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?

Yes. 100%.
Bhvr may or may not have known what they were unleashing on us with puppy form.

Yes. Sounds like we have some Dracula players who cannot resist belly rubs. I think he also gets boops? I have some survs try to boop the snoot too.
A couple of times i've had survs say to me: "CAN I PET THAT DAWG?" They seem so enthusiastic for some reason 🤔

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

Had another match. Bardic Inspiration Yun-Jin who insisted on obedience training whenever the dog bit someone. Kept getting in my way waggling 'no.'
I guess pubby is just that powerful. On the one hand, I love it, but on the other hand, this is going to murder my MMR. Shenanigans are my weakness.
…I do love that this community consistently decides the most terrifying creatures are adorable and their pet now. First the lamprey-jawed monster from the Upside Down became our dog, then the ultimate predator organism born via chestbursting became our cat, and now we're frantically petting the immortal vampiric lord of darkness and calling him the goodest boy. Newest Castlevania game be lookin' kinda different.

I've said it before and I said it again. I love killers (like Pig and now Dracula) who can bring the community together through positivity rather than tearing one another down.

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).

I think the secret ingridient is the nodding animation being so extreme, I mean have you ever seen a dog nod? Didn't know I wanted to ser a dog nod before lol

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