Why does the grind feel worse then before?

But I admit the new prestige system doesnt help new players, who are the one that actually need help.

The grind is only reduced for getting perks. It's significantly worse for everything else. Like yea if you just want to get sprint burst for everyone then that's better. Getting items, addons, cosmetics, etc is worse due to BP bonuses being removed. The higher chance of rare addons in lower level bloodwebs also makes it more expensive to reach level 50. If you want to get all of the bloody cosmetics in the new chapter then you will need to play like 600 games. This is assuming you get around 40k per game which obviously isn't realistic.

The grind looks worse than before because you get less BPs than before since there is no Bonus to BBQ or WGLF anymore. So it feels worse. But once you bought the RE-DLC and you can play the characters with a real Build because you have unlocked almost all Perks on them, you will see that it is better than before.

It is worse, the BP gain is very very slow, I am so upset about it lol

The grind feels worse because it IS worse. The new system gives GREAT advantage to veteran players who had prestiged at least once most of the characters. For them it is indefinitely better.

On the other hand, new players have to prestige each character 3 times to make the most of the new system. On top of that, BBQ and WGLF were taken away so comparing old and new system New players:

1. have to prestige each character 3 times instead of leveling them up to lvl 40 (massive downgrade from the old system)
2. farm roughly 2x more for each prestige level due to bbq and wglf removal.

The grind is simply terrible right now and it greatly scares off any new player who realizes how much does he have to farm to play the build he wanted.

It's just hillarious and miserable at the same time.

New grind system reduces bp needed to prestige all characters. But if you play just few of them it actually makes it even more grindy for casuals :)

Before you unlocked perks at level 40, but they were in blood web.

Now you unlock all perks at tier 1 at level 50(prestige), in blood web is now tier 2 perk.

Yeah, as Survivor it only makes sense if you are a completionist. Since I am a completionist, I am happy on one side to have actual Perk Builds when leveling up the new Survivors, but on the other hand, to get everything I have to go to P9 with everyone...

for survs?

i did not used it even on killers as I was new to game back then

For survivor you had wglf

But honestly if you want to get tons of bp you played killer with bbq and used a bp bonus offering like a escape cake,survivor pudding etc

Heck that's what I did lol

It's much worse since you have to level up much more characters you wouldnt like to play. Additional 10 lvls is A LOT at lvl 40.

So in order to get some sort of old system we need to P1 all characters and STILL look for desired perks in the bloodweb.

It's even more ridiculous for survs who has to do the exact same scenario for every character. 10 Additional levels. Insane.

New grind is bad. It feels worse because in fact it is worse. Espacially with your avatar icon gone. Period.

Yeah, i am quite sad my bbq is basically dead and i have no longer my personal lucrative goal in game.

But you are disregarding the possibility with the new system to systematically target perks on your main. You level them until you have all perks available and then prestige the character whose perks you sepcifically want and boom, only those appear in the bloodweb. No more random waiting for dozens of bloodwebs to get a specific perk on your main (seen from the perspective of a fresh account). Then you level your main again until you have those 3 perks all on tier 3 and go for the next teachables. In comparison this should save you dozens of bloodwebs.

And to the 10 levels for prestige, you save on average 1,5 bloodwebs by getting all 3 tier one perks immediately which would be generally 90k with the old system at level 50.

And that couple with the fact that once you have everything you will never have to do it again but the new character and still get all perks on them is a heavy reduction.

It's just in the long and not the short run.

Your way of thinking is invalid.

If I had a main just as you say, I would greatly benefir from the old system, since all perks I would have already unlocked. If there's a new killer with new perks I would lvl him up to 40 then toss away, and focus back on my main.

Now I have to level up new killer to 50 and prestige him paying a fee wasting around ~500k-600k.

New system is bad without BBQ

it worse because it is it only good if you want perks easyly why make us lvl to 100?

Because once your needs are met, your wants become your needs.

yes and no but as we lvl we are forced to prestige not like old system where we can choose not to keep lvling up

They could easily fix most people's issues if they would just replace perk nodes as "Take your pick" nodes instead. Since they've essentially forced buying perks in nodes to have negative value and perks can be unable to show up in webs to affect its other nuances (like forcing the entity to eat more of the web faster,) they need to use those perk nodes as an opportunity to streamline the situation while giving players a feeling that they're actually remotely getting what they want from all the BP they're wasting. That's especially important with how slow gains feel right now, it makes being forced to waste large amounts of BP feel that much worse.

Enter the solution. Instead of perk nodes being the same as they've always been, make them nodes where the player can choose from a list. The best version would let you choose any addon, item, accessory, offering or perk, which could maybe have an offset of double the node's normal cost based on rarity. This would not only prevent players from losing the ability to manipulate the bloodweb when they have all the perks on said character, but it would allow them to get the addons/items/offerings/etc of their choice as they progress instead of needing to click 50+ webs before seeing maybe 1 or 2 of a consumable that might be required for a build.

Its the best way to make it feel less user hostile, especially since it would address a lot of players wildly varying degrees of value that came with the "grind reduction."

If I manage to get a prestige for 1.5-1.6 I consider it to be really good leveling. 1.5 requires you to trick entity extremely well throughout all 50 lvls.

BP gains from BBQ/WGLF were removed so you get less BP.

You repeatedly now go through the smaller bloodwebs that don't give you as much good stuff as the level 50.

You have to waste 20k BP every 50 levels because they decided to add an unnecessary toll. You have no choice to avoid it and stay level 50.
