playing Killer used to be fun
As a survivor main it used to be fun to play killer every so often, without dedicating SO much time to get good enough to sweat for a few kills in a game. The game was generous enough that without camping or tunneling you could pull off a kill or two even if you're bad lol. Nowadays tho even low rank survivors know what they are doing in chase and there's so many advantages/good perks for survivors in a chase. I can't even use Dead hard now as survivor bcuz it's just straight up not fun or creative anymore. There's several surv perks that are just broken...
The few decent killers are pay to play and Billy's power is useless bcuz there is so many damn tiles everywhere.
I feel like the Devs decided to favor survivors knowing that role was what more popular? But the way the game has evolved it's literally no fun to play killer anymore. It makes more sense to me that the killer should heavily overpower the survivor in chase and the teams of 4 swf can either get really creative or just have fun even if a few people die.
I'm a survivor main and it's dead obvious to me that Killers really need some more love if this game is going to stay popular and keep evolving

As a survivor main I dont struggle to 4 k with my main killers (Bubba, Spirit, Nurse, Doctor) most of the time. Thanks tryhard builds.
But even if I have to do a challenge with lower rated killers I am usually able to get at least 2 k even if I am not very used to play them.
In my opionion it was never easier to play killer than since the blight release whre combination of nerfed maps and introduction of ruin-undying came both in clutch, Ds nerf came a few months later.. Even with some smaller nerfs (one time use of undying, pallet city gideon and now the boon perks) the game is WAAAAAAAY more easier to play as killer compared to 2019 or 2018.

Think about it, just to function properly, this game needs 80% of the playerbase to be survivor players. That is why they cater to them, they are quite literally the vast majority of players.

Did it?
Because killer gameplay is incredibly flat compared to a good survivor match.

It doesn't matter if it seemed easier back then. Killers have a lot more to deal with now. The endlessly chained loops of old Ormond may be gone, but now there's boons, Soul Guard, new Badham, new Coldwind, new Crotus Prenn, Blast Mine, Flashbang, Power Struggle. Survivors are getting smarter, holding W and using medkits only to heal themselves. And killers like Wraith and Spirit which once stood a chance against good teams no longer do.

Well any survivor main who isn't blinded by their own bias knows how much the game is in their favor most of the time.

I can back this because I have more fun playing solo queue survivor than I do playing killer. Killer is boring and exhausting it's the same old ######### different day. There are tonnes of these kinds of posts why are the devs not taking any notice and doling something about it. Incase they haven't noticed the playerbase is slowly declining. I reckon it works both ways cos survivors have had comments about the game which were alright and the devs still don't pay attention.

That may be true, but for the game to function it's need to be at 100%. You can't just neglect the 20% just because it's only 20%. Without the killer you have no game
