maps should automatically be darker

Your OP explicitly mentions making it harder for survivors. Why are you backtracking now? Could it be that you just wanted to make maps darker because you play in a certain way and wanted to make it easier for yourself?

Funny, you said something different in another thread (see link above).
Seriously, you're trying way too hard.

@adamn I am backing Orion up because you’re not listening to him. No matter what nerfing one side will be taken as a buff by the other side. If you read everything I said then you’d know I said “I don’t care if they make it darker or not”.
This is your thread, you should be reading what the people you’re discussing with are saying.

I always thought this should be the case. Yet Freddy has to deal with a blurry, static-y screen.

Maybe without her additional blink add ons. With them, even I who barely play her find her busted and too easy if I get a additional blink. Should just be on her Ultra Rare or something. Though we all know Ultra Rare isn't that rare.

*Notices the Claudette avatar*
I am wise to your motives!

I'm surprised they didn't add in a Claudette ninja outfit, as a joke. I mean at least we'd all be up front about it.

You do know that roughly 30 percent of the Male population is color blind, right? Making it darker would be serious torture to us. I already have to hunt by movement due to color blending in most maps.

Part of the reason why "killer mains" seem so vocal on the forums is because pretty much anyone who plays killer at least occasionally sees that they need a lot of work, especially at higher ranks. I legit survivor main specifically because its easier and less stressful, as well as due to visual impairments. Survivors tend to not be the vocal majority because *surprise* they're already in a better place, and tend to only speak up when their standing is lessened.
Meanwhile killers ask the important questions like "why does the trapper need to pick up to rearm his own traps" and "why does freddy's base dream transition take 10 years" and "why no shirtless myers still?"

sadly the devs have made it very apparent that they do not wish to appease said 30%. colorblind support has been a topic that has been begged for going for a very long time now.

This would be great!

They were removed due to it making it impossible for BHVR to control the lighting in the game, and certain survivors being impossible to see when it is that dark. I like the Twilight that we currently have on the darker maps, and wouldn’t be opposed to it being even brighter, or phosphorescent like in Avatar. I play both sides, but it is completely unfair to killers for a survivor to be able to hide in plain view.

You think playing survivor is stressful? 😂 Surely you can't be serious.

While the original suggestion was intended as a survivor buff, I'd really like to keep everything as it is, for everybody. In Freddy's old dreamworld (how it was until a couple of months ago) it was too dark for me and I really don't want that back.
Btw, I think the mist offerings should be removed as well. Especially the purple mist.

Sure , as long as they make claudette white.

I really wish the game was much darker for the survivors. I'd keep it the same for killers perhaps a bit brighter. This game needs more horror aspects like this imo.

I can sense the op as claudette main

It's very obvious that OP doesn't want the map to be darker in order for Killers to be able to sneak up on Survivors but for Survivors to be harder to spot.
@Orion made an excellent suggestion that would result in exactly what the OP wanted, darker maps for Survivors without letting Killers suffer for it. Denied, "bad suggestion".
Conclusion: OP is a biased Survivor main.

Beautiful. I love that <3

You are limiting your mindset to difficulty level of playing survivor. Some people really get immersed in the horror aspect of the game. My wife used to play and loved that part of it. She'd squeel every time a killer showed up. Unfortunately, it got to where 70% of her matches were with hardcore campers or tunnelers who were overly sweaty about the win. Took the horror aspect out of the game and made it no fun for her. So she quit playing.
0 -
Or she just reached 20 hours of playtime and therefore the scary atmosphere and the horror aspects are automatically gone, regardless of the Killers playstyles.

@PiiFree Not sure who you are referring to. The OP, or my wife? My wife was over 1k hours in the game. Closer to 2k.

If this game got darker I'd never find my way out of Gideon. That place is a ######### show for me as it is. Screw that.
