Should DBD have children killers?
There is no children killers, and I think it would be cool have one. Should children killers be added?

I don't personally have a problem with, say, Samara from The Ring being in the game, it would be pretty cool actually. That being said I vaguely think there are issues in some countries with violence involving children that might be a hurdle?

Not sure if it would be cool to throw pallets at children tbh.
15 -
We have Legion, who are a group on teenagers. I think that's as close as we'll get due to censorship.
It would be kind of cool, but it's very unlikely.

im pretty sure dev said they wont do any character below the age of 18, i cannot get excate quote

Looks ar freddy... Are you sure about that.

Yer plusbif we start haveing child killers then child survivors would be thrown up and that would be a huge can of worms having a game where you kill and beat kids violently
4 -
I think Chucky would be funny. Also I see there no problem... I mean in dbd, killers can't die and with that, children as killer would not die. Should be ok for a 18+ title imo.

Springtrap alternate skin Pedobear 🤦♂️

Obviously the difference is whether or not the children are depicted in the game itself. Freddy is pretty damn evil though, he's the killer that if all the killers in the game had a convention and Freddy started talking about his "kids" the other killers would be like "Dude! Too far!"
6 -
Should probably rephrase as "killer children" to avoid confusion.
4 -
To be fair Chucky's a full grown man in a doll, he's not a kid.
There are a bunch of horror movies with killers who are kids though, some of the standouts might be:
- The Omen
- Children of the Corn
- Carrie
- Firestarter
- The Ring
- Pet Semetary
Also technically Spirit is the ghost of a teenager so in a sense there already is one. (Hag might be too, I'm pretty sure she was a young girl when she turned into Hag. And Huntress is a full grown woman but she's kind of like a kid mentally.)

II don't know, the animation of carrying a survivor would look dumb, and I wouldn't be afraid of someone I can kick...

No.

Depends on the killer in question and whether they absolutely need to be a child.

chuky would be fine has its just doll being possed by voodoo magic not really a child or alive

I hope bhvr makes it one day real.
The picture how chucky runs and then jumps on david's shoulders, just to mori him with a knife would be golden :D.
0 -
Reminds me of The World's Most Evil Invention from SNL
0 -
Well I’m mean technically Nancy, Quentin, Steve and Laurie are all technically still kids
0 -
Chucky isn't a child, its a grown ass mans soul thrown into a childrens toy.
I think the only horror villain they would have an issue with adding would be some children of the corn BS, and "Let the Right one In" <---Both of which are franchises nobody cares about tbh...
The only viable Kid'ish character I can think of is Trick R Treats pumpkin alien monster thing called Sam....which isn't even a kid....hell its not even human. Its a demon that was born in a pumpkin patch and runs around on halloween posing as a kid to kill people....
And not even joking....a Sam from Trick R Treat chapter would be pretty stylish!

Thats false, Sadako from the Ring is 19. The American Remakes are non-canon.
0 -
ok I never watch the Japanese one I more of a fan of Japanese the grudge and one missed call
don't really like The American Remakes Japanese movies.I also could put the the orphan but anyone who seen that would know it false too
there is movie call want to play something but it bad movie.
0 -
No.

Also BHVR would get into a lot of trouble by doing so.
0 -
For clarity's sake, I'm pretty sure we're talking killers that are children, not killers who target children.

Found the perfect fit :
ANGELA ANACONDA.

Huntress has the absolute best music "la la la Laaa laaaaaaaaaaaaa *evil laugh*". And this is coming from someone who's fave movie is nightmare on elm street *insert any movie number here* and I literally freak out when going against Freddy because he's awesome. But man, huntresses song is like, insane.
I should answer your question.
I think I'd care more about killers who are children than I would if say, it was a tiny doll (Chuckie). Like I'm not sure I'd like to see an Isaac or Malachi. Everyone whos in children of the corn is under 18 so it's a little sketch.
But like Carrie, it was her senior prom so I could see her being 18 (I don't remember the actual movie she was).
Gage from pet simetary as an example would not be good. At all. That'd be terrible on a multitude of levels.
1 -
Not that I care either way but why would they get in trouble?
0 -
Uh, using children in some things can get someone in trouble, this is a snow flake world now, a children killer in dbd, really? You cant pee ina pot without someone frowning on it, someone can find it very offensive and take it futher.

this sadly true

Heather too.

young killers? sure
young survivors? no

1Also all of Rin and legion. I think with Steve and Nancy they write it off because some of their outfits reflect them post high school. I don't think "18" really means anything its more like they wouldn't go past teenagers. But for the record I think they could do killer children, specifically if a licenses came up, survivors are probably off the table though lol
1 -
Only if it's a supernatural child with supernatural powers.
Legion already gets mocked and called 'not scary' and they're high school teenagers.
If we get a small child and they're not along the lines of Alma or Damien, then people will just die laughing at the 7 year old chasing David King with a knife.
1 -
the funny thing is the youngest killer in dbd is a tie between susey(legion) and lisa(hag) who are both 17
0 -
Though they could always just use the adult versions of both Alma and Damien to instantly dodge any issues that might come up with having children involved with violence.
I think the majority of potential younger-than-general-adult-age killers could probably be aged in a similar way (if they didn't already have adult versions from their origin series).
1 -
Yea, definitely; I'm just saying if we get a child it'd have to be supernatural like that.

Oh really because the last time videos got "in trouble" it was Trump blaming them for mass shootings (Fun fact DBD was one of the games he targeted as proof. Way before deathslinger) and despite Trump having a cult like following the outrage only lasted about a month. If Trump can not keep outrage going at something I think its safe to say we won the war.
So ignoring the "Im 14 and I am edgy and no one understands!" aspect of your reasoning, the reality of conservatives targeting video games is dead, Similar to something else conservatives constantly attacked until about the 90s, horror movies. A few decades ago it was the most evil thing since rock and roll and now no one cares. Thanks to facebook the type of people who get "offended" at stuff like that are now focusing all that energy on conspiracy theories and have been since Obama took office. If you actually watched Horror movies you'd know that even killing kids isnt taboo anymore (Looking at Myers) and there are plenty of shows, movies, and even other video games with killer children.
In conclusion Freddy is a pedophile and one of his add ons is a box of photographic he took, you could guess of what. Maybe that slipped under the radar because no one remembers that movie but I think its more likely that at this point you don't even have to be in good taste unless you are really really crossing that line no one cares
0 -
I think if done right it wouldn't be a big deal but I do think they'd have to be, minimum, teens. I agree with you about kids. So wait if bhvr says everyone has to be 18. Quinton was 17 in the movie, so I guess he could have dinged up to 18.
Well damn. I was hoping for maybe a classic Freddy and Nancy at some point but I guess that's out. Well unless she was from 3 instead of 1...
0 -
FYI Carrie is 16.
1 -
Wait wait wait...
hag is 17?
0 -
Yeah I dont see why not

You can take any anime character. They are all legal 100% 18 yo children.

yeah it was said in one of the old dev streams, everyone just assumed she was old because of her name and appearance but she is just a heavily mutilated young girl, if you look at her tome entry stroke of luck and the cutscene she is still in high school and it happened just before the events in her bio where she was caught by the swamp cannibals.
0 -
Don't see much chance of that ever happening. Could cause major conflict with the various game rating agencies.

Sachiko Shinozaki when? Corpse Party is a Nintendo IP. Go go.

Freddy was NOT a paedophile, the original film he was a child murderer, they changed him from a child molester to a child killer, and no where in the movie was it brought up he was a child molester. The reason being was because producers wanted to avoid comparisons to a story in California about a series of child molestations at the time of filming. Now the new one, fair enough but not sure what the rant was about, if BHVR put children in their game I just very much could see people not been happy, remember this is the snowflake generation and more to the question of WHY would you want to see children in this game? o.O
0 -
Yeah there is a big difference between children and teens though, I mean there is enough hormones about as it is (lol) but as I said to another why would any wish to see a child been a killer in the game I just personally feel it needs to stay out.
