This game is awesome
Seriously, huge fan of this game. I wish I could perfectly recall and retell exactly how I got to where I am today. A friend of mine showed me the doctor when spark of madness released and at that point I had already heard of the game through different channels but hadn't really seen it in action if that makes sense… Either way I remember in that moment thinking "this game seems kind of cringe." Alas I decided to give it a try. I was drawn in by the allure of playing killer and being able to jumpscare people. At first I wasn't hooked (no pun intended) but I enjoyed playing it from time to time. I would come and go as the game received more and more updates. New killers would be added and I would get excited; come back, get the chapter - play somewhat consistently for a few weeks maybe months and then fall off the wagon again. That was until the hellraiser chapter, I'm no oldhead but I love classic horror so I knew I had to try ole pinny out. From that point on I could say with 100% certainty I was HOOKED. I even started streaming dbd thinking I was going to be the next otz or something. I started wanting to become more involved in the community. Popping into my survivors streams and saying hello, gg, and all that. Even met a few people I still call my friends that way. The streaming thing didn't last long, but I did p10 pinhead which is still my highest prestige. I know that is not very impressive, so what. But even then I decided to take a break after I got a real funny (sarcasm) bully squad on dead dawg one day. Fell into the loop (no pun intended) of coming and going once again. Then they added T H E C H U C C, ever since I haven't been able to stop. Leading up to the creation of my forum acc. I think it's sweet there is such good people here and this niche little community is super rad to be a part of. Despite everything BHVr continues to work on the game and sometimes it's DARN sometimes it's YAY but I'm just glad it IS. No asymm game comes close to DBD in my honest opinion.
TL:DR → I love the game despite it's issues. Shoutout everyone for continuing to play and be a part of the community after all these years. Shoutout to the devs for making the game we love and/or love to hate lol. Please keep it up. Here's to another 8 years and many more!

The game is great. 9 years don´t happen without a reason.
I hope they somehow manage to get the bugs down. The engine update really messed things up even further.
Also there must be something done for new players.

i agree the new player experience is terrible.

Even as an older player, since I played so inconsistently early on the experience of unlocking perks and such has been pretty rough for me. I haven't touched my survivors in so long and I shudder at the thought; playing survivor is miserable as is. These are things I hope BHVr has realized. I mean they get it shoved in their face all day every day on the forum so I'm hopeful… I might be delusional but I expect they have a big wave of big fixes lined up for fnaf. Of course it's not like they can just surprise us with a fixed game. It has to be tested so I don't know why they wouldn't just get it done and over with. But I'm no dev 🤷 all I can do is trust the process.

idk if this game is ready for the FNAF collab for this reason you stated, but I hope I’m wrong.

I agree, DbD is a very unique and wonderful game despite its glaring issues. I've been around since the Beta back when Trapper was called "Chuckles" so I've seen it change a lot over the years along with seeing a lot of people come and go. When I first started playing I was 14 and now I'm 23 on my way towards starting my career and saving up money to move to Australia to be with my gf so we can eventually get married and settle. It's been a huge part of my life and it's something I'm still very passionate about.
I love dbd. I very truly do. It stings to see it in states like it is right now. But I do genuinely hope it continues to be a part of mine and other people's lives.4 -
the reason why we complain when things are bad is because we really like the game and want it to be better. Even with the bugs I still play (for the time being) because the experience is so unique.

Thanks for writing this! A very welcome change from the typical but understandable doom and gloom posts. Thank you for this post and I hope you enjoy your future games! :)

Cross-generational as well, console-wise and people-wise. That almost never happens.

New players coming into DBD usually don't last very long… :/
