    I laughed way too much when I seen the killer for the first time. He isn't creepy or scary at all. I won't be buying the chapter, but I do kinda like the survivor.

    One really doesn't have anything to do with the other. This is about Kpop, may as well have said "it's funny how the fnaf people asked for Springtrap and in the end..."

    I don't think this community really cares on what's "scary" nobody really bases new killers on how scary they'll be, this community is mostly focused on how fun the killer is gameplay wise. I like the new killer because of how fun he looks to play. Character design wise he's not scary, but it's unique. There's obviously nothing wrong with DBD also being scary and going back to it's roots, but right now this i like this approach the devs did

    Him, absolutely not. You, it is quite possible.

    The author did not mention any alleged sexuality, he is talking about horror. I agree on this point.

    But you, you do it to complain that you can't say anything without being called homophobic? Discrediting the reality of homophobia, classic... Yes, question yourself.

    I personally LOVE the new Killer's aesthetic and visuals. I hope we see more Killers who aren't visually hideous/horrific.

    The new killer definitely feels more โ€œvideo gameโ€ than โ€œhorrorโ€ for sure. Is that bad? Iโ€™m not sure, itโ€™s not like DBD ever had any horror beyond jump scares anyways. Most of the characters have ridiculous outfits already.

    Y'know...

    The new killer is literally everything people hate about deathslinger AND did all the stuff people only claim deathslinger totally did/must have done. Y'know, the reasoning people use to harass those that play and like deathslinger? be it for gameplay, lore or both?

    But watch this new guy getting loved because... i dunno why. all while you still can't admit that you like deathslinger without getting harassed

    "He doesn't fit in DBD"

    Neither does Legion, Demogorgon, Deathslinger, etc.

    Where are the complaints for that?

    When I first saw the new killer I thought they added one of those sparkly vampires. Then I looked into it and found out he's not a vampire, he's just a douche.

    Why do you say from horror to K-pop? Anything can be horror.

    We don't say "From Horror to westerns" with Deathslinger for example.

    Yeah and you're a bit of an asshoIe for just wanting to insult for no reason at all, when did I say he's gay to begin with? Literally blowing it out of proportion dude, go believe in your truth when all you want is a lie. I never even said I hated the killer, just looks out of place is all.

    I mean they slapped a bit of blood on his face/chest then called it a day, it looks like. Design wise I mean

    Seems kinda lazy.

    The voice acting stuff is kinda neat, even if a little over-the-top (All the grunts from things like falling, no other killer does that I don't think)

    So if your average Joe or Megan turns out to be a serial killer I should be fking terrified by them?????????

    All that hype...for this? I am so disappointed. If I buy this chapter, which probably isn't going to happen, I will just get his adept and never touch him again.

    People think that nothing but dark tones exist in horror. They're so boring and uncreative that they only see killers as someone who's ugly or disfigured or masked.

    He is not licensed or exists anywhere outside of DbD. He is an original creation.

    No. They literally saw their game dying due to their horrible PR, refusal to listening to player feedback and lack of communication. So they decided to poach off the K-POP community that are die hard fans and will immediately forget about all their wrong doings. Obviously it worked because notice how no ones talking about how bad the UI still is, how terrible the lag is or how awful the survivor queue times are.

    Except it is like every other killer?

    Trickster = Deathslinger & Plague 2.0

    Twins = M1 Killer & Portal-less Demogorgon

    Blight = Billy & Spirit 2.0

    Oni = Billy & Leatherface

    Ghostface = Myers & Pig

    Clown = Huntress & Freddy(Snares)

    Deathslinger = Weaker Huntress with a smaller terror radius

    That's how it's felt the last while. My brother is gay and he's been raging about the last while on the forums because its been turned into a circus.

  • NomiNomad

    I wasn't talking about his power. I never even mentioned his power.

    I'm talking about how everyone is throwing a hissy fit over the design of the killer because he doesn't fit in, which again, I do not like that much, But Mr. Puddles, Robbie the Rabbit, Bunny Feng, the Bull Onesie for Deathslinger, all the Christmas skins, especially the ones that Dwight wears, the Legion's neon and Day of the Dead skins, the Krampus skin, the Minotaur do.

    The whining about what he looks like is ridiculous.

    Mate I'd be more scared of them than this killer ๐Ÿ˜„

    He kills people. That's how he fits. The scariest kinds of killers are the ones that look like anyone else. That's why american psycho and silence of the lambs are such great horror movies.

    You built up the hype and expected something and now are disappointed you didn't get what you wanted. Why is this anyone's fault but your own? I had no expectations, I didn't get hyped, and I like this new chapter. Maybe, just maybe, riding the hypetrain is never a good idea because you'll always be let down. Nothing will ever be as good, or as acceptable, as what you hype yourself up for.

  • GeneralV

    I never said it was anyone's fault. I am just giving my feedback regarding a chapter which I didn't like.

    Legion is clearly inspired from "You're Next" and "The Strangers". While Deathslinger feel's more like a killer in one of those run of the mill horror movies from a full moon or lesser production company, but I think it's obvious he was modeled after 'The Judge' from "The Frighteners"...right down to the decayed jaw. Demogorgon does NOT fit in DBD, and was complained about when he was released because of the slippery slope it would cause, which has brought us to today.

    A decent argument could at least be made for Demogorgon as it was an actual 'monster', which is unique for DBD and that Strangers Things current popularity would help bolster the game's playerbase. I, along with several others, disagreed about his inclusion due to the appeal of a younger audience. Clearly that concern was warranted as there is a lot of people on these forums who know very little about the genre.

    This killer, 'The Trickster', is ridiculous. Having a 120lb human fireman's carry a David or Bill just makes the game silly. What's so tricky about him anyways? I read his incredibly lengthy backstory(movie treatment) and not only is there nothing clever there, it's kind of embarrassing. Now I know the horror genre sets a pretty low bar when it comes to premise but this is pretty far down the chain in Jack Frost and Gingerdead man territory.

    If this is the best killer bE can come up with maybe it's time to stop.

    i would say the Pig is the one standing out the most in this pic.

    New killer fits in nicely

    AsherFrost Member Posts: 2,340

    So we're just going to ignore the pig in the room? It's ok, she is short enough you can overlook her easily.

  • Mozzie
    Mozzie Member Posts: 618

    Just using the examples I've been given. While it's also ridiculous to think of Amanda carrying Jeff she could for sure beat the hell out of jiwoon.

  • AsherFrost
    AsherFrost Member Posts: 2,340

    He's got a baseball bat and a bunch of throwing knives. She's got her Assassin's Creed cosplay blade and David Cameron's college girlfriend on her head. I just don't see her winning.

    Hoffman would of been a better character to wear the pig mask, no question. Amanda overpowers Eric Matthews in Saw III, this twink wouldn't stand a chance. Ironically Amanda carrying Allison Kerry's body is what gets the FBI suspecting another killer involved.

  • AsherFrost
    AsherFrost Member Posts: 2,340

    She's nipple high with a blade attached to her wrist. The "twink" as you say has about a foot of range before the bat even enters the equation.

    Why are people on here so arrogantly certain of matters when they don't even know the characters they speak about? I'll just leave this here for you. It's not a baseball bat, it's a lead pipe.



    And I'll repeat again, I would have rather they used Hoffman over Amanda just so it would be a bit more realistic when it comes to the physicality of overpowering the survivors. But it's bE, we gotta hit those diversity numbers ya know?

  • AsherFrost
    AsherFrost Member Posts: 2,340

    I know the characters, getting over on a single dude once is luck.

    Seriously, watch professional mma. Tell me when you see a fighter with over 1 foot reach disadvantage who wins a fight. You'll have to email me, as this game will be long dead by the time it happens. There's a reason weight classes exist in combat sports.

    Why are you so damn serious about this? There are a lot of inconsistencies in this game if we look at it from your point of view. Susie and Pig wouldn't be able to carry Bill, Ash, or David by one hand. Killers can just jump over obstacles instead of running around in circles. Like I can go on forever.

    I respect your opinion and understand the message you're trying to convey but don't make it sound like DBD is a serious "down to earth" game.

    I think people are mad cuz he's good looking.

    If he was ugly AF people wouldn't complain. Insecurity at it's best. (Imagine Doctor's face on this guy)

    The important part is that he is mentally unstable and is a ruthless killer despite of his good looks and talent.


    Why do people assume ugly = scary?

  • Mozzie
    Mozzie Member Posts: 618

    I'm not, this guy keeps harking on it thinking he's making a solid argument and I'm just humoring him lol. Obviously the game is fantasy but if you're going to throw Justin Beiber'eske characters at us and say 'wow look at how scary this next killer is' you have to take the piss out of it. I don't play anymore, just mocking it for the shell of it's former self.
