Feedback - Chaos Shuffle Modifier (Q1-2025)

Player Context: Veteran player burned out on playing Dead by Daylight because 75% of the maps have melted together in my head over the years because of how "same-y" they have become after years of play. I play until I complete the Rift, and then I play until I complete the event tomb. I have hit Tier 200 every time since it was first introduced. I spend more time thinking about the game/watching content creators talk about the game than actually playing the game itself these days.

This rendition of Chaos Shuffle was just not for me. I have decided to wait until the next layer unlocks before I play Dead by Daylight again. I had players disconnect from almost half my matches tonight. I am playing casually in an Event queue. I genuinely do not know what Survivors want me to do. In the past, I used to be able to finish games by playing a certain kind of way as the killer. Now if I want to play the game at all, survivors just give up. I am unsure if I am going to buy the Rift Pass for the next tomb right away, or not. Part of me wants to continue supporting the game. Another part of me wants to just wait and see if the game's health will improve and come back from my break in the final 2 weeks before the Rift closes so I can force myself to get all the rewards.

All the suicidal players are causing a fundamental shift in my perspective from "DBD is my favorite thing on the planet" to "DBD is a small hobby I touch once every few weeks to get the rewards and that's about it."

    "All the suicidal players are causing a fundamental shift in my perspective from "DBD is my favorite thing on the planet" to "DBD is a small hobby I touch once every few weeks to get the rewards and that's about it.""

    I think this is the way to go to be honest. When I started playing back in 2021 I played this game every day for many hours a day. For the last year or so I've had to cut back on how much I play due to life commitments and it's the best thing ever. I play a few hours every couple of days ( I sometimes take a week or two off too) and I still enjoy the game and don't have the burnout/hatred most seem to have around here. If I still played at the levels I used to I would probably would hate DBD too.
