Taking A Break - Cheers All.
@Laluzi @Pulsar @OneGoodBoyDemo and all the rest of you fantastic folks - because I'm in a pretty frustrated headspace right now (mostly the ridiculous Eruption nerf and the absolutely incredible gloating from survivor mains on this forum...like, yeah, I get it that you didn't like Eruption but all the 'lol cry moar stay mad so happy you're suffering killer mains' stuff is getting under my skin) and I probably should instead go and be productive for a while before I completely lose my cool.
Sometimes...this game man.
Hold down the fort for me. Will probably be back in a few months.
Ja ne!

I'll miss having you around! But I totally understand it; I was taking a hiatus myself and only poked my head back out because I was excited about the solo queue information buffs.
We're doomed, as Dead By Daylight fans, to exist in an endless love-hate relationship with this game and its occasionally extremely questionable balance decisions. Here's hoping a break will restore the first part of that flame and diminish the second. Or that they'll keep up their recent streak of positive changes and less of the ones where they take a sledgehammer to a problem instead of a screwdriver. I think we're overall on a good trajectory since summer last year; there's just been missteps along the way, including a couple that caused me to dip out for awhile.

Hey, breaks are good. Everything in excessive dosages is bound to become stale eventually.
Enjoy life, get back stronger and happier.

Making a pause is healthy and, given the current state of the game, smart. You can however take a break and still come to the forums from time to time (if only to remember why you are taking a break).
If I didn't check the forums, I wouldn't have known Eruption was effectively dead (even stronger tunneling need, just what the doctor ordered).
There are many good games out there. A fresh Valheim run with a friend? An Icarus persistent game with another? Playing a young magician in some obscure game that just got out?
I'm guessing the right time to come back will be when (if) the killers are boosted a bit to offset the QoL (needed, granted, but helping SWFs as much as solos) AND there is more than one efficient way to win a match as killer. Hopefully it will not take several months.
My nephew called her Sisu:
I could spend my whole day just holding her and petting her. The frustration is melting. A game? What game?
Who's a good girl? <3

Personally i would be more pissed off regarding dead hard left unchanged than the eruption's demise (both perks have a similar problem about being too much effective: the only difference was that Eruption was worthless aganist SWF and overkill for solos while dead hard it's overkill when used by experienced people but weak when used by average survivors and since i'm personally interested to give a bad time only for the 1st ones, you can guess why Eruption wasn't even considered in the slightest in my builds by myself).
Anyway, a break from this game is the BEST thing that you can do, especially when upset. I wish you good luck for your projects👍️

I'm not sure what you saw because most of the people seem mad about the nerf to me. I just wanted inc gone tbh. And I am not gloating.
Guess everyone sees what they want to including me.
Also not sure why you banned yourself or whatever happened. When I am tired of forums I just don't visit as often or at all. Seems like an overkill.
Whatevs. Take care.

Eruption Nerf isn't ridiculous, have a nice break. You deserve it.

bye, can i have a vial of your tears?

Kinda funny how similar the eruption outcry is to the old DH nerf. People got their crutch removed so they come here to the forums to throw a fit like a little kid. Eruption was just as broken as old DH with no counterplay and the game will be better off without it

Huh? He auto-banned himself?

Now they truly are lost.

I think you are overreacting over a perk, you will find another playstyle when the changes go live, but if you really want a break for a perk change you should think about how much important it became for you, you reached the point to quit the game cuz of it, very sad stuff my boy.
See you next week btw

New chapter coming, I highly doubt you'll stop playing for months.

Welp now he’s really gone

I may be new on these forums, but I started playing around … autumn 2018? 2019? Months before the ruin nerf. I got so obsessed and frustrated with this game back then. Wasn’t good for me.
I took like a 2 year break. Found fun in plenty of other games.
Now I’m back playing as of December 2022 with a better perspective, less obsessed/frustrated/emotional and enjoy playing killer without being bothered anymore to the point of getting so angry.
When I get a few wins as killer I take a break, quit while I’m ahead, then play survivor or just do something else.
When I lose alls killer it still sucks but I’m not like planet Aldereen that’s been destroyed by the Death Star.
You just have to learn how to not let this game or anything in life get to you.

Well right now is a good time to play survivor with all the solo buffs and stuff. But when they buff killers to get back to the 60% kill rate there will be many playing killer again.
