BHVR, Why Do You Ignore Feedback?

Its just that, you know, the entire community pretty much unanimously agreed that Trickster needed a huge buff, and repeated their opinions several times over in the PTB and the Forums, but instead you just nerfed him.

I feel likeyou just don't care what your players think, and that's well... discouraging to say the least. This killer does not move fast enough to justify how worthless his power is. I feel like this Killer is just another gimmicky, sad attempt to draw in new players. Just remember that you guys have long term players still, though, not for long at this rate.

    It’s because they want everyone to play him before he gets buffed cause only PC was able to play him now that PS4 Xbox Nintendo can play him they can get feedback from everyone on all consoles so they can get feedback from everyone because remember when people said Deathslinger would be weak and bad in PTB now he’s the most annoying killer to go against.

    Trickster will be buffed next week mark my words

    His power is very difficult to balance. You buff it and you risk having old legion. It's not a matter of feedback, but bad design.

    He already is old Legion, but somehow even more atrocious at winning games than he was. He's just a disaster overall. I dig the aesthetic but his power needs MAJOR changes. And the feedback we suggested wasn't taken on board and he's still terrible.

    Who would've thought the people who've played your game for 5 years have a good idea on what makes a good killer yet they still don't listen

    I remember Almo talking about the iron maiden buff. He said he realized it was bad, checked the numbers and data, saw it was underperforming and gave it a buff. I'm remembering from memory so that might not be word for word but that's the gist of it.

    I'm not sure if people in BHVR aren't communicating or what but a perk gets put in the game and everyone says it's trash, nobody uses it (aside from huntress players purely for the reload), and it takes 2 years and someone checking the data to realize perhaps it could use 15 more seconds on the timer just to turn it from an absolutely worthless perk to a perk that at least has some situational value.

    I don't know what goes on inside BHVR HQ but it seems like not all the parts are working as one. I assume when they have a few months of underwhelming results for Trickster someone might realize he needs a buff and they'll give him a slight movement speed increase....maybe.....or maybe just 10 more blades by default.
