Interview Series episode 2: GoodBoyKaru

If I burned my hand on the stove, would you kiss it tenderly to make it better?

No

feels bad.

This better?

26) Freddy is definitely a high priority for needing a change, as well Huntress. Hopefully they'll address Freddy's... issues, as well as Huntress' literal beachball hitboxes in a way that works this time. Also on Huntress, they need to address her add-ons; exhaustion hatchets need to go, cooldown add-ons need a nerf, iribelt needs to be neutered from the game, and she needs another ultra rare.

IMO they also need Spirit on that list for a full power rework, and she needs that done ASAP. IMO a higher priority than anyone else. Nurse needs bugfixes but hopefully she remains relatively untouched.

Demo is... he's fine, needs some minor power number tweaks. Rat liver basekit, maybe the ability to instantly teleport to any portal on the map without needing to place one first then have a portal placed where he was if he has one available, idk. Also the ability to remove the oldest portal on the map to open a new one and he should be in a great spot.

I have a question for you: Legion? Or Legion?

understandable, have a nice day.

Those aura perks? Get rid of them. Reduces the grind and helps solos because, again, you shouldn't have to use perks or items for information SWF get for free. Rework them into something else, or just genuinely delete them. Give each character 2 unique perks instead of 3 or something. Whatever the solution, solos need massive buffs immidiately if not sooner.

And yes, whilst it could be problematic for stealthier killers or Oni (doesn't really matter with Oni his terror radius is different so you know it's him as soon as you hear the heartbeat) it would be overall beneficial for game health because then you could balance killers around all survivors knowing a lot more than they do now. Wraith would really struggle due to stealth being his biggest factor (the super lunge is nice)? He's now significantly faster, growls much less, uncloaks quicker, etc.

In terms of how to make every killer competitve at that level, I can't go into detail on how I'd attempt to fix every killer because genuinely a lot of them are unsalvageable. Legion and Twins, for example, just need complete entire kit reworks to be viable at top-level play vs top-level, co-ordinated survivors. Maybe with these kit reworks they can make them actually fun to face too. Others, like Clown, need actual mobility abilities, because their power in a chase is on-point (aka make the speed boost gas actually useful for traversing the map).

29) Not really, actually. For example, take Clown and Freddy. If Clown's yellow gas was much more impactful in terms of map mobility then they'd still play significantly differently. Clown's anti-loop would be stronger, and he could use his mobility to get to anywhere on the map. Freddy could get to generators, and whilst he'd still have anti-loop, his sleep timer and generator defence would make him play differently, much more defence oriented over Clown's more aggressive style.

30) In my opinion, it should be balanced around good Rank 1 survivors and killers, and around comms (already been through the whole "buff the ######### out of solos" tirade). At lower ranks, many people won't know how to get the most out of their killers or survivors, and at higher ranks when people are more experienced then they'd still be fighting skill vs skill.

Maps are... entirely dependant. For some killers, they're amazing, and for other's they're abysmal, so it's very hard to say. For example as Pyramid Head, Dead Dawg Saloon is without a doubt his worst map, but for Nurse it's one of her best. Hawkins is bad for both of them, but Wraith thrives there.

The current design of maps, though, is atrocious. Going off of the reworked maps and their most recently released ones before that- Midwich and Saloon- they're just awful. Saloon has bad pallets so the gameplay loop is hold W to main building, hold W around main building, or hope they don't run to main building and don't get me started on the breakable walls. Midwich is just... W. Badham is genuinely atrocious for everyone and everything, Yamaoka is... it's okay, very immersed but the loops aren't very safe so that's nice at least. Ormond is actually okay now, even if the short loops make using PH's power impossible. Autohaven is atrocious; the walls solved nothing, the graphical update just means you can't see, and they're still RNG dependant. They completely ruined MacMillan estate (hey Storehouse how we doing), too, and I think that's all.

Basically, maps are now awful for both sides, but killers have been hit even harder and they best be bringing a killer buff soon (and a delete key, or third rework, to Badham).

Okay, so keys. Add an opening animation to unlocking the hatch, substantially limit the time the hatch is open for, and make them the keyring instead of the key. You can attach add-ons as necessary, however there's a Rare add-on that allows you to unlock the hatch. Why rare? Because of the amount of rare things in a survivor's bloodweb it'd actually make it harder to find than a very rare or ultra rare

Also maps are in desperate need for a buff. The rainbow map is good but the green map needs more things it can track, then the rainbow map would track everything and for longer too.

Medkits could maybe do with a slight nerf imo.

Toolboxes are fine.

Flashlights are fine, though they could do with an add-on pass tbh

Also make Firecrackers a permanent item.

(also if I don't respond its currently 1:24am, I've stayed up till like 5am for the last past week and so I'm really tired, and will probably have fallen asleep. Be patient and I'll get back asap)

I look forward to it.

I'll see you all tomorrow, the Pope of the Holy Donkerydoo wishes you all a blessed sleep!

If you edit a post or comment to tag someone they don't get notified.

David, because shirtless. Claudette also has some incredibly cute outfits. On the killer side easily Wraith.

actually, on controllers you can just spin the analog stick.

works the same, a lot less damage to the stick

I agree I'd love to see more of these as well

I'm fine with my custom perk icons and 60fps thanks

60fps in lery's main room and hawkins and midwich and corn... Now that's the life.
