You can rate any way you want, but I just ask that you say which way you rate it.

    I, myself, am not personally content with how this game is. The concept is cool, the balance is the best it's ever been, but it's still a buggy mess built on a flimsy framework. Ontop of that, newer Killers are often forcing interactions in which the Survivor lives and dies ONLY on the Killers skill and not their own. These are the reasons why, as a game, I am not entirely content with the current state of DBD.

    As a product, I am even less content. This game, for all of the content that effects the game, costs $70 and hundreds of hours of playtime. If you don't want to waste your life to see the original Killers, then make that $140. If you want cosmetics or the good parts of the Rift? $150 or more. For a game as buggy as this one, without any competition in it's genre, with little to no effort put in in a timely manner to improve, this is not okay.

    Now, as far as fun is concerned? I love this game. It is an amazing game I've spent almost 750 hours on in 2 years.

    I'm not happy where the game is currently. They seem to not care about the player experience or game health. They release bug ridden chapters and will allow game breaking bugs like uncleansable totems stay in the game for months. Console and low end PCs have triggers that cause FPS drops that can ruin games and instead of optimization like they promised years ago they expect players to instead spend money upgrading to new systems to play a 4 year old game. They not only will not add colorblind accessibility but they are changing current features without even taking that vocal community into consideration. Bloodwebs and rift are both very grindy and cause burnout. Players complain about the grind but nothing is done to ease it, instead they add additional useless items to bloodweb and lessen rift fragments earned from challenges.

    The state of the game makes me wish there was another successful game that could give them real competition. Not only would actual competition push them to be better but it would give players another game to turn to. I stay playing this game only because it is the only one of it's kind. I went from playing daily to only couple times a week if at all because bugs, lack of optimization, and grind just make it OK in small doses. I don't know how many hours I've put in but it's enough to be devotion 10.

    I can't really decide. I think the game has a lot of issues that still need adjustments but I still enjoy the game on a decently regular basis.

    I am mostly happy with how the game functions, I just think maybe some overall balancing and adding different mechanics would be cool. As it is the game is just a bunch of loading bars with skill checks and I think that could be improved upon for things like chests and totems, but I do think that its okay how thats how it works for gens.
