Has anyone seen an increase of complaints in post-game chat from survivor players recently?

It feels like every game I play as killer I have someone complaining about something - earlier I went against a Rank 2 Survivor with 5.4k hours who complained that I kept camping hook, when the reason I was staying around the hook was because I had a fairly good endgame gen setup there and one of the gens right next to hook was almost complete, and not to mention one or two kept running around the hook.

I had somebody yesterday accuse me of "tunnelling" and complain about it when I was literally playing Wraith with zero perks or zero add-ons just as a meme and a bit of a challenge.

Had another person the other day who got one-hooked at the end of the game saying I was using an insanely meta sweat build on Spirit (BBQ, Devour, Undying, Stridor) when Devour + Undying literally had no use at all, I only managed to down an injured survivor with it before it got cleansed after the third totem. I literally could've gone all out with Ruin, Undying, Pop and Stridor and it would've probably been sweatier. I was using her green speed and duration add-ons too, not even the strongest of her add-ons.


Like, I know this is going to sound like a "lol he's a killer main" type of post - I have 2.7k+ hours and play both sides pretty equally, even when I play survivor I try and understand why I killer may be tunnelling (maybe survivor was toxic, was being annoying or just getting potential DS out of the way early on), why they may be camping (endgame) or why they may be slugging (map pressure) but I feel when I play killer I just constantly receive complaints no matter how fair I try playing. Maybe it'd be a good idea if I just disabled post-game chat so I don't have to read it /shrug

    I'm a console player, so my experiences may slightly differ to yours, however recently survivors have been very nice to me after the match, saying ggs and calling me a good killer regardless of the result.

    Always drop a GG WP in the chat. Most of the time I'm able to compliment survivors on something they did, and it makes them feel better about their loss. If they're salty, just drop a lol ok and jet to the next game.

    I can get why they're mad about that spirit build. It feels pretty terrible to play in the 1v1, and cleans up survivors pretty well. It's not a reason for the survivors to get super salty about it though.
