Removal of Pinheads voice is incredibly disappointing

Yurik

When I heard Freddy was coming to DBD I was incredibly excited because having a killer who would have some (english) voice lines would add a lot of style and personality to the game. Imagine my disappointment when we got the edgy remake version who has no dialogue, no style and no personality.

So when Pinhead was announced I was cautiously optimistic, when I played him in the PTB and heard his voicelines for the first time I was beyond ecstatic. Here, finally, was what I had wanted with Freddy.

There wasn't many lines but it was enough that it actually felt like the character was behaving how they were portrayed in their films. These two aren't the silent stalkers like Jason or Myers, they behave in a specific way that should be represented in-game.

So I load up the game, purchase Pinhead, get into a match and suddenly there's no dialogue, either on teleport or on mori. "Surely a bug" I think, but no it happens over and over. I eventually see other people complaining about it as well and that it's under "Changes" instead of "Known Issues" implying that it is intentional. This is a shame, it really strips away a lot of what makes Pinhead Pinhead.

At least I can play Chatterer and have the teeth chattering noises. It's not much, but it adds that little bit of identity to a character that should be full of it. Just a shame it has to be purchased separately.

My god they removed his lines on the mori too? This is BULLSHIT!

I'm not getting excited for another license chapter, they just strip it and make it ass every time i have hope for one. devs are inconsistent dude and their non communicative let down asses

Ironically them removing the mori voiceline as well actually gives me hope that it was due to an error with the files and not a licensing problem. Maybe this can somehow be salvaged and he'll be the killer he should be, we'll see.
