    Nic Cage was a fun novelty that should not be repeated. His perks are amusing but kinda suck.

    I think he was a good addition to the game. He did great with the voice acting, and his perks are very unique when compared to some of the others.

    And thanks to him I took a hell of a good screenshot. Because I managed to mori one on Springwood.

    Therefore I literally recreated Jesse's death from the movie, if Jesse was played by a different actor:

    I was sceptical when he was first announced but i'm glad i was wrong. Definitely the best standalone survivor in my opinion and the reason why Alan Wake is so disappointing for me in contrast.

    His design and voice acting is great, and the perks are the right mix between goofy fun and viable with a high skill ceiling on top.

    Now i wish they change Plot Twist to not reveal the aura to other survivors and make them unable to heal you and it'd be pretty much perfect.

    Hard disagree on the perk bit. His perks are unironically great.

    8 months is as much "almost 1 year" as 4 feet is "almost 6 feet".

    He is an absolute breath of fresh air and much needed uniqueness to this game. His perks are insanely silly, yet also pretty useful (I still remember the early days of using Plot Twist to duck a Wesker attack and him hurtling over a vault!), he did a tremendous job with his voice lines and it was just so much fun!

    I'd really like to see more like this. Chucky's Two Can Play perk is probably the closest we have gotten to that quality of fun perk. Basically, his inclusion was superb and even now he's just so enjoyable.

    I'm 50/50 on him.

    On one hand, i like his implementation overall along with his perks, he along with Alan Wake are my two mains.

    On the other hand, i don't like his inclusion because of the precedent it sets going forward, now people have an excuse to use and a justification when arguing for the inclusion of other real life people or internet personalities to be added like Youtube Content Creators, Vtubers or Fog Whispers.

    Personally i would have preferred if we had gotten Nic Cage as one of his movie characters instead, same extends to any other real life actors they add to the game.

    Reminds me that I haven't played him in awhile. Need to dust him off.

    Love him. I just wish I had the option to toggle his voice on when playing other Survivors or Killer.

    just hold the sprint button and other players cant heal you. i used the aura of my body sometimes to show other players where an exit gate is and slow endgame clapse

    Man time flies.

    Honestly the perks feel very fun and unique. I love running Dramaturgy and I know some people run Plot Twist. Nicholas Cage is a pretty common survivor so I'm assuming people like playing him.

    Yes, just yes I agree.

    It’s been 8 months?? Sheesh seems like he came out 3 months ago.

    The voice lines are fantastic. His perks are fun but not meta by any means, so I personally don't think he's worth buying. But hey, I love Cage IRL, so it's cool to see him be part of DBD.

    He is my main. Playing as Nicolas Cage himself complete with amazing voice lines and good perks makes the game so much more fun. Although I do wish they were allowed to make skins from his movies, I would love to play as Ghost Rider. I hope he gets more skins, especially ones without a beard and also a young Nicky Cage skin.

    Perfect

    Funny voice lines, funny perks, absurdly funny inclusion. I would love more ridiculous nonsense like him. Put in H. Jon Benjamin as both Sterling Archer and Bob Belcher! Machine Gun Kelly! Roman Reigns! Penn & Teller!

    I’m not joking, I would love more stuff like this and would happily pony up my America funbux for them.
