Do you think the game is overall balanced ?

To be honest, I think this is balanced compared to before ! But I always wanted to know others opinions. What do you think ?

    It's certainly much more balanced than before, it used to be a trainwreck.

    But, it can be better.

    No, still survivor-sided.

    I think after moris and keys are changed then it'll be it's most balanced in a long time. I think they could add more perks to help in the early game but that's it.

    Last patch was a big step in the right direction.

    But the list of QoL improvements is still long.

    I have put a lot of thought into this, and for what the game is, yes. Camping & tunneling sucks. Too frequent of moris suck. SWF can royally suck for both killers and solo survivors. There's just not a lot they can do about these things? I put a question mark because I see frequent suggestions, but they change the game play a lot. Like putting in game comms, but I have no interest in talking with people I don't know, and that would then become the meta. Or making killers leave the area, but I've read a few times they tried it and failed because survivors abused it.

    So yes and no. I like the game as is, there are things that could be improved upon, how? Idk.

    The bad often stands out more than the good, and i prefer it that way cause of course you want to address the bad.

    But if we had the knowledge of today & the 2016 version of the game, the game would be an absolute trainwreck.

    So yeah, i'd say it's certainly balanced enough.

    When I play Solo Survivor: Yeah. It feels pretty balanced to me. 


    When I play swf: Not even close. And I'm not talking about microphones or anything. Just 4 decent survivors playing the game without talking to each other. We only had an open chat when we had to say something important. 


    When I play killer: That's a tough one. You can get rekt, but in most cases you will do well if you are a decent killer. It depends. Should this game be balanced for the highest level? Then this game is still very unbalanced. Should it be balanced for average players? Then I think this game is pretty well balanced.

    This is where I'm at. Looking back it was a miracle anyone had fun, and looking at our current situation it's also a miracle. But less so than before.


    Still long ways to go though.

    This is interesting indeed ...

    Compared to before, the game is on the right track.

    game is much more balanced that it used to be that's for sure but I hope it wont stop here

    Some Aspects are heavily unbalanced.

    Survivors have more unbalanced things (many perks and some tiles and keys)

    And killers have less unbalanced things but far more hardcore then the things survivors have --> Moris and noed.

    Also Spirit is an unbalanced killer imo

    but now the god windows have been reduced its a step into the right direction.

    The game will be way more balanced when Keys and moris get changed (hopefully on the same patch)

    I agree it's better then it used to be but I would not say dbd is balanced either.
