Dead By Daylight is #########
My username, which is made 3 years ago, is completely wrong. This game is absolute dog #########. Tbh, once i stopped playing this game i noticed my life was so much happier. I decided to start playing it again and found out the players haven’t touched grass. So, if you’ve touched grass before good luck on this game. This game is too ######### competitive and the survivors are toxic as ######### even when they win (which is about %80 of the time). Do yourself a favor and don’t buy this game bruh.

Usernames don't lie. I'm glad you think dbd is awesome after all these years.

idk but it seems pretty unhealthy to let a game dictate how happy you are in your life?
if you don’t enjoy the game then please don’t play it. That’s okay. You don’t have to like it. You can give your feedback of course but try to be constructive otherwise there is no value to it.

An all too common thing on this forum unfortunately.

Crazy, I never bm as survivor, yet I’m getting smacked on hook often because I didn’t let the killer down me easily.

Name doesn't check out.
Peak Dbd was early 2019 imo anyways so makes sense.

What did I just read?
I have a lot of fun with this game still. Yes, it can be very frustrating at times, but for the most part - if I approach it with the right mindset - I enjoy my time on killer and survivor.
I think that a lot of people have rose-tinted goggles regarding how this game was back then. A good example: basically every map had 3 or 4 spots where survivors could go down/crawl and be impossible to be picked up. And that's before we got into stuff like old OoO, old DS etc.
I started somewhere in the middle of 2020, and this game was bleh. I came back just under a year ago (right after SBMM launched) and have had a blast since.
I've spent the last few weeks maining survivor, coming from being a killer main - and I'll say that even proportionally speaking, I see way more toxicity from survivors than killers. There's something about the role that really just brings it out of people.

If a game ever starts affecting your health then best thing for you is to absolutely cut it off. I'm not a naturally competitive person, which is probably why I enjoy DBD so much, but I also know if I've had a crap day or am in a bad mood that DBD is unlikely to make me feel better. So I don't play. I have my comfort games and DBD isn't one of them lol

I agree! DBD is a pretty sweet game :)

What an interesting turn of events 🤣 ur not wrong tho, I came back and in a month got tired of dbd again

No, it is not the role. It is the people playing the role. I am not a toxic survivor, because why would I be? Now, do not get me wrong, many would argue I am a toxic killer merely because I play the game optimally, but even if that were true, then surely it would translate to my survivor play? And yet it does not. No magic barrier turns me into a degenerate once I select that role.

Naturally. 'Survivors are proportionally more likely to be BM' =/= 'all survivors are BM'.
It's a role that tends to make people a bit toxic because for a lot of the game, you're lulled into a false sense of security - and then everything goes wrong.

I think you might enjoy reading this post from the ancient times before I joined DBD.
I think it explains quite a bit of the reasoning why the game can be so toxic.

I feel that. Honestly Toxic survivors create toxic killers and toxic killers create toxic survivors. I will use a flashlight to bring at a pallet to try and get more distance. I do not click the flashlight and yet I am toxic because I use this item the way its intended. Killers will always be unhappy the survivor can run and loop and the survivor will always be unhappy because they can be hooked. I always take getting hit on hook as a badge of honor now cause I clearly got under you skin 👿

Yeah I've seen that one before - also a psychologist by study if not by career :)
Very interesting read.

so you are telling me the side that has 4x as many by numbers does it more. Who would have thought!
0 -
Not gross.
Proportionally.
Even taking into account the numbers, the survivor side is much more likely to be BM. While my sample size isn't enormous, I'm currently noting this down in games I'm in (which already eliminates one survivor) and the trend is pretty damn clear.
27 games out of 172 have had a killer doing something 'toxic' unprovoked.
94 out of 112 winning games have had survivors doing something toxic unprovoked. This would probably be more if I wasn't taking up a slot.

For me it's because back then crossplay wasn't a thing yet. Don't get me wrong I love having crossplay now, but back then on console in my area there wasn't that big of an abundance of players in the console community in red ranks back when rank based match making was still used. This meant that it wasn't that uncommon to run into the same players on occasion. In a way it felt like it made you more connected to the community and it was kinda cool having everyone just know eachother if they played alot like I did at the time.
Nurse and Billy also hasn't been nerfed at the time. They were alot more fun to play even if I wasn't as decent with them as I am now. Also never had that big of an issue with old object. I think it was just ds that annoyed me more. And I really only recall like 1 or 2 spots where you couldn't pick survivors up back then, and even then I don't recall a time where I personally had to deal with it.

Nice try, but nicknames are the reflection of the soul.
