Another reason to not take BHVR seriously
I haven’t even played the PTB cause I’m at work right now, I’ve watched some streams and gameplay and IMO this “killer” seems like a joke. Another projectile throwing “killer” who looks like he just left a Korean Pop Band after party. It just doesn’t feel like Dead By Daylight. At this point they might as well add spongebob and give him red eyes and call him a killer. I just feel like this chapter was made for shi*s and giggles.

mean honestly, its not like we have a silly pink elephant with its tongue sticking out, or colorful bunny rabbit mascots or anything RIDICULOUS like that, amirite? Or [BAD WORD], maybe even just some dude in a mechanic jumpsuit holding a big ass kitchen knife. How stupid would that look? I mean [BAD WORD] its not as if there could ever be a scary character that wasnt just a blood spattered monster or something similar. No sir. Never seen any creepy characters with bright clothes and ecentric smiles and crazed laughing. Nope. Never. Couldnt happen.

I’ve seen it, and i feel kinda disappointed. It doesn’t feel like a horror game at this point. But i’m sure it’ll hopefully get better. And the new survivor is just basically Asian Jane. She has a perk to stop scratch marks, and an exhaustion stun perks.
I really hope it’ll start to fit on more with the game.
And one other thing. The lobby doesn’t fit at all. It doesn’t feel like set dressing it feels like we have a whole new set.

Okay, if we get a Spongebob character in DBD, we aren't going to get Spongebob as the killer. There is a better alternative that has a fleshed out backstory and is actually terrifying.
BHVR please add

For me personally, this feels like the most interesting original killer they've done in a year. I guess I was never sold on being a short orange goo man that bonks into walls, or sold by any part of the twins. And to me, nothing will ever stick out more in this game than a zombie cowboy with a gun. Seeing Michael Myers run around in a wild west saloon as well will always look comical
There were already 22 killers before this. I can understand if it's not everyone's cup of tea, but if nothing else, it's absolutely something unique and different

I don't care for the current skin but hopeful for the future. Think it's good that devs are adding a killer easy to learn for new players. I also like the counter play he encourages.

Wait, wait, wait- aren't you the SAME person who berated others for complaining about the new HUD, as 'spoiled, entitled children who don't appreciate anything the devs give us'?
Guess it's doesn't apply when you're unhappy about something, but I'd urge you to take your own earlier advice and 'stop acting like a spoiled child, because the devs didn't need to give us anything'.

Ahhhhh yessss. Another person who thinks killers only have to be UGLY, DISFIGURED, DRESSED IN DARK TONES etc.

are you really comparing skins with a whole character? u missed the point dude

Nah son, I think you missed the point. Theres silly stuff in this game. Its not 100% gruesome horror. As well as the fact that just because its not gorey or monstrous, does not mean its not horror. Not everything has to have a dark tone to be scary. Clowns for example, are typically very bright. Yet for whatever reason are considered horrific and scary. Get out of that close minded way of thinking and embrace the fact that horror is incredibly broad, just as humor can be

No no I have to stop you right here. A skin isnt comparable to an entire character. Second: Many (me including) despite the silly skins aswell.
Just because silly skins exist doesnt make silly killers valid.

Alright man, lemme say this. Imagine youre walking down a street, middle of the night. In the distance you see this walking rave of a man stride up to you and he starts chucking neon knives at your face. Are you just gonna stand there and be like "nah man youre not a monster and youre not covered in gore. You aint scary." Or are you gonna be running the ######### away yelling about a human glowstick trying to gut you?
The dudes creepy wether you agree with it or not.

Horror is not only completely subjective, but a very broad field. Ghostface is meant to be a silly man who goes around causing panic by committing murder. The Spirit is a ghost with daddy issues. This guy is an attention-hungry flamboyant megalomaniac who murders people for the glamour. It's all in how you look at it.
With regards to backstory, I can guess you haven't read much into it yet, because you are precisely on about with what he's supposed to be. Every killer is meant to have a certain flaw that brings them to the entity: plague has self-righteous devotion, Myers has pure evil, does it for Jigsaw, Spirit has resentment and a not inconsiderable grudge, Charlotte just wants to protect Victor, Ghostface does it for the fun, and this guy is a total attention-######### who does it for the stardom. Sure, it can be sh*ts and giggles if you think about it in the sense of Asian James Charles dyed his hair purple and kills people with a bunch of flashy darts, but it could also be the thirst for attention and recognition that brings people to do awful things in the name of fame and showmanship.
Aesthetically, I don't like the new killer much, just as how I don't like hag or twins, but that's entirely based on my perception of horror. Besides, it's been a long time since DBD was meant to be a horror game. It's clearly transitioned into the slasher genre, which is even more broad than horror. Imagine how ridiculous it is for this grey tree monster with a mouth flower face to be chasing you while nodding the entire time, or a bunch of teenagers who you can t-bag after giving them a concussion with a hunk of wood.
I don't mean to be the one to tell you to change your mindset, but if that's your vision for DBD, then I think you would have been, and will continue to be, disappointed, and maybe it's time to find another game. There are plenty of fish in the sea, and if you don't subscribe to this particular genre, you could try out the myriad of more "horror" oriented games. I would recommend Bloodborne; it's terrific and horrifying, and not much of a slasher.

You clearly don't think things through.

Nice try. I play dbd once a week for no more than 2 hours and have been drawn away from this game for months now but that doesn’t mean I can’t watch content creators and YouTube videos of Dead By Daylight. I’m simply stating that the killer looks stupid. You think I’m demanding for this killer to be removed or changed sort of like how you and other 99% of the forum members that DEMANDED the HUD to be removed? Lmao oof. But hey, why not call me out and insult me or at least TRY to insult me at a post that has absolutely nothing to do with this. Nice try.
