Why playing as killer feels like a job, while playing as survivor so relaxing and fun even as solo?

Wont ever play as killer again,it was useful to understand what should I do as survivor,but it was like I dont have a second as downtime,a wasted second or a mistake and whole game is lost, so much stress, so action focused,like fps.

    I have the opposite experience. Maybe you’re just not a good killer

    200+ hour.

    Really as survivor so much easier, all one need to do is gens, 3 people on the 3 gens, while one get chased and only task to waste as much time as possible.

    The pressure is on the killer, also survivors need to make mistakes which can be exploited by killer,also killer can only be at one place.

    So again the true power with survivors.

    I have like the exact opposite feeling of yours on the game. 😋

    If you think trying to survive while 3 potatoes trip over themselves and probably get you killed is relaxing kinda wonder what your definition for relaxing is.

    The flaw in that logic is that a smart killer that knows what he is doing wont let those 3 ppl on 3 gens happen xD

    I find Killer more relaxing than solo.

    Unless I am playing Nurse, fighting 5 trillion bugs and 4 Survivors isn't really relaxing either.

    Then don't play killer if it's a job for you. I enjoy playing killer if I feel like waking up. It's fun!

    There is more to do as a killer, and I am higher ranked as them, so the games are generally more difficult, I guess?


    Survivor is relaxing for me because I am not really playing to do anything but search for treasure. Lol.

    For me, I'm a 50/50 split solo survivor and killer. The killer is always more fun even if I'm being bullied because then I can just face camp one to death and feel like I had a good time.

    Solo survivor is also fun but when idiot teammates run a killer towards you, unhook without BT in front of the killer, or simply can't do a gen to literally save their lives it's not fun or relaxing it's rage-inducing.

    Long story short is that I can make any killer game somewhat fun, I cannot do that as a survivor.
