    Why does it have to be either or?

    I don't have a problem with the gen spawns or totem spawns or frames per second. New graphics are nice but I'd be more interested in new killers than that.

    Now if they were doing a complete overhaul of underused perks and add-ons then I might vote for that. That would add up to at least a new chapter worth of new-ish content to try out.

    No matter how many times the community brings this up this is ALWAYS going to be a loaded question.

    The presumption being that the developers are actively choosing one over the other, when in fact this is not true. The dev team is split up in such a way that they are working on multiple things at the same time, the people working on bugs, maintenance, and game health, are not the people working on new chapters.

    More importantly, the people who work on new chapters will likely almost never ever be working on game health, this is because the people who work on new chapters are Artists who work on creating the concept art / character models / cosmetics / animations for new characters, Writers who lay out the story and lore behind the DBD universe and the characters therein, sound designers who record all the audio bits that make up new characters and their abilities, music for the theme of the new chapter, etc.

    These people are great at their jobs and most everybody will tell you they do a phenomenal job of bringing these characters and chapters to life, but the fact is you would not want them anywhere near programming, bugs, and general "game health" related issues or improvements. Simply because and this is kinda obvious: that's not their #########' job.

    i understand that but they can do a super good lore and killer concept for at least 2 patches and let the balance team work, what is ruining a lot our experience is that if they put new content in the game we get more errors and the old ones isnt fixed yet. They can work on new totem appeearance etc, rework skins or perks appearance (example: heart on survs like the smartphone game, it helps deaf people).

    Maybe they are choosing one or another, make tha game at least playable and pump skins and new killers for sale. Not accusing but it depends on how you see it.

    There should be definitely a third option - neither.

    but I can’t take the ‚Health chapter‘-Option because I firmly believe it will change nothing for those that are complaining now because they would find other things to complain about. And since this would mean no normal chapter, which is pretty much expected by the broader casual part of the community it could very well drive a good portion away..

    None, we need 2 cosmetics series, like The Ugly Christmas Sweaters.


    The Face mask series (maybe make it like the charity case, not in-game store but out-game pack (again, like the Charity case) that contributes to Covid-19 funds. It could be disposable face masks, or reusable face masks with different colors or maybe patterns that represent the characters, maybe even both and we get 2 head pieces per character. This would be great as it spreads awareness in case some people still somehow don't know, allows people to show in game support by wearing them, and be beneficial to the real world.) and the Shirtless series.

    This game definitely needs some rebalances, tweaks, updates, everything. Just a massive QOL update to get everything more even for the good of the game.

    We're already up to our necks filled with killers and useless perks. I'd kinda like for BHVR to slow down and get all the garbage perks in order. Nerf a few meta perks, etc...

    Neither, but a combination of both. The game needs content updates AND fixes to existing problems. They have to go hand in hand.
