  • I've said it before, but I'm a HUGE proponent for a Nautical Horror themed chapter. It's such an iconic sub-genre and yet we've seen so little of it represented in Dead by Daylight save for a few cosmetics like Trapper's Seaside Psycho. There's a wealth of opportunity in Nautical horror, and as far as original concepts go…
  • Brother I am busting the wallet out for this one. (The implication being that I don't bust out the wallet for every chapter which is entirely untrue)
  • The real answer here is apparently Bioshock from what I've heard, because the two companies have apparently worked together in the past and are also both Canadian companies that are not that physically far apart. (In the same city if I remember correctly). But screw it, people are actually voting Slender Man - a weird and…
  • On a slightly separate note, I just want to see a water-themed chapter ANYTHING at some point in Dead by Daylights future. I think it is severely lacking in Aquatic Horror, and the Trapper's "Seaside Psycho" cosmetic already proves it is a compelling character design. Not to mention there are plenty of ideas that can fill…
  • I am interested in the Terminator. NOT The Terminator. Beating around the bush aside, I am a huge fan of the idea of adding in the T-1000, and I am less than enthusiastic for the T-800 which I think would just be a missed opportunity. The powers of the T-1000 are far more diverse, with an arsenal fit to be the perfect…
  • After watching the show (around the time that Ash Williams came to DBD actually) I absolutely fell in love with Evil Dead, and I was so excited when I saw that they were releasing a game, it looks absolutely fantastic. What I think is absolutely great is that this game doesn't seem to shy away from the strength of the…
  • I'm absolutely the exact same way, Spine Chill is a mainstay perk in most of my builds when I'm playing survivor, but I absolutely recognize it is some of the most ridiculous nonsense for a perk. It provides an insane amount of accurate information, neuters stealth killers, is one of less than 5 something perks out of 100+…
  • Right now I'm on my between-tomes break where I'm relaxing away from the perpetual grind cycle that is Dead by Daylight. So 0. Meaning I can actually enjoy other games, CIV 6 for example.
  • Just as an overall standard I'm anti-creepypasta. As far as licensing goes there are a multitude of options that are far more interesting and provocative than any of the lazily written "scary stories" that cropped up on the internet in 2011. In what universe would I pick that garbage over something from Stephen King??? I…
  • After all the time I've sunk into the game after nearly six years now, I began to realize at a certain point that not running add-ons is truly just an absolute waste. On my killer mains I've got more than plenty of add-ons to last me a very, very sizable chunk of time, and not using them is essentially just hoarding them…
  • His mori is the way it is because it was animated that way nearly six years ago on original release. So it's less because they thought it fit stylistically with his character and more because it's a product of the time. Dead by Daylight wasn't a hugely anticipated game before release and didn't properly explode until a few…
  • Because she rocks mad Hex Girl vibes.
  • Why is ACE NOT on this list! You know for sure man has put down bets at some point or another to see if he could outdrink somebody for sure. His tome lore literally takes place in a bar, even if it wasn't focused around drinking. Or JEFF for that matter. Jeff's a pretty big guy, so he could definitely down a few- man's…
  • I'm not voting for CoH because I genuinely see multiple very clear ways to rebalance the perk, that for whatever reason the devs / community haven't completely embraced. Adding a cooldown either on the perk itself or on the last totem it was attached to, reducing CoH's range, getting rid of the healing speed boost…
  • Alien is a dream chapter, especially now that the Demogorgon is gone- we need some kind of otherworldly humanoid creature like the Xenomorph to fill the void that Demo left behind! Honorable mention is Bioshock. My personal most wanted video game license, unless we're counting Alien as a video game license itself which is…
  • I'm kind of confused on what "base game" means in this context, base game as in original / non-licensed? Base game as in which survivor is best from the ones you're given at base for free? Base game as in how good they are "at base" considering cosmetics and audio without teachables? I just picked Meg anyway. I'll stand by…
  • It's not that they're impossible, with enough persistence you can get them done (I've completed every single adept for all killers and survivors) and since you can choose whatever add-ons you want plus which map you want to go to that certainly helps. But some perks don't have synergy (or even worse have anti-synergy) with…
  • It's such a basic feature, you'd think that the devs would have included it when they released the archives in the first place. Small quality of life things like that which Dead by Daylight lacks are sorely needed, and without them really just makes the game feel less smooth to play overall. For example a feature which…
  • I don't think I'll ever turn down an idea for new animations so long as they stay true to the characters and the game. New animations are really cool, and increasing the number of actions a character can perform always makes them seem more unique and lifelike.
  • I'm absolutely in love with the idea of a potential Bioshock chapter and having the Big Daddy as a potential killer, it is by far my most wanted Video Game license right above Outlast. There's so much room to create such an interesting power, between the little sisters that they are attached to and relentlessly protect, a…
  • Like Rancor, play both sides. I'm always appalled when the "both sides" isn't listed as an option on a poll.
  • I think everyone for the most part agrees already, I feel this poll is a bit out of date and looks like something that would have been discussed at the time Discussions about DS were a dime a dozen and no changes had been made yet. For the first time in years ever since DS was released, it is finally in a good spot. It…
  • That's because Ace mains are cool cats and non-toxic 😎
  • I've said this loads of times before, but I'll say it again: "The hard mode" perk is really just an excuse to have a poorly designed perk. We called it out back then when the chapter was released, but the devs more or less ignored the community. Instead, the devs pushed the idea that it was a "hard mode perk" and nothing…
  • Exactly. That is what makes "treating boons like Hex's" so dumb, my point was to illustrate how foolish the idea was and you just reiterated that point perfectly. Boons shouldn't be treated like Hex's in any respect whatsoever.
  • Again, absolutely agree ^ The idea that you can balance Boon totems exactly like you balance Hex: Totems is absolutely ridiculous on a multitude of levels. Not only would you be gutting the boons which are reasonably balanced right now (Shadow Step, Exponential, I hear Dark Theory isn't too crazy right now in PTB but we'll…
  • The real problem isn't with what they do or how they do it, it's more that they take so LONG to make changes that I have an issue with. The changes made from PTB -> Live are probably the quickest they get anything done, but besides this it can take months or even years for a killer to get more changes after. Leaving them…
  • RPD. Too big, multiple floors, Circle of Healing hurts most of the time but it's especially worse on maps like this one, and there are a surprisingly decent number of pallets that are pretty safe if you're not playing a chase killer. You can use the twisting layout of the map to your advantage and cut a survivor off, but…
  • I don't think this makes any difference, if you Rage quit or you DC accidentally, regardless the other players don't get the opportunity to use their add-ons / offerings in a completely normal and satisfying match. This is just a distinction without a difference, the remaining players are negatively impacted all the same…
  • It's far more interesting to say they are canon than they aren't, considering Dead by Daylight falls under the Cosmic Horror genre and therefore deals with a lot of multiverse-type-shenanigans which is just by nature ingrained into the base lore. Plenty of explanations fit fairly easily and produce some simple answers: The…
  • Lmao I like this idea a lot actually, fits with her character lol.
  • "Victor can really only wait by an exit gate" You say this as if this isn't of any significance or consequence: "yeah victor just kinda stands there..." As far as playing Survivor goes, this has to be one of the most annoying things about the twins, and arguably makes their endgame (after the generators are done) stronger…
  • Very well put, the only reason I selected the faster heals is because I think this aspect of the perk is more problematic than the self-heal aspect- in part because I think the self-heal aspect of CoH is supposed to be the main feature and appeal of the perk and the bonus to healing speeds is just a bit of over-the-top…
  • Killer perks aren't as universally hatable as Survivor perks are because it's less about the perk itself and more about the killer it's ON, and this is also affected by the add-ons they use as well. Right off the bat, I can't really bring myself to remember a specific time where I thought "if this perk didn't exist, the…
  • I didn't actually think about that, that's a really good point. Personally, I like new locations because I like the idea that I could be going to a number of places in a single realm. Usually when I spawn in the first thing I see is the map itself, the color, the environment, the assets around me, etc. and after that I'll…
  • You should have clarified in the poll's title that this would only be about video game licenses, seeing as they are the only ones you listed as poll options. I would take The Xenomorph, Pennywise, The Predator, The Thing, Jack Torrance, Jason Voorhees, Chucky, Candyman, Hannibal Lecter, The Terminator (T-1000), etc. over…
  • I think the most annoyed I had ever been perkwise as a killer in a match was when I went up against four survivors who threw down the RPD Map offering and were all running Circle of Healing. I legit think if there was ever an impossible match to win, it would be that, maybe not against the particular team I was against…
  • "encourages" is a strong word, I don't think anybody who is using Sole Survivor and is also realistically trying to escape is actually letting their teammates die. You'd get more value out of your teammates being alive (assuming a "normal" match where everyone is equal skill level [arguably not normal, but idc atm]) than…
  • Personally I prefer werewolves to vampires on most days, but in DBD I think a vampire would probably work better. Vampire mythology has all kinds of quirks and special abilities depending on which direction you go in, so there's LOTS of wiggle room to create a cool ability out of traditional or brand new powers /…
  • I'm late to this one and obviously the poll results are basically set in stone, but c'mon, who was actually gonna vote for Old Ruin lol. Old Ruin was a problem, but separately it was also problematic because it was insanely inconsistent. Skill checks depend completely on RNG so you could do nearly an entire gen. with only…
  • In which case if you're talking about the mythical creature it's spelled Undine or Ondine, not Undyne - because the latter is the character created by Toby Fox. A google search will ONLY bring up Undertale if you search up "Undyne" so I don't feel as bad for misinterpreting, since it was the result of a typo on your end.…
  • A nerf would imply that the effect of the perk is fine and all that is needed is a minor (or major) number change or small tweak / variation. I believe the changes that were made to the perk were fundamentally flawed and promote some seriously unhealthy gameplay. Playstyles that can very deliberately and easily be abused…
  • Misclick, meant to select The Terminator T-1000 specifically I think would be a really unique and underrated pick I don't think people think about enough
  • Probably more reasonable and realistic yeah lol Pretty decent idea actually
  • It's not that Self-Care should be faster, it's that Boon Circle of healing should be a hell of a lot SLOWER. The nerf they gave it was egregiously pitiful, and it won't do a thing to make it a less viable perk. Although I could see some arguments that Self-Care may be in need of some kind of attention- a buff or a tweak…
  • BHVR has zero reason to do it, but what am I gonna do- say "no" on the poll for free auric cells? Honestly this just falls under the umbrella of conversation of their store page in general. How weirdly they've priced things in their store. The haphazard way that some things are determined to be paywall locked or not…
  • I can't even remember the last time I ran Shadowborn. Maybe I'll stick it into an intense tracking build just for a joke build for 2-3 matches one of these days.
  • Stop trying to fudge up queue times more than they already are. Survivor queue is already insanely long right now and you want to give people MORE opportunities to make it even longer with constant dodging. ??? Not to mention it'd disproportionately affect specific killers, if I had the choice I would never go up against a…
  • Giant Spider is honestly the least likely thing to be made. Devs stick to human / once-human / humanoid characters pretty exclusively, but the "Giant Spider" is such a classic pick that harkens back all the way since when DBD released that I couldn't help but pick it for the purposes of this poll. I just want them to…
