Why do people say Chucky's size would not make a realistic killer?
I keep hearing streamers say that, because of his size, Chucky would be problematic with getting the survivors on hooks? All that needs doing is to make Charles Lee Ray the killer, the one whose soul transferred into Chucky, and do something with Chucky being his power. His size would make him a mind game killer at loops, he can hit at the achilles tendon downing them that way, hindering them after the first hit. Picking people up would obviously take him out of his power just as the oni does and his time as Chucky would be time limited.
His mori would be the chant he does when trying to transfer his soul, in this case he would just take the survivors soul with the thunderstorm being heard throughout the entire map, maybe flashes of lightening too. It would be good if the looks of the survivors decayed whilst doing this but doubt the devs would animate every character to do this.
TLDR Charles Lee Ray is the killer, Chucky is the power, the soul transferring chant is the mori. Charles can hook people since he was human, problem solved.

In a stream before Deathslinger release Cote said the size wouldn't be an issue, they could figure something out, the problem with Chucky is he's seen too much as comedic horror thanks to the later movies. The TV show is supposed to be more horror like the first couple movies so hopefully that gets rid of the comedic horror excuse and they look into making him a killer. I'd love to have Chucky in the game because I think there's a ton you can do with him.

Cult of Chucky and I think it was curse of Chucky took it back to horror imo. Yes Chucky still had the wise cracks but he did even through the first three. I didn't care much for the movies myself once they started turning away from the horror roots, still watched them though.
A nightmare on elm Street also started leaning towards the absurd in the later movies, not counting the reboot, but that still got in the game.

I can't speak for why Freddy and not Chucky as far as the comedic horror bit. Tbh I wish they did original Freddy or no Freddy at all. Here's link to the stream, they start talking about it at around the 32:50 mark because Leprechaun is brought up.

The actress playing Tiffany is Jennifer Tilly who is 5 ft 7 in ( 170.18 cm). Chucky is barely the size of her torso.
He'd have to be sized up, otherwise he'd be the anti loop king because you wouldn't be able to see him do anything.

Charles would be the actual killer though, he could only be Chucky for X amount of time, say 30 seconds. It's no different to pig or ghost face crouching apart from the fact he can antiloop the smaller objects on the map like cars. He is supposed to be good with loops to make survivors unsure and fear them, the reason his power is short is so that he can't antiloop then forever.

I guess that could be interesting. They could sort of expand on Demo's teleport ability. Maybe have a few dolls that can be placed around that he could channel his soul into for some time with a longer undetectable status than 2 seconds. IDK, but that usually what I think about when I hear about the Child's play franchise being added. I think the devs could easily think of animations to facilitate either form considering that voodoo is a real thing in-universe.

That idea sounds good too, a bunch of good guy dolls either laying on the ground at the start of the match or you place them yourself during the match.
If they are automatically placed at the start of the match the dolls could stay in the position you despawn from them.
If they want to give the survivors warning he is the doll they could either give the ardoey dembella chant, not sure on the spelling, chant or just a loud thunderclap

Good guy dolls that say Chucky catch phrases if survivors walk to close would be awesome.

Honestly, size really wouldn't matter. They could just add a new 'carry' to the game. Just make him drag a survivor by their leg or something and throw them onto a hook. I mean, Hag is pretty short and she manages to carry survivors fine, so I can't see why Chucky wouldn't be able to be programmed in some way to do the same.

I mean, cant we get creative? PH already has another way of "hooking" survivors, why cant it be the same with chucky?

I am going off the fact that all the streamers I watch are saying his size wouldn't make a killer that could hook people. I am trying to give reasons this is not a problem at all.

I'd love to see Chucky added to the game. Especially if they give him the power to t bag. That would be hilarious

curse of Chucky and Cult of Chucky was still comedic horror imo and how Cult of Chucky ended i was waiting see if there was going to be night of the Chucky how the movies were going wasn't good.
i mean what movies i loved were child play 1 and 2 and bride of Chucky all others i hated btw the reboot tho different i loved it and it's had the best horror theme i heard in a long time.

Best thread on the forum now.

That'd be hilarious. Make his power just turning into the doll. Automatic mid-chase mindgames. 😁

That was my first thought lol. I have been thinking about it for a while, once I heard Chucky mentioned for dbd... Sad I know lol

If DBD had children as killer zombies and one of the teachers as another character.

I always figured the Entity would assist him with hooking survivors lol. He’s just so tiny that you would never see him coming. I guess playing the human version would work, but it would be nice if it wasn’t needed & you could just remain as the doll. I dunno, I think a Chucky chapter would be cool but require a lot of planning.

the games not balanced anyways why not add him

Just imagine how in this game a doll with a height from below your knee runs behind you, it would be absurd and just ridiculous
0 -
But also quite scary if he runs at you around a corner, unaware he is coming due to being undetectable lol

I highly doubt they would go w the human form. And how would he (the doll) see over the tall grass? It's literally taller than he is. You wouldn't be able to see #########... Lmao
0 -
The survivors could have an aura around them that shows only in a chase when obstructed by grass and only for a short distance, kind of like how the traps are seen by the trapper? Or scratch marks are brighter.

In the current game mechanics he would be difficult to create, so they would definitely have to introduce new mechanics, especially for his FoV. Perhaps he would have a bigger FoV? Idk.
Anyway, I would be Super excited if he came into the game. Perhaps allow both Chucky and Tiffany to be able to be played (kind of how You can swap between legions). Teen Andy or his mom as a survivor.
Others have suggested that perhaps Charles Lee Ray could make an appearance and his power is he possesses the doll. I’d be fine with that, and we can also keep Human Tiffany to have the same ability. 😄

That was my suggestion about playing as Charles Lee Ray in my original post above lol.
