    My favorites are Dwight and Trapper...I started with them and I just think they're neat. (Plus I'm pretty darn good with them.)

    I'll be honest I don't think I was the game's intended audience. I think the only horror movie I've ever seen was The Ring but I was multitasking during it. The game was just new and I bought this one along side Skyrim and Fallout 4 and I liked that you could play in 10-20 minute spurts and then do other things.

    Felix and Doctor. Felix cause well...😳

    And Doctor cause I love that he's always laughing and having a good time. In my mind he's not even trying to hurt anyone...he's just there to party. Screams are like laughter to him.

    But Clown is my sexy Killer. I can't say too much about that now. Doctor is suddenly looking at me very funny....

    I like The Doctor because of his laugh too, but mostly because of his power its easy to find the survivors if they are near by crouching somewhere hidden. Just shock their a** and i love the maddness!

    Well, perks and cosmetics are tricky for Survivor because they all vary so much.

    As for Killer, I love Pig. She's my favourite. So much utility and one of my fav horror franchises!

    My favorite killers are Hag & Trapper. I'm a sucker for tricksie killers.

    I also enjoy Bubba, Huntress & Deathslinger.

    I cringe when I get a Wraith daily but it's usually something easy like: "Hit 4 Survivors after YA RING UR BELL"... so whatever. I have a chill game ringing mah bell, hitting mah survivors... and usually just let them all go. Unless I lose track of hooks and one dies. Whatever. lol

    Really hope they rework Wraith some day. His entire role is basically done better by a perk like TInkerer. Any Survivor who knows how to play can spot you coming around with your ridiculous Predator Cloak that you have to stand there "DING DING DING DINGing" for 5 minutes before you're allowed to play the game and make a Survivor have to Survive.

    And I'm totally not saying this because I had a Wraith daily today in which someone was running OoO, which works on you when you're cloaked because OF COURSE IT DOES and could never get the drop on anyone. I really had such a FUN TIME playing around that 100% FAIR AND BALANCED perk.

    Bubba is my favorite for Killer cause he's cute. But Doc would be a close second. If you ever watch Doc's actions from the survivor perspective when you're not in chase it looks pretty funny. Plus his weapon is a stick.

    Feng for surv.

    Dweet and Daddy Myers.

    Best survivors (considered meta) are obviously Claudette and Ace, because of skin advantages and build-in Iron Will.

    Best killers are spirit and nurse.

    Got to be Ash/Felix and killer I'm in a pickle because I do like blight/deathslinger/pig/wraith and I haven't had a chance to get ghostface to try him out yet.

    Surv: Nea with colorful hair to be toxic

    Killer: Plague Aesthetically, Nurse game play wise because she was my first rank 1 killer

    My favourite Survivor is Kate. She's also easily the character I have the most playtime with, probably nearly half of all my hours since survivors are purely cosmetic. Although, to be fair, some cosmetics do give unfair advantages (looking at you, Blendette).

    My favourite killer is The Blight, followed by Deathslinger. I like Blight because something in my brain just clicked the moment I started playing him, and I've been getting pretty consistent wins ever since. Something about being able to rush around the map with such a high-energy, heat-of-the-moment playstyle fits with my head, I guess. And Deathslinger is just a super high skill killer, pretty strong, with lots of little things to try and master. I picked him up when he came out, accidentally started maining him when I stopped being able to have fun as Plague, and just kept playing.

    My favorite Survivors are David and Jane (would recommend Iron will on them though).

    For Killer I find it hard to pick favorites, propably Myers.

    My favorite killers are Doc, Freddy and Clown. I enjoy simple 115% movement killers with some anti-loop ability.

    I don’t play survivor but I guess Ash would be my favorite since I’m a Bruce Campbell fan? 🤷‍♂️

    Doc because he gives me a "this is fine." attitude in a losing situation with his chuckles and abilities. This has done wonders for queuing up for another. No other killers are as inspiring.

    Nea is my favorite survivor because she always reminded me of a mouse. Survivors are alot like helpless mice and I am just embracing my inner mouse.

    Imagine unironically liking this game and playing it for fun

    For surv I love playing as Zarina but I do also have Cheryl, Feng, and Nea to play once I get Zarina to level 50

    Killer is trapper, and legion. I love the feeling of a survivor hitting a trap after thinking they got away and I find the thought of an edgy teen with a knife running around kinda funny. I do wanna pick up Ghostface once I get the money though.

    Jake. Some of his cosmetics just makes him look really cozy. Plus, I like his messy hair.

    For Killer, it’s a tie between Spirit and Demogorgon, they’re just fun to play as.
