More reasons why Lady Dimitrescu is going to be the new Killer
REASONS WHY
So I have been doing some research and here is what I found
- For at least seventy years between the 1950s and 2020s, she was tied to a series of violent homicides.
That sounds like basic killer material, right?
- Dimitrescu was a follower of a Satanic witch-cult which practiced vampirism and human sacrifice, possibly for sustenance
Human sacrifice? Hmm... sounds familiar. This would mean Dimitrescu would want to be a part of the entity's realm other than fight it. Once again, sounds like killer material to me.
- According to the RE wiki "Dimitrescu's origins are presently a mystery, in particular the questions of her age, and whether she was born with a Progenitor disease or contracted it later."
- Among Dimitrescu's traits post-infection is the ability to elongate her fingernails into razor-sharp claws.
- DBD easter Egg in the Dimitrescu Castle https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSli18sLPJE
- There is also a wonderful video comparing hight to other DBD characters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUnovu1QdSw
- She can always bend trough doors like she does in the game
Just these things make Dimitrescu the perfect killer material for this game.
Just look how good she can fit in the game, she looks similar to plague in height and body.
Plus if you think she is too tall for the game and they can't change her Demo is literally 7-10 feet tall about the same height as Dimitrescu and they changed his hight
It's also a easy money grab
EDIT, For people saying the chapter is developed about a year before the release, the RE 8 trailer was released in June 2020 and Lady Dimitrescu appeared in it, people started talking about her long before RE 8 released. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NEhQL6qxHM

So why does Nemesis who is a monstrous brute that does what ever he is commanded to do that also has a huge arsenal of weapons and is an iconic Res character does not fit in the game but a new fancy vampire lady character that has Freddy gloves fits better in the game?
Not joking since just kinda confused here cause I find Nemesis more threatening than her.
[Said this because before edit post said something about Nemesis not fitting in game but Lady does so leaving this here incase anyone is confused why I said this]

It's a way for Cap Com to get more money. They want to give the RE8 game more attention. I don't think they will go with an "iconic" character. Plus, not many people care about Nemesis until a few months ago and he has a Rocket Launcher? But we will have to see, I'm just speculating

As a non Resident Evil fan who has really only watched people play RE7 and RE8.
Lady D is so, so boring. There's nothing special about her. She's tall. She's hot (debatable). She has claws. Her personality is incredibly generic. Cool? I don't know anything about the older Resi Evil games, but I sincerely hope they choose Mr. X or Nemesis because they at least look more visually interesting. Keep in mind, this is all subjective. If you like Lady Dimtestricu, more power to you. Opinions are opinions. I personally thought she was a huge disappointment from all the hype, and continues to be.
I also sincerely doubt it will be Lady D. The 'teaser' when Resi Evil announced it on their livestream had a male survivor (Felix, in specific) and a bunch of generic zombie sounds, and an Umbrella charm. Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I've seen Lady D has little to nothing to do with generic zombies or Umbrella.
Sounds like you really want Lady D, and that's fine. But there is little to no evidence other than hearsay to say it will be Lady D.

All I'm gonna say is, don't get your hopes up
5 -
I don't it's going to be her, mostly because the chapter was being developed since last year probably and at that time capcom had no idea Lady D was going to be so popular.
5 -
But we already have someone with claw hands....
0 -
My guy you are really insistent about this.
As much as I want Lady D and think she'd work in the game fine, I don't think it's gonna be her.
3 -
You can't seriously say Mr X and Nemesis are more interesting than an actual being. They are just mindless mute bioweapons. All they have going is being ugly and defeated by a rookie cop or a woman. At least Dimitrescu has a backstory, motivations, an actual character design that is not "Bald tall man in trash bag"

Tbh I don't think they would add a killer who would have to duck down to get through most doorways.
1 -
- She is wayy taller than Plague, she would have to crouch very low to even go through doorways. In Demo's case, they have varying heights of 6-10ft which makes implementing them easy since they can choose a height that fits better, plus he is always hunched over. Lady D is a solid 9ft6in tall, where Nemesis is around 7ft3in (Not much taller than killers we have, making him not need to crouch through doors much if at all)
- She has no notable powers aside from strong regeneration and razor claws. No way they would add her mutated form bc of the size.
- Having her as the killer would be a big loss in profit for the devs since the game she's in only came out a month before the actual chapter
I get people are on the hype train for RE8, but adding a character that was only properly introduced a month prior would not sit well with the fans of RE who've been around for a while.

You clearly didn't read what I said. I said they look more visually interesting. And wanna know something shocking? I can say they're more interesting! Wanna know why?
Opinions!
Are!
Subjective!
God, people like you make me hate the internet sometimes. I personally do not like Lady Dimitrescu. I personally find her very boring. I PERSONALLY would rather either Nemesis or Mr. X because I think they have more visually neat looks.
These are all a matter of MY OPINION.
11 -
- You didn't state it like an opinion, you stated it like a fact. You didn't say "I think she's boring" or "I don't like her". You outright made the claim that she's boring.
- Stop taking everything like a personal attack, me telling you she's not boring doesn't mean you have to make a rant attacikng me with some pathetic "people like you make me hate the internet", I don't care if you have a ######### life and anger issues, don't take it out on me.

I just want so say the latest killer was a killer obsessed with his victims screams if that's the minmual it takes for the entity to choose them any of the re cast could fit
0 -
- Again, you clearly did not read my initial post. At the end of my first paragraph, I literally state "Keep in mind, this is all subjective. If you like Lady Dimtestricu, more power to you. Opinions are opinions. I personally thought she was a huge disappointment from all the hype, and continues to be." How is that me "making the claim she's boring." But yeah, I didn't state it like an opinion.
- I'm not taking this as a personal attack. It just irks me when people say some idiotic claim like "You can't say [Blank]" because I quite easily can. If anybody stated anything as fact, it was you.
- I'm quite content with my life right now actually, but I have had a bad day and I took it out on you. I apologize, I shouldn't have done that.

is anyone saying she isn't killer material? no.
she's just not the most likely killer to come from RE.
2 -
I provided a DBD easter egg video in the post. That is a piece of evidence. Plus, I was saying why, and there is no evidence for any other RE killer, I was just speculating. I don't need to have a whole essay of evidence when I'm just speculating who the killer is going to be
1 -
So?
1 -
Lol, Agreed
2 -
I was saying she is similar to plague not exact, I'm speculating, stop taking this so seriously and stop attacking my opinions
1 -
I think its u likely that she will be the RE killer. The developement started way before all the tall girl.
And her height would have some weird interactions. You'd spot her instantly on open maps and doors would break her back.
Still hoping she'd somehow make it.

It's unlikely Capcom is putting all their eggs in one basket, especially since back when this killer started being worked on the trailer for RE8 hadn't been released yet and so no one had any idea if fans would take to Lady Dimitrescu.
To capitalize on as many fans as possible, it's more likely the characters coming to DbD will be from the older games. Hell, Capcom probably took into consideration whether or not they should only use characters from the games who appeared in those stupid movies, because yeah, there are a lot of people who only ever saw the movies and didn't play the games.
Smart businessmen bank on nostalgia and a dedicated, pre-existing fanbase; they don't bank on prayers and giantess fetishists.
If the characters coming to DbD are from RE8, then congrats, DbD got used for a quick buck as a second form of advertising, but with the risk that people who play DbD would just buy her and forego RE8 altogether because hey, she's in this game they already own and for way cheaper.
Again, it's more likely we'll see older characters who were in both the games and the movies, because that's how you grab the interest of the highest number of people. It'd be pretty stupid to bring in RE8 characters, because then you're milking the same group of people and you don't know how large of a group that is because even the trailer for RE8 hadn't been released yet when DbD started working on this killer. It doesn't matter who she is or what she looks like or what her background story is, she's a bad choice because she doesn't tick the necessary boxes to be a good representative character for a large franchise celebrating its 25th year.

It could be a piece of evidence. It could just be them putting in an easter egg since they are now working with BHVR. Either way, it is a cool little detail. I'd say the Umbrella and the generic zombies would be evidence for others, but I don't know enough about RE to say.
0 -
They weren't attacking your opinions, they were giving valid reasons as to why Lady D wouldn't fit into the game from a mechanical point of view, how would a 9'6" woman walk around in shack? She would essentially have to crouch down in order to fit inside.
4 -
People had started talking about her last year in June because of the Trailer released that she appears in: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NEhQL6qxHM. they knew she was a likable character long before the game was released
1 -
Demo is literally 7-10 feet tall
You are hurting your own argument. There is a huge difference between 7 and 10 feet. Put a yardstick on top of your head and then decide how that works out as far as height.
Also, a good chunk of your argument is "she is going to be the Killer because she is good Killer material."
7 -
She appeared in this trailer back in June 2020 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NEhQL6qxHM, about before the development started, this was right before the Silent hill release. People knew she would be a character way before the game was released
1 -
Stop attacking my opinion, I'm just describing my thoughts. No need to be rude
1 -
All the reasons you provided are reasons why she would fit in the game. Not why Capcom and BHVR would want her in Dead by Daylight. Is she a big meme? Sure, but so were Mr. X and Nemesis when they first got re-introduced in the remakes. Both Mr. X and Nemesis are more iconic characters however. Capcom doesn't really need to add a RE8 character for them to get the sales up. They just need a good, iconic and solid killer in DBD that grabs attention so DBD players are left wondering what their games have to offer. Granted, she is probably the most iconic character of RE8 and it would make the most sense for them to add her if they're going to add a RE8 character, but when they started developing the DBD killer, they didn't know whether or not Lady D would turn into this big meme.
P.S.: Capcom is kind of known for their use of generic sound design, which is exactly what that scream in the castle was. A scream that is used in multiple games. I believe someone on twitter even found the sound effect for completed generators in another RE game.

I hope not.
The outpouring of simperfaction will blow the Trickster reveal out of the water.

"Demo is 7-10 feet tall" is not an opinion.
7 -
Seems right "Also, a good chunk of your argument is "she is going to be the Killer because she is good Killer material.""
2 -
Is that an incorrect observation on my part?
3 -
Yes it is, I provide many other details
1 -
"Look, Lady Dimitrescu is tied to homicides. Pretty KILLER-LIKE, EH?"
That is a good chunk of what you are saying. Then you mention height things that are more points against her than in favor.
8 -
I feel like there's the people who would love to see Lady D and then the people who hate her and just want to tear down the opinions of anyone who likes her and wants her in the game and be rude AF
I would love to see her as our next killer, I think she fits in just fine in every regard except the height issue. Shrink her to the size of the tallest doorways or give her a bending animation for doorways, problem solved? The real reasons I'm not sure she'd be in is because she's SO new and while she is iconic she isn't actually iconic because of lasting power. Also she talks, I'm not sure if they'd be opposed to that since almost all killers don't really talk with a few minor exceptions.
I honestly think they'll go with Nemesis or Mr. X and Jill. They're gonna do maximum bang for their buck / best representation of the series like Konami did with Pyramidhead and Cheryl.
OR who knows maybe they will surprise us and it will be Dimitrescu and Ethan. I'd be shocked but happy either way though
2 -
You clearly dont even know RE, Nemesis has the rocket launcher for one chase scene in RE3, which lasts about a minute.
This is like your 5th post about Lady Dimitrescu now just stop its cringe now.
7 -
Obviously there is nothing practical stopping them from shrinking Lady D. The question is "Would Capcom want that?" My guess is no because of the amount they'd have to shrink her by. Bending over doorways requires multiple new animations to accomodate for different situations occuring at a low height. Not really worth it if you can just pick a different character instead.
5 -
Stop being horny lmao
8 -
People found out that the voice actress for that scream is indeed the same voice actress for Meg.
0 -
By that logic, almost every other Resident Evil killer would fit even better.
Did you played the game btw? Lady D is extremly boring and got soooo less screentime.
Shes only so hyped because people are so horny.
8 -
??? I never attacked any opinions and Plague is at most 7ft, so there is a huge height difference.
Also I should mention that there have been several more concrete hints that the chapter will feature classic characters.
0 -
I don't feel like it'd be a good idea to change the height of Lady D considering there is a lore related reason as to why she is as tall as she is. I personally think she'd look odd if she was made to be shorter. Although it's not something I'd rule out happening.
Having her bend down to go through doors does sound like a good idea but then you consider the fairly large amount of work that would need to go into it to actually make it look good as there is so much potential for a large amount of her clipping through things. Just something as simple as her turning around while bending down in a doorway is going to mean her clipping pretty far into most doorways as they aren't usually wide.
First of all they need to put a system in place that detects when she should bend down, which is probably quite a bit of work. Then they would likely need to create extra animations on top of this, such as her swinging, carrying someone and getting stunned while bending down. Another thing they would probably need to do is move the flashlight blinding zone whenever she bends down.

It's not gonna happen, it'll be a disaster if they do cause if they will kill RE8 if they use her in this game because all killers come out crappy until they buff them. They're not gonna use a BRAND NEW killer

That makes no sense
1 -
They could also profit by getting attention for ALL the RE games instead of just the one, and thats by using recognized characters from the franchise.

one thing, SHE IS TOO TALL

There's a difference between thinking straight and thinking horny

The devs have confirmed that the new killer is NOT lady Dimitrescu.

If there isn't a realistic bounce mechanic, I predict much online screeching.
