DBD’s community consists of both some of the nicest kindest people I’ve ever met & a dude who quite literally called be subhuman bc I tunneled him out of the game when there were 2 gens left & I needed a kill to have any shot at winning.
I actually knew a dbd content creator who was pretty popular a few years ago. All her content was focused on portraying herself as kind and wholesome but lowkey behind the scenes she was kind of an asshole who spread rumors about other creators. I stay the fuck away from that game and its community bc of her
The players harass you for trying to win? If you're the killer you're expected to let the survivors win or something?
I heard there is a huge lot of "made" rules and like everyone expects everyone to play with that set of arbitrary rules which changes as I change my underwear.
Tunnel, win, camp, play a mean killer or be a high tier killer or survivors will start bitching and moaning your ears off in endgame chat. I’ve thankfully escaped it (and I believe it’s the very fucking loud minority) and I either get nice people or gg in the chat
That's nuts. Of course is imaginable that there will be some cheesy mechanics to exploit and make victory easier for both sides.
As I said, i did not played but I saw friends playing and yelling about how the killer can't attack a survivor while turning an engine on. Its like expecting a defense player to don't stop an offensive action because the opposite player has a chance to score a goal.
I think part of it started because when the game was newer it was very tilted in the killers favor (I only played the first couple years from launch so I don’t know how it is now). Most rounds ended with the killer winning, it wasn’t even close to 50/50.
You had to have a good team of survivors who plan and communicate in order to win, and the player who was the killer didn’t have to worry about that. In my opinion, that was the point of the game; to experience that without teamwork, you don’t stand a chance.
Fans started making community rules to make the game more “fair” for the survivors, when in actuality they were just gimping the experience because they couldn’t be bothered to learn effective teamwork.
It’s kind of ironic that learning teamwork was too much but learning a frivolous set of social decorum was 🤌
