What about The Terminator?

That would be an interesting unexpected license to put in the game.


I'm not talking guns, I'm taking about the endoskeleton version, the red eyes no skin and his attacks would be mostly punches.


I have no ideas ideas for perks or anything I'm not a game dev and Terminator may not fit well. His mori could be him punching through your chest and lifting you off the ground .


Oh and If you don't think that the terminator would fir into a horror game, watch the first movie again. It's pretty much a slasher movie with a cyborg.

    If any Terminator were to be added, I'd absolutely prefer getting the T1000 over the T800. I won't deny that the original Terminator has slasher/horror inspirations, but especially in the context of all Terminator media, the T800 doesn't really scream scary anymore. The T1000, even though it comes from the more action oriented sequel, ironically IMO has more potential to terrify.


    As a sidenote, the T1000 would also be a pretty perfect way to introduce the "Killer disguised as a Survivor" idea into an actual design. I personally believe its not an irredeemable idea even up against SWF.

    To me Terminator is too much of an action movie and not enough horror to fit with DbD. A lot of sci-fi kinda rides that line though, like Aliens fits the horror but gets a bit too actiony.

    That being said, I wouldn't hate it if they added him but probably wouldn't play him more than getting achievements and never touching them again just like I did with the Nightmare on Elm St, Stranger Things, and Chains of Hate chapters.

    Yeah it may not fit at all. I'm just trying to think of outside of box killers that people would not expect, thanks for chiming in

    I don't think he fits the theme of dbd.
