Do you know these type of games?

Hi guys.

Do you know these type of games, where you had such bond with for years and then they become more and more popular, developers do lots of changes and suddenly the magic is gone?(Reminds me of MapleStory).

You keep beating the bush around the new game and try to blend into it and it's new changes but after realizing something is missing, you eventually move on and always have nostalgia rushes of that awesome game you have used to play for so long.

That, ladies and gentlemen is where DBD is going. with all these new changes and the still increasing popularity of the game, we're coming to this point.

    I agree.

    I've reached that point months ago. From 2018 to early-2019, DBD provided me with a level of enjoyment that no other game could. To this day, Old DBD is my favorite game, and most likely always will be.

    But whatever the hell we have now...I hate it, and I want it to burn! Reworks and changes ruin this game bit by bit, and I hate it.

    I really want my game back. And it is always good to see that I am not the only one.

    that's how I was with Rainbow Six Siege, used to be an amazing game which I played religiously and loved to bits. But after around Y3S1 I felt the game started heading in a direction I didn't like, and the player base started to grow to a point where it was beginning to see a lot of sweatier people join, followed by an influx of people using mouse n keyboard, now the game is almost unplayable for your average controller player like myself. Yea I could have an odd fun game, but most of the time it's just MnK sweats and ridiculous operators that never should have been added.

    There is certainly a huge divide between 2018 to now. In atmosphere and feel.

    Completely agreed. I was even joking that we basically play in Daylight on the Maps. Then they introduced the Coldwind-Rework..

    It's the WWE games for me.

    I'm an old school wrestling fan and the product has been in steady decline since 1999, but I still used to CONSOOOOOM the annual WWE game.

    But in recent years, the possibility of including popular legends in to the games has been exhausted: the novelty has truly worn off.

    And what with lawsuits, politics and contracts getting in the way of old school wrestlers being included...the magic is truly gone. The actual WWE television product is also a polluted toilet.

    With DBD, whilst I still enjoy the game (or at least try to), I certainly have been more conflicted since the addition of the Rift Pass and the bugs that renew with each new DLC. It's sad but true.

    Mine was Sonic the Hedgehog, sorry I'm old lol.

    I loved the old 2d games, and mania, but after Sonic Adventure 2 the games started to feel less and less enjoyable, the only exception to this being Sonic generations.

    They were changing them for the better but when they started making them how they thought worked best instead of listening to the fans, they seriously went downhill.

    Look at the reputation Sonic games have now, everyone expects the worst but hopes for the best. They may pull one good game out from a bunch of shoddy ones now.

    I fear this is how Dead by Daylight is going. BHVR are doing what they think works and barely listening to fan feedback.

    I was watching some old footage from 2018 DBD back when I started and I never actually noticed just how much more atmosphere there was in the darker maps. It's a real shame how bright the maps are now. Maybe that's why I like Midwich so much. It's more like the original DBD maps than the original DBD maps.

    The ambiance of Midwich certainly holds a more endearing feel than a lot of the reworked maps.

    Mine was Runescape. I still pine for that game as it was... christ, over a decade ago. I feel old. But there's nothing recognizable anymore.

    Luckily I'm still having plenty of fun with DBD. I don't think I've been around long enough to be disillusioned. I do wholly agree that daylight maps are profoundly out of place and I don't like them or want more of them. The old Coldwind yellow-night was kind of neat - it gave me the feel that it was lit by a distant wildfire, like Billy had set one of the old farm buildings alight.
