What's an unpopular opinion that you hold.
The kind that will make people hate you for even having. I'll go first:
Victor should not be able to down survivors, only latch onto them. Nothing more fun than being slugged to death! Just joking.

Legion is the most underrated killer in the game
21 -
Solo Queue is mostly fine
It's matchmaking issues that make it look worse than it is
47 -
Tinkerer is broken when used against solos and should be nerfed.
Flashlights should only be used for saving.
Nurse needs a complete rework. The excuse that she has a high skill cap does not justify her level of power once fully mastered
23 -
That Trickster is actually easy to 4k with so long as its not a death squad.
7 -
People going easy on their opponents just makes the matchmaker worse than it already is.
and
It's currently impossible to balance the game for high level play without completely screwing over the majority of the playerbase.
5 -
Playing solo Q is hard
6 -
Killers should have corrupt intervention or noed as base kit so they can use other perks vs swf
9 -
If you run melodious murder and one of the special blade addons then I would agree
2 -
There should be more stealth in the game.
24 -
Nurse is completely OP and needs to be changed immediately and Gearhead is a decent tracking perk
10 -
Plague was the most fun on release and survivors choosing not to cleanse themselves or Plague choosing not to cleanse fountains were both fun and interesting strategies~
(I was, temporarily, a Plague Main who only used sickness and had a ton of fun. Now I can’t stop survivors from spamming fountains and forcing my secondary power on me when the use all fountains)
3 -
Huntress's base speed should be 115. Every bush or rock is practically an infinite against her.
6 -
Trickster and clown are not weak killers, tinkerer needs a nerf and bubba is op.
2 -
EGC is a bad mechanic and should be removed from the game.
7 -
Nurse is the most balanced killer in the game because chases against her are a matter of skill vs. skill.
19 -
It’s hard to rank up if you’re not actively trying to be sweaty. I float around rank 3-4 and i only use non mega builds cause it’s 10x more fun.
3 -
dead by daylight is the most boring game to watch live
8 -
All meta perks should be nerfed. (Yes I’m talking about both sides)
IMO perks should only be a small bonus, not game-changing
3 -
The game is not survivor sided and people complaining don't want to accept that they lost.
18 -
Blights J-Flick was fair and balanced, nobody understood the easy counter for it and instead of adapting choose to complain about it.
6 -
The milk should always go before the cereal.
10 -
There's no such thing as tunneling
11 -
You, sir, are a monster.
23 -
That's not unpopular.
9 -
This isn't the kind of game where direct counters should exist.
Players should have to use widely varying strategies that they switch between on the fly instead of doing the same four things over and over and over.
1 -
Keys should only be able to be used after the Exit Gates are open.
This puts them in the same realm of power as Mori's and is therefore fair.
13 -
Survivors should be locked into the Unhooking animation the second they click on a hooked team mate. The rapid fake-out and bombdiving and crowd-rushing the one hooked guy is absurd and survivors who want to just run out in front of a killer like they're nothing deserve to be auto-grabbed.
14 -
Most of my solo queue teammates are actually pretty good at the game.
11 -
If this game had no grind no one would play it.
12 -
Toxicity is almost a non-issue in-game, and it's just people that are blowing it way out of proportion, and labelling playstyles and mechanics that are completely harmless as "toxic".
3 -
The Devs actually have done a pretty good job, as long as you play the game for fun and not to consistently win.
8 -
You win. Congratulations
3 -
Deathslinger is balanced
Twins are actually fun to verse
Exhaustion perks = Crutch Perks
Infectious Fright Nurse is disgusting and should be looked at
8 -
Twins are fun to play against and to play as, and do not need as many changes as people like to think.
Cleansing against Plague is actually worse for her than not cleansing, provided multiple people cleanse.
Pyramid Head is one of the best designed killers BHVR has created in recent memory, now that the lose/lose situations are mostly removed.
Freddy needs another rework - one that merges the Dream World aspects of old Freddy (slowdown, dream transition and pulling into dream, aura reading) with the powers of new Freddy. (snares, pallets, teleport)
4 -
If a killer brings lightborn the item should be retained. Killer shouldn't be able to just delete items, you see less people even playing a flashlight since the lightborn buff.
Survivors should be able to ban a killer prior to readying up for matchmaking. Swf get one ban. Killers should be able to ban a perk in the pre match lobby. Any survivor not meeting ban requirements within the time go in with only three perks.
Casual mode and ranked mode should be implemented and swf, nurse and spirit are not allowed in casual. Survivors should have kindred and small game basekit in ranked. Killer should have noed basekit in ranked.
The meta is boring.

EGC already existed when I started to play DBD. How it was before it? You would something else to replace it or just the remove of it?
Milk should be banned from a bowl full of cereals. (I really eat my cereals without milk, and I don't understand how people eat them with milk. 🙈)
1 -
Insidious Basement Camping Bubba should be considered griefing, because it's purposely exploiting Solo queue survivors and their lack of communication abilities. It serves no purpose aside from a selfish sociopath gaining pleasure from the misery of 4 PAYING strangers.

You're telling the truth. To me, at least. If I'm trapped in some secret dimension with 3 strangers and a supernatural serial killer, and I have no weapons, wouldn't stealth be my best offense and defense?
As a killer, wouldn't stealth greatly increase the odds of me nearly effortlessly slaughtering quartets of random folk?
I too think this game should emphasize stealth more.
3 -
Bacon isn't all that great
5 -
Infectious fright should only work on basic attacks
2 -
HOW DARE YOU SIR.
9 -
Just because Nurse takes some time investment to get good with, doesn't make her a healthy addition to the game
8 -
Agreed.
Sausage>Bacon
1 -
Survivors would open the gates and t-bag until the Killer forced them out.
There was also no time limit, meaning opening the gates was pretty much a guarantee that everyone alive would get out
8 -
Hard agree.
4 -
Agree. I was looking for this before I wrote it myself. Glad someone else shares this *coughs in a way that sounds like fact* opinion
1 -
See you in Hell
7 -
There was no time limit. No such thing as 99%ing doors. No kills after 3 minutes. No annoying sounds.
It was better for me, and I would love to see EGC gone. Reduced to atoms for all I care.
EDIT: Here is an image:

Dead Hard is useless. . 😟
