Read more Dead by Daylight ➜ https://deadbydaylight.mgn.gg

Hey everyone, today I thought we’d look over and rank each year of Dead by Daylight. For this ranking we are going purely off of the content that was released, and content received in those chapters for those years. As always, this is just my opinion, be sure to drop your own thoughts, down below. Let’s get into it.

What was your favourite year?

Chapter 23 has been announced! It’s Ringu, a licensed chapter releasing in March of 2022. For now we have no further details.

  1. I would agree with you if you would’ve put year 6 the lowest bcs this was THE WORST year for the game, not bcs of the content, but bcs of the controversies and the community’s response, Twitter, Reddit and in-game there was such a negative response from all of those that it felt like a war zone but generally all the other years are quite correct

  2. I wish they would add more basegame mechanics like totems, chests, breakable walls, etc. and not just turn everything into perks or killer powers. Hell, maybe even new survivor items that can be found in chests against any killer.

  3. Everyone is so hopeful for Haddonfield rework, but imagine if they just improve the design and will leave every tiles as they are 🤣
    One of my nightmares 🙃

  4. I joined with the stranger things chapter coming out. I knew the name stranger things but hadn't watched it. I just thought the flowerlike demogorgon looked really cool, It was a few days after my birthday and at that time I didn't realize I just found a game I would play for quite a long time and a show I would enjoy

  5. The fact that year 5 had no new maps (besides Midwich) was my biggest complaint. Maps do some heavy lifting displaying the associated killers affect on that world and what they're infamous for. Blight not getting his workshop, Twins not getting a massacred 17th century village or Trickster getting an abandoned Agency was so disappointing.

    Besides displaying their affect on the realm, the best part about DBD to me is that you can mix and match all these iconic killers and survivors in an interesting settings. Map's are just as if not more important and it really feels like maps have been becoming an afterthought these past few years.

  6. I think that Artist's power is actually super fun to use among the anti loop killers, taking away the fact that any antiloop power is kinda unfun to go against.
    That being said, the timing of the release was horrible, Artist was the 4th anti loop killer added (others being PH, Deathslinger and Nemi), and she also came out not so long after those. Behavior was getting hella scandals at the time, a lot of the chapter got leaked and the lore was very disappointing considering how hyped most people were about it with such a great set up (first latin american killer). She also got very bad first impressions that were exacerbated by the fact that youtubers like Scott Jund originally just said that she was another unfun antiloop killer, even tho nowdays, he and others have grow to like her power.

    All of that combined make one of the most unfortunate timings that led to a very bad letdown, followed up by everyone forgetting about the chapter.

  7. nah year 5 was the best imo. maybe its because thats when i started playing or bc im obsessed with the silent hill chapter but nothing else really had me excited to play dbd.

  8. The next killer should be the Headless Horseman. With Ichabod Crane as the next playable character.

    Think about how cool the costumes for other characters would be as well.

    The map could have the huge tree. The horseman comes from the bridge that Ichabod crosses out in the woods. It would be so cool with glowing pumpkins everywhere.

  9. I'm pretty surprised year 5 was at the bottom for you, it honestly had some of my favorites. I guess it's because of how jank twins and Blight were at launch. PH, blight, and twins are like all really fun for me both as a killer and survivor. I'm not the biggest fan of trickster, but the other three just are so good

  10. I love your vids man, since No0b has gone AWOL, you're top dog in my book. Is it safe to assume next video is ranking the chapters? :P. Or have I missed it?

  11. Honestly, year 5 was the best year of content and new chapters ruined by bad development for me. I love every killer that released (yes, even Twins), from backstory to power, and I can excuse the lack of maps because of Realm Beyond, but I can't excuse the year of its sad, horrible, buggy state.

  12. Twins need to go , they’re awful playing as of against. Their power is literally the worst imo and make Freddy look decent. I only played against them maybe twice and as them five times had zero fun.

  13. I think the only thing that made me dislike year 5 (silent hill was amazing tho) was all kill. I have a strong hate for this killer not cause I don't like going against him in fact I somewhat enjoy it no it's his god awful design. He looks like a crayon box. I know a lot of people have said this but he doesn't fit into the game at all. I have seen the simps for him say "ohh he's so normal he's scary" or "ohh he's not hiding his face". Ahem legion looks normal to me and Spirit and alot of other killers don't hide their face.

  14. I enjoyed Year 4, or what you called Year 5. The 4th year anniversary was one of the best times in DBD imo. The Silent Hill chapter release was an undescribable feeling. Everything from the map of Midwich, to the excitement of the new killer and his power was so cool.

  15. I would argue year 6 is actually the worst as Nemesis, Artist, and Pinhead are all horrendously unfun to play against the maps we got we’re not good and Nemesis’ chapter release broke the game for console, not to mention booms made the game unfun for killer
