I understand you, in a way.
I became a Spirit main in the aftermath of Freddy's stupid rework, but stopped maining her when they removed her collision and gave her a vault animation.
What you are feeling right now might just be the same thing that I felt back then.
-
I never saw anyone get salty because of Tombstone Myers. Quite the opposite, actually.
-
Every single chase is fair, in my honest opinion.
-
I want the old atmosphere. If you consider that "horror" or not, is up to you.
-
There better be!
-
If BHVR doesn't want to bring back the amazing game that DBD once was, then I am willing to do it for them.
-
Which survivor nerfs would you want to be reverted, my friend?

Nope. I do remember the winter solstice menu music though. Was the most nostalgic feeling I have ever had in a game.
We share the same mind, merely a different time.
I started playing during the 2018 Winter Solstice Event, and that theme...
That theme was so freaking good, that it actually sent shivers down my spine. When my nostalgia is higher than usual, which is actually quite a feat, I listen to it immediately:

I dont think the game can return to that state. Were at a point where no matter what BHVR does the community will have a fit about it.
Im almost positive that if Hallowed Blight were to come back, the community would claim that "oh, its just holding mouse 1 again".
Why do I say this? Midnight Grove is not a bad event, its actually pretty solid. Yet people are treating it like its worst than Eternal Blight.
This games downfall will be its own community
No, my friend.
There is still hope:

If they add them back would you level him up?
In a perfect scenario where DBD returned to be the same game that I loved, with another Winter Solstice Event on top of it?
Hell yeah, I would.

Yeah I have a few moonlight offerings that are just sitting in some of my characters inventories and old common and uncommon map offerings. So I know how you feel.
But me having those is also the reason I refuse to prestige Jake, Laurie and Feng. As well as level up Jeff since he has Winter Party Starters and Winter Mystery Boxes in his Web
I refuse to level up my Dwight too because his Bloodweb has a Winter Gift.
I know how it is.

Oh I had them too, but I only had 1 for keeps sake, not much use to play killers through an addon when I owned them lol.
https://forum.deadbydaylight.com/en/discussion/comment/2584492#Comment_2584492
Well I assumed they would last till the maps gone, I understand removing them from the blood webs so you dont keep getting them but just deleting them from inventories is kinda lame
My very last one was lost when I prestiged my Freddy, after they were retired.

Splinters were never deleted, just retired
I know.
I lost my last ones when I prestiged my Freddy, but that was mostly on me.
I got extremely angry that they were retired. Not to mention that no Bloodpoints were given to compensate.
-
This one will be amazing, I am certain of it!

Now you know how I felt when they took my Splinters.

DS is not the same as slugging? Or DS is not the same as it was in 2018?
DS is not the same as slugging: Course not, that's actually good design IMO, different effects.
DS is not the same as it was in 2018: Nostalgia, which can give fond memories of the past, can get corrupted by ignorance of issues we simply ignored from inexperience.
I meant that DS is not the same as it was in 2018.
That perk created some hilarious moments for me.

Well, you can still do the same with slugging.
Because DS is not the same.

Outside of nostalgia, was dribbling DS that great of a feature?
Yes. It avoided the perk completely if done right.

I knew this was possible against flashlights in rare occasion but never thought it would work against DS. We are back to 2018 I guess.
Don't do that. Don't give me hope.

Thank you so match for the interview, my friend. I love this series, and it was a honor for me.
I would also like to thank everyone who took their time to read this interview, and everyone who commented here. You guys are amazing!
Don't forget to support my campaign for a better game:
@GeneralV said:
Give the game to me, BHVR, and I will save it!
Just do it!
You have done quite enough already...let the General take it from here.
Vote GeneralV for Dead by Daylight's owner!
And, as always:
See you in the Fog!

I voted for this option merely because I really love the OG Spirit, and surprisingly it is winning the Poll.

51.Just for those unaware. I think that wraps it all up, but Stranger Things just had their perks made common. And soon they’ll be gone. Did Stranger Things leave a good legacy on DBD and will you miss it?
Yes, I believe it did. And yes, I will miss it.
Demogorgon was not a killer that I really enjoyed going against, nor was Hawkins the most well-designed map in the game. However, it provided us with countless good memories.
It is a tragedy.
Edit: If that was the final question, may I add a closing remark?
-
Not exactly.
I am extremely grateful for the 2018-early 2019 DBD. That was easily the best game I've ever played. I loved literally everything about it.
I am also grateful for the 2016-2017 DBD, despite not having the opportunity to play it.
But current DBD? No.
A thousand times no.
Reworks and unnecessary changes ruined this game bit by bit for me, and that is not something I am grateful for.

50.One solution you’ve proposed to make more interesting killers is rework Freddy. To include elements of Old Freddy and New Freddy. And more and more people are saying current Freddy is weak and some even say weaker then old Freddy. Should the devs rework Freddy again?
Do you even have to ask?
A thousand times yes!

49.Two killers were announced to be getting reworks in the recent Q&A Legion and Ghostface. Legion has the issue of an uninteresting power also weak. And painfully undynamic it’s run and stab. Boring to face and with no chase they’re often critiqued as some of the worst. Same with Ghostface said to be a Myers copy with better stealth but also suffers from no chase potential. Also putting him low tier. How could the devs rework them for more interesting but good powers?
Now, this one is really difficult.
Ghostface could be deleted for all I care, but I think the most reasonable option would be fixing his damn reveal mechanic and leaving him as he is.
As for Legion...not even the Entity knows what to do with those maniacs. BHVR tried time and again to "fix" Legion, and every attempt failed.

48.Some critique has risen over killer power designs become stale. A prime example is Demo, Pyramid, and Nemesis. And too often new killer shave too oppressive 1v1s. What untouched categories could the devs use. Or what killer type should there be more of?
Killers that do not have a secondary attack, sometimes not even a chase power for that matter.
Perhaps a tracker would be nice. Or someone with mobility. A killer similar to Hag and Trapper isn't a bad idea either.
Basically anything that doesn't have an overly-oppressive 1 v 1.

47.There is some speculation about the new killer starting to arise. It seems original. With some speculating a spider or vampire based on some tome teasers. Who do you think it’ll be and what kind of killer should it be set up, anti loop, all around?
Hopefully a spider, since the Oni already has a vampire-ish theme.
And I hope it will be a killer without a chase power, since there are far too many of those.

46.The last killer Nemesis was quite different however. Released as a laggy mess. With a power critiqued as a watered down Pyramid Head and not faithful to the Resident Evil version. As well weak and with a passive 4v1 he doesn’t need to work for and it’s inconsistent. Does Nemesis need changes?
Yes, he does.
Though I have absolutely no idea of what could be done to fix him.

45.I know. We’ll talk about the recent killers and the speculated new one. The Cenobite was the newest killer with largely positive reviews. A power cited not too oppressive. But mostly fun to counter. And makes Hoarder useful. And faithful to the source. NFTS you already discussed with someone here. But some say he still needs some QOL changes. And someone critiqued how he gets 4v1 for free. Does he need more changes?
This is a very difficult question for me.
I never played as or against him, due to me leaving the game before his reveal.
However, judging from what I've read on the Forums, I would say he is in a good spot and doesn't require further changes.

It really was.

44.Your favorite updates the realm beyond was confirmed to resume in the Q&A. What can be done to successfully update the remaining realms all pretty problematic? Without not changing them
That joke was cruel...
Leaving the visuals alone and changing the powerful windows and tiles. Though I would oppose it regardless.

43.A big thing people have seemingly swept under the rug is keys are nerfed there are no more hatch offerings that equal 4 man escapes. Were these good changes?
Yes, but only because Moris got nerfed. Moris and keys are the same, in my book.
If one had to go, so did the other.

The EGC shouldn't exist. That would solve 99ing gates.

42. But wouldn’t it be better to give him something to make him dependent on a crushing 1v1
I don't think so. Deathslinger was just fine before, and it should have been left like that.
No reason to change what isn't broken.

41.What could they give him in compensation?
It would be best to revert the change entirely.
-
Spirit got killed for me the moment they removed her collision and gave her a vault animation. No matter the sheer power, that was the Spirit I loved to play against
This recent nerf merely kicked a dead horse, imho.
-
Technically, BHVR would have to apologize for MANY things.

At the very, very least, Undying reduced the amount of camping and tunneling for most of the community.
Circle of Healing, and cursed may Boon Totems be, is just broken and annoying.

40.The nerf to Deathslinger seems to be hated by everyone, they nerfed his 1v1 and stealth which most said he needed for his weak snowball and mobility. Did the devs mess up this nerf?
Yes, they did.

39.Plague received buffs. After quite annoying to play and underused. Now many saying she is very strong. And with COH could she get her pick rate up and how much stronger is she?
COH could indeed get her pick rate up. I think she is a bit stronger now, but definitely not overpowered level or anything.

38.How should Spirit be properly done?
They could've left Spirit in her original state and it would've been fine by me. Though I guess not many players would share this thought.

37.The Spirit nerfs it seems like the majority of the community likes the changes with the Standstill mind game gone and some add-ons. Some have said this killed Spirit at least in high ranks. Was Spirit wrongly nerfed and dead? Or is she still strong enough?
She is much less interesting now, but I doubt she will lose her position on the highest tiers. At least not immediately, since people still have to get used to her changes.
However, I personally think she was wrongly changed.
I never saw Spirit's sheer strength as a problem. In fact, she quickly became one of my favorite killers to face, back when I first started playing, due to how her power worked back then. Spirit was just...right, for DBD.
She became A LOT less interesting for me when they removed her collision and gave her a vaulting animation. So much so that I stopped maining her when those changes dropped.
This is a very unpopular and personal opinion, but that is how I feel.

36.That’s everything major for perks onto the killer changes first Trapper finally can carry two traps and always spawn with 6. How much have these changes improved trapper and does he need more?
Those changes are good, and tbh should've been there from the very start.
I would like if Trapper got his old trap setting animation back, but that is just pure personal preference.
I think he is in a good spot right now.

Pseudo Old Legion?
