    Fav: close matches.

    Least: trying out a new Killer/Surv and sbmm gets you stomped.

    My favorite part is leaving survivors with hammer smashed faces on hook.


    My least favorite part is when the killer doesn't leave the hook, like, bro, leave. I need to get unhooked, cuh. I swear these killers are afraid they will get lost if they take 2 steps from the hook.

    Favourite part is probably the lore and design of the character both original and licensed

    least favourite is the balance changes that are seemingly getting worse each patch (5.2.0 was an exception)

    Favorite is the actual horror aesthetic

    Least favorite is ghostface

    Favorite: the feeling of doing well in chase on either side. When I'm actually looping efficiently or pull off a spin / inside tech on the killer and confuse them like my favorite youtubers/streamers do or pull off a sick mind game as killer and know I'm getting better at the game, I get a genuine satisfaction out of the core of this games cat and mouse concept.

    Least favorite: being face camped and hit on the hook and or BMed on either side.


    Bonus favorite thing: legitimately scaring survivors as killer. That brings me the most joy tbh

    My favourite is the fact that every trial is unique, and has many possibilities as to how it plays out.

    My most despised section are the minority who threaten others post-match, or send trash messages. I've been fortunate enough to rarely get any, but it's a worthless response to what is just pressing buttons.

    Favorite: vomit on people. A lot.

    Least favorite: trying to play Bubba without camping against scaredy survivors

    Favorite: Overall, I like to deep dive into the technical gameplay aspects of both sides. If I pick up a killer, I try to really learn the intricacies. Same for survivor. I like to learn the ins and outs of running every killer (yes, it's even possible to run a Nurse). Putting in the practice and seeing the results is rewarding

    Least favorite: Indoor maps. I actually dislike indoor maps on both sides. They take away from a lot of the gameplay that makes up DbD. Zoning, distance management, killer powers in general becoming super restricted, objective clarity for survivors becomes obscured, etc. The maps try to balance out these deficiencies by adding a super high safe tile count.

    You're often left with an incredibly stale game. A good survivor is going to run super early, but the killer's ability to path optimally and safely counter this through zoning is taken away. You're making a series of educated guess and the survivor is too. And you wish you hadn't loaded up at all if you selected Billy or Nurse and got Lerys.

    My favorite part of DBD is the fact that it was once the best game I've ever played, and it made Freddy Krueger its most well-designed killer...for one week.

    My least favorite part of DBD are the reworked maps. Models and powers are devastating to lose, but the reworked maps make me genuinely sick to my stomach.

    Favorite: the lore ,challenges and the guy who does the narration in the tomes so basically the tome system

    Least Favorite: the ##### swamp realm


    Edit apparently editing removes the auto censor so I had those Edit the # back in

    Favorite: As a SoloQ survivor, nothing quite beats the feeling of a bunch of randoms coming together and pulling off some really high risk basement prison break. It's just so satisfying when everything clicks despite not having the ability to really communicate and we all safely get out.


    Least favorite: very highly skilled killers. Getting an 8k hour Blight or Nurse is just a question if we all die within 2 minutes or 3.

  • Idontknowtbh
    Idontknowtbh Member Posts: 472

    I agree with @Carrow on the favourite part.

    When you communicate with random without coms and it works out is the best feeling for me.

    Things that shouldn't pull off and we all come together is just great.


    Least favourite is when you try your very best to communicate at the other player doesn't understand you and cleanses the wrong totem, farm's hooks without BT and potato moves happen one after the other.

    Favorite: Games where I learn, get close matches, barely get the kill / escape.


    Least Fav Killer: People that suicide on first hook, way to mess up you're team because you're salty a killer spawned in your gensim.

    Least Fav Survivor: Sandbagging teammates that team up with the killer.

    Most Favorite: Alot to choose from but to pick a few, i'll go with The lore, the variety of killer power, cosmetics and charms, the indoor maps and realm beyond.

    Least Favorite: Not everyone but a large portion of the community who is on social medias, especially on youtube and twitter.

    Favorite: Pretty much everything about this game. It is fun as a killer to search and hunt survivors just as it is fun as a survivor to hide from the killer, work on generators or run from the killer. The different characters - both, killers and survivors alike -, perks, offerings etc. I particularly like rounds in which everyone (or at least the vast majority) plays fairly with each other and just wants to have fun. I don't care whether I win or lose (as a killer or a survivor). The best thing is when you can have a lively chit chat in the after-chat instead of calling each other losers or threatening each other or finding fault with others. Yes, utopian, but these rounds still exist. I like it when I have an enjoyable challenge in a round that I can learn from too. Well, everything is fine but......

    Least favorite: Camping Ghostface and Wraith (because they're good at hiding). (Face)Campers, tunnelers and sluggers and all different combos of these in general. Whereby I make a distinction between those who do this on the basis of the behaviour of other survivors IN THE TRIAL doing annoying ######### like trolling, senseless clicking around with the torch, three survivors blinding the killer and tea-bagging (I can understand if the killer doesn't want to play fair in that case.) or simply to spoil the fun for others. On the other hand, there are those very survivors who try to spoil the fun of the killers and the survivors by doing the above (and other stuff like body blocking other survivors while both being hunted and therelike) them and simply not playing normally. Rage quits from both sides, inactivity and survivor suicide included. This annoying (not toxic) behaviour spoils the desire to play alone - as a killer or survivor, doesn't matter. I forgot about condescending behaviour in the after-chat. There is no need for insults and threats, especially not from a minor playing a 18+ game.

    Favorite: The friends and memories I've made with this game.

    Least favorite:The tome scenes (extra lore) and charms. I just don't care.

    Favourite: Probably the grind. I like levelling characters, unlocking teachables, getting iri shards.

    Least: Boring Tome challenges, aka "Hide withing 10 meters of the killer as Detective Tapp for 20 seconds." I wanna have fun, not semi afk.
