Would it be better if DBD gave number values instead of Slightly, Moderately, etc.

There are many add-ons in this game that sound like they should be doing a lot, but if you look at the real numbers that are actually worthless. (I.E. Rat liver for Demogorgon says slightly despite being best add-on for him.)

If players were to actually have the numbers they would have a better ability to judge add-on effectiveness without having to actually try them.

    I think it depends on the perk/addon. Sloppy Butcher for example would make no sense being described like "increases bleeding frequency to 3 liters per kilometer".

    They really should at least have a page in-game going into full detail of what it does to the killers powers, we shouldn't have to figure it out by ourselves.

    yeah when "slightly" can mean anywhere from 5-50% or more, I think its just better we know the amount. I really don't see the point of using the "slightly, moderately" system besides to just obscure information for some reason.

    Just give us the numbers ffs.

    For "Slightly, Moderately, Considerably, Tremendously"

    I'm not a numbers person, so it would actually be worse for me if they put raw numbers in -- and it would be a pain for them because, any time they tweaked the numbers, they'd have to update the text. If there were going to be numbers, though, I'd do better with ratios or percentages. So, if you want to say "It makes XYZ 50% faster" that's better for me than, "It subtracts two seconds from XYZ."

    It would be tremendously better.

    voted for the wrong choice - thought "for slightly, moderately, tremendously" meant those would be replaced for numbers. im still not entirely sure why "for" is in front of all the options...
