I want to point out that most of that response was actually me copying and pasting separate comments I've written in the past, the only thing that was new in there was the last sections talking about "relevance".
In all reality I am only as "outraged" as you would think one would be when it comes to theory crafting, which is not very. It's not like I'm going around my house clutching my fists thinking about Silent Hill
Although I stand by my criticisms and critiques which are entirely valid in pointing out this whole theory which hinges on the font of the number 4 is quite frankly dumb. If you don't like my opinion, because it's "toxic" or "the voice of a party pooper" know my opinion is also shared by Paulie Esther, who is very much possibly the most wholesome member of the entire Dead By Daylight community. So chew on that.
The difference is, he's nice enough just to say "I would be disappointed if it was Pyramid head" and leave it as that, whereas I am far more willing to, as you put it: "systematically dissect" and dismember the theory on the spot.
And I also think many people will agree with me when I say:
######### Konami.
If you're looking for a reference for someone who is actually outraged, watched this guy:
Oh I know it's copied and pasted. That's why I asked that "this" not be put in every Pyramid Head theory thread since this isn't the first time I've seen your post in the few I've seen before. It's also a bit of hyperbole on my part when it comes to your "outrage." I'm just sayin that was a metric butt load of stuff you unloaded on here.
Also, I would hate to think Paulie finds this kind of theory crafting silly since he's practically been posting videos speculating since the announcement that it was a licensed chapter. If I had a dollar for every Candyman video he's made I'd have...like...a couple of dollars, I dunno.
And yes, I am deeply aware of the ######### show that is Konami. As much as I'd hate for them to be given money, I more so want to see Team Silent's hard work be recognized as something iconic. To let Konami muddle the name of Silent Hill with their horrible business ventures is to let all of Team Silent's hard work go to waste.
On a final note, your remark that I should, as you put it, "chew on that" really makes it seem like you're a bit more aggro than ya should be. I'm just asking that ya be a bit considerate when responding to these posts because some people quite enjoy making these little theories during the wait for the big announcement. It's not like I'm calling for your arrest, dude. I would never want to try and indict someone who has such deep connections with the fun police.

Most killers that bring a Mori are subhuman. If I get one of those rare dailies I'll bring a green morri
There's still the like 5 tome challenges, 2 of which require killing *all* survivors. The other three require from 8 to 10 kills. Best case scenario thats 7 ebony moris but that's being pretty optimistic.
I do get it, there are genuinely people out there that wish to have the most unfair advantage possible but ya shouldn't just assume cuz someone uses a mori that they wanna be a pain in the ass.
Sometimes it's nothing personal, it's just business.

Stop
It's not, It's just not.
I swear to God if anybody ever even mentions the fact that the number "4" is shaped like Pyramid Head I'm going to lose it. OF COURSE IT IS It's the FOURTH anniversary aka the number Four. The devs can't change how the f*ck numbers or time works I could have told you that the number 4 looks kind of like Pyramid head four years ago and it would be utterly meaningless. That is purely coincidental, that's not actual evidence.
I mean seriously "The number four has a triangle in it... Pyramids are made of triangles... OHMYGODIT'SPYRAMIDHEAD"
https://us.v-cdn.net/6030815/uploads/957/image.png
That sh*t is conspiracy on the level of drawing triangles everywhere and saying "illuminati confirmed"
https://us.v-cdn.net/6030815/uploads/366/image.png
It is stylized in the form appropriate for a horror game / thematic. There is nothing more to read into that image, because if the 4 had significance than that means the whole image would require significance, what does the color pallete mean, why did they choose black and gold? Where is the connection of Gold to the Silent Hill franchise? What does the Skull mean? Why is there a black liquid oozing from the skull? How is that connected to Silent Hill? and so on and so on.
By this logic you'd also have to contend with Candyman as a potential candidate, based off the image alone. You don't have to change the number 4 that much if at all to draw comparisons to Pyramid Head, in fact I'd say it'd be basically impossible to draw the number 4 without looking like a side profile of pyramid head that's why I say it's completely coincidental. However, the decision to drag out the last line of the number 4 all the way down to the bottom of the image slowly getting thinner and thinner is a deliberate art choice made by whoever on the team was responsible for creating the art.
It almost looks like it's dripping, and what is gold and drips slowly like that? Honey. What killer is connected to Honey? How about The Candyman who was coated in the stuff and burned alive. That and considering the repeated use of the gold color spattered and speckled across the entire image I'd say you would have a stronger case for Candyman than Pyramid Head.
If I was a betting man I would be putting my money on Candyman considering all of those were deliberate art choices the team had to go out of their way to create making them much more likely to be hints. Whereas almost any 4 you could draw would at least look similar to the image of a side profile of pyramid head.
However, I don't put stock into either theory because it's just a teaser image for the 4th year anniversary, there are likely no "clues" or secret "hints" to find there, that would be far too predictable and easy to puzzle out. It's not like the third year anniversary teaser with the blood spatters making a three had any connection to the nearest chapter that was going to be released then at the time (Which I believe was Ghostface if I remember correctly)
And to put a serious dent in your it is "iconic in the world of horror since it's release" and "classic" argument, (which was partly based on Wikipedia of all things, really? Wikipedia is 50% of your sources? The one source that every english class ever tells you not to cite??) it is frankly not. "The world of horror" as a whole is far older than video games, and to be quite frank the video game industry is still very, VERY much new and pales in comparison to the much older and established industry of Film and TV who reach audiences at a far more expansive level and far wider range beyond even the most popular video games.
The characters that are most well recognized in terms of horror but just generally in all things are the ones that are shown on the big screen, people who aren't gamers are not going to know who Pyramid Head is. Hell, I'm a gamer and I'm not interested in Konami or the Silent Hill franchise though I've heard about it. Making such an announcement would only be interesting to a select audiences ears and nobody else, but those same people would on the other hand recognize the bad-ass Xenomorph, or super creepy Pennywise the dancing clown, or the Predator, or Pinhead, Candyman, literally anybody else.
Can Pyramid Head ever make it into the game? Absolutely, and he'd probably be super dope and creepy too. But for this chapter? The one that has been hyped up as the singlehandedly most important and emotional chapter in the history of Dead By Daylight TO DATE? Hell no. If that were actually true I and I assume very, very, very many other people would be incredibly disappointed.
It worries me that people theory crafting makes you so outraged.
I mean, #########, I have contenders I kinda don't want in the game but you are on a whole nother level.
Look, people are just really excited about the upcoming reveal and are hypothesizing off of what they have because it not only kills time but it's *fun.* You coming in and systematically dissecting theories is pretty much throwing a wet blanket on all of that.
I'm not sayin that ya needa stop. I'm sure you're well aware you can do whatever you'd like. I'm just sayin you're bein a, for lack of a cooler sounding phrase, party pooper and it'd be cool if ya just left everyone to speculate instead of putting this in every "Pyramid Head Theory" thread.
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk

Woah calm down dude, read the comment above yours. Don't freak out over nothing, nobody said every person who uses a mori is a garden weed.
Just said people who tunnel and mori off first hook kind of smell like fish. K? Read what I said before seething.
Don't worry, I wasn't referring to you, man. Just the ones calling the killers who use moris "insecure" and "trash."
Also, I wasn't frothing at the mouth was I? My bad if my bit of hyperbole gave off the wrong impression.
-
I respect it.
Hope you find a game you can enjoy.
-
Some people are on here talking about how people who use moris are the scum of the earth like there isn't both a daily mission for killing a survivor and multiple Tome missions that require killing survivors.
I get it, some people suck but damn calm down. We aren't all out to ruin your day.
-
I know everyone says that there's no difference in the things that pop up in the bloodweb, but, as someone who is just now getting my killers to Prestige I, the stuff I'm getting is lookin like filet mignon compared to what I started with.
I'm getting a lot less of the non-teachables and a good bit of survivor pudding and bloody party streamers. I'm just getting Sloppy Butcher on my Legion and I haven't even gotten Distressing yet.
Don't know how this scales as you prestige more but it seems notable to me at least. Then again, if ya don't feel like restarting from scratch again, I don't blame ya.
-
I notice that every time a notification pops up (bloodlust, a perk being revealed, etc.) there is a bit of a frame drop.
Chances are if ya don't see the high ping indicator in the top left it isn't lag, but frame drops.
Could be wrong tho.
-
I mean there's a difference between balanced and fair. Is it balanced? I mean if survivors stay on gens they could leave with no more deaths. Is it fair? Not really for the poor soul who was unlucky enough to get downed, which is bound to happen at least once a match.
So I agree with the guy that it's technically balanced but that doesn't really make it okay that they choose to allow something very unfair to happen to the campee.
-
Not too keen on what is currently meta but I know Pop Goes The Weasel and Corrupt Intervention are very prominent.
-
Kinda just saying the same thing as everyone else but
Plague has the best perks
Spirit is the strongest
Deathslinger is fun
-
I remember getting all the teachables for killer and then thinking "Well now what?"
I don't have a preferred killer and the sheer amount of bloodpoints I needed to get my killers there relative to the amount ya get from actually playing the game *alongside* the fact I never got many of the teachables I wanted on the bloodweb really threw me off of this game. I only came back recently since I've been really bored and Otzdarva makes this game look like the most fun thing on planet earth.
Funny story. I could only get BBQ on like 4-5 of my killers who are all nearly 50. Just recently prestiged my Legion (one of the killers I had BBQ on, only Tier 1 tho) because I was using them for the tome. Got it twice now. I'm now convinced prestige is the greatest thing on God's green earth but also I hate it.

Debunking Brain Death (haha DBD)
Interact with a Dead Survivor (not sacrificed) and revive them for 1/1.5/2 minutes. After the allotted time, they return to their dead state.

I guess its an Xbox problem that there is almost never a GG. Nobody bothers there to start a conversation unless it has some salty purpose. On Pc it is much more easy - post game chat.
By the way
Can somebody explain me what ggs means?
GG = Good game, everyone knows that, but what is ggs? Good gameS, plural? Makes no sense saying that after one game.. so what is its meaning? ty
If I had to guess, it prolly comes from the fact that it's mostly sent in public chat, where everyone can see it. Therefore it's kinda like multiple ggs sent out to everyone.
I was not expecting to question the concept of ggs today. I kinda just assumed what it meant

The hatch wasn't happening, that was a given. If I wanted either of them to get the hatch, I wouldn't have tried to hook them. If he didn't want to be hooked, the only other mode of death was bleeding out. Not my favorite, by far, but those were the options.
I think you're confusing "didn't want to be hooked" with "didn't want to let you hook them"
The former implies that they would enjoy sitting on the floor dying, which they clearly didn't. The latter implies they don't want to give up on the match and so, want to get off of your shoulder in order to continue.
Ironically, the situation that would most likely have led to one of them getting the hatch would be if you were to put one of them on the hook. You probably wouldn't have gotten the one you picked up first onto the hook, leading to another chase, resulting in you (presumably, unless you would like five more chases by going pick up the other guy after downing the first one) hooking the guy and him killing himself, ultimately leaving the hatch to his pal who you are probably too far to get, depending on who you are playing.

They were dead because no killer who's actually playing for kills is just gonna let them go free. They were all down, they were done. No DS, no Unbreakable (besides that one guy who'd already used it anyway), nothing.
I'm not saying they should allow me to carry them to a hook, just that if they wanted to be hooked, then perhaps letting me hook them would be the best option. They didn't want to bleed out any more than I wanted to let them bleed out, but they chose that option by not letting me carry them to hooks.
To put this in a simple analogy, say you wanted cookies. Your parents want to give you cookies. You do everything in your power to stop them from giving you cookies. Is it your parents' fault that you didn't get cookies?
Damn you play for kills? And here I thought it was about the friends we made along the way.
But in all seriousness, you can't expect people to not get pissy when you let them die slowly on the ground, acting like you're doing them a favor. You can play however you want, I would just ask you try to really think about how your gameplay could hinder others' experience cuz not every survivor sees himself and his last teammate downed and says, "Oh brother, I just want to end the match already." Especially ones who clearly don't wanna let you hook them and are right next to hatch *alongside* his teammate.
-
I don't get how them being down in a hook dead zone means they're pretty much dead. If anything, they still have a chance due to the fact you can't make it to a hook. I also don't get how you not being able to get to a hook would drive them to just allow you to bring them to a hook. They saw a chance and they tried to take it. You, however, just decided they didn't have a chance and in the process denied them the chance to at least get some more points but at most get through the hatch that they found and (I can't claim to know what they were doing but I presume) went down near so that one could get the hatch.
Letting somebody bleed out is at worst an accident due to not being able to find them on the ground and at best a fun punishment for those cute lil toxic survivors that wanted to be cheeky. I really don't see many other reasons to let people bleed out and this doesn't seem like one.
Then again you do you man.
-
I think Distortion has way more utility in the fact that you can figure out if a killer has aura reading perks in the first place so that you can play accordingly. For example, if a stack gets eaten when someone gets hooked far away, you now know the killer has BBQ without becoming a victim to it. Now you can try and preserve stacks for when ya need em by getting in a locker or getting closer or just let it eat a second stack.
I guess you're whispers suggestion would be fine but I feel it would become a slippery slope of determining what should and shouldn't trigger Distortion. Also it would have to be one or the other. No way is a perk getting not only another trigger, but more stacks AND replenishing stacks.

Yeah it happens every time you break a pallet with bubba 😂
Damn, my identity as a Bubba main has been tainted.

Between the horrible matchmaking and how crappy the controls are on PS4, I really hate playing as Legion. My friend tried earlier today, and between being put up against survivors way out of his league and how whiffing immediately stuns Legion and takes him out of Frenzy, he couldn't get the daily challenge done.
One of these things on their own might not be such a problem, but when they're all combined it makes for a really miserable experience. I only play Legion if I absolutely have to, and the moment I complete whatever challenge I'm attempting I just go afk because I despise playing as him.
Oh yeah. The most fun killer to get the lil auto aim swings on for sure. Had a couple of those that match actually. Luckily tho none were frenzy swings (if ya wanna call that lucky.)

The ranks are super messed up right now. Let's just say dbd is totally broken at the moment. Everyone is dieing for the new hotfixes and updates and stuff to come out. There are also many audio issues.
Funny story
Just today I had a Bubba match where I was using the add on that considerably reduces cooldown and every time I'd break a pallet, a loop of the revving audio would play until I revved again
Picked a fun time to start using headphones

In a perfect world, this would be a great counter to NOED, but you can't rely on your teammates pulling their weight unless they are in a SWF with you.
Therefore, you must check all 5 totems to confirm NOED is deactivated. 😕
In a perfect world, you wouldn't have to rely heavily on your teammates pulling their weight in *any* online multiplayer game. Shame its not the world we live.
I do appreciate you looking out for the little guy (solo survivors) tho, but if there are any solo survivors on this forum who have a problem with the power of solo survivors vs NOED, they should either realize they're in a forum that is not just for complaining or accept the fact they are choosing to hinder themselves concerning the thing they have the biggest problem with.
-
I can see a lot of this stuff could be annoying for a more casual player. I'd even go as far as to say they should make moris only usable on people who are on their last hook, effectively making it a cosmetic kill animation and nothing more.
The thing with the add ons tho is that they are far from guaranteed wins. The most I'd do with the add ons listed is make it to where iri heads prohibit hatchet increase add ons, turning it into a "one in the chamber" type add on. Infinite Tier 3 is incredibly hard to build up if survivors are paying attention and survivors who understand their mobility have no trouble dodging hatchets, especially when its iri head due to the pressure of being one shot
Once again, I understand the frustration if you're a more casual player, but you can't expect people not to play competitively and use some of the best items in the game. That's how you get pissed off when they inevitably do.
