Survivor is much more fun than killer

I have been maining killer for about 2 years playing off and on, but just recently I decided to level to rank 1 survivor and I am enjoying it much more than killer. I can actually play more than 3 matches without feeling like I have to sweat, It is a lot more fun and enjoyable than dealing with what killers have to deal with.

    I honestly don't blame you for feeling that way. Killers will often get a lot of #########, to the point most Killer mains on PS4 set our messages to friends-only.


    I play both Killer and Survivor even though I'm a Killer main and I have fun with both, but I just have more fun playing as Killer. Even though it feels much more stressful most of the time because of the constant taunting, I still have a lot of fun playing the bad guy for once.

    Ironically I'm the opposite.

    For a year and a half I was mainly a survivor main (I still played killer). Gradually since Doctor's rework I slowly shifted to being a killer main.

    Currently I'm really struggling to find the motivation to play survivor in order to complete my survivor rift challenges.

    I believe the reason you are now enjoying survivor more is due to you playing killer for a such a long time, playing survivor is a different experience.

    I find killer way more enjoyable as it's much more of a challenge and I don't have to rely on randoms pulling me down.

    That said, I like to play survivor to chill and wind down. It also lets me feel like the power role.

    Survivor is fun when you got friends. Least for me anyways. When Crossplay came out, I immediately started playing as Survivor with my Wife and her friends. It does get stale being a Killer, but that's because you only have 1 objective, which is to kill everyone. As a Survivor? You can do whatever tf you want. Wanna run a build to plunder all the chests on the map? Got 3 perks for that. Want to be a Detective and map out all objects on the map? Got items and perks for that too. Wanna play as the go-to healer? Got a whole set of perks for that.

    Same for me... playing survivor has allowed me to laugh in game (first time in awhile that was genuine)
