Old tinkerer

openings at the bottom of the double wood forts on swamp(now I’m trapped down there with the only option of running up to get out.
openings at the back of the store on autohaven(which sometimes spawn but sometimes don’t now)
poor trapper before the buff
being able to recover from exhaustion while running
mori used to not require a hook
Everyone got the instant option to ds without having to wiggle if you weren’t the obsession

I don't think either of them were ever good, or considered to be good.
On his release, Leatherface was considered to be a mid tier killer I think. And Freddy was decent on release. Like pretty solid.

When all of the Killers' animations were hideously long (though we have been spoiled by having them shortened). Breaking pallets, regressing generators, picking up, hooking.
Whenever I watch old videos I always say to myself "Jeez, do it FASTER". Its probably a time I will never want to have back.

I was around when the breaking animations took forever. I recall the infinites as well. I wanna cry now.
Hey, remember to earn pips before you had to kill at least two survivors? There was no such thing as a 'Emblem System' that these fancy kids have nowadays.

If you had multiple survivors in your view when stalking your stalk would drain both at a certain rate, making it alot faster. Around the time the Clown came out (I think) turns out it was a bug and they patched t
