I think I'm switching sides

Bradcore

When I started this game, I mained Survivor. I wanted to be the victim for in a horror movie. And it was scary. For a time. And then it got too easy, and I started getting brave  Not to be a dick mind you, but to be a good teammate  I'd play killer once in a while, but I was lousy at it.

Overtime, I noticed more often the groups I was in being dipshits. Usually to the killer, but sometimes in pregame chat. For the record, if you are a complete douche before the game even starts, I will let you die. 

Anyhow, I generally try to be a good teammate, but I got sick of my teammates dicking so much, so I started playing killer more  And the abuse I got was ruthless. In game and post game . I understood what killers went through. So I went back to playing survivor and making a strong effort to thank the killer after each game because I understood the ######### they get.

Then I started getting much more killer dailies than survivor dailies. And I started playing killer more because it was a more frightening experience than playing as survivor. How ######### up is that? And I hit decent at it. Not great, but decent. I still try to play survivor on occasion, but since I've been playing killer more, I'm not as good as I was previously. I take a certain pleasure now in killing people who act like dipshits. Do I win all the time? No. But do I still have fun? Yes.

That's how it be, survivors are more powerful than killers.

Most of the time if I get a a survivor who has been being toxic and the game is basically already lost I'll make sure he dies.

Or just pick both sides and get them both to rank 1. Can’t go wrong there. Picking sides is honestly dumb and just a way of segregation

I play both sides to enjoy the specific aspects of playing each side. I'm a better killer, but switching it up is fun. Learning survivor tactics improves my killer skills. I'm still stuck in the "kinda potato" skill level as a survivor but having to work to get better makes it fun. Trying to learn stealth and evading techniques as a survivor lol its not going well. But I got the game to play all of it, not only experience half of what it has to offer. But that's just me lol

I play both sides, though I do play Killer more than survivor. I see the problems from both ends.

I like to think of a declaration of someone's main to mean they're biased to that side of the argument, and they're giving a heads up beforehand instead of that person implying they have a profound knowledge or expertise of that side (especially when there's multiple sides to every argument in an asymmetrical game or when backgrounds can't be verified). A declaration of someone's main for any reason other than that makes me giggle honestly.

For example: I play both killer and survivor to rank 1 regularly during the months I play, despite that, I call myself a killer main. It's not to say I'm ignorant or not sympathetic to survivor issues, but more of a heads up that any argument I make will likely be in the killer's favour due to my own personal biases (subconscious or not).

Anyway, to the OP, have fun with killer. For me at least, it certainly is the most frustrating and harder side at times. The most trouble I have with survivor is learning when to let go of my allies for the greater good, but other than that I find I'm actually more relaxed than anything else. The difference in pressure and requirements to perform from each side can be startling.

The only scary moments you have as a survivor is if you play against a good nurse or if a normal trash-tier looperable killer wants you so bad that you know that you will be facecamp after you ######### up the loop.

I've done the same thing recently Bradcore. Maybe I've just played survivor too long but Killer has revitalized my love for the game. Maybe it's just seeing the other side of the equation but Killer do take a lot of #########. Most matches are good, but then you get a game of 2 or 3 swf and ######### hits the fan. Last second flashlight survivor switches before the match starts. They follow you all game long. Then if by some miracle you hook everyone, you get ######### on in the end game chat. The game is asymmetric horror, its supposed to be balanced in favor for the killer. The killer should have no problem hooking at least two survivor each game unless they do something particularly bad in my opinion.

Doesn't matter how you play, if you get one kill or four, then you are a "camping #########" as they say. On the same token, if you get two or less kills, it's "easy peasy. LOL, you suck." Doesn't matter in the slightest how you played or they played, they will almost always trash talk the killer at the end.
