Should The Devs create a DLC Based Off The Fans Ideas?
I've just seen so many people on the creation discussions saying they have no reason to showcase their ideas here on the forums. Saying no one will ever get their ideas implemented into the game. I say WRONG SIR! We've already had a fans cosmetic ideas implanted into the game - so why not with chapter ideas as well?

No - Devs do just fine on their own and they rock for it
Sorry, I think it would just be a bad idea. Because next thing you know you'll have some animatronic trying to be a knock off version of Freddy, and as cool as Freddy is in his own game, it wouldn't go well with the theme of dead by daylight.

True. But when I say fan - I mean am idea created by them and them alone. No recreating another horror game killer. Just something you think of on your own. Like the Devs do. Their own ORIGINAL idea

Maybe- depends on time and how to implement said winners idea
I think it could work! The set up is what I'm interested in the most (temporary tourney, art contest, fan voted in creation discussions, Live fan voting during their annual DBD conference, etc.) Anyway you slice it, there are creative and talented people all over and while I am content playing and being surprised at the upcoming chapters, it would be nice tip of the hat to do something like this. I wonder if it would be free like huntress or in game currency 🤔. All I know is that I would love to see Clementine from TellTale the Walking Dead in here, but that's just more evidence that I should stay an observer 😅😂

I do think player feedback is important, and player ideas are great to have. The devs have implemented good player ideas in the past - I've heard that Hex: Haunted Ground was one example.
However, I don't think we should have a fan-designed chapter, because the truth is most players don't know as much as they think they do about game design or balance and would probably totally botch it. And I feel like it would be a bad idea to put the devs into a position where they're obliged to work with someone who doesn't know what they're talking about when it comes to design. It could get messy very easily.
Having said that, if the fan-made component was strictly limited to the character's lore and/or appearance, that would be something I could get behind.

That's honestly a good point. I apparently didn't really consider the potential cons in this scenario

If the devs can't do an balanced dlc and always need to change something, imagine this community
