Supernatural DLC speculation
Comments

"You should show me some respect. I dragged you out of hell..I can throw you back in." YASSS to the DLC. I've said Supernatural for 3yrs now lol but I want Cas..and Dean..😭😭
3 -
They could always do Cas as a legendary skin for Dean and possibly Bobby or Mary as a legendary skin for Sam? There’s honestly so much they could do and I’m paying for it all. 😂
1 -
I've never watched the show and confused this for Smallville, and was wondering why Superman would be a good fit for this game lol
1 -
You thought survivors were OP before. Wait until they can fly. Superman coming in 2021.
1 -
Bobby & Mary would be awesome. Jo too. But Castiel is a must for a legendary skin 👀
0 -
I feel like Cas has became just as important to the show as Sam and Dean. So I could definitely see him being a legendary skin. I just don’t think he’d work as a separate character. I could see them doing something similar to Ash and just releasing them as survivors, although I would love a map. They could do a graveyard and have the impala outside of it as an Easter egg. 😭
2 -
But I wanna smite the killer as Castiel...🤣🤣 Legendary or not I'd be throwing money at my TV lol. I wonder what their sayings would be if put in!?
0 -
Yeah I can’t see him being a separate survivor either. Even though he became a main character too, it makes sense that the 2 survivors would be Dean & Sam and then whoever else as legendaries. Better as a legendary than nothing at all though :)
I never even considered the possibility of a graveyard. That’s a neat idea! And yessss that would be amazing if they included the impala! It’s iconic. A rabbits foot would make for a memorable Supernatural charm too 😂
1 -
It would for sure be Dean and Sam..I know..but my love for Cas...😭 Is it to much to ask for at least 4 survivors? Lmao..that's a joke but still. I hope this becomes a thing.
1 -
I like the idea of a graveyard, but what about the men of letters bunker??
(Also Rowena as a legendary skin PLEASE)

Take ma money!

Cas would need this line

"HEY ASSBUTT" *proceeds to smash Michael with a pallet*

I’d pay a whole ass paycheck just for this toxic Castiel behaviour LMAO 😂

OH YES PLEASE
I WANT TO KICK SOME DEMON ASS!

Thanks for linking the video. Nice to see his reaction more in context. And I have to say. its seems go more into the direction "Yeah, that's possible". And I have to agree it would be possible. Maybe tricky to come up with a killer, because some iconic villains are out of question beeing too much related towards religions. And to be honest in comparison to similar shows like Buffy, where it wouldn't hard to do the Master or Drusilla. I wouldn't even say most villains on the show would be considered iconic. On the other hand it would be a licence that get's carried by the Survivors so. I don't know.
2 -
No problem! A lot of us definitely have our hopes up and it’s been brought up a lot, so I agree that it’s at least a possibility.
As for the killer, I figure they could take something from the early seasons. The most memorable that comes to mind is the wendigo, which is the first monster they faced I think. You’re right in saying that none of them are exactly iconic, as there’s been so many.
On the other hand, I wouldn’t mind if they just went ahead and made it a paragraph. It would be cool to be a full chapter but not necessary. The survivors would be the main attraction. Just like Ash & Bill.
0 -
What if they make the killer the leviathon? I feel like they would be the best for a killer, but that's just my opinion.
There's also another idea I had thats kindove dumb, where the devs make a half licensed half original chapter, where Sam and Dean are the survivors, and then the devs make their own version of a monster (like a werewolf, vampire, etc) and we could also get the bunker as the map 👀
0 -
Oh yeah. Those things are creepy as hell, they’d definitely make for a good DBD killer.
The bunker would be cool (I know, I know, people will complain because of an indoor map. Unless they did it where it’s outdoors but has the bunker in the middle? Kinda like the plague’s map.) and as for the killer, I wouldn’t mind that at all. If that were the case, I wonder if the licensing company would work alongside the devs to create a killer they can agree with? Unless the killer was released entirely separately. I don’t know how that would work 🤔 Interesting idea though.
1 -
I did think about the bunker but I’m just not sure how it’d work as a map as I don’t think it would be big enough. A graveyard is just very Supernatural and they could do some really cool things with it.
I also found this online:
This seriously needs to happen. 😂
1 -
I think the likely thing that would happen would be for them to just release Sam and Dean. However, they could do some cool things with the Wendigo and even the Scarecrow. I’ve wanted a Scarecrow killer for so long. I also imagined there to be different scarecrows scattered over the map and it can teleport to them. So you just never know when one of them is going to come to life.
0 -
YOOOO I WAS THE ONE THAT COMMISIONED THAT😂😂
1 -
Really?! How crazy. It's so cool. I'm currently working on my idea for a Supernatural chapter. I'll link it in here once it's ready / posted.
1 -
That’s actually one of my most wanted Supernatural killers too. The scarecrow would be really cool. But yeah, I wouldn’t be surprised nor upset if they only gave us survivors lol
Also, looking forward to reading your idea for a Supernatural chapter!
1 -
I'm not a fan of supernatural, and nothing against those that are but I feel like Strangers Things has a bit more horror elements than that show. At least with stranger things the demogorgon is a pretty unique creature dreamed up by that show. What unique creature/monster from Super natural is an interesting character?
0 -
Is it safe to assume you’ve never seen it? There are numerous episodes that are genuinely really creepy & scenes that would give children nightmares.
They could give us the scarecrow, the wendigo, leviathan, etc. But on the other hand, Supernatural wouldn’t require a full chapter for DBD either. Just the survivors would be fine.
Supernatural is big on old legends and myths and bringing them to life, sometimes with their own spin on them. Stranger Things made up their own creature. They’re different, but they both fall into the horror category. Why compare the two? Just because SPN isn’t the same exact horror as ST doesn’t mean it’s a bad fit.
1 -
Why set a bar? I’ve seen a lot of people say, “well _____ isn’t like Stranger Things.” And to that I say....So? Horror isn’t in just one category. There’s a whole ass spectrum for it. Halloween, Evil Dead, Scream, Left 4 Dead are all different but they’re all considered horror. Some just play on different elements
1 -
Not only that but fought his own mini clones. was downed, forced to swallow one which then grew out of his shoulder into a full sized evil doppelganger. Had to fight and kill his deadite possessed friends and girlfriend, got possessed himself. Had to kill a deadite possessed old women, hold off an angry ######### tree, kill one pit witch and flippy deadite, one possessed medieval girlfriend, either over sleeps to the end of the world or has to kill another deadite witch, punches King Arthur AND deal with customers at S.mart!
Sam and Dean have feats but actually hasn't prevented them from running and hiding whilst figuring out what to do and they often fail at what they are doing!
Pretty sure the likes of Freddy, pyramid head, demo and more are under powered compared to their movie/t.v counter part! Even with the homebrew killers! I'm pretty sure a chainsaw to the back should always permanently cripple you, if not kill you, equally with a samurai sword, a metal club et all.
So, I agree! Doesn't really matter if a character has certain traits in their media of origin, if they fit the game in terms of what they represent it shouldn't matter.
2 -
As a fan of both, I can tell you that Supernatural has a lot more horror elements than Stranger Things. But it’s not a competition. Nightmare On Elm Street is more of a horror than Stranger Things, but that’s irrelevant as they’re both still horrors. One is just a slasher and the other leans more towards science fiction. There isn’t just one type of horror out there and if you look at what licensed characters we already have in the game you’d see that.
As already said, I think Sam and Dean would work best as a paragraph chapter like Ash. We don’t need them to come with a killer.
2 -
I would be fine with no licensed characters added to the game. With that said... Supernatural would be a perfect fit.
2 -
I’m not sure why but I just feel like this DLC is right around the corner. I’m leaning towards December being it (since upcoming in September might be Candyman?) and I could just be overly hopeful, but I dunno. I just have this feeling 🤔
2 -
It would be sooooo bad ass. Id buy every cosmetic just out of hype and id have a new main. David who?

I posted my perk ideas:
👀
0 -
I only mentioned Stranger Things because earlier in this very thread someone pointed to Stranger Things as an example of why it should be included. Again, no offense to those who like the idea but I'd prefer the game doesn't include things that are further and further from the horror genre. I have seen the show.
0 -
This is what I don’t understand. Supernatural IS part of the horror genre. It doesn’t come down to whether or not you like the show. It’s a fact. So how would including characters from a HORROR show bring the game further away from HORROR? You’re making no sense.
6 -
It's a question of where do you draw the line? Should BHVR consider adding goosebump monsters? If your argument is Supernatural should be classified as Horror in the same vein as ANOS, Texas Chainsaw Masssacre, Saw, Halloween, Evil Dead, Silent Hill, etc I'm going to disagree with you all day on that. Can you classify Supernatural as a Horror tv show? You can, but that's a hell of a stretch.
0 -
I mean theres no denying its a horror tv show. Some episodes are meant to be creepy, some funny, some drama, but its all horror. Its as horror as stranger things
6 -
That's the point of this game. People should watch the YouTube video "Why you wouldn't survive Dead By Daylight." It explains why people like Ash are at the mercy of The Entity. Entity would basically be Satan as it is a multidimensional being of pure evil with diverse powers. It gives killers buffs and makes them almost superhuman
5 -
Again, it's a question of tone. I understand you guys really like that show. I'm not saying it's a bad show. You can point to Halloween, ANOS, Evil Dead franchises where things went schtick but the overarching themes were adult material and Horror. I just don't agree that the tone matches the game. You are free to disagree.
0 -
I do disagree. Horror is a pretty wide swath. Evil dead tv show, tge one ash comes from, is super tongue in cheek as is part 2 and army of darkness. Supernstural is closer to pure horror overall than any of those if were talking about tone. Youre just simply wrong on this and it feels like youve only see one or 2 episodes of supernatural
5 -
Yeah, I’m with you on this. I understand not everyone wants the same thing in the game, and personal preference is fine. I’m not gonna jump on anyone like people do in the FNAF threads lol. But saying it’s not horror or fitting for DBD? THAT I don’t understand haha. As I always say, they don’t ONLY want slashers. They’re gonna keep expanding & licenses sell well, so there’s surely gonna be all types of horror characters from different horror categories in the future.
3 -
The fact you tried to compare Goosebumps and Supernatural tells me all I need to know. You clearly haven’t watched it. You even claimed that Stranger Things was more of a horror show, which it isn’t. Literally Google horror tv shows and Supernatural will be on every single list you find. For good reason. So it isn’t a ‘hell of a stretch’. You seem very narrow minded when it comes to what you class as a horror.
Supernatural doesn’t just have one centralised killer like Halloween, so why would you even compare the two? Supernatural has dealt with pretty much every sub-genre of horror you can think of. It’s no different from Evil Dead.
A few examples of the MANY creatures that appear throughout the show.
But you’re right. It’s not horror. It’s virtually a Disney Channel Original Movie.
5 -
I've already noted Evil Dead directly above your comment as an example due to it's comedic elements. At it's core Evil Dead is pure horror. At Supernaturals core it's a cw tv show. There's no point is arguing this further as you can't see the difference either due to your affection for the program or something else.
0 -
Thanks for clarifying what I already assumed. You’re a snob. You think because it’s on The CW it means something negative, which it doesn’t. Stranger Things is more teeny than Supernatural. Supernatural has an ADULT cast whereas Stranger Things primarily follows the lives of teens. Supernatural fits into this game and that’s a fact and I genuinely think it’s only a matter of time before we see it added. So I suggest you start saving up those BP as I know you can’t wait to play. xo

I mention CW because you cannot have a serious HORROR program on at 8pm network TV without cutting out a lot of material. I have seen several episodes of the show. I feel like i'm spinning my wheels here. I don't dislike the show, it's just nowhere near the tone of the game or the other franchises. I'm going to try this from another angle. Imagine you own the Hellraiser Franchise. You're already going to be protective of your property against a project like DBD because of all the various other Franchises they incorporate with it. Now you start adding in franchises like Supernatural. Is that going to make you more likely or less likely to give them the rights?
How Wikipedia describes supernatural:
Genre
missing:
HORROR0 -
Please don’t use Wikipedia as a source. Anybody can edit that. One of its genres is horror. And that’s a fact. Nothing you say will change that. It doesn’t matter if it airs at 8pm. It can get away with that because it doesn’t have nudity or profanities. It can still be pretty gory. The first Halloween virtually has no gore, does that mean it isn’t really a horror movie? Because essentially it’s just a guy walking around in a white mask and overalls for the majority of the film. And what exactly does Hellraiser have to do with anything? If I owned the rights to those movies I wouldn’t have an issue with them being in a game with Supernatural characters. Just like I wouldn’t have an issue with them being in a game with Stranger Things characters. So I’m not entirely sure what point you were trying to make, but it failed.
You’re acting as if we want Monica Gellar and Rachel Green in the game and our reasoning is because Friends have done Halloween episodes before. Supernatural fits. End of.
There’s no point in you replying as you’re wasting your own time. As you can see by everything you’ve said, we don’t agree. So we might as well stop here. This is my last response to you.
6 -
Okay you go on Wikipedia and get into a revert war with the people on there about it belonging in the Horror genre. You know what, your cunning critique of my opinion on where Supernatural falls as a show has got me to change my mind. The Exorcist, Halloween, Hellraiser, Supernatural, Texas Chainsaw Massacre....yeah. Sounds great.

If anybody is interested, I’ve created a thread where can can discuss all things Supernatural.

I really hope not for a myriad of reasons.
Mainly because CW shows are terribly written and acted, and I think we should strive to have good quality media in the game.

But who would be killer and survivor?
Dean or/and Sam as survivor? This would be the obivios choise.
Or Demon-Dean or Lucifer-Sam as Killer? This could work. It could even work when Sam and Dean had both roles killer AND survivor.
Or Rampage-Castiel or Lucifer as Killer? Would be the first time a killer could use "holy" powers to purge the people trapped inside the rift.
Or shapeshifting Leviathans as killer (which would totaly never work against SWF)?
Or a demon as killer, who is nothing but flying dust and can poses people? That would be AWESOME if done right, but the BHVR has barly done anything right, so I have no hopes for that.
It must be someone special as killer, BECAUSE the show had already every kind of killer in the show, so if they pick someone who was only in one episode it would feal weird.
