Why doesn't everyone play Claudette?

Don't get me wrong. I play Claudette but im not a toxic flashlight #########.

I mean, she's tiny, black, short, has dark hair and clothing that makes her almost invisible.
Why play shirtless David and get spotted miles away when you can be invisible with Claudette?

    Luckily not everyone is competitive and plays for a win, DBD would be unplayable otherwise

    Because then all bubba would run in empathy face which would causes a racist uproar due to every bubba player in constant blackface at least that's what one survivor on here said but not every killer wants a squadette every game and then your gonna cause more killers to quit then play and then complain you can't get games because your either doged or camped so you can't go and hide

    If you need company I'll gladly come. For research ofc

    I heard they like Italians for historical reasons so I might come handy to convince them giving some "interviews"

    I'll be glad to do this sacrifice for science sake

    Some of her hairs (like the default one +p3) can be seen across the map ^^
    In the past where dbd wasnt that variety claudette was the most played survivor. She was my main too :) And is still my favo. But sometimes I wanna play Meme Ace, or laurie, or nea, or meg, or dwight, or quentin ^^
    btw sneaky gameplay isn't very strong. playing sneaky in a chase so that the killer loses you THATS strong
    and for those "snukes" (sneaky jukes) you dont need claudette. Just because youre playing claudette means not youre invisible. =)

    I mained Claudette then Dwight for a bit but now I'm back to Claudette. I do not play her for stealth and according to killer mains, I am toxic even survivor mains say that about me it hurts. But I try not to be toxic. I play her because she's got cool cosmetics. Not everyone likes to stealth you know? Most people like to be spotted and chased.

    To bad that there are a lot of people taking the forum as serious as a national emergency.

    I love it too though.

    I used to main Dwight because when I first got the game I didn't care much for playing Survivor - just pick the first guy and go.
    Plus he was 'that guy' like I was, and we both need glasses too lmao.
    Now I have Dwight at P1 Level 50 and my Adam at Level 50.
    I learned after 400-ish hours that there's no point in prestiging anybody. Learned the hard way, mind you, when I lost my awesome Doctor build and have yet to get even Distressing Tier 1 even though he's at Level 48-ish now.
    I prefer Adam because he's so quiet, even when injured, and purchased his dark green coat cosmetic so I blend in a lot better. I can't stand playing as Claudette because she sounds like a dog on death's door whenever she's injured and it's so god damn annoying.
    I also so happen to have that misfortune where I have the Killer right on my ass like a heat-seeking missile as soon as the game starts in half the matches I'm in, and if he doesn't then he comes after me after chasing another Survivor for a while. In either case, I would be injured most of the match, having to listen to that annoying whimper all god damned game.

    TL;DR, Claudette sounds like a dying animal when she's injured and it's loud and annoying which is why I don't play as her.

    Because not everyone is super competitive. I used to go for the best camo I could get in the early days of the game but once I stopped caring about Rank and all that, I stopped caring about camo. Running around with Ace in bright pink & purple clothes is great.

    ChesterTheMolester Member Posts: 2,771

    Some of us are not so shallow to care only about gameplay effectiveness.

    Some of us are mature enough to appreciate deeper and more meaningful characteristics of certain survivors.

    Also, Kate has great tits.

    Isn't "Legion" a gang of late teens/early 20s hoodlums? Yeah he looks scrawny too. David would KO him.

    Not that DBD makes sense. Trapper is about 8ft tall and looks like he can bench 1000lbs yet he fails to push a 5ft something Laurie out of the way when shes standing in front of the hook.

    They put Meg in a mini skirt and even that won't help.

    And ninja masks. At least ones that don't come with pastel hair.

    Most survivors can wear pretty heavy camouflage in terms of colors.

    Thinking about it, Claudette doesn't seem to own a pair of shorts. I don't think I have seen her legs.

    I used to play her because I liked being sneaky, that was until I realized you can pretty much do it with every survivor. I like playing Quentin, Tapp, Adam, Laurie, David and a few other characters too. When I do play Claudette though I always wear the shirt that Tru3Talent has for her.

    Wasn't meant to be how u think lol, was referring to nea and claudette, both are ugly af. Really never understood the hype of Nea tbh. And claudette, well it's easy mode to play her so it's obviously "hyped"

    I prefere to play pizza dwight or golden ace etc, just in general nice looking skins. Idc if I'm easier to spot, tbh that's even better so I'm not dealing with M1 simulator at gens

    I know you didn't, thats why i called it a poor choice of words.

    Also her ability to hide is quite overrated, an experienced Killer will usually see her.
