Finisher Mori tweak to go against 4k slug

I reckon the slugging for 4k will tone down after a while, I think the uptick in it is primarily cause its new... I also actually like being Mori'd. I see it as a badge of honour to be the one that gets to have the cinematic finish.

However other people don't like it, and there will still be SOME uptick in 4k slugging, usually on a new killer release and new mori release...

So a thought I had while eating lunch today... What if the Finisher Mori was made an actual incentive to gamble the 4k and play for hatch?

Have Finisher Mori only unlock if and only if at the point the 3rd survivor dies, the last survivor is not in the dying state.

This would mean: -

  • Mori's are a little more rare, so retain a little bit of that "being special" aura.
  • Player's literally can't complain about being Mori'd, cause they were given a fair shot at escape.
  • We can even look at giving Finisher Mori a bonkers BP boost to further incentivise it.
  • Reduces the slug for the 4k salt, on the grounds there is a reasonable chance the killer is doing a challenge, seeking grades, or something else they need to secure the game for.

    This would be very nice, a while back I even proposed this exact thing in another thread XD.

    There's also the fact that it's likely BHVR is looking to sell Mori animations in the future despite the Finisher Mori being rejected in the past (there is no positive from a gameplay and health standpoint that can come from the Finisher Mori system as it is now, our suggestion could mend this) and it would make the issue skyrocket.

    The Finisher Mori system enhances the problem and multiple threads on multiple media platforms are already speaking about it, and making the system healthy would greatly help, especially with the likelyhood of Mori DLC.

    I honestly wouldn't mind the Finisher Mori at all if it was an incentive to not slug for the 4k instead of rewarding players for doing it, it would even give "gigachad" players (8 hooks before any kills playstyle) a reward for doing so.

    Ah crud, my bad man, didn't mean to steal xD

    Attempt 2 at getting traction? 😁

    It's not stealing if you didn't know, and even if you did I would be more than glad if the idea got traction in any way XD.

    Let's hope you succeed where I failed XD.

    100% support this change. Slugging for 4k is probably the most common toxic behavior in DBD after teabagging. And this would incentivise nonabusive playstyles.

    I can even imagine survivors choosing to not escape to instead see the Mori 😁😁😁

    Haha! I hate the finisher mori system and feel it's ruined much of the survivor experience for me, but there are definitely people who would do that!

    I don't mind the mori. What I mind is the slugging. I like the idea of only triggering the ability to mori if the last survivor is not in the dying state.

    It's hilarious seeing this thread then seeing a bunch of other threads show up complaining about Mori and excessive slugging mere days later XD
