Selling us tools of torment is a scam
This chapter is a travesty of predator and also the killer has trickster's face, it's been proven lmao. they use old assets for this chapter.
Simply do not sell this and work more on the anniversary chapter, we'll wait.

yeah i can't really defend this one
wtf is bhvr thinking? at least bake the concept a little more and tweak her visually
22 -
I agree with you, they should let it cook more in the oven and release it later, they should focus now on the anniversary chapter.
16 -
To be fair, it's the PTB so things could change and I really hope they do. This killer needs a lot of help.
12 -
They won't change the mori, the design, the perks and the power in 3 weeks
26 -
That's true, there's not enough time to do all that. I'm trying to stay optimistic about this, but honestly it's really hard to now.
21 -
Lol yeah, they not going to do that XD If you don't want this killer then don't buy it and just wait for the anniversary chapter.

Sorry for ruining your mood :( but knoqing bhvr, it will take a WHILE before they fix her, and since the twins rework has been taking over a year, I expect the same for her.
4 -
how about not going "don't buy if you don't like it" and go "they offer us trash how dare they?" we have the right to complain about it without getting it.
8 -
And people that like the chapter are allowed to want it without being told they shouldn't be allowed to buy it.
1 -
not saying they cannot, simply saying for what they are giving us they don't deserve white knights
6 -
Yeah, it won't happen because they have a schedule to keep, but my first thought was that they should take it back to the drawing board after PTB like the finisher mori thing.
It really needs more than can be done in three weeks.
EDIT: also, it's not a scam, we see what it is, and don't have to buy it. There's not a bait and switch here or anything.
1 -
So don't buy it. Easiest way to make them look at what they may have done wrong is poor sales.
11 -
What part of "do not sell" this did I misunderstand in your original post? The chapter isn't for you and that's okay plenty of other people see the potential do like it.

I said do not sell this,. but those that like this chapter have the right to
1 -
Fair enough if you don’t want to buy it but it’s not a scam when you still get 1 killer, 2 survivors and 9 perks. I mean Freddy was rushed out the door alongside Quentin with 6 trash perks and that was still sold well
Or if you want an original chapter Binding of Kin basically broke DBD on launch and twins are still unplayable on lower end PC’s and consoles so if anything they’re worse

We don't know how this or the new maps will work on Consoles.
Red Forest worries me greatly.
6 -
It's not a scam if you know exactly what it is.
7 -
Red Forest is my favourite realm and I play on consoles (Switch and PS5, mostly the former), why does it worry you?

People are just saying stuff to say stuff right now.

The performance looks like it will be pretty bad, especially considering Haddonfield.

Because I don't think it's trash and your complaining isn't going to make them change their business model. I am being realistic here and thinking from a dev pov. They not going to scarp the work they have done just bc you and others want them to throw away the chapter. They will release the chapter like they always have and it'll either completely flop or it won't. If you want to voice your complaints that's fine but demanding them to throw away work or calling it a scam just bc you don't like it isn't going to happen isn't going to change anything. Btw how is it a scam when no one is forcing or making you buy it? You have that choice you know. So complain all you want but it will go on deaf ears. A healthier way to go about this is just don't buy the chapter and move on with your life. But hey you won't listen to me, its the internet, a place for ppl like you to yell into the void.... Have a blessed day

I've been playing her some to get more of a feel for her. Every now and then I would grab someone out of a locker see her little hand animation. Then I go back to the regular servers and do some games. I had a quest for spirit play her and during the match I grab some people out of lockers. And then my brain connects the dots. I think it's the same animation with swapped hands.
Anyways this killer has a neat looking power, underwhelming in every aspect out of the 3gen, perks that will rarely see use. And if the face really is reused... that's fine, I like the tricksters face. Wish she would wear the rest of her mask atleast.
1 -
No we don't. We really don't. It's trash like everyone says. Hot garbage.
9 -
Well combining multiple things and selling it is not a scam, technically.
0 -
I'm 100% not gonna even get this chapter, even with shards, I'd rather save up for a cool skin then buy a chapter I have no interest in.
5 -
The power is truly what makes up the Killer.
Trapper, Wraith, Billy. They could all fit each others powers if it were shuffled around.
They need to seriously tweak Merchant's power to be fun and THRILLING for both sides.

Why on earth did you think I was talking to you?
0 -
"plenty of other people see the potential" I believe the rest of human kind falls within the catagory of "other people" lol
1 -
Except plenty of people like the chapter. This is just willful ignorance on your part.
3 -
by plenty you mean 1 in every 20 players?
2 -
I mean sure but with a playerbase as large as DBD's that's still thousands of people.
4 -
It's completely normal that assets are going to be reused and it's not like she looks completely like Trickster. The chapter is really bad but they have been working on it for quite some time, so it's not to be expected that they will scrap the chapter. We should just hope that BHVR will make as many changes as possible before it goes live.
2 -
kinda just sounds like your mad cause your in the extreme minority thinking this is some great chapter, when everyone else is telling you otherwise, but its ok stay in fairy tale land :D
6 -
Even 4 thousand people are going to be an underwhelming majority. And honestly it doesn't feel like many like this chapter (I don't like it either). The backlash on this chapter is incredibly large. Yes sometimes I see people saying that they actually like the concept of the new chapter but if you look at most content creators, most comments most Reddit posts and most forum posts you don't see many people saying they like it. This chapter is going to be review bombed once it's live and that's kinda sad if you watched the behind the scenes video where the devs look clearly very happy and excited about this chapter.
6 -
is there really a video of them saying there happy about this chapter? If so can you link us, would like to watch it, the behind the scenes stuff?
3 -
Thousands out of 1 million is nothing, I know you are optimistic about those who enjoy the chapter but they are far too little.
2 -
Here it is :)

I mean and I've said this before I'm annoyed because those of us that like trap killers finally got a new trap killer to play with for the first time in 7 years and and it's been nonstop bitching from the community ever since. I understand most people don't like Hag either she has the 2nd lowest pick rate in the game and Trapper's pick rate is only high because he's free and the face of the game otherwise they would be lower as well but the problem comes from we get our 3rd trap killer ever and if the community had their way the chapter just wouldn't come out and I just wish the community was more mature and just accepted the chapter isn't for them.
Nobody is making you play this killer. If you wanna play a good chase killer you have Blight, Wesker, Nurse, Oni, Sprit, Executioner, Bubba, Etc. If trap players wanna play a good killer they have Hag and that's it so excuse me if I don't really care about everyone crying that for once we didn't get yet another chase killer and those of us that enjoy alternative playstyles were catered to for the first time in 7 years.

Her design looks like it was only made for people to thirst over, which I'm not 100% against, but I think you can do that and still be a bit more creative
her mori just makes no sense, I don't really understand what the drone is doing when it scans you, does it burn you? does it expose you to radiation? and then she just freddy kreugers you
her power is the most half baked part about this entire thing, as 1 person stated, knowing where you are means nothing when you can't do anything about it as an m1 killer, there either needs to be something more that the drone does, or a chase power added
her lore.... uhhh it's kinda strange
her perks, nothing really game-changing, and one of them I've heard people complain that it promotes tunneling (game afoot) they should release the bots, and the new maps, but release the killer when it's fully cooked, I'm talking a nice 165 degrees, cause rn it's in the danger zone

you clearly don't understand why people are even mad in the first place. People have been waiting for new content since wesker thats a really long time ago to wait for a game to have good content to keep them entertained, and busy. Knight sucked, and now we have this chapter which also sucks. That means we have to wait at least another 3 months for new content. Thats why people are mad. BHVR should have realized this from the backlash they got from knight, and yet release another similar killer that the majority of the community has said that didn't like or want. Don't tell people to just accept it like its nothing. As everyone else has said this will be the lowest selling chapter ever in dbd history, and we yet again have to wait for better content to be released. People have a right to be mad, and protest this chapter specially after the terrible knight released. You have to understand people are starving for good decent content in DBD, and we haven't had that since wesker.

LOL thanks for the link XD
1 -
That’s a fair worry to have and sadly since we don’t have a ptb there we’ll have to wait and see
0 -
Oof. As far as the usual 'behind the scenes' marketing fare goes, this seems bland and hastily thrown together. :/
3 -
This is very true. I play ff14 and do you know how many times they reuse assets? All the time! You can clearly see boss skeletons being reused all the time in raids. It's just cost-effective to use something you already made as the base for something new instead of creating all new assets.
0 -
I can understand that but some of y'all should also understand that no amount of protesting isn't going to stop them from releasing this chapter in 3 weeks. Even if they did throw this chapter out like some are calling for the outcome will still be the same. You still have to wait 3 months for another chapter and have no content to play. At least if they release this chapter with buffs to the killer that gives some of the community content to play with rather than denying everyone the chapter. At the end of the day, you have the right to be mad and upset but do realize that just because you are mad doesn't mean BHVR is going not release this chapter and there are people who do like this killer and just hoping they will give her some buff. I know personally I rather see this chapter released and they work on buffing her rather than not seeing it release at all and having to wait another 3 months with nothing.

Sad to hear you guys dont like it at all, I was having a blast playing her last night on the PTB.
1 -
doing 3-4 gens only is fun to you? such a boring play style and I can't imagine how much fun the survivors are having, and remember ptb has no MM either so it doesn't help the fact you can rekt anyone
1 -
I don't think you know what a scam is...
0 -
These characters are going to be technically "free" anyway due to this being an OG chapter. Just save up Iri Shards until you can get all of them. I'm not wasting a penny on it, that's for sure. It'll be nice to have them give us more for less for once. Fine with me.

i'm not either, but still offering this to unacceptable
