I left This Game and Came Back To Write This
Hi, my names Nathan and I'm veteran of this game. I have over 8k hours played and have earned more blood points than the amount of atoms in my body. I've seen this game struggle, prosupure, and nearly die. I played on PC and moved to the xbox upon the console release back in 2017. That was a time for consoles where you would actually have to wait 3-4 hours to get a match... Literally. Now people complain about waiting 10 mins ahaha. However, this game wasnt ever really scary to play, but it did have a great sense of horror. Through time it had only gotten better as they added character such as michael myers, the hag, huntress, bubba, freddy, spirit, etc. They did eventually add the cosmetic shop (which i spent way to much on) and was very exciting for the game. Not only would the cosmetics freshen up the game, but it would make killers and survivors more unique. Unfortunately in my opinion, i feel behavoir is selling out and dont have a great plan ahead of him. Each character is roughly a copy&paste of previous ones. That being there power being veey similar to others, but not as "good" or fun. On the other hand, survivors are getting more and more neon colored which really takes away from the horror experiece.
I would also like discuss a little bit on this new guy, the Trickster. The power sounds great, but is really just the old legion that throws stuff (like huntress) but rapidly (similar the plague). Its just feels like a recycled idea. He also DOES NOT look scary at all. The man has pink hair, manly milk gutters for a chest, makes really nasty/sexual type grunts, and is just beyond femine in his stature. The bullets in chest only make him look like he got shot during a protest. His name also just seems completely unrelated to what he does/who he is. Who is he tricking? (Reminds me of the legion trailer doing the same thing but being unrelated to the characters ability). I think the devs came out with the trickster to ride off the cyberpunk hype that crashed and died.
Lastly, all the map changes kind of ruined the horror too. Fornite isnt scary and this game went from having an edgy look....into a cartoon. Also, not a fan of breakable walls on the certains maps that ive played since ive returned to the fog. Breakable walls kill some of the fun tbh.
----This isnt the game i used to play.

I mean to be fair, waiting 3-4 hours for a match on Xbox is insane, but 10 minutes is also not acceptable when it comes to the fast pace nature of this game now.

Hi, i'm pretty new to this game, atleast I think I am, only discovering it like near the end of the SIlent Hill chapter, but I do have veteran friends that basically made me want to get this game, They say that the events back then and the general game used to be more fun than now, and as soon as the Halloween event for 2020 came, it was pretty disappointing for me. I probably joined the game at the worst time.

This has so many "ok DBD boomer" notes in it I think it's a troll.
This is my favorite "he man has pink hair, manly milk gutters for a chest, makes really nasty/sexual type grunts, and is just beyond femine in his stature. The bullets in chest only make him look like he got shot during a protest."
Sounds like a drunk uncle at Thanksgiving talking about the barista at the Starbucks that bought out his old crappy coffee shop lol.

You did. We waited years for blight too and he was just terrible

Id say 10 minutes isnt acceptable but its nothing for people to get their head twisted about.

No of course not, but think of it like this.
If you played every game and it required 10 minutes to just get one match, would that not eventually make you furious? I personally don't experience queue times like that, my max is prolly 3 minutes on either side, but 10 minutes really does add to the frustration if you're looking to play a session for 3 hours or more.
Your previous experience with 3-4 hours is literally unplayable, so I'd argue it isn't the best comparison if you want my brutal opinion.

My point is its been worse as far as que times. It took a long time to get at a 10 min que, however i typically experience 3-5 mins wait. However waiting was always the biggest part of this game for a long time so i dont fret

It's different with everyone honestly, that's really what it boils down to. Like you I also just pass time with a video or something until the match begins, but for others they just want to go from one match to another. Makes sense right? You want to play the game.
And I understand your comparison of course, but it again really depends on perspective. Like I could argue anyone who complains about DS right now doesn't understand the struggle of old DS if they've never faced it, but that isn't really relevant to the current issue right? It was in no way to bash your point, it's just a perspective I'm giving for you to judge I guess.

Your hours in the game mean nothing.
You have a shallow and juvenile understanding of what horror is.
0 -
You are simply just rude and have a sour soul it seems. Yes its not the most horrifying game ever, but its a horror game. Not a fashion contest

He's embellishing. I had the console version at launch, before it took off wait times were long but nowhere near that long.

What is wrong with a feminine man as a killer? Not scary enough for you? In my opinion what makes the game scary is not the appearance of the killer as much as the skill of a player. A good Clown is much scarier than a bad Trapper.

I'm a casual player because of the long Q, that time adds up. If it was within a min. or two, I would absolutely play more.
If majority of the bugs was fixed, I wouldn't take months worth of breaks.
I am not a fan of the new chapter either but I still purchased it to support the game and for the new perks.

Trickster, in any of his current forms, is not scary in the slightest, and that's if you assume he was a mechanically powerful killer (which he is not). David looks like he could choke him out easily, lmao.

People have been saying the same thing about Legion for years, and yet here we are.

Sid you ever try SWF than?

Im sure the trickster would like that though...

His power is trash and no one is good with him yet. Yes, i have a problem with a male character being more feminine than literally every other female killer in the game... Its not scary. Sorry, but if i saw him in the woods i would of thought he was a lost pole dancer.

I wasn't saying the hours played are fake but trolling just the msg...I stand by my "OK DBD Boomer" comment!

This is also true about Legion. The statement doesn't change for either of them.
