Anyone else feel neutral about the nerfs and buffs of survivors?

    I just want the pallet interactions fixed. Don't really care too much about the other changes.

    I feel the nerfs were indeed noticeable (vacuum, mainly), and rightfully so. But the soon-to-be-buffs are minuscule and I feel neutral towards them as well. The only one important is the in-built Kindred, and is so overpowered that it wont make it to live servers (maybe even PTB), unless it does not include the Survivor-Survivor aura reading.

    Unless you mean generally. In which case, I will just reply with "Depends on the case".

    The only change I noticed in the last nerf was that some killers (looking at you, Clown!) can apply a "short" exhaustion debuff that effectively denied lithe, DH and BL for the entire chase.  That's it, really, and while kinda lame it still requires them to hit you first, so when it happens I chalk it up as a failure on my end on remind myself to gut gud.

    No idea what all the spazzing was about.

    As for upcoming changes, I won't feel strongly either way until I see what they actually do in PTB, and maybe not even then.

    I’m cool with it, I think it’s in the right direction and I play Killer and Survivor. Maybe SWF shouldn’t have that kindred though.

    Well you can play killer then after next patch, because im not gonna bother anymore if devs do all that stuff they said in Q&A

    I have thoughts on some things, but I have given up to the fact that I will keep playing this game no matter what, because this past year, even if I have bought new games, this is all I end up playing. So if they take away my ability to run, I will get upset, but I will still be there, taking a stroll. Cant help it, so I try to be neutral to all changes, most of them spice up my game play, so it usually works out fine. Its not the game that makes my hair gray as much as some of the players. The game I love too much.

    I'm going to take a good look at the PTB, and I recommend everyone to do the same. The more people participate as both killer and survivor, the more data the devs can gather.

    The kindred buff is going to be a huge thing.

    I'm getting numb to all the changes that help the Killer in one patch and then take away in the next. It looked like they were heading down a road to balancing, but they are back tracking again, so meh.

    It's time to stop caring about the game and try to play it , the way they leave it. If I stop having fun, then I'll easily walk away and play something that is fun.

    Its somehow addicting, the only rason the game is still alive if you ask me.

    I will just like I always have after every nerf and every buff, regardless of which direction it’s in. You can keep complaining about it though.
