This won't save you from players that been owning LF for years. Your still getting camped by one after he gets removed :P.

But yes, this will suck thou :/.

Thanks for the heads up, just bought the chapter. Been wanting to play as Bubba, but haven't gotten around to it.

This is exactly what I was thinking. There's Gigabytes of code behind this game, the slightest bug/overlook isn't an immediate indicator of them losing the license.

", only the dlc's that were unavailable on other platforms had those unlicensed descriptions"

Explain halloween having alternative names and icons.

"additonaly, the leatherface dlc is the only dlc that is not affected by the discount"

Stranger Things went on discount all the time, and had a 50% off everything sale for ~3 months before it's removal. Leatherface is the cheapest dlc, coming in at 5€, and I don't think I've ever seen it go on discount (and I'm fairly certain that the licence would've been renewed within the previous 5+ years). I don't think that's indicative of anything.

Again, I will eat my words if I'm wrong, but as of right now I don't see any use in panicking and raising the alarm bells. The code is held together by twigs and mud, so it's more likely to just be a bug than it is a confirmation of licence withdrawal.

Get the ketchup friend:

Yes that never made sense to me. I understand that the copyright owners think people will want to play the best game out there with Demogorgon/Leatherface so they take the license away from DBD. But what does it matter what the perks are still called or look like when the character is still available to people who bought them? Franklin's Demise is a terribly named perk anyway as like many others, can be hard to remember as the name doesn't even hint at its purpse but the Stranger Things perk names seemed barely related to the license.

I still haven't got used to the new Stranger Things perk names. Prediction: Franklin's Demise will be renamed Soapy Hands.

I stand corrected. I genuinely don't remember a time when it's been on sale, but it was one of the first DLC I ever bought (alongside ANOES and Of Flesh And Mud) so that could entirely be why. Thank you.

But again, I don't think it not being on sale this time means anything, when Stranger Things went on sale loads and still left us. Correlation =/= Causation.

#### forgot about that

Do you really think basement camping is going to end if Bubba leaves? it will only stop being sold if this rumor is true, but its camping problems depend on the Nerf of the devs, because there will still be a lot of people playing with it for a long time

So this is what bhvr meant by timed licensed content huh? (I kid, I kid). But I do worry about the future of licensed content if this keeps happening. Thankfully bhvr seems to have good relations with capcom so no fear of resident evil getting yoinked (that and they already tried their hand at an asymmetrical re game), but I feel it's only a matter of time before SOMEONE tries to do a Halloween asymm game to follow the trend. When that happens, goodbye to Myers and Laurie.

It sucks since Bubba is one of my favorite icons and found playing him fun.

A part of me hopes that the rumored return of stranger's things returning in December was true and that they delayed it to soften the blow of Bubba being removed, but it's pretty unlikely that'll happen and just a conspiracy theory I have.

Also weird some survivor mains are celebrating this. Sure it means less facecamping bubbas, but now frankin and BBQ will be free perks that will increase in usage.

Demo was always hated.

One of the worst killer in the game to play, so weak

Y'all are forgetting it's the weekend. These things have nasty habit of showing up when BHVR is not in office.

All these companies try to make their own games because they think it is kinda easy.

You can say what you want - but the fact that DbD still stands after 6 years is quite a remarkable achievement.

And what i have seen from the Leatherface game looks nice, but i don´t see the longtime potential of it. Have to see if they do better that Evil Dead.

On one of the surveys asking about time limited content they did mention time limited DLC. I could totally see them making his perks general perks and then vaulting Leatherface, having him available randomly during the like anniversary event or something. His sales probably aren't great any more (especially after BBQ nerf) so making him available for limited time every so often would be way to boost sales and probably lessen the license fee at the same time. He's a single character DLC and as a killer it's easier to make him into time limited DLC than a survivor that's just a skin.

Cote said 2 months ago in an interview that the new games didn't have a "negative impact on their conversations" with the license holders so I'm less inclined to blame the TCM game that's coming out. I'd put the blame on the license holder and BHVR not able to agree on renewal due to license holder thinking its worth a higher amount (Leatherface is iconic) and BHVR thinking it's worth lower amount (sales not good anymore).

*side note I do not agree with fomo stuff like this, this is just something I wouldn't be surprised to see happen.*

While Im not saying Leatherface is going away the responses Cote gave were very ambigous, first he says the games havent affected negatively the liberty they had (which could mean they had 0 liberty and the games didnt make it any harder because it was impossible) and then he says they could release more cosmetics for Ash, excluding Leatherface.

Honestly I believe people should just wait and see what happens, the whole perk renaming in PTB is indeed weird but doesnt mean much, they could have done it months ago because they tought they were losing the license, then the licensers told them Leatherface could be in DBD and the code got implemented by mistake.
