Content or Upkeep?

Would you rather get more new content in Dead by Daylight like new Killers, Survivors, and perks, or would you rather have new additions be less of a main concern and have bugs or current Killers, Survivors, and perks take a higher priority?

    It's really difficult to say, since both things are (for the most part) handled by different teams, but I definitely would like to see a game health update soon. Lots of fixes for common bugs, better optimization and general game stability and maybe some balance changes.

    Don't get me wrong though, I'm always happy to see new content when it's done well. I must admit, although I'm not the biggest fan of most recent chapters, I think the Devs have proven they can come up with some really interesting designs. I think they just need to take more time with them; I'd much rather see new chapters being released a little less frequently as long as they're well-made and mostly bug-free unlike a lot of the recent chapters.

    I like content but there are some things that need to be fixed. Like Haddonfield really needs to be addressed because that map is a nightmare for killers.

    Whilst The Twins were an interesting concept, the last killer I was honestly looking forward to was Legion. Since then, I've found they all get lost in the mix.

    A lot of the perks and powers are unused due several issues

    Survivor Perks: Aside from a small handful of stinkers, most Survivor perks are pretty good. The problem is that there also exist a large handful of Survivor perks that are just straight up overpowered and are generally considered "too good to not use", making all the good Survivor perks go mostly unused.

    Killer Perks: Killer perks have pretty much the exact opposite problem of Survivor perks, where only a very small amount of them are actually useful against decent Survivors, and the rest are borderline useless outside of maybe once-in-a-100 matches situation.

    Killer Powers: Most Killer powers just straight up cant deal with a competent team of players reliably and have to basically just hope the survivors make multiple massive and consequetive misplays every match, and several powers can just be completley crippled by bad map RNG, weather it be the map as a whole or just tile generation/placement.

    If these issues were ever properly fixed, it might as well be entirely new content anyways.

    Content

    I think this game is in a better spot than most people would like to admit.

    and while I chose new content, this doesn’t mean there shouldn’t be Balance changes, reworks for current stuff etc, especially perk changes should be done more maybe even in smaller scaling than they are doing now.
