  1. The first 3 don't really seem like "misconceptions" but just things that didn't end up happening.
    Something often misunderstood about leaks, is that the immediate assumption is that if they don't happen, they're fake, when really it's usually more that things for one reason or another get scrapped, There's not as many fake leak pranksters on the scene anymore especially not for something as trivial as a DbD DLC.
    When something isn't announced it's very common to be totally liquid, like all of Valve's leaked games, almost every single idea of a L4D3, a HL3, etc. were totally real, they just got scrapped or iceboxed because they weren't fond of the project's direction and/or timeline.

  2. Surprised you didn’t mention the Legion trailer implying either a cult or split personalities. I also remember everyone thinking Deathslinger was going to be a werewolf of some kind because of the teaser where the chain snags

  3. Maybe Skull Merchant is not a failed Predator license, but there is lot of similarities, maybe even more than between Hillbilly and Bubba. And for sure, her Mori looks weird… Unfitting, like designed for taller character, and more invisible than her.

  4. Another thing about the tools of torment chapter that makes people assume it was a licensed chapter that was scrapped was how there was 2 survivors with 6 perks which has previously been only for licensed chapters like resident evil and stranger things

  5. I wasn’t sure on the SM=predator thing, the drones seemed a lackluster power for such a monster. But the Mori, when I imagined a predator coming out of stealth, clicking as it did and then de-spining a survivor, made it make so much more sense. Like, if not predator stealth then why was the Mori so horrendously basic?

  6. In the original left 4 dead the reason why the witches stayed in one spot was because it was at night in left 4 dead 2 primarily takes place during the day so the witches stood up and started walking around shielding their face from the sun

  7. 10:00 not only the 5 was looking alike the Dimitrescu daughter's weapon, but in RE8, we can hear the iconic Meg screen when entering for the first time the main hall of Dimitrescu castle. Those were the two points that lead everyone believing that 5 years anniversary killer would be a RE8 killer and probably someone from Dimitrescu castle.

  8. I remember a lot of people thought The Unknown was going to be a skinwalker (it technically is but not in the traditional sense). There's also a lot of lore missconceptions, specially with some female killers that the playerbase headcanons as "tragic" or "missunderstood" like Huntress, Nurse or Susie.
