Since Gens sha'll take 90 seconds now

Can we make them more interactive?

I would love to see those yellow glyph-skill checks? Or a slight slower version of them for new players.

Or something like the new wiggle skill checks. You could add those changes to the beta tab.

I don't mind that much doing gens for 90 seconds but it takes so long and it will take even longer with other slowdown perks. And getting a skill check every 15-20 seconds is the real Killer.. People already dodge gens bc it's boring and instead fool around clicking their flashlights at the killer just to get some interactions.

Gamers like interactions. Doing gens for 2 minutes isn't interactive at all.

    now that's a change i would love: no more skillchecks to counter the absolute boredom of doing a gen for 90 or more seconds. i wouldnt even care if the killer grapped or hit me in the mean t ime just so i could tab out from that silly gen simulation thing

    Since optimization is terrible on console and I get random freezes thanks to random triggers in the game like killer using their power, any time a status effect is activated like sloppy butcher, someone getting hooked/unhooked, and more I don't feel like listing right now I'd rather not have more skill checks to miss during those freezes that make a boring 90 second gen take even longer.

    Honestly with this event I use Built to Last and the shiney new tool box that's almost on every tree. With a speed addon and remove skill checks. After 2500 hours in DBD the last thing I want to do now is skill checks. They are not hard to hit but this other monitor has something more interesting half the time going on. ;)

    Or go play a game that has more interactive gameplay then press space at the right time. Hell at least rhythm heaven has good music

    Just went against 2 Plagues in a row and Jesus why are plagues players so boring both of them had Thanatophobia + Dying Light

    I wanted to DC 4 stacks of Thana is already 20% slower gen repair speed now stacked with Dying light it makes gens take even longer to fully repair...

    Thanks you BHVR for buffing thana for no particular reasons it was already an annoying and boring perk for both sides.

    Good thing I never run Thana on my Legion beceause I know how boring it can be.

    The yellow glyph is fun as something to do once in a while .. not every gen or even every game.

    If it makes you feel any better. Keyboards and controllers aren't much cleaner.

    I'm gonna have so much fun playing forever Legion. Thanatophobia + Dying Light + Pentimento + Gift of Pain.

    I agree though, there should be different types of skill checks to make generators more fun to do. If I were BHVR, instead of increasing gen time I would add a secondary objective but since they don't want to, I'm fine with more gen time. At least the game won't be unplayable against optimal teams anymore.
