Favourite killer and survivor?

Can be based on looks, personality, gameplay, lore, outfits, etc.

For me:

Yun-Jin: Best survivor lore hands down imo. I love the idea of having a survivor that’s extremely selfish, which is reflected well in her perks. She stands out because unlike the other survivors, she’s really the only survivor with this mindset, yet she’s not unlikeable due to her tough upbringing. Other than the recent cosmetic which will not be mentioned, her outfits play heavily into her lore, with her using them to stand out to the public which I really love. Also, her voice acting is awesome.

Plague: I love love how amazing she looks. Horror killers are typically in very basic/stereotypical outfits, but hers is anything but. Her immense height helps to keep her as an imposing presence. She has the best theme in the entire game, I wish we could select which music we wanted to play, as I’d have it on all the time. Really though, it all comes down to the fact that her lore is SO good. She has the best tome of all time, with really no competition, making her the most complex character the devs have ever made. It’s baffling how the same team wrote the nurse and hag’s lore, as Plague’s is so far ahead. I’d love if they could somehow do a crypt tv series about her, would be awesome. BHVR, please do more plague, she’s a total star.

    Also, Seoul socialite and maiden guard are possibly the best two outfits they’ve ever made

    As a ANOES fan and Quentin main (along with Yun-Jin and Jake), I support this.

    That is good to hear!

    A Nightmare on Elm Street is definitely the best license they've ever worked with.

    Trickster is my favorite killer. Felix is my favorite survivor.

    I like yun-jin and use her quite often. As for Plague I wanted to main her as she was/is the most interesting for me but just can't get past her flaws and it appears Bhvr don't even realize she exists. Give her some Damn outfits please Legion's next one can wait🙄.

    As for my Top killer that is Pig just love her style and it fits me. Has a few outfits (that can be crossed) and she is very versatile IMO.

    Survivor - Much harder choice her as my rotation has about 10-12 lol. Nancy has always been my main boo but Zarina/Kate just no my weak spots😍

    Kate and Huntress!

    I love Huntress because she's so fun and satisfying to play. And there is always something you can improve while playing her. And I love Kate because... I actually don't know xd

    Said it once, I'll say it again- Oni, 100%.

    Favorite survivor, Steve. Non-licensed, I'll probably go with Yui or Felix.

  • WexlerWendigo

    Yeah, plague is not easy to use, I don’t play her much. I just think her lore is way above anyone else’s.

  • GannTM
    GannTM Member Posts: 10,887

    Ah this is tough. For survivor can I have Meg Yui and Claire all tied? For killer it’s Spirit no doubt.

    Ace, I like how much we don't know about him so it opens up theories about who he is (like how his outfits change how much he looks as if he tries hiding who he is, which is emphasized by his default outfit consisting of a hat and glasses actively hiding his face. For all we know, Ace might not even be his real name, from what little research I did Ace is not a very common Italian name, or common name in general). Plus, he just has very nice and varied cosmetics, and smiles giving him tons of personality (another thing I love: Personality. He speaks personality even in game, he knows breathing techniques and uses them while injured [making him the quietist survivor] which adds to his mystique, why does Ace know Breathing techniques to make him quiet? He also thinks highly of himself resulting in his iconic smug smile and perk quotes)

    Tl;dr: Ace has good lore by not having us know much about it, Ace has a bit of mystery to him I love, and on top of that radiates personality and charm while also having great cosmetics.


    For Killer, Doctor. I just think he's the scariest and coolest killer in the entire game.

    Ghost Face and Leatherface

    For survivors, Leon and Tapp

    Jill and Miss Piggy, but sometimes I play as Élodie ( she was my old main )

    Reason: I like RE3 and I like when people boop my snoot :)

    Cheryl. She's actually my favorite character from Silent Hill. And I love Silent Hill.

    Oni. He was the only Killer I've been really afraid of when I started. The first time I've met him, I was so scared that I was unable to do anything when he found me. He had his power activated—I've heard the "rawr" from away, then he ran to me. The fact he scared me made him my favorite Killer so far.

    Jeff and clown

    Jeff is very relatable and just a cool guy

    Clown is fun to play and disturbing as hell

    The lurking night terror himself. "Normality can be the deadliest killer".

    Survivor it's Kate.

    For Killer its Trapper.

    For survivor, its Meg. I'm definitely a Meg-head, but a pretty good one at that. If not Meg, then David since he's a Chad.

    Killer, its a bit harder.

    I really love Blight's aesthetic, and playstyle. Basically a wrecking pin ball.

    The Stabby Gang.


    The only killers to never miss leg day.


    I guess my survivor is Cheryl.

    Simple.

    I love Evil Dead, and I love Japanese shogunate history. So, easily you-know-who and you-know-who.


    And while I love Scream, Stranger Things and A Nightmare on Elm Street, nothing can come close to the sheer looks of the Oni.

    I love Meg Thomas!



    I don't play as a killer, so I can tell you who I hate: spirit!

    I've really come to like Nemesis. Neat mix of anti-loop and intel wrapped into one package, feels pretty satisfying to play.

    For survivors, I favor the man-candy options: David, Felix and Chris. I wish Felix had gotten a beachwear skin so we can get a peek at what's underneath the suit!
