I wasn’t going to make this video about King’s Q&A Twitter thread, but a few people asked me to cover the topics discussed in the thread and the answers by the devs to the community questions. And a few people wanted to also hear my opinion on the controversy surrounding the devs response as to whether or not reaching Prestige 100 could or should come with some type of reward. Let’s discuss.
What did you think about the off the cuff Q&A born out of King’s Twitter thread? Do you appreciate that they took the time to reach out and answer these questions form the community?
So what do YOU think about prestige level 100? Do you think it should come with a reward? If so, what kind? Let me know in the comments below!

as someone with 2 p100 survivorn, I would love to see just some bonus shards and or more bloodpoints forever, and maybe the red backround from last year but without animations
I always thought it'd be cool if for p100 they let you pick one full outfit for that character (auric cells or shards)
They want them things in video that I definitely agree with that you said when the p100 first started I grind my Adam was the first p100 character and survivors and Killers were like that was so cool some with text me after the match was over I even had a killer who is excited to play against my p100 Adam but then again I had Killers tunneling me out and texting me because I was a p100 in now I'm on my fourth p100 my second p100 was Vittorio and now Claudette & Renato so much grind in no reward smh 🤦🏽♂️
Idk if they're testing something or if I did something in my settings but I have not been able to see prestige in my lobbies for a few weeks now. I see them in endgame chat tho.
I want a blue Legacy
I think they should make a charm for survivor and killer at most because it just doesn't make sense to expect 60+ cosmetics or more
the bloody outfits are only a thing because they added them in 2-3 at a time as new characters were released
maybe they could release p100 cosmetics in batches or something idk
How about for every P100 one achieves, the cap on the bloodpoints has incremental increases so when new characters come out we have earned the right to save our time and prestige the characters perks instantly on release.
love your videos, but i disagree 100% with your fomo definition. FOMO can only be applied to something that will be taken away at some point. That's not what's being asked for here. And they take cosmetics and put them in the vault all the time for FOMO reasons. how can you skip over that point? And they dont need to create a new cosmetic for each character. They can take the Bloody prestige and make it yellow or purple instead of red. it would literally be that easy. And its honestly good they got feedback like that because it shows where the community is passionate and if a dev team can't take that kind of feedback they are in the wrong business.
Again I love your videos, but you have to stop simping for the devs, and realize your audience is the players, not the devs. Seems like your only perspective now a days is from the dev side.
My idea for survivors, is make "General" inventory for them all. Just pick appearance which one you like, and inventory is still there.
So let’s be clear, if you go back to prestige announcements TONS of people claimed they would get to 100 just to show off and they didn’t need rewards… literally said it and of course once they get there “where’s my reward?”
I’m the same way as you Paulie! I just play casually when I have the time and you play more then me.
What if when you get p100 on any character you unlock an exclusive loading screen?
Honestly I agree with your take on the prestige. I have 2 characters p100 right now and I don't need a reward for it. It was just fun to get there and a challenge among friends of who was was going to get there first. I'm more than happy to see what kind of cosmetics will be coming in the tome or in the store due to certain events.
P500💀 I would never I mean never reach that
They could give us something for the Devotion levels since those are invisible otherwise and you will reach it sooner or later without having to play a certain character.
If they don't want to add a cosmetic or charm to P100 they could just add a background or a picture border for that character that's themed to them or a generic one
Well let's not forget that the "if you complete the whole Rift – you'll get all of your Auric Cells back"-Thing is a Marketing Strategy.
Because many people are more willing to buy an Outfit they like when they only have to pay a fictional Ingame-Currency (Auric-Cells) then when they actually have to login to their Paypal-Account and see their money going. Sure Auric-Cells were Real-Money too but they lost the Connection to it because they are already spent and you won't lose real money anymore when you spent them. So people get stimulated into buying Outfits they wouldn't have bought with Real Money and will lose their Auric-Cells credit -> they have to spent another $10 to get the next Rift (FOMO).
Furthermore a special P100-Cosmetic is a great Idea (especially when they are considering to remove the Prestige-Badges in the lobby) because then People can decide if they want to show their high Prestige Level or not. Probably BHVR just don't like that they have to invest much work for no Money + People who wear these Outfits perhaps don't buy Outfits anymore.
Edit: A thing that they could do is like a cool Texture-Overlay (like being infected) so they don't have to Design separate Cosmetics for every existing and new Character.
Or add a optional Aura/glowing Effect like we have when collecting Invitations on an Event.
Or a bloody Prestige Head Icon for the Ingame-HUD.
The reward for hitting prestige 100 should be a month break from the game…
P100 already has the reward in the infinite level 50, high rarity item/add-on bloodwebs but I don't understand their reasoning. What position are they in to cite FOMO as the main reason for not having a different/better reward for P100? Dead By Daylight incorporates FOMO into so many parts of its' systems from the battle pass, limited time cosmetics, items/cosmetics limited to event participation and ironically the iridescent portraits when they introduced the new prestige system. There are three other reasons at the top of my head like "the bloodwebs are already a reward", "the P100 emblem is the reward" etc. but of all things they pick FOMO as their reason.
btw a rant like this brings out the best feedback(be it negative or positive at least now you know the situation and your not in the dark as a dev and you know what your community wants) and makes the devs actually listen and bring out cool updates
Hmm I see that both sides of the P100 reward conversation have valid concerns…
Personally I'd like a reward. A really cool skin like the entity has consumed us totally. Dark colors, smoky, orange eyes… something special. I dont think FOMO applies to this reward as you can't "miss out" as there's no time limit on earning the P100. It would just be jealousy that you see it and want it 😂
Why have a 100 level limit if there's no reward for getting "done" with a characters grind? Uncap the prestige level limit then, leave it open ended then no reward can be expected.
This might be a stupid idea, but it would be cool if it unlocked some feature or something. Like if it uncapped the bp or permanently gave double shards per level up
We should get Rewards for hitting p100 on Killer or Survivor
no one NEEDS a reward but every other aspect of the game gives rewards, tome challenges,daily rewards,bps for in game actions,how far you progress every month etc etc. but to get to p100 nothing?! doesnt make any sense..just do away with presige if it means nothing
I personally think the P100 reward should be something really flashy for the player cards they previously mentioned coming to the game. Like making your play card holographic or something nice.
there should be a reward for p100 paulie cause alot of people put alot of hours to get a survivor or killer to p100 or even just give blood points to the people that get to p100
Simply yes for many reasons.
It takes many many hours to get to P100.
Exclusive legacy cosmetics are a thing.
Its the only thing in the game to grind for besides getting to red 1 per month
I’ll have to dig through stuff and see if I can find it. I think it was mentioned during the anniversary stream. I’ll dig around and report back with a link.
Paulie what have we done!
the whole p100 thing sounds so woke in regard to bhvrs attitude..we could give rewards,but some people who want those rewards cannot get those rewards so they would feel bad about not having those rewards so we wont give rewards..
A great conversation about P100 Paulie! I understand their position on not wanting to make people feel like they have to for power gains but isn't that the point of playing games? I for one enjoy the grind. The reward at the top of the mountain would be nice and satisfying. That being said, I stand behind my thought of P100 unlocking an extra perk slot for that character. Also They should completely get rid of your prestige level in the lobby regardless of how they move forward with ANY reward. It would be better to see who you've gone up against in the end game.
In games there should always be rewards for those who 'complete' something, especially if it takes a long time to grind for it. And in the dbd game, this shouldn't even be a question and they should've added it to begin with!
If they dont want to hold stuff behind a massive grind wall, then they should delete the game. It takes 35 hours to get enough iri shards for one charscter
I have to agree that I think being able to use whatever perks I want on my main survivor is superior to each survivor having their own unique strengths and weaknesses. I’m glad dbd is not changing or implementing a system that forces me to change my survivor just so I can get a certain bonus.
as someone who is a casual player with a good amount of hours in dbd (1.1k), i can say that P100 is definitely an achievable goal and shouldn't be considered a massive FOMO thing, at least not on the levels of the limited time store cosmetics and such. Right now, my highest prestige is 66 on Ghost Face and i've been trying to get at least one prestige level per day. I usually play a couple hours per day, and I never fail to get that prestige level every day, and still spend BP on other characters here and there
They handled that prestige question horribly! My main is Ada and my p100 is still in the making over a year later. 😅 I don’t enjoy this game like before so that’s why it’s taken so long meanwhile I see friends on their 4th already. With that being said, a reward for achieving that would be motivational! It might make me and other people who are burnt out, to grind the game more. I think feeling left out is ridiculous. It’s totally achievable at any time unlike the tomes.
The P100 reward is seen during the events. Level 50 blood webs. Because we can spend blood points on characters that we don’t play thousands of cakes is better than hundreds. Not to mention all the cool event items that they allow to use all year long
Why not give the p100’s a bloody tag instead of just one bloody outfit where they can make any cosmetic bloody by locking it in. Then if they want to change the can lock and unlock
I just wish if you spend money buying a rift, you'd have more time to complete it or always have access to it even if it closes. Some people can't play everyday & I hate feeling pressured to play to get my money's worth even tho I'm burnt out or can't play. Or even unlock more tiers when buying it would be nice, like 5 or 10. Hell, or just add rift fragment xp boosts as rewards or something. The grind is just so exhausting, especially now that they have the deep rift. And as for a p100 reward, I'd take anything over nothing. A universal charm, or perhaps one for killer & one for survivor, a lot of bps & shards. Anything. Can't please everyone but there should be something at the end of that kind of grind.
I think P100 should unlock a head for that character that has a big arrow pointing down at the character kinda like the anniversary crown that’s visible at all times so when you try to mind game around obstacles your totality visible because you know most P100’s are trolling anyways.
I have 3 P100s atm, and i don't care much either way. Rewards would be nice ofc, but i knew going into it that the only 'benefit' for me is to flex.
I have the same play style as you, Paulie. I don't have a main character. I love Anna, Baba Yaga, and Amanda. I enjoy playing Myers, Ghost Face, Wesker, and a few others. I favorite RE survivors, main and alts. If there is P100 cosmetics for charecters, I would have to grind for my favorites and reach P9 for all new characters at the same time. If P100 is only for the main character, but I prefer the alternative, then I would have nothing new for Baba Yaga. Additionally, I am a completionist, I would want P100 for every single charecter in the game. The devs are correct for refusing to lock anything behind P100. I do have the same Riff investments as you, and I'm happy to continuously get extras from one single 1000AC investment.
The fact they were more concerned with FOMO from earning a reward rather than spending money on FOMO cosmetics annoys me.
Hey I made it into a Paulie vid 🙂
Paulie has a point here, Saber Interactive (the devs for Evil Dead the game) did a stream where they answered the communities questions and it ended exactly as Pauulie said it would for us if we dog piled them.
I mean, I think P100 reward should be background legacy portrait or P100 charms like prestige icon, or something new, it’ll be nice for P100 reward
