What do you think about new chapter + Will you be buying day 1?

No, I won’t be buying the new chapter. I have zero interest in it. It’s just way too silly for me to like it. I do hope those who are interested will enjoy it though. Hopefully those buffs will make him a lot more fun to play as. He was clunky on the PTB.

it’s an interesting perk, lol. I had some fun using that perk on the PTB, haha. Not going to buy the chapter for that perk but it’s definitely cool.

as a killer main no . Vecnas perks are god awfull and his playstyle is not for me . That being said i am excited for the new map and potential sales happening soon . Also 2v8 right around the corner 🥳

I’m buying Vecna day one cause I love dnd but I hope they nerf his special items. Like teleporting is insane and you can’t stop it. I’d say have it charge for a few seconds before it teleports but I don’t really care that much cause it’s Vecna and he’s cool

Not right away no.

Vecna is chill and all but the cooldowns weren’t lowered enough. Or at the least tweaked so that the weaker spells have separate cooldowns based on strength. I’ll wait to preview it with whatever streamer decides to play him and in the meantime continue playing Unknown/Singularity.

I always buy DLCs day 1. Have to have all tier 3 perks on my Survivors and Killers.

What killers have had that happen to them in the past? Really curious because I can't think of any, and I doubt Vecna will have this happen to him as well.

Chucky, Alien, Unknown.

All got conveniently ''fixed'' after a while and then ''rebalanced'' for fun experience. In reality they all became nerfed and now require specific set of addons in order to function at least on decent level.

Vecna is no different. If people begin to ''struggle'' against him for some reason this killer will get nerfed once again to the point where his pick rate will be very low. It's their marketing strategy that they have been following for few chapters already.

Unknown probably didn't but Alien did. This new Chucky is also nerfed with scamper changes. These killers also require specific set of addons most of the time.

They are map dependent killers who are between B and C tier, pretty much a typical pub-stomper stars who can perform only against poorly organized survivors and beginner / chill soloQ players.

I see Vecna as a candy-wrapped M1 killer who at moment will dominate inexperienced players but will struggle massively against more competent ones, let alone swfs. He will receive ''hotfixes'' within a standard 1 - 2 months period which will put him into a so-called ''good'' spot. In reality it will be another case where killer purchased on release plays and feels absolutely different than what it does after some time.

Not touching it. This update has been miserable so far, and these characters look utterly ridiculous. It's a circus.

I thought the Unknown looked ridiculous. Each to there own I suppose.

I won't be buying it. And will probably avoid the game for a while (at least playing survivor) because I don't want to go against the new killer every single match. I know a lot of people love new content, but I'm the opposite - every new chapter pushes me a little closer to quitting for good. I'm a pretty casual player, so the game becomes more and more overwhelming for me with the release of every chapter, especially with killers that have complicated powers to learn how to use/counter.

I will only buy if there is an attractive perk, if it is only for the killer himself, I will wait and see as it will be nerfed or bugged in a few weeks to a month anyway. This is especially true after the 2022 killer.

Yes of course. I’ve been so excited for it, especially the map. New chapters always feel like Christmas

I just got the new survivor with auric cells for this reason, put a deposit down in the meme-stonks and am now a billionaire! Slam some tunes after completing super fast basement stuf….glorious….

killer comes for you?
slam some tunes.

people on gens?
slam some tunes.

you get the drift ;)

dont know yet about vecna though

I was on the fence for awhile, but ultimately decided not to.

I'm not into playing killer and the perks are just so bad I can't even use them, so there's no reason to. I'm hoping, in the future, this company will focus on developing products (perks) with practical value instead of just relying on memes and brand names.

Still remaining hopeful they change and/or adjust the perks, particularly the survivor perks.

A killer made fairer by being made weaker. Now how else is this called?

Oh yes, Chucky was also made ''fairer''.

Alien can be played at a high-level.

New Chucky, jury is out on that one, since he just released today.

Unknown is fine.

Vecna is brand-new, give it some time.

Killers being made more fair is not some massive offense to you. The Devs are not out to get you, nor are they out to get other Killer players.

You mean to tell me, in a live service game, you expect things to never change?

I would by the dlc , but you can't on xbox

No morals are involved here.

I simply state that it is continuous coincidence that recent releases receive changes that if they were introduced prior to the release would likely make many people reconsider purchasing the content. I don't see this practice going anywhere yet. It's only a matter of time before ''something broken'' will be found in Vecna and it will get ''corrected'' in quick manner. Few such corrections and Vecna on release will feel like different killer than Vecna after few months.

There's, what, 36 Killers now?

Even if every Killer had an even pickrate, that'd be like under 3% per Killer.

First of all if content is sold in overpowered and unfair state ( just like recent series of chapters seem to be ) then it's already a red flag. This is akin to buying a car that seem to be good and functional on the moment of the purchase ( as seller states it is, right? ) but then suddenly you receive a notification from a seller that certain aspects of your car that you've found attractive, interesting or convenient shouldn't be inside your car in the first place so you must now part with them.

Is buyer responsible for buying something he or she likes at the moment of the purchase? A chapter and it's content presented upon sale should retain their aspects unless they are broken or not functioning at all. With this game, stuff gets sold in one shape ( be it overpowered or cool / fun ) and then gets changed numerous times, often to a state that likely wouldn't even be bough by initial buyer in the first place.

As for this chapter - even with the low regional price that it currently does have for me, I won't purchase it. I just heard that something appeared to be ''unintended'' and will be fixed asap and that's pretty much a Day 1. This is how it usually begins, but it always ends with killer being not fun to play as.
