  1. Well, I have a friend who detests lightborn and says all kinds of things about it when he goes against a killer using it… because he's always carrying a purple beamer that lasts the entire game.

    It could be a better perk, but it's the cheaper, more accessible version of Franklin's, since they both make flashlights useless if you play your cards right. Except Franklin's is even better cuz it affects other items, but you gotta be able to actually hit survivors and keep them away from the dropped item long enough for it to become obsolete.

  2. this started from spooknjukes video about “toxic” streamer reactions thats deleted now, he was bitching about sofareks dcing cuz of lightborn but he put clips of streamers wishing death upon people in the same vid

  3. This phenomenon happens every time a Smash character is revealed. Tens of thousands of posts talking about mad hoes, but 0 mad hoes. Kinda like when we got Trickster there were thousands of people who were making fun of people for complaining his design, but no one was actually ever complaining.

  4. remember when equipping lightborn would make the game darker? And it didnt even give you immunity to flashlights (which mattered a lot, because instablinds were still in the game). The original version of this perk was actually so trash its unreal

  5. Dude I swear, I haven't played DBD in like five months and it is THE BEST SHIT EVER to just listen to all the people freaking out and seeing all the bs that still happens while you yourself just don't care bc you don't play atm.
    So to conclude how to really have fun in DBD: Don't play it, just observe people that play DBD. It is the best thing ever. Like wtf, lightborn??? Out of every perk and in general every issue in and with the entire game people argue about lightborn???? This has to be a massive troll.

  6. i'm sorry but im still traumatised by the fake patch notes video cause im oblivious and in a locker watching youtube. you absolutely triggered me with them false patch notes, and i'm still upset about it.
    still though, i forgive you for doing that cause its not worth it getting extremely mad over something that in all realismn doesnt matter. i'll still play dbd and i'll still watch your videos on occasion.

  7. There was a Spooknjukes video of him reacting to salty survivors where one of the streamers loses his absolute shit over the killer running Lightborn. That might've been the start, but I don't know for sure. I'd link it but he just put out a video about no longer doing those videos and taking them all down.

  8. I think the average DbD player doesn’t play DbD and just watches streams/ videos and participates in the community which is a terrible sign for the health of a game but it seems like it’s only getting worse over time

  9. This reminds me of that time in DBD when people were saying that individuals playing the game were targeting people who had pride flags. I literally found no evidence of this and it circulated around unquestioned until it became a big thing.

  10. What Scott fails to mention is that Lightborn has insane synergy with other perks. For example, if you run Lightborn with Corrupt Intervention, the three farthest gens from you get blocked for two minutes at the start of the trial.

  11. While I certainly do not doubt that there are plenty of examples of people geuinely getting baited into arguing about lightborn – I think there has to be some level of people being sarcastic and just meme-ing about lightborn and it getting misunderstood instead. And maybe a bit of some trolling / facetiousness.

    Y'know, some good old Poe's Law? "Without the voice inflection and body language of personal communication that we cannot use when writing online – Absent a winking smile, "s", or other blatant/unambiguous display of humor, any sufficiently in-character parody of something extreme can, and will, be mistaken for the real thing, no matter how obvious the author believed the satire was as they wrote it."

  12. step 1: Load in with clicky clicky squad
    step 2: Have Lightborn
    Step 3: make survivors realise you have lightborn and in turn make them pressure gens
    step 4: reveal your Eruption, Scourge Hook: Pain resonance and pop goes the weasel

    Always be 4 steps ahead of the survivors my friends

  13. This started with Spook'N'Jukes making a video about some french dude who ltierally DC'd vsing a killer who used lightborn and then went on a rant in his stream about how pathetic killers are who use light born. This was a man swf all using flashlights btw lol.
