A random question for all the killer mains out there! Have you ever felt extra guilty for killing a survivor, and why?

    Occasionally. Usually though I feel worse when I’m a survivor and I drop a pallet on Piggu’s head. Her lil squeak

    If matchmaking decides to put me with a person who's played like 3 matches, yeah definitely.

    No, although I do show respect to those who clearly outplayed me and were misfortunately downed out of luck. In-game, I'll look down then back up at the hooked survivor, like a nod of appreciation, and will then compliment them afterwards.

    But as for feeling bad, I just feel it's a game, and it's about my playing the best I can.

    Sometimes I do. Never against people that obviously have enough experience, but when I get matched with newer players. It´s so unfair sometimes.

    When you're not tunneling, but you keep finding the same survivor, possibly still injured after an unhooking...yeah I feel a little sorry for them. But at the end of the day, I'm a killer and that's what I do. Kill kill killedy kill.

    Yeah, when I keep running into the same dude. And when I can tell they're new.

    No. Now if there was a The Last Of Us chapter, it would be a different story.

    Unrelated: stunning Myers with a pallet is hilarious. The sound he makes gets me every time.

    I mean if the survivor is new to the game having really bad game like I team the whole team there still like 5 or 4 gen left I get hatch.

    Actually this just happened to me. I didn't feel SUPER bad, but I did feel a little guilty. a survivor got off hook and triggered my phantasm trap. I do as any good hag does and immediately teleport and M1. I didn't even realize they were the survivor just on the hook. (I wasn't paying attention, I was searching for someone else.) that is until I picked them up and death hooked them. Like I said, it didn't super phase me or anything, but I don't like tunneling/camping (Though camping the whole map at once is kind of hags power.) when I can avoid it. and I was definitely in a good enough position that it wasn't called for.

    But killing a cocky survivor is ALWAYS fun. Survivors Tbagging me at a pallet thirsty for a flashlight stun get the best surprise when it doesn't work.

    Sometimes I let the last survivor escape via hatch if their team was complete #########. I made friends that way.

    I don't normally feel bad about killing survivors, even with Red Moris. Killing survivors is what I'm supposed to be doing as a killer, it's the whole point. The exception is if I kill someone and it turns out they were bugged, then I feel a little sorry for them. Like if I see someone stuck in the hillside for instance, if I realize they're stuck I'll knock them down, pick them up and drop them somewhere nearby so they at least have a chance to recover. (It's only happened once so far fortunately.) I'll kill people who are afk though, it's not the game's fault if you go afk.

    And survivors never get sympathy from me by calling me names or saying I "tunneled" or "camped" or whatever. If anything knowing that I beat someone who's a jerk just makes it more satisfying.
