What's something that was nerfed/removed that you miss?
Title. I miss the old hex ruin- the difficult skill checks. Imagine that with undying π I remember survivors would throw away whole games just to get the ruin.

I miss old Billy, not because of his broken add-ons, but because he was fun to play as and play against...
Now I see Billy once a week if I'm lucky and when playing as him it just doesn't feel that good, because I need to constantly watch the over heat meter. :(

I miss:
- Infinites
- Mori's without needing to hook
- No respawning hooks
- Instant flashlights
- Old BNP
- 7 blink nurse
Just kidding...
I miss:
- Well... I HAVE to add this: My legacy skins BHVR lost! (Give them back pls. Yes... Seriously! @not_Queen)
- Rarity of map offerings.
- Weekly/Fortnightly developer streams
- Pre-nerf hillbilly
- Community aspect of DBD. Half the players are console players with no communication. I used to consistently see familiar faces and now I rarely see familiar faces. It's sad.

Kinda miss old Freddy. Never played him myself, only played against.
but i do think they could have reworked the power enough to make it healthier for the game. Maybe one day they might add a char with his old power and call him the Sandman or something.

At first I missed old Ruin but it was only good against potatoes. Good players would just brute force it.
I kind of miss the lighting offerings, those were cool.

Old Balanced Landing and blue hue MacMillan's

Original Tinkerer. It used to be a power buffing perk.
Now it's a "get off my gen" perk that's boring to use and annoying to go against.

I miss old Freddy. He was one of the first killers I found success with as a baby killer at high ranks, as unbelievable as that sounds, and I never even needed to run old Ruin on him even when everyone ran Ruin all the time on every killer. Old green dress for reduced chances of getting skill checks and one of the drawings for insane power range and sniping survivors from afar... ah, to have good add ons.
He was fun and unfairly and harshly judged by the DBD hive mind that can never accept a dissenting opinion. Survivors would BM you all the time thinking you were doo-doo, which made it all the sweeter when you won. :D

I miss Deep Wounds actually being a threat. There was a point where you had to heal them or you would got down. now the time stops anytime you're running.
I miss old Freddy just a little bit because that build made more sense. if you're awake he can't hurt you in the movies so. though I do like the fake pallets in the dream world, they fit him perfectly.
I don't recall moris ever not needing at least one hook first, I could be wrong, I didn't paly at the very beginning

P2P connection and showing killer ping in lobbies. The gameplay itself has been significantly worse since dedicated servers and crossplay came out. Killers who live on the moon have a significant advantage over someone like myself who lives on top of the NA East server. I can immediately identify a console killer or survivor by the herky jerky movement, hits from a mile away, or mysterious lack of a hitbox. The gameplay itself is so far down their list of priorities.

Reverse Bear Trap timers automatically starting up once the Exit Gates are powered. I still resent the fact that that was taken away.

I miss the Dev's not being completely obsessed with giving killers power micromanagement in the form of resource management and thus hindering them.
Killers already have WAY TOO MUCH to micromanage in a game for any resource management to not become overwhelming/overly hindering.
Remember the sole purpose is resource management is to hinder your ability to do something making resource management inherently not fun unless its solely design around making the resource management itself fun.

Old Freddy, I'd buy a whole extra DLC just to play him. If the devs added an option/offering to play him again, I'd be really happy.
I rarely see Hillbilly at high ranks anymore, it's a shame because he was a really fun killer to play against.
The fact that I could actually talk to people after a match.
The look of the old Hex: Ruin skillchecks. I don't miss the perk that much, but the skilchecks looked really cool.
Now the only perk that causes red skillchecks is Autodidact :(

i miss the old billy. i dont really play him, but he was fun to go against.
his addons now are trash and that scream when he starts sprinting is awfull.
i also miss the old look of mc millan. the blue ink and lightning covered the decent grafik and gave it some personality... now it looks like a fan build it with a construction kit.
also old remember me could be fun...now its nerft into the ground and no one uses it.
1 -
Moonlight offerings. A lot of maps looked really cool and/or athmospheric with reduced or increased lightning, they were cool.

I never tried Old ruin maybe old thana

Hex ruin you've been ruined </3

The moonlight offerings i really miss, a really dark map in any of the macmillan maps was always really creepy( but a pain in the ass if it was against Claudette π)
I also miss old prayer beads on spirit. Don't get me wrong, it was without a doubt broken as hell but I alway loved using it for jumpscares and gen grabs
1 -
Old lery's and Macmillan
Billy's pre-butchered camera and animations, both 1st and 3rd person. Seriously BHVR... why did you even do this...
I miss not having the archives in my face literally every waking moment I'm not in a match. Now it pops up in the postgame screen, when I open the game, when I select a role, when I load into a queue after a game....it's so awful.
Old Freddy
You know what, I also miss old ruin skillchecks, I'm so bored doing gens now, and new ruin is just a dumb perk. Remember when they wanted to stay away from big synergies between perks? Yeeeah then undying and tinkerer happened...huh...

old fast vault angles

Everything really. Moonlight offerings. Brand New Parts. Mori on first down. Being able to grab survivors out of the hatch if they waited for you by it. No window blockers after 3 vaults. Infinites. Fast vaulting from a complete stop. Old Hillbilly and Nurse.
I mean I get why they changed it, but infinites taught killers that maybe there are times when you should break chase and go for other survivors, like ones on gens.
Also most of all I miss the point pip system. Used to be you'd pip for getting 10k bloodpoints in a match. Now it has so many bells an' whistles.
Keep it simple. You kind of know what you're getting into when you start a trial up nowadays. Should you though?
I also miss the Saboteur meta where you'd get all hooks broken except for the ones in the basement so the killers had to run Iron Grasp/Agitation and survivors had to make a choice. Do you sabo all of the hooks, or do you really want to be making basement saves all game?

I miss Nurse before her rework. Get rid of her old add ons but I want the blink CD removed.

Old Ruin
it rewarded practice and skill while allowing or new players to find the totem
Now itβs just a boring regression perk, yippee

Version 1.5.3 of Brand New Part.
I liked those back to back Skill Checks.

Old balanced landing and old instaheals as bs as they were.

I was coming in to say old pill bottle Freddy. Pill Bottle + Paint Brush was the ultimate hit-and-run experience back in the day.
Silent bell wallhack wraith can accomplish almost the same thing now, but it was always funny to see people who were falling asleep running in random directions because they had no idea where the attack was going to come from.

Docβs Iridescent King making Survivors in tier 3 Exhausted.
Sure, he doesnβt need it anymore because his rework made him a lot stronger, but it was so satisfying to hit a Survivor who kept relying on their Exhaustion perk to save them from outplays. On top of being really fun to use, it showed who was actually a good Survivor and who fell back on their perks.
Also I miss the old Adepts. Getting a double pip with a Killer you donβt play in red ranks with bad to decent perks (most of the time) can be hell. If itβs intended to be a challenge, then itβs a badly designed one because challenges also need to be fun. Only having to kill everyone was fun but not a cakewalk.

Old nurse. Don't mind some of her addons being gone, but with her cooldown, i see a lot less nurse games these days and I used to love going against her.

Old Freddy. I never really played as him, but it wasΒ fun going against him. Constantly being exposed (as in literally exposed, not DbD's 1-shot mechanic)? Choosing between him knowing where you are or regressing a generator that little bit extra? The falling asleep mindgames? I wish they had buffed Old Freddy instead of taking him out back and beating him to death with fake pallets, snares and gen teleportation.

I still win a lot of my Hillbilly matches but 4.4 Hillbilly is a real bummer. Wish theyβd rework his addons to not have downsides and Black Grease to just increase cooling for every flashlight held by a survivor instead of being touched by it. Like be better than the yellow cooling addon at least.
