Addons or no addons?

Even as killer main who tends to enjoy the lower tier killers (Legion and Doc) and plays high tier killers that can benifit massively from addons (Blight and Nemi), I just don't play with addons and I don't really know why, I think it's because I wanna sit on my Bloodpoints and watch the funny numbers on the colored squares go up. If you do play with addons or not, why so?

    It's more fun to play with addons.

    I like to watch addon numbers go down. I wasted all offerings and addons on Huntress once. I played Huntress without addons for a while after that.

    Usually play with Addons because they're a cheap boost to powers

    The game is designed expecting you to use two add ons, even if they’re just brown or yellow. Playing without add-ons is a bit like doing a “naked run” in an MMO, some people do it because they want to prove they can but there’s no reason to other than bragging rights.

    I usually do, but tbh it depends on the killer and my mood. Sometimes I just don’t feel like using them.

    I like to hoard add-ons and offerings while getting a Killer to level 50 and then some. However, at one point, I want to actually use most of those, if not all of them. At least the most significant ones (I ignore meme or straight out detrimental add-ons). So if I play Killer, I always slap at least one add-on on them.

    I simply can't go to the next prestige level of a Killer unless I've used most of their add-ons and offerings. It's a quirk of mine, but hey, at the same time, I get to explore and discover different playstyles for each Killer.

    I mean I do play games without perks or addons sometimes, just to understand what pain means or simply to derank a bit. But a normal game I want to win so would be silly to play without addons when they help you.
