I didn't play him yet as I am on console but from what I have heard not a chance cool character rubbish perks though. I don't use flashlights simply because they are heard to use on console in my opinion so Champion of light is of no use to me.

Yeah I'm buying it, for the character. His perks are okay-ish but I just want to play as Alan Wake. Plus he is going to be in the Tome as well and there will inevitably be challenges that require playing as him. All the more reason to enjoy a character I like.

Nope.

The last thing this game needs is more mid perks to add to the pile of trash perks already in game.

No. I am not hyped by the character and his perks are either really bad or the flashlight one which is obviously going to get nerfed in a couple months.

So i think i'll pass on this chapter.

I might. Loved Control, and I've been diving into the Alan Wake universe recently. Plus, the voicework is pretty great!

Perks are duds, but they're survivor perks, it's to be expected.

Yes. I like the games. I like his voice lines and appearance. Enough reason for me and he will be required for tome challenges i think.

I will probably buy every chapter for as long as i am playing because i would like all characters, the game feels incomplete seeing the darkened portraits at the bottom of the list. Even if some characters are trash and i never play them. I find it easier to buy them than to not.

I will eventually on a sale. His perks are not that great and if anything to complete a collection same with Chucky to complete a collection. Wake's perks are not that great and you have to be good with a flashlight which I am not. I mean Nick at least had Dramatogry and that's a fun perk and useful.

I also don't want to invest money until there is serious improvements to the game. It's gone downhill extremely fast and no longer a fun experience.

No, his perks are so bad. If champion of light is good, I feel like the developers will nerf it anyway, since Killer-mains flip out at survivors having different meta perks than what survivors have had for 7 years.

I am personally a bit disappointed with the amount of licensed content we have been getting.

I know, weird complaint.

But I am not reaaaally into most of the franchises that we have in DBD (though I am at least familiar with almost all).

So for me, this is just a character that won't get many skins, can't be bought with shards and has mediocre perks. Not all that much to be excited about.

I would honestly have rather had an unlicensed character with cool and interesting perks and a neat design.

nope

I will be, considering I'm a fan of the series. Champion of Light is a good flashlight perk and Illumination may make a difference for newer players and Solo players for planning where to go (Illumination may be a sleeper like Lightweight is still) - not a useful addition for a swf though. Deadline is still terrible though.

The main thing is though it appears Alan Wake in DBD not only is canon to DBD, but even DBD is perhaps going to be canon in the world of Alan Wake, which is quite exciting if that's the case.

There is always the Adept achievement.

plus I think one achievement for general survivors that are tied lore- and or perk-wise to the new surv

Gonna do it just cause I have some spare cells.

i Will. Started playing Alan wake remastered. I like the voice acting and I know I’ll like at least two cosmetics. Champion of Light is a fun meme perk I plan to use after a few weeks when killers stop bring lightborn which will be inevitable

Survivors are going to be running flashlights a lot to use it, and killers will be bringing Lightborn a lot if they see flashlights in lobbies.

My suggestion is to go into the match with no item and instead use Residual Manifest to scavenge a flashlight from a chest, to catch them by surprise, assuming your teammates aren't running flashlights too. Flashbang might work too, if they haven't patched that out on live servers.

He's probably counter to replace my blendette as a main survivor. Alan is such a great and creative character lore-wise.

Absolutely not. Aside from the fact it looks more like Jake Gyllenhall or John Wick than it does Alan, I'm generally not a fan of the male character frames (only exception David) & his grunts of pain already irritated me on the PTB, lol. Can't see myself maining him even for a day.

Yes eventually, whenever I come back to DBD.

Aside from playing with friends I am mostly burnt out and only play to do the next level of tome challenges and achievements. So I am sure I will buy him eventually to get his adept and prestige him to 3.

Champion of Light seems fun to mess around with but his other two perks are sad.

Me too, but I'm broke... so no.

I'm supporting everything behavior release. I'm dbd stand

No, for several reason.

I didn't play his games.

He is not appealing aestetically imo.

His perks are mid at best.

He is a licensed character (not buyable with iridiscents).
