifice some unwilling survivors, but maybe the devs will hear our plea.

Where is that altar?
I have demands.
Several.

Heh, I loved to face those flashlight squads back in the day.
You have no idea how effective Freddy was against them. Can't really blind a killer that you cannot see :)
Also, it is good to see ya, my friend! It has been a while.
