Killer mains: would you meme more if load times were faster?

Im my experience ive never really encountered killers that dont play for keeps, which i get but some strats still kinda suck to go against like slug builds or anti-chase killers. But on the flip side i have waited 30+ mins for a match as killer and it makes me play a bit sweaty even though i generaly don't plau to kill.

So just in general if you could load into games as fast as survivors, around 2-10 mins per match, would you be more likely to let survivors go and goof off with them? Or heck would you be more inclined to try different builds than your go toos?

    So I get quick Killer matches and I'm ok with goofing and I usually let someone go if they deserve it but on the PTB the wait times are completely ridiculous and I can't afford to goof off and if someone is ruining it for me then it ruins the whole thing because the wait time was too long and who knows when the next match will be. I can imagine being salty and a real dick to people if my normal games were as long as the PTB ones so to answer your question, yes I think shorter wait times would help with the attitude for Killers.

    But even if the Killer has a good attitude, the survivors may not, and they can still and usually are anyway the cause of ''sweaty'' and salty Killers.

    I don't ever take dbd seriously on either side. If you take it seriously you're just asking for a pounding headache.

    I meme a lot anyway just to avoid going anywhere near red ranks.

    I can play there just fine but its not fun at all imo so i do a lot of meme-y matches where i try to get kills/downs in strange ways.

    That's a pretty specific question.

    But no, don't think it'd change the way I play at all.

    My queues are quick and I tend to goof off pretty hard. I love trying to jump on tiles as hillbilly

    I usually play whichever side has faster load times. On PS4 the queue times go up and down. Sometimes survivor is instant and sometimes killer is instant.

    I meme around all the time as killer. I doubt I would meme around if load times took forever. If load times take too long, I usually just stop playing altogether and do something else, anyway.

    Taking DbD seriously is a surefire way to misery. Goofing off and memeing is the best. I got a nasty tirade of messages from a survivor last night because apparently they take the game seriously and don't appreciate the fact that I don't. Just sort of reinforced my desire to meme around.
