While I get the sensitivity/seizure risk and wanting to mitigate that, it still feels unfair to demand the devs to cater towards people's phobias. This is a horror game and there is a phobia for literally everything. There was a similar discussion when Wesker was released due to his power and how it looked on infected survivors.

Clown is a good example of a really common phobia, but he's in the game nonetheless. Limiting and censoring phobias is in itself limiting the game and what the devs can do. Its a horror game and these things should be expected when someone decides to play. Not curving what they don't like.

Seeing the lobby is fine, I guess, but I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about the ability to shop personal profiles and dodge if you don't like their hours, which killers can do for survivors but survivors can't do for killer.

The profile does not fit any of your description. Gameplay-wise there is 0 reason why the Killer should see the profile of the Survivors. And because of that, Killers are lobbyshopping until they find people with less enough hours.

Slightly incorrect. If the Killer DCs, it is because of the Survivors. If the Survivors DC, it is because they are entitled.

I don't think itl effect the game as badly as it sounds. Like if you stacked 4 healing perks, they would never go beyond a certain speed alredy. So instead you are more likely to rely on 1 healing perk and make more diverse builds. Instead of 4 healing perks and end up playing against plague lol

I honestly don't think Diminishing Returns will actually affect that many gimmick, niche, or off-meta builds, honestly.

Most of the ones I run won't be affected that I can think of off the top of my head, and if they are it'll probably just be swapping out one perk for something else. There's still plenty of opportunity to mix and match things around for fun variety— if anything you might be more encouraged to do that since you can't lean as hard into just stacking the same effect.

Profiles, like Steam profiles. Not in-game avatars.

It might not be possible to do anything about that outside of hiding it a bit better. I believe steam will show you who you are in a lobby with even if the devs turned the feature off in the game itself to like, click names and view a profile. And you already can't see profiles for people on other platforms anyway.

The tools already exist as a player to do this, you can limit viewing of your profile to remove things like hours, or even make the entire profile private.

Maybe I'm being baited by the thumbnail here (I haven't watched the video) but I really don't understand why people act like the presence of a rocket launcher is the sole determining factor for whether Nemesis is accurate to the games or not.

Everything he does have is accurate, why does it matter that he doesn't have that one highly specific thing?

Which CC is responsible for this mantra of "survivor is really strong right now" that I keep hearing, because it seems like a way to just avoid responsibility? You can blame the game when survivors win instead of blaming yourself.

You're also saying "survivor is really strong" in a post where the dreaded and all powerful 4man, supposedly the strongest thing in the game, got full-team slugged. So what does weak look like?

Also, I have higher stats on Henry, Dredge, Freddy, and Vecna than the official numbers you posted and I'm mid, at best. And it's only those four because I've never played the others. But you're right, the statistics don't paint a clear picture because matches with DCs are cut. The numbers for thise killers are likely 5 to 10 points higher in reality. That aligns more with my own stats.
