About Dead by Daylight
Dead by Daylight is a multiplayer (4vs1) horror game where one player takes on the role of the savage Killer, and the other four players play as Survivors, trying to escape the Killer and avoid being caught, tortured and killed.

As a killer main "im real tired boss"
Lately the game feels the same. Either camp or tunneled or 4 swf bully squad it's just almost every match and makes you not want to launch anymore.
I been playing 5 years straight still not burn out. I am happy with the game but still waiting for my dream killer to come in the game if they ever do it
I played God of War Ragnarok and stopped playing this for a long time. I came back to the game for the new chapter and was disappointed. Everything in the game feels off now. Killers feel slow now, just everything feels wrong. There are other games coming out so I may just wait on coming back to dbd
After 6 years I'm finally done with dead by daylight ,can't wait for leatherface game ,,,, and too you question what in life is the only way you learn !?? From your mistakes and the devs are trying to baby players
can we have Elon Musk buy out BHVR and fire these lazy POC and improve the game
New game modes have to come. Who cares about chapters, honestly. I want new game modes, that would be refreshing
Nah fuck that double locker shit 😂 I currently welcome the change BUT the way it should of been is they can get the first save, and just add immunity to the second attempt, that way ACTUAL saves count and are worth it and it removes the ability to abuse it.
Edit: Don't remind me about Twins release 😂
The knight has so much potential but in reality he is basically just an overrated M1 killer, I also hated the snowman event, I want something fun killers can actually join in on, let me get into a snowman to hide. Snowman jumpscares please. All in all I do agree with everything.
Just finished a killer game a few minutes ago, more stressful than fun. So glad Callistol Protocol will be out in a few hours.😅
Yo Gimms, non related but I was watching your older videos just to have something sweet for my dinner and I really see the improvement in "everything" in videos, keep it up man, much love <3 gl
I wish Bloodhunt didn't suck. I had so much fun wayching you play it.
When i play DBD its 95% of the time just survivor. Killer is frustrating and a headache to play so i cant be bothered. Survivor is way more chill but sometimes solo q can be unbearable. Which suck because i use to love to play killer. Idk maybe SBMM needs to go because ever since that happened it just feels different. I also wouldnt mind if we got 3 or 4 months of just health and QOL changes. No new killers/survivors or perks. Balance what we have now and balance all the maps, items, powers, endgame mechanics.
yes ive been burnt out for awhile. Its a lot to do with to many bugs and other people being shit heads. I've completely stopped visiting the forums because i cannot stand the mods.
lately i’m going into my matches with a “meh” attitude where i don’t really care if i win or lose. just trying to play casually without any sweating. it’s been more chill
i’m burnt out on the community though. last night i had a match where i tried taking hits for people and generally helping them out, yet in the post game chat all they could do was complain and tell me how much i suck lol. i was like okay, im not even gonna bother getting upset. i said gl in next and moved on, the players can really be the ones that make you want to just play something else
Fuck, man, we're going into year 7……
It certainly feels worse this year. The game is just more boring than it was last year. The killer meta is worse now where we no longer search for Undying Ruin totems and instead suffering through Eruption and Call of Brine. They even shadownerfed killer vault builds which will make killers overall sweatier. The Knight already seems dead in the water and we're getting basically the same winter event as last year and do we even get a holiday tome? Steam Charts shows the average amount of players falling below 34k and usually DbD has a pretty bad annual slump between lunar new year and the anniversary. That Meet Your Maker game that they're working on better be a hit, because it seems like they are fine letting DbD fade.
It seems to me this game really started going downhill after the release of twins.its pretty much slowly stopping being fun for me and other players, which is sad cause dbd used to be my favorite game. At least it isn’t as bad as overwatch 2’s launch though.
This game got old quick tbh. It's just the horror version of Fortnite. No real depth, just reskins.
I whole hardly agree Mr Gimms!!! But its dead by daylight n its MasterPiece!!!!! Farmer0fhope
I think all your points are true. I've faced burn out with this game several times in the past. The gameplay is stale, nothing new to change it. Survivors keep getting better perks & it just feels like a big dick measuring contest of gen perks at this point. "Oh look I'm run 4 gen defense perks!" 'Oh yeah well my team has a total of 16 gen perks to speed em up, not counting our secret 5th perk Basekit BT.'
Slight rant yet I'm tired of the whole gen perk bs. Not to mention the folks whining to buff solo que. You buff them it only adds to SWF's, plain & simple. BHVR have shown they don't care about what Veteran players say less one of the Fog Whisperers makes a video calling them out. Even then it's 50/50 if they respond at all.
Personally G, I think you streaming Ark & other games outside DbD way more often. Seriously stream DbD like 2 out of the 4 days you stream. I think if chat sees you having fun & smiling/laughing at a game you enjoy way more than the true folks who follow will stay to watch you more, adding to the community. I personally watch you for you, game be damned. The vibe is what draws me in & makes it fun * enjoyable.
Here's to watching you play other wonderful games G!
Well said. Too much safety and control that we veterans can easily see. It is also what they don't say and think that we don't know their intentions. This last update contains a shadow nerf to the knight,…on top of the add on nerfs. WTF are they doing? No more insta-put guards down, now 0.3 to 0.5 delay. Killers with blue ball powers,…making the survivor the power role of the game. Kind of like letting the prisoners run the prisons,…Oops did I offend? Sorry,…not sorry lmao
After playing for 5 years how many times can I play the exact same game mode? That and the removing jungle gyms in favor of these new tiles was the final straw. Haven't played in about a month and I don't miss it at all.
Too bad we can't hear Sluzzy say the Knight is too OP. Lol
I'm already over the forged on fog chapter and DBD in general for the year
I burned through all 85 tiers of the new rift. And hit p100 on my Nea, and invested in the new survivor whilst leveling Nea up, Since I only play her. I only p1 to get tier one; And invested all my Bloodpoints into her again while prestiging up to 100..
the “reward” for the grind.. was very anticlimactic.
I severely burnt myself out.
I will only log in for the rewards for the advent calendar this month..
cause there is a apart of me that will come back to the game.. but not anytime soon.
Me and my buddies are veterans, can confirm that we spend way too much on this game… My one buddy literally buys out every surv skin as it comes out, probably spent over 1k on this game but he hasn't been online in like a week now…
Lockers saves were fun and needed some skill to pull off thats why i loved them. On the other hand i get why they changed it.
Iam feeling burnt out of DBD for a while now, just playing few games every now and then…
Just very bored about the never changing core mechanics and we not even get any cool new ones. Additionally Killers get more and more side objectives like breakable walls and boons which makes it even harder to have a fun game as killer.
I guess I lucked out because I just started this game a couple months ago. Tons of content and still a lot of people playing online. My friends and I have been having a blast.
Yea i'm burnt out i came back for halloween event and i'll be back for christmas event. I take big breaks in between maybe i'll play new killer or survivor for the day when it comes out but that's it. Solo q is ruff and i just find it boring.
They're bringing gen perks in because Killers complained about Deadhard which is a perk that helps in chase. They gave killers a buff in July to help out in chase, why would they bring out perks to help survivors in chase right after? They're trying to appease to killers, but they have to bring out some kind of perks right?. If the Devs only came out with killers and no longer survivors killers would rejoice I bet. So Devs can't make gen perks, perks to help out in chase and we already have so many healing perks we don't need anymore. So at this point what are the Devs to do? Guess not make anymore survivors becuz bygolly the amount of bitch festing on the killer side there will be. The fast food complaints need to stop as well for everyone. Upset bout the game and ppl expect things to be fixed the day after like ur going thru a fast complaint drive thru. The problem with the world today is the instant gratification. The "I want it now" syndrome. The comparing of killers need to stop as well. Let's make all killers as powerful as Nurse and Blight, we already have a huge dc problem and making every killer as powerful as the Nurse is gonna help? Every killer should be seen as unique and shouldn't be compared, it just breeds a bad mentality. Also dbd is not casual. Imagine ur running the killer using up a large chunk of the resources on the map. If no gens get done then guess what that survivor that's been getting chased isn't gonna be very happy. If im playing survivor and I am just dinking around not doing gens and the survivors lose becuz of it, how am I supposed to feel after that? Both sides wanna win. The huge focus on the end game result is what denys the game from being casual. If ppl can't handle the stress of the game then either take a really long break or quit the game entirely. It's time to put our big boy pants on!
As a player who plays both sides I'm getting sick ok killers tunneling at 5 gens even if killers bring a map offerings that is killer sided like midwich and shelter woods as survivor it just not fun and as for killers is just gen rush after gen rush like the devs needs to look at gen speed perks because the extra 10 seconds to the gens is nothing if survivor are running them now sure killers can bring gen perks but every game I don't want to bring gen perks because I want to try out something different but it's not going be be possible because of survivors gen perks like prove thy self, hyper focus and stack out and potential energy now those are yours really pushing the killers to be more and more stressed because the killers can only do so much so the survivors gen perks need to be looked at I'm ok with fog wise the perk because I mostly played solo q during the day but at night I either play in a swf or play killer and that's where in my opinion is where the most unfun thing comes into play which is a swf running gen rush perks and killers run gen defense perks which is starting to be so boring to see it over and over I have no complaints on customs I feel like it's a life saver for me to continue playing with no swfs no gen rush perks and play a certain killer that I'm always fine with like play trapper against the bots or play nurse against the bots and would I complain in customs nope because I have none in customs but in public there is a lot of it and it's due to survivors bringing 4 gen speed perks with a toolbox with bnp or a medkit with and insta heal and killer bringing 4 gen defense perks that are so good but so obnoxious to go against every game and killers tunneling at 5 gen now if it's 3 gens done and only 2 hooks I don't blame the killer for tunneling because that is the only option to do as killer but at 5 gens make 0 sense for me and I don't get it and I'll probably never will get it at all but yeah the 10 extra seconds on a gens mean nothing with all these gen speed perks and BNP as well and I want those gen perks to be either nerfed or rework to be something else like "prove thy self rework is remove the bonus BP and once your work on a gen with someone then it'll grant you 9% gen speed but if there 3 survivors then it'll be 12% gen speed and 4 survivors is 15% speed so basically 4 survivors on one gen Will give you the 15% gen speed just like today's prove thy self" I'm not sure about this rework I hope I did it great for hyper focus nerf is it doesn't work on tool boxes and with BNP and healing that will be a ok change and for potential energy I guess just lower the token stacks from 20 tokens to 15 tokens and for killers most used gen defense perks I honestly have no idea what they're rework or nerfs are going be but hopefully some people would figure it out maybe and as for splitting up on separate gens across the map I feel like the killers need some type of notification of a survivor is alone and not with anyone at a certain range to get it that can counter the split up on gens because right now there is no counter against split up on gens ATM and give killers some perks basekit like fire up, beast of pray and maybe a little of enduring basekit just like they made brutal and STBFL basekit during that patch on august like I feel like those are great changes in that patch and now I feel like killers need basekit perks because so far killers get nothing while survivors gets 2 basekit perks rn which is BT basekit and soon unbreakable basekit and oh what after unbreakable basekit DS or old dead hard basekit or something useless at least and not some super stupid but yeah swfs need to be nerfed in some way like maybe a swf game mode like gens are now 30 extra seconds which I know it's way too much but I'm now throwing out ideas now like there's a lot of things that I can say on this whole thing but with the current meta for survivors and killers build is going to be gen perks after gen perks every match but it is what it is for now but yeah like I said earlier gen perks needs to be looked at on survivors and some killers too so that hopefully it'll be less stressed than what everyone is going through right now in this current state.
I don’t think flashlights should be a thing at all 🖕🏻
I find it odd that I still haven't feel any burn out with DBD. Killer has been more great, maybe even better than ever in my opinion and I'm shocked that you don't seem to agree with that.
Yeah I'm glad it's not just me whose been feeling burnt out for a while. Honestly, since wesker released. Although wesker is actually bvhrs best killer in a while. it's the game itself just becoming boring
