Meme DBD: I have more fun when the game isn't taken seriously. Give me funny plays, hilarious cosmetics/gamertags, meme builds, etc.
Game is more fun when the survivor/killer are messing around and not sweating, it’s also hilarious seeing Jeryl or Scoops Ahoy Jonathan.
When survivors on my team bring meme builds my respect for them goes up especially if they bring no mither and self care, their names can be hilarious too or matching too such as these dwights in the photo.
The game is honestly much more enjoyable when the survivors aren’t sweating to try and escape and the killer isn’t sweating for a 4K and just messing around.

Horror DBD: I want genuine jump scares, stress (in a good way), fear, etc.
Maybe a bit of both but I would love to see DBD to be more scary.

I got some genuinely good jump scares from Sadako when she first came out. I forgot how exciting it was to have that in this game, and I missed it. It was scary but fun.

I wish the game was more gore, like altering the survivor models when killed by a RBT (reverse bear trap), moried by the demogorgon, etc. I guess that fits for horror.
I also like the "z movie" feeling dbd can have, and I wish some funny events were made for April Fool.

I didn't play against a lot of Onryo's when she came out tbh. I can't remember the last time I played against one. It's such a shame she is so terribly weak.😥 I would play her more if she wasn't F- tier.

(I love these options!)
While there should be levity at certain points, the game should be tense and frightening.

lol this forum is filled with some *interesting* characters. Figured I should acknowledge them before they could sneak attack with a snarky "dbd is trash now so there's absolutely nothing fun about it" or "it doesn't matter because until the devs fix (insert complaint unrelated to the question)."
Fair point. Sometimes, I love the meme games, but other times, I like the tense, scary games. I don't really get those now, sadly (I've been playing DBD for years so the fear wore off a long time ago).

True - the spark is harder to hold once experience takes hold.
However, the tension is best when you're in the midst of the cat and mouse game. Ghostface popping around the corner is always worth a jolt!
I think that, as seen above, the mario team is all good fun - and some meme builds are equally effective as well as hilarious. However, both sides need to hold a certain reverence for the other, which most 'meme' interactions belie.
Killers should be in constant tension that survivors are going to make a daring getaway.
Survivors should be on the edge of their seats as they struggle to complete objectives and survive chases long enough to secure their escape.
I find that most 'meme' interactions focus on Survivor who hold the killer in complete contempt, and killers that view survivors as mere playthings.
It's good to have fun in between, but when I say there should be tension - it isn't so much that everyone should be fearful or terrified, moreover - that there should be a solid root of mutually exclusive objectives and power that causes players to sit at the edge of their seat... which makes the jokes all the more hilarious once sprung.

Those types of games have been unicorns for me; but they are some of the best, I have to agree.

Horror. Always.

As a killer it's fun sometimes to goof around and help the survivor or thigs like that. But as a survivor i wanna feel scared, which is not what happens in this game. I made a whole post about that.

I'm creative and want to use this as an opportunity to go off on a tangent about something unrelated to the question. Stay tuned for my genius, enlightened take.
Romance DBD. The Killer and I stare into each other's eyes for 2 minutes straight. The fact that I'm on the hook has nothing to do with it.

They don't call him Ji-Swoon for nothin' . . .

I completely live for meme games you find like once a month.
Either it's a hilarious name, that will make it into my hall of fame of best names i've met
Either it's a 4-man Dwelf lobby that will do nothing entire game, but walk around the map together.
Either it's just running a stupid, never working meme build to pull out something unbelievable once.
Either it's a Jeryl, we all know they're the absolute gods.
On other side you'll meet the Chest Protectors, who are the absolute stars in the toxic sky of this community. They'll wait all day in the basement, just to find that one game that will make someone's day.
There's Sky/Space Billy players, who stopped caring about playing the game to tryhard and just started performing tricks to amuse their survivors. #SaveSkyBilly !!
Even Devs are feeding us with amusement
Even if that was supposed to be a joke, I can't wait for Hooked on You to be available.
Memes is what keeps this community still somewhat whole. Please keep it going. For some people it's cringe, some people are too tryharding to chill out and meme around, but in the end, we all have something that brings a smile to our faces <3

I laughed at a few of those names 😂😂😂 But yeah, I like playing normally, but I love the meme games, too. They inject fun back into the game for me. Yesterday, a Ghostface and I slowly raced to the gate together. Slow-mo chasing Ghostface was far funnier than I knew lol
We had pretty funny and wholesome conversation after the match. Wherever he is, I hope he's having a great day 👍
