Is it time to add killers from video games yet?
A lot of people are focused on movie licensed killers, and yeah they’re great ‘n all, but what about video games?
We have decades of some of the most memorable villains, and it’s honestly disheartening they aren’t represented here. For example:
Outlast~
Chris Walker
Richard Traeger
Resident Evil Series~
Mr.X
Nemesis
Killing Floor~
Fleshpound
Scrake
Until Dawn~
Wendigo
Silent Hill~
Pyramid Head
Home Sweet Home~
Box cutter Ghost
Ski Free~
Yeti
C’mon BHVR :/

Laura from Evil Within. Nothing else would ever matter to me ever again.
(It'll never happen, though. She's not bipedal.)

We got Bill from Left 4 Dead
And Mathieu said that they could literally make anything
C'mon BHVR, give us some videogame killers

They could make their own version of the Wendigo because it's not licensed and just a myth
1 -
And it be orginal
2 -
It would be a dream to play as Leon Kennedy, and if they added RCPD as a map lordt....

It'd be unbalanced and have too many Balanced Landing fun zones.
Edit: Oh wait, most maps are unbalanced.

You in particular have been raiding the forums about original content
Hey everyone this guy only want's licensed he likes in the gam

But you don't see me saying nah this is a bad idea dev's should stick to movie franchise

Personally there's nothing scary about Nemesis doesn't mean it's a bad idea

Mm..The last thing that ever scared the mess outta me was that thing from PT. Really sucks that it didn’t go through tbh.
1 -
We need The Thing.

I know man that would have been a scary ass game. Resident evil 7 comes close to that sense of dread being chase by the Bakers was a terrifying but I feel kojima game would have topped it if he continued with it

Silent Hill is scarier than resident evil by along shot
2 -
Killing Floor crossover of both one of the agents and one of the major zeds would be pretty badass. I'd forgive them for the last dozen mistakes if that happened.
Now that I think of it, a balanced version of Dr Hans Volter as a killer would incredible. He's easily my favorite KF2 boss aesthetically.

Nemesis would be my favorite pick tbh. Not sure what powers you'd give him exactly. He could have a Rocket Launcher as his melee weapon, and could shoot rockets. Though it might overlap a little with The Huntress.
He also has his tentacles that he could use as another longer ranged attack. Sure if I had longer I could think of more exciting abilities but those are the ones that immediately come to mind. Besides him having a run.

Would love to see some of those, especially Pyramid Head and Slenderman.

Does anybody else want clementine from the walking dead added?

Two things that make me really sad: 1. Silent Hills got canned, and 2. I didn't have a PS4 before PT was yanked, so I'll never even get to play that. :(
0 -
If I'm not mistaken wasn't PT a beta for Silent Hill?
0 -
Yeah it was something else. I couldn’t finish it on my own, so I watched a twitch stream :p

It’d definitely be interesting to see the art style in DBD.

PT was a "playable trailer" for Silent Hills. Then Silent Hills got canned and PT was taken down.

It's really a shame but konami had a lot of control of he's IPs I'm so glad he left them .now presented the greatest metal gear game ever what could have been

Name shaming? That can get you banned bud
I've been saying that I want original content because we've had licensed chapters too many times in a row, not because I don't like them
1 -
i was thinking about this right now...wow. What about "Scissorman" ? from Clock Tower 1. They can add Scissorman as the killer and Jennifer Simpson as the survivor. Would be epic. Imagine playing and starting to hear those "cha ching, cha ching" sounds from the distance...
0 -
I'm making fun at the situation, I'm not trying to name shame you and I apologize if you felt outed, but its totally cool that you want these character's but you shouldn't just dump on other people's ambitions either
0 -
I have never done that
I said that I personally don't want Pennywise in the game but I don't really care, if it's a fun killer than ok
My point is that a whole year of licensed chapters is annoying
We can still get licensed chapters, just 4 times in a row is a bit too much for me
As I said before, they should aim for two licensed chapters and two original per year, it will mitigate if not remove completely the frustration that me and others feel when getting so many licenses in a row

If yall want silent hill then sign my petition in my discussions!

The Tank from Left 4 Dead.
We already got Bill, and he's now allowed on consoles, so they wouldn't miss out.

The Wendigo isn't tied to Until Dawn. It is a creature that has existed for centuries. The video game just used them as their main antagonist.

I mean what's the difference in if they did two and two or all licensed?
Licensed content brings in more people, there's people who's expecting them to do more horror icon's so they can start playing this game
By them getting these IP's it spells out how successful there are becoming, and to me the people who say add more originals seems like you only want them to slow down
There's 11 original characters already and only 6 Licensed should'nt they at least do 4 more licensed character's before continuing with more original content
At this point original content will be only service to the small but core players of the game, Please I don't want to hear the excuse of it doesn't show the creative side of the developers because obviously they got certain area's of maps from the movie's but they still have to build around those landmarks and make them believable Like Gideon's Meat Plant not every area is a section directly from the movie but you think it is.
It just seems like you don't want some character's in the game because other people really want them. Which I know will never be admitted

Ok, I understand you aren't open to different opinions, so I will never be able to make you understand my points
Please ignore me whenever you see me and don't bother me further

YES PLEASE BHVR

I'm just gonna let this say my opinion for me:
I made concepts for 4 videogame characters:

We already have Bill, so as far as I'm concerned, video game Killers/chapters are fair game

Who even own her rights?

Skybound Games

Glad you went for Chris Walker and Outlast 1. Best part about the franchise imo. Pyramid Head and the RE tyrants would be great too.
0 -
Resident Evil and Silent Hill content would be a dream come true. I'd say Nemesis and Jill or Mr. x and Leon/Claire if raccoon city was the map and if they wanted the mansion, maybe the tyrant and Chris or Jill?
I don't care which silent Hill they took from, as long as they had the map transition into the other version with sirens indicating when it's happening.

Jill "sandwich" Valentine >>>>>>> Chris "boulder punching" Redfield
0 -
Agreed

I don't know what to add as a Killer...
The Deathclaw from the Fallout Franchise? That's be cool...
0 -
Guys. We already have the Trapper from Dead By Daylight in this game. What more could you possibly need?
I mean that game is so popular it already has movie licenses. Pretty sure having one of their Killers is a big deal.

Nemesis is my dream character dude.
