What was the worst original chapter for you?

Darkness Among Us or Chains of Hate. Nobody likes Deep Wound.

Chains of Hate, bland cliche-riddled survivor, killer who doesnt really fit at all (a zombie cowboy? who tought that?), Survivor perks were bad (ive seen For the People backfiring more times than being truly useful and the other 2 are just awful), Killer perks were nothing special either, I only like the map but its repetitive as the tiles are always the same with gens in the same spots.
While Darkness amongst us brought old Legion with it and a broken map (I dont dislike Ormond but it crashed the game) it brought Discordance which is great, Jeff who has one of the best backgrounds and looks for original Survivor and Distortion and Aftercare are nice for newcomers (not so good for veterans but they help newcomers which have been forgotten by a long time).

Demise of the faithful. Because I abhor plague and Jane is awkward. Please stop making porn sounds.

Curtain Call: only 1 actually good perk, lazily-invented clown power, no new realm. Devs could come up with a very interesting and unique power to the clown, but they made a very uninteresting ability to throw bottles, seriously? it has nothing to do with anything clowning at all, I really hope that in the future devs will come up with a really interesting power and new mechanics. Although in fact you can understand, since in this update the developers changed a lot in the technical part and tried hard to balance the game so maybe they didn’t have enough time to come up with new interesting perks, power etc.

But if anyone can use her and do well with her, even when we're all apparently not playing her "properly"...then how easy is it to win with her when you do play her properly lmao. She is objectively a very easy killer to play and get good with. It's not even a bad thing, so idk why you'd even want to try and defend this because even the hardest killer to play, The Nurse, isn't very demanding at all. This game was designed to be a very simplistic and accessible game and it works well in that respect.

Game for the spirit depends on the quality of your headphones, if it is good, then it will be very easy, if not, then it will be just easy lmao

Hey you're right Legion is trash tunneling it really isn't so bad,Legion's a bad ass killer only if the timer ran down during chase's also we'd be unstoppable other Legion.

When the Legion first came out, it was hell. They've definitely fixed them though, buuuuuuuuuut I'd still like to see them changed. I'm just not satisfied with their current state and I feel like there is SO much potential with them.

Me too where if you didn't like the killer's design, their backstory may intrigue or one of their perks is salvageable, it's always something there for someone. Regardless of the dislike for the chapter it self and the spotlights are always dope.I didn't much like the Oni until, I read his backstory and saw the Spotlight and that was 4 months after his release, don't get me wrong after the release, I played with him and warm up to him ,but when I read his backstory that's when I truly appreciated him.

Overall? Plague.
-Didn't like the killer apperance design. Not frightening. Looked like a mixture of an Egyptian goodess and Evil-Lyn from Masters Of The Universe.
-Jane is far too noisy. Her only interesting perk was Head On.
-The map was uninspiring.
1 -
Spirit is the one that has no redeeming qualities for me. Her design, gameplay and visually, is annoying (that face tho, yikes), her backstory is uninteresting and generic, her perks are mostly bad and not great additions to the game for both sides and for several reasons, and yamaokas estate is widely regarded as a pretty bad realm. I personally dislike it because of the terrible jungle gyms that have no good way of running them as killer, and all of the fluff on the map that's distracting as both killer and survivor.

I mean yeah Haunting Grounds is Great ,introspective I guess legion is pretty annoying to go against,I don't think he was in a bad spot for killer before predate but survivor's. But this the power people wanted to give ghostface what you prefer that.

chains of hate and darkness among us are tied imo
both brought very lame and boring killers to play against, and i absolutely despise both maps with a passion
at least the chapters brought zarina and jeff :/
1 -
My take away from this is that Darkness Among Us is by far the most hated, then its Chains of Hate and on third place is Curtain Call. Interestingly enough people like the survivors who came with these chapters just hate how the killer functions and in general the maps (or lack of such cough clown).
(Not sure about artist feel free to give them credit if u know them.)

Legion is the lamest killer, Jeff is rarely seen (does anyone main Jeff?), and although I don't mind Ormond it seems to get a lot of hate on here. So hands down I have to say the Legion DLC was the worst. If they took out the whole thing I would not miss any of it, perks, toons, map and all.
0 -
I was going to say Stranger Things too, then I realized....
Still, it is the worse chapter. Bad killer, and not just 8 bad perks to fill up your blood web but 12 incredibly bad perks that I wouldn't wish on my worse enemy.
0 -
8 and 12? You mean 6 and 9?
0 -
If you think spirit is braindead easy to play, you havent played her outside of grey ranks. She takes a decent amount of skill to use, especially with the iron will meta and buggy sounds
0 -
If anything doctor and oni are by far the most braindead
0 -
I'm a red rank killer, and it is my opinion. I also play on console, and sounds are less bugged on console for me. All I need are scratch marks and breathing noises or even grass. She has barely any depth or layer to her power.

I actually liked Darkeness Among Us. Though Legion was broken back the, at least they're in a better spot now. I don't them annoying at all, in fact I find Freddy the most annoying killer. I'd say Flesh of Mud with the hag and ace has to be the worst one. Ace's perks are no where near decent except for ace in the hole and the map is one of my least favorites bc I always get fps drops whenever I play there.
1 -
Okay, I entirely get the spirit being a hated killer. I don't like playing as or against her, she is very braindead to play BUT the chapter? hoooo I LOVE shattered bloodline and I get your opinion but her design and the map is everything IMO and I think it makes it a contender for being better than worst.

Demise Of The Faithful ;,(
It felt so rushed and badly made. The lack of effort on the map and killer mori was disgusting. Recycling so many old assets, making a temple that looked so marvelous in the trailer look that bad was disappointing. Also, The Plague's power is aesthetically displeasing and annoying mechanically.
0 -
Ye i personally agree, the whole idea behind the chapter, Spirit's lore, her visuals, the map, the map's lore. Its a very polished chapter same for cursed legacy demise of the faithful and stranger things, they are all really polished and feel like a lot of work went into them. But smth like chains of hate, darkness among us (all the bugs and legion on release) and even curtain call, they all feel so just bad and almost fan made like its smth u'd read about on the forums not smth a million dollar company would release, especially chains of hate, still can't believe thats a legit chapter.
1 -
Honestly I'm surprised you said Demise feels polished. That chapter felt VERY quickly made IMO. But, I also find it strange you didn't like Chains Of Hate. As much as I did not want a western style killer, the map feels amazing, the killer's lore is great, and his power has great potential to be fun. But Darkness Among Us and Curtain Call are gross IMO. Esp Curtain Call bc it's also a recycled map but I guess I can give them a break on that because that's when they created the cosmetic shop so I guess they focused on new cosmetics more.
0 -
True, I think the chapter was good as a whole, it's just that I hate spirit.
0 -
i just feel like the plague as an idea is very well thought out, her visuals are amazing, jane's visuals are amazing, the map while in the red forest looks great since it doesn't recycle any of the loops. It also came with some good and fun perks for both sides like head on, corrupt, infectious, dark devotion and poised. All of the perks have potential in combos and on other killers. And i just love Plague's lore its so well put together and just makes u wanna keep reading (thats my opinion at least) i hated chains of hate as it feels so boring and just stupid as an idea, a zombie cowboy? cmon. the map looks amazing but is awful to play on for both sides as its either a dead zown saloon or god loops. and i hate how cowboy and zarina look

probably the deathslinger one i hate that killer damn

Darkness Among Us. The map was pretty broken on launch; scratch marks were invisible and performance was atrocious. I like Jeff alright as a character, but Legion is by far the most annoying killer in the game to play against. It's just an M1 simulator, and especially with the rift as it is now there are a disproportionate amount of games against them.
I don't really care about lore, but theirs is also terrible. Four edgy teens wear masks and murder someone. So spooky.
1 -
I'm really conflicted where I stand with , the chapter, I like the characters but every one hates them and, I like ormond as a map I do pretty well on their actually, but I don't like just facing legion after legion it's pretty annoying ,and that happens time or you get back to back ghostfaces that ######### is annoying

Legion. His trailer was different from his ingame power. He had potential to be a "swap personas killer" or "become a survivor killer" but his ability is just the most boring and uninspired one of them all. Also, as a survivor it's just annoying having to mend all the time.
0 -
Good call. Chains of Hate would be my second choice, in large part because Deathslinger is my second least favorite killer to play against, right next to Legion. Those two are miles worse than anyone else. Trapper is probably a distant third just because having to worry about traps stresses me out, but I think his mechanics are good.
At any rate, Chains of Hate has mostly terrible perks too. Red Herring and For the People are both interesting, strength aside, but the other four perks are pretty terrible. I believe this was the chapter that introduced breakable walls too, which I also despise. They're a big part of the reason why Midwich is such a trainwreck of a map for both sides (very thematic though).
I've warmed up to Dead Dawg a lot, at least, but I still really don't like the lighting on it.

no one saying Cursed Legacy? Intresting enough thinking about how many people complain about Oni xD
0 -
I think Cursed Legacy is the third worst chapter. Not as bad as Chains Of Hate and Demise Of The Faithful simply because of Oni. He's one of my favourite Killers. However, all three chapters have crappy maps and Survivors, but Yui is pretty decent...
1 -
Honestly, i would probably say "of Flesh and Mud". Disregarding the dumbass name, i dont rly enjoy the hags gameplay, she was pretty awful on release aswell. Hex perks are a nice idea but aside from devour hope i honestly dont like any of them and totem spots are so awfully placed on some maps that its just too inconsisten for my taste. Oh ye and dont get me started on the ######### swamp. Like who enjoys the swamp srsly. "Oh another jolly day in the ######### swamp", nah man im good. And Ace's perks are all pretty meh, even tho i like him.
1 -
Chains of Hate by a long shot
Terrible Killer design, terrible map, mediocre perks overall.
1 -
Either Chains of Hate or Darkness Among Us, Chains of Hate had terrible perks and a promising killer who turned out to be really boring to play. Darkness Among Us brought one of the most problematic killers to the game, a ######### map, meh perks and blue-balled a tease towards a disguising killer.
