  • Definitely easier for survivors to win. As both a killer main and a survivor main who plays solo queue most of the time, I can say my killer games require a lot more effort than playing survivor. Even when I play solo as survivor, there's a better chance I bump into decent teammates so I can relax and just do gens, or when I don't I try to take chase from them so they can do gens instead. Whereas as killer, I am forced to fix my posture and remind myself to lose chase if It's taking too long in order to ensure a win, to check gens and decide who to chase.

    One brain vs Four, it makes sense for the four survivors to have a better chance of getting out and the killer losing.

    Fortnite is one of the most popular games in the world, it has way more players than DBD. They must be doing something right. Imo, DBD has a problem with it's playerbase being all veterans. It's working for now. But will DBD really last like that? I think they understood that even though Tokyo Ghoul isn't directly horror, it's still a franchise that would bring in new players.

    Just because something brings in new players doesn't mean it should be done. I know I know, Fortnite is incredibly popular and has a big player base constantly, but it doesn't have what DBD has, to me anyway, and that's a soul. Fortnite is different from DBD, one is a battle royale game and the other a horror asymmetrical game.

    Sure, Fortnite is doing something right selling goofy emotes and any character skin under the sun as long as they can get a hold of licensing, but that doesn't mean DBD can, it simply does not fit the fog.

    We already have cosmetic collections with Attack on Titan and we have a few with bands. We're getting scooby doo. DBD is already past the point of becoming fortnite.

    I agree with this somewhat, for AoT I don't mind, given that they are skins for the already existing characters, plus with the whole titans eating civilians thing, it fits. The same goes to Scooby Doo which if I remember correctly was announced during the anniversary live, so I count that as just a silly outfit to thank and celebrate that, not to mention Scooby Doo is kinda horror(?) but more on the silly side, don't quote me on this my knowledge of Scooby Doo is a group of people investigating the supernatural, which to me is a fun skin collection idea.

    So maybe I stand corrected here, I don't mind silly/cute/cosplay skins to an extent, but I don't want to see silly characters that don't fit the theme being implemented into the game as a playable character.

    Anime can be horror, horror belongs in DBD. Hatsune Miku I get, but Chainsaw Man is as horror as Saw or Terrifier; it being animated doesn't change that. A more fitting example would be something like the R6 Siege collab or if we were to be very pedantic even Tomb Raider or Witcher that can be seen as scary situations if we were in them but aren't explicitly horror media.

    Chainsawman is a bit of a personal one for me, given it's my own favorite anime show and I've not liked anything else since it's release. It just doesn't make sense for Reze to be chased around trials you know? Or even Denji, canonically they are super over powered compared to the settings in the fog. Makima wouldn't be suitable as a killer either, she doesn't go out of her way to target randoms in her lore, she doesn't have that kind of bloodlust.

    I guess I should've worded it better, it's not about horror and the scare factor, but rather whether or not the setting fits DBD, even when manipulated to fit, I wouldn't want it to feel forced.

  • And this problem still persists even two years later, especially in Asia servers it seems. Recently I've been seeing so so many of them, in the past 3 days I've met different accounts doing the exact same thing. It genuinely ruins the experience, and I can't disconnect either, because of the matchmaking penalty. Really hope BHVR fixes this.
