Seriously though, through all the harsh comments, the whining, the fierce competitiveness of it...I still absolutely love this game!

Let's have some positive comments, shall we? What brings you back playing hour after hour? What is your favourite thing about Dead By Daylight?

    But what about when you get a really good bunch of survivors? Completely non-toxic, just play the game simply to enjoy it, good conversation after the match, that sort of thing? I know it's few and far between but it does restore faith in humanity ever-so-slightly when it happens!

    The story. Ordinary people (with a couple people experienced in dealing with their own killers) trying to survive and defeat a ancient deity hellbent on conquering their world. All the while trying to avoid the savage creatures that serve it.

    The most important thing is that as a killer you can be mad only at yourself (and maybe balance of game). Contrary to other games, where even if you played good your team can still loose a game. So you come back to improve and fight against the odds.
    Other aspect is that there are the 1-5% of matches when something incredible happens - 4 downed in basement, Devour Hope with 5 stacks, sniping someone with huntress. Even if it doesn't happen often it gives you a huge boost of motivation to play.
    And of course bloodpoints. Farming bloodpoints to get your favourite characters to III-50 (and all perks). Even if you didn't do well, you know that you made some progress to your goal.

    I don't know why, but I really love the killer's menu screen. When they're watching the survivors around the campfire from a distance? Simple but effective!

    What about the depression of getting facecamped by a toxic killer?

    The crazy chases.

    Recently played a game with OoO and got tunneled all the way down to the last hook. Two survivors were chased out of the gates, and one hid to try to save me while I was downed under a pallet. The Huntress waited and I stalled my Unbreakable till she was standing right above me, and I got up, palleted her, ran to the gate, dodged an axe, and Dead Harded into the gate as soon as it was off CD. Craziest play I've ever gotten away with.

    I come back for the thrill.

    I love this game and I already showed my respect to devs but honestly it's not about toxic survivors most of the time , the game itself , the perks !!! Like doesn't matter if a survivor be toxic or not when they hit me with DS that rush comes into my blood to kill them and it's most likely normal . if you watch a horror movie you will see why , like the army guy in " Texas chainsaw massacre : the beginning " who wanted to beat the sh#t out of franklin when he hit them with baton . but at the end of the day no matter what happens I come back to DBD because it's a god damn master piece and it made so many of my wishes in gaming come true .

    I love outsmarting the killer when Im survivor I try to minimize any looping In my matches its much more satisfying when you truly outsmart the killer by skill not just running in a circle,drop and repeat.

    and in my killer matches I love out smarting survivors tricking them into making moves they think are safe but what I want them to do to get a hit in.

    The lore interests me a lot in dead by daylight but what used to keep me coming back was just that i loved it. It was my favorite game till many of my friends stopped playing it when i left to play other games on xbox. I decided to wait for balance changes and content before i played the game again. Now it seems that it is time to come back!

    @JEWberry You should definitely come back! The update in June looks to be really fun, and there's a lot that they've done in terms of balance changes! Don't be fooled by all the negativity you see around, it's still a great game!

    You know, I'm approaching 500+ hours in the game, a lot of which as a survivor, and I'm completely useless with a torch! Its to the point where I just basically ignore their existence! The only time I actually take one from a chest is if I'm against the Hag - to get rid of her traps!

    I mostly play stealthily though, in honesty.

    The stealth. I've been waiting for a multiplayer stealth game for so long, and finally we got one. The fact that can also play as/get killed by some of my favorite slashers only makes it more fun for me.

    I love the stealth aspect! I never understand the survivors that go in guns blazing and goading the killer, it seems to completely take the horror aspect out of it, you know?

    Oh man, the chill when you hear the Halloween theme tune?! One of my favourite things as a survivor is working on a generator, looking around (as you do) and suddenly seeing Myers stalking you from a corner or through a window! That jolt of fear with a jumpscare?! I freaking love it!

    It has been a new sound since they fixed the hit sound bug that happened about a month or so ago.

    It sounds like an exploding grapefruit lmao

    The game at it's core is extremely fun and engaging ( killer side at least ) when you get those chill games.

    But going against tryhard SWF groups on any killer besides nurse....it feels about as good as walking in on the wife with your friend from work.
