My thoughts on a DBD dating sim
Since the newest survey released, talk of a dbd dating simulator has been circulating, and, IMO, I think this would be a good addition to DBD's franchise? (dont remember the word but franchise is close). Right off the chart, the idea is wack, and the internet loves wack things, so when streamers start jumping on the bandwagon, we also get that extra popularity. And besides being able to date ho- I mean psychos from slasher flicks, its also a comedic take on the smash bros of the Asymmetrical genre.

I'd rather have a dbd shopping simulator.

Well, it could be worse. They could do a Konami and introduce a themed Pachinko Machine!
If a dating game were made, I hope it's just one of those fan-made apps or steam games like those that have people date sharks or Bowser or whatever. Not sure if BHVR would benefit from this genre well.

Sexy killer DILFS in your area.

I want to date both Myers and David, yall think they are okay with that?
I don't think freddy should be allowed in the dating sim... his type is pretty illegal

Finally a chance to date the most attractive character in the game, Oni. Hear me out, he's swinging alot more than a sword ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Ought they be known as KILFS?

HOW ABOUT NO!!!!!

Change his backstory to its original version, and we are good to go.
He actually had a wife, back then. And a daughter.

Not wrong ; )

It would fundamentally destroy any immersion of the franchise that I have left. People already go overboard on stupid and unfunny memes, calling killers childish names like calling Wraith "Bing Bong Boy" and Blight "Ping Pong Boy", and naming builds silly things like "crack Hillbilly" and "Burger King Meyers". And then there's shipping of the different survivors together, and shipping different killers together, and sometimes a mix of the 2 roles. I can imagine this kind of stuff influencing the eventual Dead By Daylight movie and pretty much ruining it.
So I hate to be this guy, but if you're for this idea, you're ruining DBD.

How would it ruin dbd? Its a video game that not a lot of people take seriously, have you seen the twitter guy and the devs???
4 -
It should be taken seriously. Just because a majority of people don't doesn't mean they're right. And as we know, even the devs can be wrong. But you guys only support immersion when it's a Claudette hiding in a bush, so I understand.
2 -
What an incredibly tedious idea. Why are gamers so obsessed with which pixel is poking which lol.
4 -
I do wholeheartedly agree with you, but other players are allowed to portray the game the way they want. I take it you don't visit the dbd twitter page much? 😅
2 -
I would love this.
But Bubba, Freddy, Spirit, Legion, and Huntress shouldn't be dateable. Billy is a maybe.
I feel like Pyramid Head and Myers wouldn't be dateable either.

That is so cringey.

"Ghostface isn't just good at watching you when you're alone, he's also a very good listener. Behind that creepy plastic mask is a sweet shy guy just waiting to share his heart (and take yours). Ghostface is always there for you, usually peeping through a window or behind a corner, ready to meet your desires"

I’d buy it and play it multiple times. Probably could also be a place to get more lore outside of the rift, lol.

finally

It's hard to take it seriously when you've got 1k+ hours into the game. A lot of continuing enjoyment is derived from the community and its antics. Like this dating sim idea. lol

Yeah but we have Quentin, isn't he from the movie that made that part of him Canon? You would be erasing a bit of Quentin, wouldn't you?

Are you sure about that?
Apparently, some licenses were already a ######### to get into the game, and it took forever to get Myers anything other than the usual outfit.
Heck, Quentin & Freddy still have nothing new.
0 -
Yes, but it is entirely possible to mix them together. Just add Quentin to the original story.
0 -
If it was a dating sim of DBD, not without Myers, the community won't allow that
1 -
The dialogue with him would just be heavy breathing.
Actually, I withdraw my complaint. That would be amazing.

Sounds romantic...

The in-game news, this forum, and their official instagram account is enough for me.

Everyday I am more inclined to believe that the entity feeds of thirst instead of hope
2 -
Personally, I'd rather we get something else for theoretical spin-off.
I think a puzzle based game where you're in the role of Vigo, or someone like him, would be really interesting.
It'd be cool to explore more of the Entity's Realm and see it from the side of characters who are, at least somewhat, outside the Entity's control.

But if we do end up with a Dating Simulator, I'd hope they play it straight.
No meme-y, alternate reality, cutesy nonsense. Make it about romance between characters who are trapped in an endless hell of life and death that they can never truly escape from.
They could, and should IMO, even feature little trial minigames between dates, where you and the other Survivors can get brutally murdered depending on how well you perform in the minigame.
With the consequence that the dating sequences get harder the more you and your romantic interest get butchered by Huntress, Wraith, or Trapper.
Or easier if your actions during trials are things the character appreciates (maybe one person likes it if you save them from a camping Wraith, maybe another would prefer it if you just did the gens and saved everyone else, maybe one person likes to get chased and appreciates you being fearless too, etc.).
Ideally I'd also rather most of the main cast weren't involved in the story.
Sure, Dwight, Meg, or etc. could, and should, pop up for a cameo or in the trial minigames, but for the actual dating sequences I think it should be mostly all new Survivors specifically for the game.
That way the characters can continue to endure the trials or end up succumbing to despair depending on your choices and minigame performance, to keep some semblance of the survival horror vibe.
And they can also give a variety of LGBTQ+ options without needing to change the main cast's lore.

What is a dating sim ?
1 -
Honestly a horror visual novel based on dbd with dating options would be kinda dope.
Like The Letter but then DbD
2 -
Dead By Daylight dating simu...
*Intensely looking for Oni* O_o
3 -
Oh gosh, I haven't thought about that game in forever.
But yes, I think something along those lines could work for a theoretical DbD dating sim.
Let romance be a big part of the spin-off, but not the only part, and I think it wouldn't be quite as bad or out of tone as some people are making it out to be.
