Terminator in DBD

Judging by the new teaser, looks like we will have the T-800:

-slugs a survivor- "I'll be back" in Arnold's voice

-hooks a survivor- "I'll be back"

Nah make it the t-1000 it's unique ability is after hitting a survivor it can take on there appearance. To catch survivors off guard. It looses the terror radious and the red stane. If it starts working on a gen survivors are also working on the gen explodes cause different status effects to the survivors who were working on said Gene. And as mentioned have different blades of the liquid armor apendeges be the different cosmetics etc.

Teaser points to it being Pinhead / Hellraiser.

Terminator would be a tad ridiculous since he uses guns and the like, wouldn't really fit the DBD image.

...

there are times he didn't use his machete. Just because he prefers it, doesn't necessarily mean he can't hunt without them. Jason fully capable of killing at any range (ex. Friday the 13th 2-X)

Congratulations on the very generic statement that totally doesn't work for literally any other character. Let's see.

there are times he didn't use his claws. Just because he prefers them, doesn't necessarily mean he can't hunt without them. Freddy is fully capable of killing at any range (ex. All nightmare movies)

there are times he didn't use his chainsaw. Just because he prefers it, doesn't necessarily mean he can't hunt without them. Leatherface is fully capable of killing at close range (ex. Texas chainsaw massacre, all of them)

I can go on... do I need to?

Yes. Him being from a slasher changes everything. How dare I compare 2 movie icons by their prefered method of killing? I don't deserve to hear your supreme ideas, o' wise one.

You have a very vague understanding of what a strawman is don't you?

Of course Jason, Leatherface, Freddy etc would be remembered by the weapons that are so synonymous and iconic to what they used in the movies. The Terminator and guns are not anywhere near that correlatable. Let me ask you, before any of the other Terminator movies before the first one were made, what did people think of when they saw the T-800 endoskeleton? They remembered the most iconic chase scene of Sarah and Kyle at the end because that is the first thing that came to mind. They thought of a Terminator lumbering towards them, not just using his UZI from a distance and ruining the suspense. In fact, from what I remember, people didn't even think of the endoskeleton opening scene with a plasma rifle, just the ending. Why you would ever compare the weapons that have become "one" with the iconic villain they are wielded by in a slasher genre to a sci-fi android with a whole arsenal and methods of eliminating his victims, which he gladly takes advantage of unlike your examples?

You compare characters from a slasher genre who almost always have one or two weapons that that they're known by throughout the whole series to a character that uses multiple methods of killing. Using so much more VARIETY unlike Jason and the others.

I understand fully what a strawman argument is, thank you very much. And you provided a perfect example of that. You go ahead and try to refute my argument by exaggerating and using synonymous weapons of slasher characters of little to no relevance to the Terminator and why he MUST use his guns and therefore cannot be in DBD. But unfortunately, your inflated ego wouldn't allow you to realize it.

Take my money I'll buy w/o hesitation.
