Casual or Competitive?
I'm genuinely curious to know who plays the game casually just to have fun on either side or plays in a more competitive nature on either side?
Plus your reasoning for doing so.
For me, I did play this game extremely competitively back in the day but as of over the last year I just play to have fun on either side. I'm not going in to be a sweat as survivor nor killer, it's rare I do honestly.
I like to go in and just have good chases at least and some funny teabags(I know a lot of people find it toxic but to me I can't find a character in an online game doing an action toxic. It's funny asf, whether I play killer or survivor) and as killer I like to go in and just mainly throws hatchets with Huntress to get some good hits.
Although I'm not a fan of sweaty and competitive players. I'm not gonna disrespect your opinion just because I don't agree with it. If it's extremely ignorant that's when I just won't respond.

this maybe should have been a poll.

Eh.
Honestly, I don't think it separates out that neatly. This is a competitive game - because it's a skill based PvP game.
It's not Fall Guys or Mario Party.
I'm fairly competitive by nature, and I have fun trying to win. However I'm not going to get my trousers in a tie trying to min/max every game or sweating for the 4k. I prefer to find my own style and the combination of perks that works best around it (currently an ungabunga mix of Surge/PR/Monitor/Plaything/Penti/Devour Hope/BBQ/Discordance/Tink/LP/STBFL).
I don't mind losing, but it does bother me when it feels like I either had no chance of winning or got RNG'd to death.

I like to play serious but considering I'm in Solo Q this barely happens, especially as survivor.
But when I play killer I would say I'm more of a casual mainly because of my First statement. When I see that the team is a solo one, I usually go slow on them. Otherwise, If I know I'm dealing with toxic SWF's or the likes, I go full tryhard on them. Also, I don't have patience to hold the game hostage for a 4K so I usually kill everyone when I down them, even if it's Just 3k

Casual, but as survivor I do like to finish all or almost all gens before I die or escape. As killer I try to get how many hooks I can before they die or escape.

Casual, how ever I can be pretty competitive
Which is why me and a few buds of mine are looking for people to scrim with and are looking for tourneys to enter :)

On the killer side it's completely competitive. Your brain is in overdrive trying to process information on every single detail why you're chasing someone. There's just a lot of things in the game you need to track off. When you have to sweat that badly to be good at the game I can see why people can get frustrated.
It's a direct opposite for me as a Survivor, My mind is just chilling listening to music. Sure they might be some hiccups where I mess up but there's three other people picking up my mistake for me.

I lean more towards casual because I don't like playing sweaty - it's just not fun.
As survivor I like casual where sometimes I escape, sometimes I die, and hopefully in both cases I got to participate in the match for a bit. Don't really get that with SBMM, mostly stuck in unfun sweaty deathloop.
As killer I'm able to control the game better since I don't care for kills. I only go for sacrifices with challenges and even then I tend to avoid those challenges. I mostly like just goofing off as killer, if survivors don't want to goof off with me they can leave. 😂

Casual. It's a video game I pay to play. If my revenue depended on it I would be a lot more competitive but hobbies are there to reduce stress, not add stress.

I'm more on the competitive side of things. I enjoy games most when I win

Competitive.

I used to be pretty competitive before sbmm was introduced. Nowadays I just 2 hook every survivor and let them leave. Being competitive in an unbalanced game will only bring you frustration so I have no desire to increase my mmr.

I hate that people treat it like one or the other.
I don't believe you can have a game like this where you compete against another team/player and have it not be competitive to some degree.
Just because it's a game and we play casually doesn't mean we can't also be competitive. I don't want to go into a match with an attitude where I'm not intending to win, but that doesn't mean that I'm running full meta every match and stressing that the RNG of a map hasn't favoured me etc.
It's very much middle of the road between a casual game and a competitive game, it has elements of both and I wouldn't call it decisively either.

Depends on the team I'm going against.
Are they sweating? Then I'm sweating.
Are they playing casually? I'll do the same.
