This game is like an abusive relationship. Sometimes it treats you right, but most of the time, it just makes you question your life choices. I love this game. I hate this game. I don’t know why I still play this game. The hitboxes are trash, the matchmaking is rigged, killers either tunnel you into the ground or let you go for free, and survivors are either gods or completely useless. The bugs, the ridiculous balancing, and the moments that make me want to uninstall for the 50th time… I keep coming back. Why? I don’t know. Maybe I enjoy suffering.

Is this game worth the money? ---------------------- Gameplay? Yes Replay value? Yes Community? Hell no. ---------------------- This game has a massive playerbase problem on both sides of the spectrum, in 1 corner you've a group of 4 individuals constantly complaining about perks, add-ons, offering brought, hell in most cases even the killer the enemy chooses. And on the other spectrum is a god-complex having maniac trying their damn hardest to be playing the game in many ways it's not meant to be and calling it a ''strategy'' & Countering said playstyle by mentioning ''Should've brought ........ perk'' Like it's clear from the start the way someones gonna be playing. ---------------------------- Entitlement runs in the blood of DBD players and it impacts the game in a negative manner, players be targeting people for the charms, the character they play. ''I tunnel sable mains out because _____ reason'' And on the other spectrum theres ''I DC because screw ______ killer'' ------------------------------------ This is burned into about 90% of the player base, you've people actively going out their way to ensure someone doesn't get an achievement, people blocking exists, generators, doors, pallets. killers holding games hostage, slugging people till everybody bleeds out regardless the playstyle of the survivors, making it their gods given goal to remove someone out the game. ------------------------------------ This is 90% of ur games, the other 10%?? Are the absolute best moments you'll have with friends, drunk by daylight, perk roulette, just any challenge to spice up the game. Funny quirky builds, you name it. Are what makes the 90% acceptable. But it's not the standard for a game this old. --------------------------------------------- Do not even get me started on the optimisation of this game, a decade old bloodweb mechanic that is severly lacking, no adjustable sound options, minimal accessibility options, constant frame stutters, spikes, glitches & game breaking bugs. ---------------------------------------------- That's DBD for you. From someone with a combined playtime of 3k hours.

Don't take the game seriously and the game is actually fun. Buy it on sale, as it often does go on sale, cause there are a ton of DLCs.
