The Third Year Anniversary stream was the beginning of the end. DbD stopped being a passion project and became a piggy bank for the devs.
20 to 40 dollar base game, 5 to 10 dollar dlcs, 10 dollar cosmetics, and now they want you to pay them to grind via the Rift. BHVR is rolling in money. They stopped being the cool devs in touch with their base via weekly streams and are becoming a mini EA/Activision.
Nearly zero communication anymore and ignoring MAJOR bugs like the network connection and NAT type errors on Xbox that have been ongoing for over a month in favor of new microtransactions.
About the latest events

No summer event and Halloween event delayed. Which does not even include new targets for killers and survivors, just new hooks and generators. Hooray. This can not even be called an event. And you screwed up. Shame. Oh yes, I forgot about the event on the 3rd anniversary. Add balls to the generators. Yeeeees!!!! This is what the game needs. Awesome year for events. Oh yes, the community manager just says this:
It seems to me, or you simply do not care at all. You enter the easiest money making - battle pass. But do not introduce any new content. Shame. I won’t even touch on the topic of servers, because you screwed up with them.

You do know that the new stuff is made by the art team. Thats like saying ill hire an electrician to replace my car muffler.. see doesnt make sense.

Oh my god, do you understand what a person is talking about? It's not that you can pay/not pay. And the fact that the developers do not add anything new, they only suck out money and add a battle pass. Ah, yes, to get 2 full sets for Halloween for free, you will need to grind in the Rift, because there is serum. And what was last year? Flowers. And now you need to grind battle pass.

Someone forgot about Tomes.
You know free lore content for the game

I'm glad for the challenges it takes ages to get every teachable and I'll take any bloodpoints

Instead of playing, should I read the lore? You won’t delay people in the game if you add notes and this lore, if the gameplay is the same.

You are aware that they've locked ARchive progress behind time-gates, right? The only reason they've done that is so people cannot unlock the entire Archive (and therefore the Tomes) in short succession. Unlocking the entirety of the Archives early would save you frustration when it comes to Rift progression and that's a net loss for the developers, who're banking on you giving in and buying tiers for AC.

You just said they dont introduce new content, i show you new content.

Game content, I say again. Gameplay. Why do I need notes if the gameplay is the same?

nothing will change the gameplay lmao unless you expect a full rework of the game mechanics

Last year there were even flowers. This is at least something new in the gameplay. Do you see some kind of rework here? In the past Halloween event? No. What is the problem?

Survivors would most likely kill themselfes when they got enough. Do you want that again?
The only thing that was pretty neat were the lanterns
