Any particular reason you play that certain survivor?

I personally play Kate for 2 reasons.
1. If the killer should see me, I should be seen.
2. I like looking at someone pretty when I play.
Why do you play your survivor? (Except you P3 Claudet mains. We all know why you play her.)

    Ace

    why?

    because he is lucky AF, even when i am playing without any luck offerings i still unhook myself and get ultra rares on chest, also lets not ignore the fact that he still smiles when he is being brutally murdered by any killer.

    I play Kate 'cause I like both her story and her looks.
    She's pretty. <3

    When I want to practice chases I use Kate and her Windows of Opportunity perk, wearing the USA shirt. Killers target me when I wear that.

    I started with Claudette because I liked her backstory and P 3'd her since she was my 1st character and didn't realize she was considered toxic. But I had killers that easily found me and they agreed the whole toxic thing was stupid.

    They also said they had no issues for the most part like me in finding P3 Claudettes since they always knew where to look. Most of these killers also played Claudette and thus knew how she played and the same for other characters.

    I use Dwight simply because I have more perks on him but my ideal survivor hasn't come out yet. I'll use anyone depending on what I feel like looking at.

    It was because when my brother introduced me to DBD we joked about how he looks a lot like him., after a short time i realized the grind takes forever and i need WGLF.

    Thats how i became a David main.

    I play a few for different reasons.

    Feng- As @Vietfox said "she's simply the best one."

    Claudette- Because the best chase is the one that never happens.

    Dwight- Because he is bae.

    Ace- I only play Ace with his Leopard shirt since I have a 100% escape rate with that shirt and it makes my friends mad.

    Nea- Only because she got a cat sweater.

    All the others I only play because I have a daily...

    Dwight in the Vigo's Apprentice outfit (yes, I bought it, I am weak) makes him my current main.

    I like Nea's perks the best and her cat sweater is amazing.

    David is third because I like his stock outfit the most, and WGLF is instrumental in getting BP if you're lucky enough to get it in the bloodweb.

    Min mostly. Stealth gen jockey. Not concerned heavily with rescues. I try to avoid them, too. I'd rather try and make sure enough gens are done for an escape. 

    Nea coz i just like her.
    Especially now with her green hair.

    Kate got lucky on the web.

    I mean, I usually play Feng Min because I connect to her as a gamer more than I do with any of the others, but the completionist in me is causing me to get all the others to level 10 right now so I can adept them.

    Otherwise though, I play them because of dailies.

    I play Kate because she's pretty. I may start playing Feng when she gets that new dress, though.

    I actually started as Claudette when I was a newbie 'cause she was one of the suggested characters to start as and she had self-care. Shortly after that, I moved to Nea, then Meg, and have settled on Kate since she came out. I go between playing Meg and Kate, though. I need to get all the perks on Nea and Claudette still.

    Laurie because I am Halloween fan. And I got used to her.
    Feng because she was the first one I chose for repairing skill and look :D. Now I don't use the generator perk anymore, but she is still my top.

    Quentin, claudette and meg
    I like meg for the perks, claudette for his backstory and quentin because i really like the movie <3

    David because he's hot and he's eye candy for me, Dwight because I just think he's a cutie and he kind of reminds me of me, plus I love his pajama cosmetics!!! I also Like Quentin, Laurie and Tapp simply because I like their characters. Also Claudette when I wanna be stealthy

    Claudette became my main as my friend suggested to level Meg for SB as it was 20 sec cd back in the day and then level up Claudette for SC + SB combo.

    I hate the fog.

    And hooks.

    And campers, and tunnelers, and WGLF farmers...

    Nea, Because when I started playing stealth 2 of her perks were in my build. I’ve been using her since

    Feng Min.
    Madame Feng 
    Waifu Min
    Give us Bunny Min already

    Whatever you want to call her she's my main.

    She's cute plus I relate with the whole family issues and issues with trying to prove yourself despite risking your own health it hits hard to home.

    Hell she's also the survivor I tend to let escape most frequently when I'm playing killer.

    I started using Meg because when i started this game, i thought everyone would have a special ability. I thought Meg would run a bit faster than others, i thought Feng could repair faster and Claudette could heal faster without the help of any perks. I didn't realize it's all the same and the description of survivors are only connected to their perks.

    But Meg grew on me, i bought the cutest outfit i could find amd now i look fabulous while getting camped <3

    I main Quintin Smith, because of our ironic use of medications and the only survivor who looks remotely like me. I like playing a character who looks like me, because I love seeing that depth of visual representation. It's too bad you can't create a survivor.

    Meg is bait. She's the new dwight, since the experienced meg players swapped to kate. I like her meghead look and sounds.

    And I play as him because I am a fellow argentinian  ;) we all grin like that

    Kate because no other female character looks as good, and the cosmetics they recently released for her just complete it.

    Though, I see many Kate mains in this thread. Wonder if the amount would still have been this big if they would have kept the voice she had in PTB :p

    i mainly play claudette for a couple of reasons:
    1: she is the only one i have ever leveled up on the survivor side
    2: she has selfcare (as a default perk)
    3: i am a stealth player (i try to not get involved into chases as much as possible)

    however, if i would have leveled, lets say, meg or dwight, id be using them.
    i just dont see the reason for leveling up a different survivor, as they are all just reskins...

    Meg because I like her cosmetics the most and so I can sport my rainbow hoodie while running around a pallet :)

    Like Tapp's perks so Tapp is my main. Also like his looks and his voice. It's really that simple.
    I play all the Survivors with the exception of the few I really don't like.

    A survivor after my own heart - nothing better than either the animal print, the blue flamingo sweater and yellow pants.

    Ace mainly as stated above he looks bloody Fab-u-lous - but I generally swap between Grey tennis Meg or Micheal Jackson Ripped Jeans Nea ...no reason really apart from I like to look good as I run away.
