Well, he may not have been GONE-gone, but considering how rare Demo became after he was pulled off the shelves, we all missed him!
-
A long time after this comment, but legitimately, this came out of a dream. I refined some concepts while conscious, but the general idea came from sleeping.
-
I'm gonna be absolutely honest with you, No Saviour is intended to play along with the "Carry Build"TM, where you use Iron Grasp, Mad Grit, and Agitation, leaving you to be a bit of a spooky man, or even skulking away with your prey if you use Knock Out for whatever ungodly reason.
-
Oh yeah, that'll be absolutely nutty.
-
Holy crap, you are absolutely right. That's a little crazy to think about!
-
I mean, those are fair concerns. I just have too much undeserved hope that BHVR would fix some issues, in regards to your last point, there. XD As for the power creep thing, I know it isn't a good excuse, but meh. Just didn't have much other reason for what I put in. Nothing else to be said, really.
-
Thank you for your input! This is a really solid review, and I'll try to address your concerns and comments down the list! 1: Fear the Reaper- The trick is that in order to do that, the Fearmonger has to waste tons of time waiting for the cooldown of FtR, since the cooldown and Carnal Fear stack gain is based on *total…
-
If there is, I'm blind. But yeah, this is definitely a mix of like, 3 or 4 Killers that exist now, but since he's both pretty strong conceptually, has a level of skill involved(Bouncing the sickle), and has a theme BHVR hasn't explicitly focused on yet, it puts him pretty high up on the quality list. That and the perks are…
-
Heheheh. I see what you did there. 😁
-
You know what, I agree with this statement. It isn't a GOOD event, per say, but at least they TRIED! What did we get for Halloween? Pumpkin kicking with RNG speed boosts or hincerances. At least this one is kinda unique and silly.
-
Why do I feel called out?
-
And you know the funny bit? They say that it's too complicated to make a system that tracks these things... But they ALREADY HAVE A SYSTEM THAT DOES THIS. Emblems LITERALLY do exactly what MMR was supposed to do- Track what you do in a match. They literally lied to our faces, spouted nonsense for a year, then sent out…
-
I mean, for the latest Killers, they just aren't good enough to appeal to people who aren't in it for the "Holy #########, Nemesis in DBD!" fad. The Artist might change that if she isn't gutted upon release like Pinhead was. Legitimately, Pinhead's chains actually stuck around long enough to make an impact during the PTB,…
-
I would have at least expected some form of secondary objective or reward that wasn't ham-fisted in a system I refuse to use out of principle. And the Anniversary event had Crowns, I know, but even the year 5 Crowns were just bad, since they were just reskins of the year 4 Crowns, which while not surprising, we could at…
-
Boon Totems. If I have to get more specific than that: Boon: Circle of Healing. I cannot STAND how stupidly overpowered this perk is. It's like old Mettle of Man come bacj to haunt me.
-
G-Good events? We got a recycle of the year 4 anniversary and PUMPKIN SMASHIG for Halloween this year, with pity "Collective" unlockable Cosmetics and NADA respectively in each! BHVR have disappointed me time and time again with their false promises, lies, and broken releases. If they do a Christmas event, it would be the…
-
I came up with it long ago, and it was designed to be a strong Hex with an effect the Killer could potentially drag out if the Survivors don't happen to cleanse it in the first 20 seconds of the game. High risk, high reward, after all.
-
I've shared this (Probably OP AF) concept before, but: Hex: Death Spiral- A Hex rooting its power on the fear of failure. For each unique Survivor that is hooked, this Hex gains a token. When the Exit Gates are opened, Hex: Death Spiral activates. Upon activation, Hex: Death Spiral blocke the Exit Gates for 30 seconds per…
-
You know, I've actually baited out Flashie saves as Demo by placing a Portal for a fraction of a second before standing up. He crouches down, puts a hand to the ground like he's picking someone up, and stands up again, and this is a huge bait for the flashie saver.
-
I swear by Lightborn, man. As soon as someone blinds me, I basically stop playing that Killer until I get Lightborn slapped on 'em. Too many times I have been blinded by stupid stuff, wasting my precious, limited time.
-
I dunno, I don't capitalize on slugging much, so I won't be quite as affected, but then again, I also swear by Lightborn and run Starstruck a lot, so unless you go down under a pallet, there ain't no saving you from my grabby hands.

-
I already have, and I still think Healing Circle is the most busted-OP perk ever created, aside from maybe old Mettle of Man.
-
I want to agree with you. Truly, I do. But with the addition of Boon Totems, I just can't agree, no matter how much I want to...
-
Yeah, it's pretty much a double-standard. I guess BHVR got tired of the memes about them being Survivor-sided and decided to go full-tilt toward their side.
-
You know, back in the day, I would have been against this idea... But now that DS is legitimately an anti-tunnel perk, I'd be fine with a guaranteed DS if they manage to get it off, no skill check needed.
-
Hi! Welcome to the Fog! First off, lemme say I respect you picking Myers to be your main, as Myers is one of the worst Killers in the game right now, sadly. Second, if you own no DLC to speak of, then yeah, you're going to suffer, especially because the majority of Myers' Perks are worthless in the meta. Each Killer has 3…
-
Not gonna lie, Self Care with Botany Knowledge and Desperate Measures is a pretty strong combo. Pair that with a strong medkit using the new Built To Last coming out, and we've got ourselves a spicy a-meatball.
-
Playing him after his most recent nerf as of October 2021, Freddy feels noticeably weaker than before, and the only real unique thing he has is teleporting to generators. The Dream World mehanic no longer does a lot, his snares are less-than-effective, and pallets got nerfed unnecessarily.
-
Oh yeah, that's right. My bad. Guess good ideas aren't allowed to exist in this game. *Sigh.*
-
You know, I always said that the only way Boons would be balanced is if Survivors could only bless Hexes, perhaps with an extra blank Hex spawning at the start, creating a fusion Totem where both the Survivor AND the Killer benefits from it, and either side can destroy it to get rid of a potentially powerful perk for the…
-
Surprised nobody here has said Wraith. Just the "BRRRT-!" When pallet meets face gets me every time.
-
... Wait a minute, as of when did Nea officially become a Killer?!
-
I could see both ends of the spectrum. Some would abuse it to bait-and-switch with Killers they know how to play, but others would do it for the memes and the fun times. Or if they had a really good game and want to live it again.
-
Nevermind the fact you get a 100% bonus to healing while in the circle... I dunno, seems kinda crazy to me.
-
Man, this comment did not age well... You poor, naive child in past-tense...
-
So 13.5 seconds of cooldown. That is bonkers. There is no way that is allowed, right?
-
If the calculations are right, either Nurse is gonna be on cooldown after that third blink for a whopping SEVEN SECONDS, or NEARLY TWENTY seconds, which sohnds entirely bonkers crazy.
-
The Devs tried something like this, once. It was abused, as always, by SWF tryhards.
-
So don't get me wrong, Demo has great addons. The problem is that a lot of those addons are either inferior to the effects of other addons that are MORE COMMON, or have niche uses. Demo has some FANTASTIC addons, but largely, he still has quite a few mostly-pointless ones.
-
What? This title makes no sense, so saying "Read the title" elaborates on nothing.
-
Excellent? Half of Demo's addons are still borderline useless outside of niche use cases, a brown is still one of his best addons, and Huntress still has crappy hatchet addons. I'm expressing a cautious optimism, but I don't think BHVR will do more good than harm.
-
The one way I see this working is if Boons have strong effects, but can only be applied to Hex Totems, transforming them into a Boon Totem, but leaving the Hex effect active on top of that. Then the Killer has to make the choice of sabotaging their own Hex to be rid of the Boon, or leave it up to use Devour Hope or Ruin…
-
You... You're joking, right? You have to be joking. This is 100% a joke.
-
That last one is godlike, can confirm as a totally-real-beta tester.
-
Honestly, just buff solo queue to SWF level by granting everyone comms, and you'll have free reign to buff Killers to match. Since SWF won't matter one bit with open comms for Survivors, Killers across the board will be much more viable to get buffs.
-
And that is the problem, methinks. You try to see the good in people that do these things, but unfortunately, DBD changes people. It shapes them into horrible people, even if only while they play. Nobody knows what it is, or why it is, but this is the effect the game has on people.
-
As a Killer Main, unfortunately, that's just the state this game is in at this point. Nobody likes getting steamrolled time and time again, and for most Killers, this is their reality. They play the game, expecting to at least get a decent match out of it, but then they get toxic tryhard sweatlord SWF meta build clicky…
-
Okay, this sounds like a meme, but a Killer whose power is based around carrying and using Survivors as weapons against their friends sounds kinda awesome, not gonna lie.
-
The one thing you're wrong about is everyone starting the same. The devs have gone on-record to say that MMR was doing work in the background MONTHS before going live. Everything else, though, I agree with, at least partially.
