Is Blight ever going to be adjusted for console?
Title. Blight is literally F tier on console since he can't counter survivors spinning him at all and he needs console specific adjustments to make him playable

When he first came out, I would characterize Blight as unplayable on my Xbox1 most definitely.
Shortly before leaving DBD one of the devs, McLean I think it was, dove into Blight on console, making very noticable improvements in control and movement.
To play Blight to full potential yes a keyboard & mouse and steady frames are needed, but in his current form Blight is not unplayable on console.
You will need a TON of practice with him (go kill a couple hundred bots for starters) and jack that controller sensitivity up to at least 180 imo, and in time you'll find success. And try not to become add-on dependent either.

Are there controllers with modified DPI? Like having a switch that changes stick input from giving a value between 0 and 1 based on how much you have it tilted, to a value of 0 to 2.
Just curious. I don't play on console at all.

Nope. Some of the most challenging aspects of playing killer with a controller are the dead zones on the sticks before actually being able to move, flicks are unheard of, and strafing is a nightmare.
Awhile back they doubled the sensitivity and gave it a slider, which comes in handy as is seems each killer requires their own sensitivity level. Nevertheless this change did help.

This strange arithmetic doesn't seem to mean much to us consolers.

except he kinda is considering you can only hit survivors running in a straight line. Even as survivor I can easily demolish any console blight because blight on console literally CANT counter being spun making his power useless except for mobility

Sadly thats my point. You shouldn't need to max out sensitivity and everything just to have a fighting chance as blight. If McLean did that then I send many thanks to him but Blight just needs a bit more help when it comes to controller so he can at least counter being spun

Really bold statement, I don't really see many people claiming to be able to "demolish" a specific console killer as a single survivor. You must truly be a god at the game. I've seen a few good Blight console players, they're definitely not as oppressive as a cracked PC Blight but they're pretty good, they better watch out for you.

Not to regurgitate Lilith here but, everything on PC Blight can be done by a console Blight. If his flicks looks near normal other than the linear horizontal movement on controller, compared to his 6k dpi mouse It shouldn't be that much of an issue.

The last I checked, sensitivity didn’t affect his power at all. And the last I checked, console Blight couldn’t even do a 90 degree flick.
BHVR did try to make console Blight better to play, but they never actually got it to work well. They really needed to add button combinations that did quick 45 degree turns and quick 90 degree turns (that are still affected by the large angle turn nerf), but we never got those.
