Have you forgotten Demogorgon?

For a long while now many of us have wanted some tweaks to the flowery death monster however its seems to have fallen on deaf ears as there's been no mention of any form of tweaks to this sadly very underwhelming killer.

The main thing he needs is an addon rework as this killer is sadly addon dependent but his addons are about as useful as a david with no mither and self care.

I do hope BHVR tweak this killer as he is currently design whise the most unique killer in the game and its a shame you never see him. So my question is, Devs have you forgotten demogorgon or do you have other pressing matters to attend to? If so will he ever be buffed or will he remain a rarity in this realm of The Entity?


Thank for reading.


TLDR: plz boof Demobegorgondorgon

    I've been trying him a bit recently but have only played against him twice in recent memory.

    I want rat liver as basekit, I just always use it.

    But I usually have a lot of fun playing demo.

    Its sad he's fun to play against and with but he really struggles at the higher ranks

    Ok I just played as him but got stuck near that damn rock lmao.. But he feels fun if you are good with him (which I'm not)

  • gibblywibblywoo
    gibblywibblywoo Member Posts: 3,772

    True, I didn't have a great time when playing him but had no slowdown perks unlocked so I didn't get much time to set up my portals every match.

  • DontNerf
    DontNerf Member Posts: 990

    Exactly, the fact that he's fun to play is imo extremely important as in DBD right now there isnt alot of those killers.

    I'd mainly like some changes to the portals as they are quite limiting. A way to get portals back would be nice and the ability to remove portals. The biggest change i'd like for portals though is for the ones you place to be exit portals and then give the Demo the ability to travel to them from anywhere. So they'd open a portal that closes behind them because having to go to a portal to initiate travel is a little tedious in my opinion.

    An add-on rework would be nice as I find barely any of them interesting. Also Rat Liver base kit please and thank you.

    True, I'd take a 100 god tier demogorgans over the current tidal wave of boosted spirits and freddos.

  • ReSpEcTtHe4PeRcEnT

    I'm not good with them but if I could master them I think Oni, Plague, Demogorgon and Spirit would be considered fun for me to play as. But I get that you say some killers are boring/unfun.

    Better Addons

    Quiet his f'ing footsteps, especially while "undetectable"

    fix his framerate on console

    that alone would help immensely

  • DontNerf
    DontNerf Member Posts: 990

    Yeah i agree i guess its down to opinion on what is fun, but hey! Thats what makes so many killers fun!

    I play a TON of demo to the point where i'd say i main him and I agree since his only good addons are brown and 1 yellow one. I would like them to make the rats liver base kit as they look into him but i would rather the brown addons and the 1 yellow addon that gets you a portal and decreases recovery time not increase in rarity.

    also who else thinks demo is underrated? Most players dont play him well and some dont even loop the right way to use shred. I can land nearly 1 shred almost every chase in a match but then i get another p3 demo and he misses like 3 shreds he shouldn't have done and im like tf you doing? hes a boss at vaults since you just have to wait to see the animation to shred or shred the vault when their item disappears but so many demo players are way too hasty and they miss hits from that.

    Demo is overall my least encountered killer now, I think I've played against maybe 3 demos in the last month and a half since I started playing the game again. Was nurse before the cross-play update because nobody plays her on console, but I see her more often than any other killer now with cross-play on due to how common she is on PC. There is a reason why Demo is least played, he is simply bottom tier right now alongside clown and trapper. On paper he should be good, as he seems to have all 3 things that a good killer needs to win, chase ending potential, map pressure, and stealth, but in practice only one of those 3 things actually works well. His map pressure potential is largely negated by how quickly his portals can be sealed, and his stealth potential is largely negated by his huge 16 meter footstep sound radius, which allows survivors to hear him even when he has undetectable after a teleport.

    The big two things Demodoggo needs is imo:

    1) Tone down his sounds. If I'm not within say 24m of the portals he's entering/exiting then I don't need to hear his warning because I'm nowhere nearby.

    Don't need him to announce to everyone "Hey I hit someone!" every. single. time.

    Oh and can't forget that his footsteps are absurdly loud. (iirc 16 meters?)

    2) Rat Liver is base, adjust the add on to compensate.

  • BubbaMain64
    BubbaMain64 Member Posts: 546

    He just needs some quality of life changes really. He isn't overwhelming at all in my opinion since I usually 4k with him constantly and only ever lose against good swf squads. This is all coming from a Demo main.

  • Onyx_Blue
    Onyx_Blue Member Posts: 1,060

    His add-ons do need looking into and adjusting. But to those saying Rat Liver should be base-kit: @Golden_spider @AChaoticKiller @MojoTheFabulous @OldHunterLight you have no idea what you're asking for. Rat Liver allows Demo to gain ground in chases he would never normally be able to make without good movement and knowing how to play the tile properly as well as manupulate his power too. If that were to be base-kit it would lower his skill-cap tremendously. Loops would feel oppressive, it would remove a lot of fun from interacting with him, players would have their hand held, essentially. I'm a Demo main whom never uses this add-on (for the reason above) and suffer no struggles or feelings of lackluster chase play towards Demo on my end. So, if Devs read these comments, DO NOT put Rat Liver as base-kit...

    Don’t let this thread die. I love The Demogorgon, wished they payed more attention to him like they did to Pyramid head. When Demogorgon was announced, I thought we would go to the upside down, kinda like old Freddy. It’s been almost a year since he’s been out and I do agree, he is by far the funnest killer to go against, great chase music and his presence is just everything. He is also the rarest killer to go against, he needs some love. You got my Vote up!!

    I pla as him sometime but he not one of my mains also he hard to use to me.

  • AChaoticKiller
    AChaoticKiller Member Posts: 3,104

    its a brown addon... I can literally use it every game out of 4 other addons that affect shred and i do. if your not using it there are certain small to medium loops you can barely get the shred hit on that you otherwise wouldn't hit. I really dont think it will tremendously lower his skill cap his skill cap itself is knowing when or when not to use/fake shred as well as how it can be used at loops and jungle gyms.

  • DontNerf
    DontNerf Member Posts: 990

    I hope they give him the love he needs i love demoboi and i want to play against him more

  • DontNerf
    DontNerf Member Posts: 990

    I agree he is far too loud when hits a survivor and when he travles to other portals as it negates the whole stealth aspect of him when he emurges from the portal, also his portals are far to easy to destory

  • Jill10230
    Jill10230 Member Posts: 475

    This killer was my favorite (with the Nurse), but until I met the red ranks...


    His portals are useless, they are quickly destroyed against a team, that pushes Gorgon to make new ones every 5 minutes... who wants to play with that ? The trap limit being the most annoying, the time the survivors take to destroy them is awful, and the fact that I have to open my mouth to see who is in my portals... it's ULTRA annoying !


    Its secondary attack is slow to charge, but quite useful against loops.


    In short, one more regret to my collection of regrets from the game!😀

  • DontNerf
    DontNerf Member Posts: 990

    I get your frustration buying a killer only to have them be underwhelming is extremely annoying i think adding killer instinct to his portals that ativates without the need to charge of the abyss would be amazing as i think that would give him alot more preasure, add that along with making his portals harder to destroy and an addon rework it would be amazing for him.


    I think its extremely important that a killer as iconic and as cool as demogorgon is given the attention he truly deserves.

  • Onyx_Blue
    Onyx_Blue Member Posts: 1,060

    Yes, so instead of making it base-kit, they could just up it's rarity.

    Exactly, so the fact increasing his movement while charging Of The Abyss means you're going to be given an easier time in tiles and loops for shredding and baiting/faking. Meaning his skillcap is lowered, the game would be giving you easy angles all the time, undeserved.

    He's in a great spot power wise right now. The only thing that needs changing is his add-ons. And maybe make Sticky Lining base-kit. Also, there are a lot of areas he cannot place a portal down in, those areas need fixing desperately.

  • Justalittlepeeck
    Justalittlepeeck Member Posts: 1,101

    I'm afraid if devs touch demo more than just making rat liver basekit, this going to be a disaster. I would love addon pass + rat liver basekit + QoL changes though

  • TheGhostofZgor
    TheGhostofZgor Member Posts: 334

    I love playing as Demogorgon! He's really the only killer thats just straight up a monster. Unless the add Pumpkinhead, Imma use him a lot. But you're not wrong that, as a survivor, I don't really see him much. However I have not once played a match against the Deathslinger, I've never seen him.

  • DontNerf
    DontNerf Member Posts: 990

    Deathslinger suffers from as similar problem, mainly he isnt viable at red ranks which in my opinion every killer should be
