Killers,Nerfed,Buffed,Reworked,New ???
I have been on several threads here and on other forums where the conversation seems to return to the perceived buffs,nerfs to killers or to ignoring the forgotten broken killers while releasing new killers to the roster.
What is happening and what does the future hold for the killer community?.

Well maybe the recent survivor buffs lead to more survivors being more coordinated. If that would be the case maybe BHVR can see how strong survivors can actually be on certain maps and make meaningful changes to killers

To me, just apathy.

The way they approach to killer is very different then survivors.
Killer: Release in the weakest form and wait later to buff it. See wesker and knight. Why? They afraid of community outrage from survivors
Killer Perk: Nerf and wait months later to see what data about.
Survivor: Buff it now, and fix later

Introduce killer bot in live game and remove killer players, one side only to manage/balance/listen, no more problem. Problem solved.
Many killers just require a little fix, trapper for example, just allow him to start with all the traps. It will make him viable and OP ?Of course not, still he will be one of the weakest killer but AT least something has been doing.
Mayers, Sadako, Freddy, Clown, TWINS, just to name few need a fix, not a rework it would be too much to ask ( i mean, they need a rework but everyone know this is not going to happen ) but a FIX, just a little bit of something to make them less pity and miserable
Take Plague for example. Is a fine killer, her power is kinda solid, a bit too much RNG based with pools but ok BUT she has a problem everyone, and i mean literaly everyone reported. The audio while corrupt purge is on. You have to remove your headset or become deaf. Is a game breaking request ? Is something so OP that would never happen ?Of course no, is QUALITY OF LIFE but still..honestly sometimes i refuse to charge corrupt purge just to avoid that damn loud sound !
Take Knight for example, is the only killer who has a build in buff for survivor. WHY? Why in the hell a survivor should receive a speed boost AND endurance status for a killer power ?
Take Twins..lol..i mean....lol twins. The only time they were good was due a bug on the PTB, and when people ask to keep that bug because was helping Twins, they "fixed" it. Why ?Who knows
Take Freddy..yeah he was good. WAS. Then he was reworked..ah what a great rework, now he just useless
Take Sadako, her power simply doesn't work, she has NOTHING other a silly teleport. But she has jump scare in the killer selction so she's fine i guess
And more and more and more and more so yes it's obvious BHVR don't care at all at killers player base. "OH my God look Mayers has a 70% kill rate he is fine" and no he is not, no one can say he is fine but amongst low level player or with some addon yes he is..okish.
And shall we talk about killer gameplay ? Kick gen, pallet stun, kick gen, DH, tunnel and camp, kick gen, run around the shack for 2 minutes, pallet stun followed by a vault. Shall we talk about maps ? DECIMATED BORGO lol what a joke, the offering was even killswitched because the map has way too many pallets and..yes now instead of 20 has 18. What a massive change. Badham ? Cowshed ? Azhrov ? Garden ? Eyre ? But maps are a strong ( if not the strongest ) aid for survivor why change them ?Why even bother to fix "The game" map with 22 pallets ( 22 god pallets btw ) and that's one of the easiest map for killer !
Just wait a couple months when they'll nerf Blight, pain res and CoB and give unbreakable basekit to survivors and gen location on HUD just because they need that information in order to stay in line with SWF

Tbf survivor perks usually launch in a weak state too. For reference see all 3 of Haddie’s perks

That’s 1 perk released on a solo original survivor so they basically had to make a strong option so people would buy her
Compare that to the countless weak forgotten options such as corrective action, self preservation, dark theory, parental guidance, low profile and power struggle just to name a few
