Do you think you’ll buy the new killer with these new changes?

I personally won’t because he’s still going to be weak af, but I’m more curious to see who will and won’t be buying the new killer. I know some who will get him because they like to have games “complete”.

    Yeah, with shards. It is not worth real money.

    I will, since I like to support the game that I really like. Not like it's extremely expensive to buy DLCs anyway.

    I bought everything, and gonna buy this one too.

    I was displeased with the spirit too, however, despite forum members claiming that the devs favor one side over the other, they actually care about it and fix them. Spirit is a top tier killer now, and this one is gonna improve in the future as well, I am sure of it.

    I love supporting the games I play.

    Spirit was easier to balance than this killer. I’m not sure they’re going to do anything too drastic. If only they’d give him 115% speed.. that’d be an easy, good fix imo

    Would make him overpowered. They said in one of the forum posts that that is not going to happen.

    I'm still torn. 
    I've bought almost every DLC twice (Once on PC, once on ps4, freddy only once though before he got freddied) and gifted the game and some DLC a bunch. 

    This time around I'm tempted to just get Jeff with Shards, but I'm worried someone over at BHVR will decide "Hey wait a sec, maybe we should make this killer something people will actually play" and then I'll end up buying the DLC anyways because I like Jeff's slightly different shaded shirt better. 
    Plus discordance is actually good. 

    I just don't want to pad the numbers so some dude in a suit can just see people bought it and give the OK to keep Legion trash since money talks.

    I need a magic 8 ball for this decision  :lol:

    I wont even get him with shards, no desirable perks.

  • Attackfrog

    I never buy a killer right after release.

    I wait for it to go on sale.

    I also wait for the inevitable "balance" changes.

    Then I buy!

    NO
    And that's a shame, i was going to buy the full chapter, the two killer skins, black metal jesus and #########, since i spent all my hoarded shards on matsuri thingies, and now I WILL NOT, killer is top #########, these seems more like QOL changes that don't adress the killers biggest problem, like, at all.

  • ReneAensland
    ReneAensland Member Posts: 838

    No. Killer seems very boring. There isn't a "Oh ######### it's Legion." factor with him/her.

  • twistedmonkey
    twistedmonkey Member Posts: 4,296

    Bought every DLC so far to support the dev's, nothing in this DLC says I should this time not even the perks are that great, I just don't think the killer is fun to play with or versus, mend doesn't have the desired effect to prolong a game for Legion when no one wants to heal, its overall a very tedious mechanic.

    As long as they release crap content, they won't see any money from me.

    Supernaut Member Posts: 1,532

    I will continue to buy every DLC Chapter. Spirit was horrible to start, but with practice and know-how, is one of the better killers.
    Freddy may be trash, but is still fun! Here's hoping the same for The Legion!

    I like the concept of the killer. The lore is really interesting and the fact that you are able to change characters. The Legion is going to be my main killer.

    People said The Spirit was weak, now look at her. I think once the chapter is officially released it will have the same outcome. 
  • ad19970

    I'll be getting him with ingame currency, even if just for the new perk Discordance, which I see some potential in. Really hope it will be as good as I expect it to be.

    I don't get the drama people are putting up about this new killer right now. So they screwed up a bit with the new killer. The last two dlc killers, Clown and Spirit, both turned out to be very viable. No reason to say that the devs don't care about killers.
    If they buff Legion to the level of a Top Tier killer, he'll easily become by far the most hated killer in the game, cause there is very little survivors can do against him that affects the chase.

  • BeanieEnthusiast

    I’ll buy it but only because I’m an achievement #########. His changes are a joke. 
  • Condorloco_26
    Condorloco_26 Member Posts: 1,714

    No I won't. I just don't like the idea at all. I have bought all the other killers though. But I'm not drawn into playing this one. I just consider him a non-threat at all. Not scary. Even the looks yell "weak" in my opinion.

    I already said this on many threads but, I think at least a couple of survivors would be able to manhandle this guy (or gal, whatever) and give him a nasty beating. Tapp and David at least, could do that if they wanted.

    And I feel no need to play tag with virtual people I don't know.

    I'm gonna buy the chapter but I think I'm done with killer. These changes have pretty much destroyed half the game for me. It really hurts because I've bought every chapter because I wanted to support the devs for making my favorite game, but these changes really shaft killers.
  • Unnamed_Freak

    I'll buy the killer with shards, this DLC don't deserve any money.

  • thesuicidefox
    thesuicidefox Member Posts: 8,223

    Probably. I'd like to have the perks even if I don't end up using them I need everything unlock for completionist sake. Also I don't mind supporting developers that make games I enjoy and play often. I've bought games before just to do that.

  • Theluckyboi
    Theluckyboi Member Posts: 1,113

    Just use iridescent shards, the killer won´t cost money i am sure about that

    I probably wont either. Not because Legion will be under powered they could buff them in the near future, the meta will change because of Distortion/locker and every survivor will nab that perk just because it counters bbq, nurses, rancor, iron maiden, and bitter murmur and killers will camp and patrol harder more because they have no incentive to leave the hook. It will make the game more frustrating and toxic for both sides and I won't support BVHR intentionally making the game more toxic by design, the only way they could goof this up harder is making Insidious baseline for Killers.

  • Dreamnomad
    Dreamnomad Member Posts: 3,965

    I have 18,000 shards waiting. I will unlock him no matter how bad he might be. They did a pretty good job addressing issues with The Clown and The Spirit after they were released. I expect there will be another patch or two tuning him/her to where they need to be with in the next couple of months.

    Pretty sure I will. The killer might have flaws but is really fun to play (and judging by how they managed the last killers will probably get better). Also: Jeff. I love that guy.

  • suffering23
    suffering23 Member Posts: 230

    i will, i buy every single dlc because i love this game, i bought leatherface dlc even if i DESPISE this killer, love the perks tho, i will play legion but for sure i won't main him until they give him the right changes, because the "changes/buff" they got are a total joke, they barely change ANYTHING at all

    Nice. Attacking people with baseless insults. 

    On to the point.... some people enjoy playing idk...what's the term....for fun? And enjoy the killer regardless of if he can 4k? 

    Why ######### on someone elses sandwich just because you're not hungry?

    baseless. whats baseless about what i said when the killer cant kill besides making them need to mend and the power useless i define that as annoying a chore and frustrating. if you blow your money on that to me or most people do well that does make them a moron. im entitled to my opinion dont like it well. life goes on. lol. well to me i dont define fun by a killer who isnt able to do the objective of actually kill or be efficient but hey im sure others agree as well. so. im not everyone else. you mean speak my mind and not be a blind sheep who wastes money on crap? ok. nothing else to say.

    I'm out of shards so yeah, I'll buy the chapter.
    I like four of the six perks.
    Play the killer though? Maybe. I think they need to make him less frustrating to play. The vaulting and chasing multiple survivors is fun though.

    I already wrote in another thread about it:

    @Freudentrauma said:
    I belong to the group of people dealing with perfomance issues with the engine changes. So I already knew I will have to hold back buying the new DLC on Launch, depending how the game runs after patch. But after reading this... I've decided to wait anyway.
    Spirit already was launched in a way they didn't intended and basicly finished balancing wise with the MidChapter patch. A few weeks after that Spirit DLCs was already in sale.
    Legion looks like they won't be properly balanced befor MidChapter. And who knows how fast the next DLC might get in sale as well. No I will sit this one out. I'm too unsatisfied with recent killer designs. Even the AddOns are quite boring mostly simple value changing ones.

    Maybe, as a completionist I would hate seeing that icon locked. He definently needs some buffing though, and to think almost all of their original DLC killers are pretty decent. Nurse was great, doctor only needed a few changes, hag is godlike now, huntress is good, Clown was pretty good and spirit became top-tier but now Legion seems to be the first underwhelming original killer. Freddy was scarier to verse when he released, Legion is just underwhelming to play against but if they change one wrong thing he can become really OP. He needs to be good not OP
