Do survivors meme on Dracula the same way they meme at Pig?

Or do I just look especially soft and cuddly?

I've been prestiging Dracula today and I keep encountering survivors who just do not run from my initial approach. Three separate games out of nine, one or two survivors at the first gen I checked crouched and beckoned, even after I hit them. One of those survivors had a pebble and wanted to play fetch. A fourth game started out normal, but then a Kate ran up to me while I was carrying a survivor and started playing Bardic Inspiration, and the whole thing ended in scritches yet again.

And this is definitely the most tomfoolery I've gotten since I started playing this chapter, but it's not the first time I've had survivors do this. Had another game go like this last night, and they were even doing it back when I adepted him in, back near release.

Am I just having a very surreal day, or do survivors try to pet the dog the same way they want to boop the snoot? Is this a thing?

    I've been given a lot of pets over the last couple weeks, to the point I'm beginning to wonder if this is the true power of Wolf form. It's nice to have a newer killer people aren't facing as seriously, it and the new iri addon have given me a lot of fun games :3

    Who doesn't want to pet the doggo?!

    In seriousness it'll prolly pass in time. Right now Dracula is new so the dog pets will be common. Once he settles I think it'll be about the same as Pig, maybe a little more.

    Ghostface is also a ton of fun to meme with. :D

    I find this as any Killer before I stsrted my break. I wouldn't attribute it to Dracula. Survivors are miserable lately and will do virtually anything to have a Killer go easy on them. I'm ashamed to admit I noticed that I started doing similar things, especially after the 1st Survivors gives up.

    Oh, one hundred percent. Main reason I love playing Ghostface so much. Pig too, but she makes me scream internally whenever I get a sweet summer child who doesn't know they need to take the trap off. The charades I've played trying to rescue newbies from my own devices…

    But there's something magical when players momentarily set aside the rules of internet tag to acknowledge something silly or weird together, or decide to take a risk reaching across the aisle to try something fun. Reminds that we're not survivors or killers, we're all just horror lovers playing a video game together in the end.

    I love petting the dog. It's so cute.

    Dracula's mori is pretty cool, too. My friend and I have played the lute during a few, including him playing while I got mori'd. Good times.

    3 words: Pat the bat. We now have 4 killers to pat: Demodoggo, Miss Piggy, Xenokitty and Batula (this nickname is a work in progress).

    Drac's like Ghostie, Demo, and Pig in that yes… he gets pets and snoot boops as pubby form. :)

    I love wholesome interactions.
