    Survivor gameplay is fun and my goal to p3 50 every survivor and get my favorite build all in T3.

    To be as toxic as I can be by killing survivors via 3 hooks each if possible and doing gens. And the most toxic safe unhook.

    For the fan service and overall badassery of having so many iconic charaters in one game. Its a shame that the only really iconic survivor is Ash since the scream queen is unrecognizable....i guess there's Bill. Steve and Nancy are cool

    Anyway the killer selection is AMAZING and everyone but Freddy looks spot on but, since you can never have 2 killers out at once, you never get to have the amazing interactions that could be possible. Imagine running away from Leatherface (who's been buffed and is scary because this is my fantasy) only to be cut off by Micheal Myers. Or not being able to get your reverse beartrap off because you're in Freddy's nightmare. Or seeing Myers AND ghostface is the bushes. Trapper and Pig, Bubba and Billy, Myers and Ghostface, Demogorgon and Freddy, Spirit and Nurse....ok maybe not that last one but there are so many fun possibilities with duos for BOTH sides of the game


    ######### is just depressing to talk about because it may never happen lol

    This game is unlike any other I have ever played before, in a good way, and I've been gaming most of my life which is now approaching 30 years lol..


    I didn't necessarily like it at first, I thought it was too difficult to learn, the learning curve was quite extreme, I wasn't naturally good at it like I am most other games, and the BP Farming for teachable perks in order to have fun was a total boring grind..

    I never thought after all the negatives I stated above, and after all 4 of my RL Friends who I have convinced to buy this game, NONE of them continued playing passed like Rank 19 except for me lol... I am the only one that is still somehow completely addicted..

    I nearly stopped every single other game I was playing before I picked up DBD... in order to play more DBD lol, but I think a big part of it has to do with constantly feeling like I'm trying to improve myself.. most games after a certain point I feel like I'm "the best that I will be" and hit my ceiling, but in DBD I'm still SO bad that I KNOW I can improve if I keep playing.. and that feeling just never goes away lol

    DBD is a HARD game in my opinion, and so different from others that you can't fall back on old skills as they say. I don't think everyone has the heart for DBD, that's why only 1/5 purchased actually kept playing in my scenario, but for those who let themselves get into it, it's quite a long challenge to over come.

    Im normally a big rpg player. Used to really love mmo's too. At some point I fell out of playing shooters because to me it really became boring. And fighting games were challenging but I felt rewarded for my time invested learning moves and frames etc.

    Dead by Daylight fills a spot that not many games can for me these days. I strictly play killer. Only touched survivor 1 time around release and was not at all my thing. Only in the Entitys realm can i immerse myself somewhat and have a different expirience Win or Lose. Every survivor plays differently even if some prefer meta perks. Its the way an individual uses these which makes a trial unique. And as a killer i dont always massacre. Sometimes It feels like my prey is expirienced and i have to outsmart them. Other times im clearly the one with the power and they have to outsmart me. Sometimes a winning match becomes a losing one and vise versa. Its probably what i enjoy about Dead by Daylight and keeps me hooked. Even if i end up taking a break, here I still am playing this game while theres others I played liked and have never touched after completion or have had the urge to replay at all.
