Edit - Reaction to the memento moris here: ruclips.net/video/vkSTAm3wFBk/видео.html I play Dead By Daylight for the first time: ruclips.net/video/oWvC9oj1iX0/видео.html Thanks for all the recommendations
Look up a channel called Pixel Brush. They have an entire Playlist of lore dives for the series, 63 episodes long ruclips.net/p/PLdRD_TPxW4MXTljiQZDrT14ThcGSxNMr3
Thats not easy, every killer has his own lore or backstory, I don't think there's a video with all the lore By the way if you are going to play the game I recomend you to not take the game to seriously, there's Is a lot of toxicity in the comunity, the Best way to evade that it's just playing how you like It and ignore everithing else
Pixel brush does some pretty decent analysis of the different characters lore's and tome stories (tomes are dbd combo battle pass and way to tell more in-depth stories then there base lore does) and since licensed killers don't really get any lore he talks about how DBD adapted them into there game. And if they did a good or bad job
Fun fact: the Ghostface in dbd is not from scream, he has his own original story wich is actually really damn good, dude is probably one of the smartest ghostfaces. He makes articles and news of himself as if he was one of the main investigators against ghostface, and sets up cameras to "spy" on ghostface even tho it is himself, so he literally avoids suspiction by playing the strong smart detective, and by the end he reveals himself, escapes and then dissapears captured by the "ENTITY" nevet to be seen again.
I think i remember reading somewhere that it was part of the license agreement that they designed their own character. Since the point of ghostface was that he could be anyone.
@@Adameia_ That's because they signed the licensing agreement with Fun World who makes (and own the rights to) the Ghostface mask and not Spyglass Media Group who owns the Scream Franchise. This means they are free to use Ghostface's image they can't use any backstories or characters from the Scream movies. Which personally is a plus rather than a negative. Let's the DBD team be creative which is where they shine since their original killers backstories are awesome.
@@LoneWanderer101 Yep, plus Fun World also made all new masks and outfits to coincide with the game, like Devil Face, Scorched Face, etc. All outfits in the game and also outfits they then made IRL. Also recently they added the Scary Movie mask (though it's not in the store yet, was in a RIft (Battle pass) and the bloody animated mask too! Also, I remember when Scream came out I was like OMG I have that mask! I'd had it for years.
If you're wondering why they are in the forest or in random places, it is because the killers and survivors were taken by an entity and put in a realm. That's not the full story, but a dbd lore lover can explain it better
The entity is a demonish creature that feeds of emotion, since the Dawn of humanity it would take people very rarely and take them to its realm where it forces the to do the trials (aka the games you actually play) which in turn create a lot of emotion for the entity to feed off of.
@@kujikawathemeekmage3640 True mb They run moderately quickly with a knife Edit: They're only 6.0 at max speed. I could've sworn it was faster, this is kind of lame
@@glitchwraith yeah, for the longest time I was convinced legion didn’t even run faster in frenzy it was just a mind trick because the camera moved closer to the ground.
Fun fact: the Ghostface is a very unique license in DBD. BHVR only bought license to the mask and created their own Scream-themed killer instead of buying license to Scream directly.
As you said, DBD started out as a small game and that's why you can see resemblance between the first few original killers and famous killers from media; like Trapper - Jason (mask covering the whole face, uses machete), Spirit - Sadako (both being grudge spirits coming back to life due to intense emotions) or the most obvious Hillbilly and Leatherface as they are nearly indistinguishable from each other
Currently all of the licenses excepts Stranger Things are still available to get! If you come across a Stranger Things character in game it's because they bought them before the license was removed. Great video, I loved your reactions!!
Yeah, they're supposed to be bringing back the Stranger Things chapter with some new content but the licsense has been held up so its unclear if its scrapped or just delayed.
@@thejensonater4492 It's not really a baseless rumor. There was a new unfinished map from Stranger Things in the game's files with new models, textures and animations, and the devs have expressed the desire to bring it back and hinted on another chapter. The reason why they didn't is probably because Netflix refuses to renew the license
@@bobblinggoblin2g2g2g2 I’m sorry when have they hinted at another chapter? But what do you mean they didn’t renew the license, like yeah they literally had it removed of course they didn’t renew it. But if Netflix didn’t “renew the license” then they wouldn’t have started making the chapter at all, they aren’t gonna put time and effort into making something for a franchise if they don’t have access to the license yet because if they don’t end up getting it then they’ve just wasted their resources on something that will never see the light of day. As for the unfinished map, it’s very possibly a hoax/fake etc. Remember the Vecna model that was totally 100% “found in the files” but ended up just being made by a guy who wanted to demonstrate his digital modelling skills that some other people lied about. It is very possible that it could be real, but it could equally be, if not more likely is a fake or just a fan concept.
You should look at the alternate cosmetics for some survivors: For the Left for Dead chapter, the OG 4 (Dwight, Meg, Claudette, and Jake) have alternate costumes where they can dress up in the outfits of Ellis, Zoey, Rochelle, and Francis. They’re not changed to look exactly like them, but DbD has taken that approach to their other survivors. For example with the first Resident Evil chapter, Leon and Jill are the two survivors you can play as but their alternate cosmetics from the store can change them to Claire and Chris. Steve in the Stranger Things chapter can become Jonathan. Cheryl can become Lisa Garland, Alessa Gillespie, Cybil Bennett, and James Sunderland. I don’t know if it’ll ever be in the store or if it was a limited time offer in The Rift (DbD’s version of a battle pass) but players could unlock the Wassup mask from the Scary Movie franchise. One of Pinhead’s costumes could change him to the Chatterer (the one cenobite that has no eyes and his teeth chatter) And DbD has collaborated with other folks in the past for their costumes! They collaborated with Attack on Titan and some of the survivors have cosmetics inspired by the franchise (squad outfits) and I think the killer The Oni has a Titan costume. And if you’re familiar with the horror RUclips channel Crypt TV, their monsters have appeared as alternate costumes for three of DbD’s killers: The Doctor can become The Look-See monster The Hag can become The Birch Witch The Huntress can become The Mordeo. I’m excited to see even more collabs if they ever run out of liscenses to buy.
If you never bought the rift pass then I think you can buy the cosmetic later on I remember I never bought some outfit for Hillibilly like the milkman and there are a few item that you can buy on the store after the rift pass . However, License Outfits such as Bill military outfit there was one time you can buy it yes the outfit was free on the rift pass but you can buy it and the Amanda and Tapp outfit you can buy it if there is a time limit they can return one point and Ghostface I don’t know when they will return
@@bryanthernandez9769 I’m hoping the Wassup mask for Ghostface and that galactic outfit for Feng Min will be added to the store one day soon. Didn’t get the chance to get them because of college.
"They must be running out of licensed killers." Little did he know they would also add the Alien and Chucky 😂 Great video man, you know your horror stuff!
You know the entity can revive you right even if you died you can be alive in the entity that because the entity gave you life look at Amanda I know it’s not cannon but there are a few such as the twins who are original characters from Behavior they are alive thanks to the entity Victor aka the little baby guy died before he went to the entity with Charlie aka Charlotte
@@bryanthernandez9769I think a better example of the entity reviving someone is Adam (I think that's his name), he was in the spirit chapter. In his lore it was said that he died during a train accident. Fun fact: in his trailer, he checked the back of his head and it showed blood, that was because of the train accident because he probably hit his head during the crash.
Actually I have a theory. I don't really think it's Victor. The entity has proven that it can make its own creatures and own living beings. So maybe victor is just an entity made copy to make Charlotte hunt and hook survivors for emotions to feed on. Just a theory
So, the thing with the Oni mask is that the person who wore it was the Spirit's ancestor, a legendary samurai named Kazen. He was enraged and awoken when Rin's(the Spirit) father murdered her and her mother with the family sword, the same sword that he used long ago, and returned as an Oni to take vengeance on the father, but was instead kidnapped by an Entity.
I love that you've finally checked out DBD! A few things: Survivors can't outrun the killer, since the base speed of most of them is slightly faster than Survivors running speed. Fortunately all of the licensed chapters are still playable, except Stranger Things. However, people who bought the DLC can still play as the characters. The Legion can't disguise as survivors. The Legion (in lore), is a group of Teens, who are full of rebellious spirit. They were basically DBD's version of Ghostface before they got the licence. Thier ability in-game is a chain hit-and-run power. They break out into a fast sprint, helping them catch up with survivors. When they hit a survivor while running, they injure and inflict Deep Wound upon them. Deep Wound is a timer, where if the survivor doesn't mend the wound, they will go into the dying state. (Timer doesn't decrease while in chase) After inflicting Deep Wound, The Legion's power bar is refilled, and they can sense the location of nearby survivors, allowing them chain hits and maintain a lot of pressure. They're pretty fun. On the topic of Ghostface, his inclusion is a unique one. See, they didn't get the license for Scream, they got the license to use the Ghostface mask. Scream doesn't own the Ghostface mask/costume. FunWorld does. That's why there's no characters from Scream in DBD. So Ghostface in DBD is an original character, and he's easily the scariest (and the most competent) Ghostface in fiction. Blight doesn't spit anything. His power revolves around dashing and bouncing off the environment. Players like to dub him as a "Living Pinball". The Trickster isn't from an anime. He's a sadistic K-Pop star, who likes to implement the screams of his victims into his music. That's not necessarily The Ring. DBD collaborated with the owners of Ringu, the original story from Japan, which America later adapted into a film called The Ring. So it's not Samara in DBD, it's Sadako. Yoichi is from the Ringu film, but he was a child in the film, and in DBD he's an adult. I feel like this is worth mentioning since the characters are quite different between the original Japanese story, and the American adaptation. Yeah, Knight can summon guards, but only one at a time. There's rumours that Alien will be the next chapter. Great reaction!
@@canadiangopnik7007 I was tryna think what the power could be, but maybe he could switch to his Golden Bonnie suit by going to a locker like the Huntress or Trickster
That video is such a great reminder that we are very lucky to have a game like this. The Community likes to complain a lot about different things, but in the end it is a great time to be alive for a horror fan.
So about the Oni mask being in two trailers, The Spirit came out first, her real name name is Rin Yamaoka. Then later The Oni, Kazan Yamaoka came out, he's like Rin's 5-great grandfather.
All DLCs except Stranger Things are still available in-game, so you can still play Silent Hill or Ghostface or whoever you desire. This game can be competitive, but I feel like unless you're trying to be competitive or play to win, it plays very chill and I highly recommend playing it! It's very addicting. We usually get a killer and survivor every 3 months, so there's always content too. Might I suggest Killer Moris (finisher animations) or Rift Trailers (Battlepass videos).
One thing is that this ghost face isn't any of the ghost face's from scream. The licensed the ghost face mask/costume and then used it to make an original killer. Which i think is very cool
@@SHSLBLAZE he's one of my favorite killers in the game. And i really like his lore. Before going into the fog (where the actual game takes place all the killers and survivors are abducted from different places amd times. It's also why can have ash William's running from albert whesker) He is a successful serial killer who stalks his prey for weeks. Learning there routine and then killing them in the most dramatic way possible. Only to go to his day job and write about the tragedy in the paper. After a few kills he packs up and continues his legacy in a new state at a new paper
Idk if you’ll see this but the shattered blood line and cursed legacy are connected the girl that appears behind the dude when he relights his lighter is the great granddaughter of the Oni, and they gave her a skin in game that makes her wear armor similar to her great grandfather
Funny for you to mention the blood mask for ghost face, as they added that as a cosmetic in a rift (this game’s version of a battle pass) not to long ago, and it’s also animated with blood dripping down.
i'm cheesing so hard watching your reactions to these, especially the licenses you're familiar with. i'm a big weenie about horror media so i've to this day never seen a lot of the popular movies that were licensed into the game and it's so sweet to see someone who loves them get excited about the trailers. i see by your pinned comment that you've played now - i hope it was a good experience for you
Neat thing about the Spirit and the Oni is that their real names (All the kills have real names if you look into their lore) is Rin Yamaoka (spirit) and Kazan Yamaoka (Oni) They are related by.....I think it was 700+ years? I know Kazan was from the end of Feudal Japan and Rin is more in the modern era.
If you pay attention, you can see the trappers traps and disarm them. The wraith isn't totally invisible, there's a little shimmer you can see to get away from him. You can also use a flashlight to burn him out of invisibility. The hillbilly can chainsaw really fast, but he can't really turn, so you could try to dodge to the side. The nurse is slow, and can only blink a few times before she has to recharge. Michael Myers is difficult to play against. He's slow, but he's stealthy as hell. The hag places traps around the map that she can teleport to. You can crouch over them so they don't go off, and you can make them disappear with a flashlight. The doctor puts out large fields of electricity that can stun you and make things difficult to do. The only counter is to stay away from him. (You CAN still play as bill) The huntress' hatchets are brutal, but she only gets a few, and she has to reload. A good huntress can hit you from across the map. Leatherface is pretty slow but the chainsaw has a lot of mobility. It's rough sometimes. Nobody really uses Freddy anymore, but he can create fake pallets and turn invisible. Pig is a stealthy killer, and she can ambush and come out of seemingly nowhere. Her traps activate after a Gen is done, you can try to take them off but if you're too slow, it's bye-bye. The clown can zone you by throwing chemical bottles to disorient you. The best counter is just running in a straight line. The oni collects blood after he hits you. If he powers up, he can move really fast and insta down you. The spirit can phase and move quickly and invisible, but when she phases, there's a sound you can listen to to kind of tell where she is, and she can't see you she can only hear. Legion is really powerful when survivors group together, if you split up there's a lot of counterplay. And legion is just a normal dude, he doesn't really have any supernatural powers. Plague can throw up on stuff to make survivors sick, or just throw up on survivors themselves. Her big power is to hurt them with the vomit instead of making them sick. Ghostface is stealthy as fuck and can stalk survivors to make them go down in one hit. A survivor can look at him and bring him out of stealth, but it takes a few seconds. Demogorgon sets up portals and can travel the entire map by digging through the portals. He's the only licensed killer you can't buy anymore, but if you had him before the DLC went away, you can still play him. Deathslinger is a ranged killer that can drag survivors to him to hit them again. Pretty badass. Pyramid head has a pretty decent range attack, but he can also put down traps that the survivors can walk through. Blight is incredibly fast, and bounces off walls to change directions. There's not much counterplay aside from staying away from open spaces and watching your corners. The twins are another one nobody really uses. But it's basically playing as two killers, you can switch between them. But if you miss an attack from Victor, a survivor can smash him. Eventually, he comes back, tho. The Trickster has very quick ranged attacks and has to reload occasionally. The counterplay is staying behind cover but that's about it. Nemesis has two zombies that walk around the map and make things difficult for survivors. He has a heavy attack, and a decent ranged attack. You CAN play as Leon, Jill, claire, and chris. They added Ada when they gave us Wesker. Pinhead is slow, but he can use his chains to make a survivor slow down while they try to break the chains. The artist can place birds that can travel the whole map, they usually don't insure you unless she hits you twice. They're more for information. The onryo can teleport the map through tvs, but the survivors can turn the tvs off for a short time. The dredge is the first killer that makes survivors avoid lockers. He can teleport around the map inside lockers, which is kinda crazy. If you watch for the locker shaking, you can get away, though. Wesker is POWERFUL. He's quick, he's agile, and he's a sassy little bitch. The knight is okay, but it isn't the best. He can place basically a ghost knight, which will chase you for a few seconds. The counterplay is just run in a straight line. The skull merchant can place drones that tell her if survivors are in the radius, and if they stay in the radius long enough she can track their exact location for a short time. Counterplay = run.
I don't know if someone has already said this but you should totally react to the moris for the killers. Moris are offerings killers use that they can do a special animation on surviors.
The other girl you didn’t know for the second resident evil dlc is Rebecca chambers, she’s the protagonist in RE 0 and a side character in RE 1 and I think a few other games I can’t remember. She was the youngest member of S.T.A.R.S. Being only 18 in the first two games I named above.
A fun fact: the survivor in the trapper (1st video) is the same survivor as the one in the hillybilly (3rd video) clip. They mixed up some of the races of survivors early on but she was already in the game trailer. To your point about diversity, Dead by Daylight has a lot of representation which is cool.
Im playing DBD on a regular basis. Your video was recommended to me and I just clicked on it for fun, I was so curious how someone would react to all the trailers and your hype hyped me as well!!!! :D Even I know all the killers and stuff, you gave me new hype and enthusiasm to keep playing! Thanks for your so genuine, fun to watch and honest reactions
As a 100% Mikey main, he's definitely in the game. Unfortunately, unless you're going for jump scare Myers, he's very weak in the game :( but I still love him
A lot of characters such as Bill, Amanda Young, Tapp, and even some original characters were taken by the Entity before they would have died. If you’re looking for lore related content on characters, Pixel Bush and Ahzymovs are great channels to check out! For informative gameplay content, not Otzdarva is hands down the best recommendation :) DBD has taken a turn toward competitive play recently. It’s in a really weird spot right now with its rank system but, if you’re just looking to have fun, custom kill your friends matches are the way to go. It gives you access to all the perks and items so you can play around with builds, see what you like, what works best for your play style before you dunk your blood points (in game currency) into whatever character said perks are tied to. Each character comes with 3 unique perks lol so there are A LOT of different perks in the game.
I’m impressed with your knowledge of all these horror characters. But that’s probably because most reactions I see to DBD trailers aren’t even really into horror like that. Great reaction 👍
Im probably late but I hope you can see this. Honestly when you play killer you can be very chill. You don't have to be competitive and kill the survivors. You can hunt them a bit get some hits and downs but ultimately when it's time to actually kill them you can let them go. This is what I do most of the times and its amazing.
Going to answer or give some precisions to a few of your comments: 3:32 Not only one of the first killers but actually the very first killer in the game, the mascott of the whole thing. Fun fact: His character won an award for "Best original character" at the Canadian Game awards and got a free mask with Mapple leaf symbol in the game to celebrate. 4:30 Yes it is. Survivors see in 3rd person but killers do in first. Also yes, this particular killer, name's The Wraith, can turn invisible by ringing a bell. The seconds killer added in the game and he was the first of the "stealthy" category of killers. While I'm on the subject, all the trailers are in chronological order, not out of order so yeah, Wraith is the second killer ever added and so on. 5:25 They all move faster than survivors, all killers (except one) but yeah Hillbilly, that's this killer's name, is notorious for his speed. 5:40 You escape that by many ways, when Hillbilly uses his chainsaw he moves faster yes but at the cost of his maniability, he turns slower, have trouble with walls and sharp angles so that's how you avoid him. Also yes the Chainsaw was indeed his special ability, all killers have a basic attack but also a power they can use, Trapper can put bear traps on the ground, Wraith can turn invisible and silent and Hillbilly, runs fast as fuck with a Chainsaw. 6:50 Remember what I said about every killer moving faster than survivors except one ? That's the one, the Nurse. She moves slower than survivors but she have the ability to teleport instead, allowing her to phase through walls and shit and easily catch up to survivors of course. That power is simple but it allowed her to be the undisputed strongest killer in the game by far, even to this day (she came out in 2016...) 7:16 Yes it is, first licensed killer in the game, his power is staring at people... No really he stare at survivors with his "stalk" ability which allow him to buff himself, faster, stronger... You name it. 8:49 The Hag, her power is placing traps on the ground which allow her to teleport to it if a survivor triggers it by passing near it. 10:19 His power is shocking survivors to make them go mad which allow him to gain time and spot them more easily since they scream randomly and it screw up with their ability to fix generators and all. He's inspired by a real life person by the way, a chinese doctor who tried to cure video game addiction with, you name it, electroshocks. Which is why the new survivor with this chapter, Feng Min, was a chinese professional e-sport competitor. 12:15 Huntress, she sings a russian lullaby and her power is throwing hatchets. That's it, simple but effective. 12:49 Fun fact, leatherface was added eventually but before that, Hillbilly was basically the "de facto" Leatherface hommage since they didn't have the licensing rights back then to use Leatherface in the game, they both have a chainsaw but their powers are very different with the way they use it. 13:20 Yes it's Freddy but it's the reboot one, not the classic one played by Robert Englund. 14:30 Simple popularity, the first license with Halloween made the game's popularity jump through the roof, the more popular DbD got, the more trustworthy it became in it's way to handle licenses, which is why it got so many so early. 14:55 Super Slash Bros ? 16:20 Fun fact, one of the Clown's perks in the game is called "Coulrophobia" which is the phobia... Of clowns. 18:07 Most misleading trailer ever, it imply that his ability is hiding among survivors (which was a highly requested ability at the time) but his actual in game power is "running really fast and stabbing people" 21:00 Fun fact about this Ghostface, Behaviour managed to get the rights to use the Mask of Ghost and not the actual character which allowed to create their own version of Ghostface who's extremely different from the one in the movies which fit with the whole gimmick of the killer always being a different person. Also his power all him to crouch and teabag people which is funny as fuck. 24:18 Fun fact, this killer right here, the Oni, is the ancestor of the spirit (the killer in the Shattered Bloodline trailer you see at 17:40). The spirit's real name being Rin Yamaoka and the Oni being Kazan Yamaoka. 25:13 Deathslinger, his power is GUN. 29:45 They got resident Evil, TWICE my guy. 32:59 New survivor, mostly here to introduce a new mechanic for survivors to use. 35:45 That's a whole town worth of people in a single killer. 38:10 That's exactly what it is, the first Knight is the killer and his ability is summoning the other 3.
The mask with the blood pump for Ghostface you had as a kid is also in the game as a cosmetic from his recent season pass ahahah (Characters have seasons dedicated to them and Ghostface recently had one with a lot of iconic masks you could purchase irl) The company that created the ghostface mask also created NEW DBD themed masks
The girl you don't know is Rebecca Chambers who appeared in both RE0 and RE1. My girl has not been in another game in a long while but she was part of Stars. One of the youngest members having been recruited at the age of 18 after graduating university and is a super genius plus the medic of the group. After the events of RE1, she left Raccoon City to reattend University to get a few more degrees. She does appear in the animated movies plus some theater script plays.
You put it perfectly, this game is smash bros for horror. All of the limcases are still in the game expect sadly Stranger Things because Netflix cut the lincase for some reason no one knows the details but from what we know the devs are trying to get it back
Mr. Daddy Myers is still in the game to this day actually every single one you see is still there, except for Stranger Things. The map got taken out but the people that bought thee killer and survivers still have them.
If you didn't catch on, this video wasn't only trailers, but teasers as well. Like Saw, The Spirit and The Oni got teased without being named, along with others. Edit: also I have no idea how you don't like Ringu. It's one of the few horror movies I've watched and I am absolutely crazy about it! It's so good!
Don't get me wrong, I love the game, but some people do play as if you have their family hostage or something. Only thing scary about it is the jump scares with stealth killers. And specifically one of the Huntresses skins has a spooky lullaby. I use my time in game nowadays trying to flirt with killers. 😂 Edit: I still think the trailer for Ghostface is the best one they ever did. Makes me laugh still. I love playing as Ghostface. All licensed chapters are still available except Stranger Things.
Play the tutorial first, to understand the mechanics. Every killer has an ability unique to them, besides a basic right hand swing. Non licensed killers, and survivors can be bought with in game currency. The next chapter is expected to change a few things. You can also play custom games with up to 5 people or add bots
Idk why but seeing your sheer delight at some of these collabs is so oddly wholesome (I just like when people geek out over their favorite horror characters being included in something) ^u^
I'm curious if you'll do a reaction to the different chase themes and maybe even make a tier list on what you think is the best. It would be a pretty neat idea!
Definitely dont let how competitive the game can be turn you off, I always play as ghostface and I can tell I'm the worst at playing him but I still have fun even if I only get 1 kill same goes with survivor, The chances of me ever not having fun at all is very low even if I do absolutely horrible.
Each killer and survivor all have quite in-depth lore explanations ingame on their profile pages, about a couple paragraphs long each. Id definetly reccomend checking them out if youre interested, theyre actually quite cool (except for the most recent dlc alot of ppl were dissapointed by that ones story and lore connections lol)
First TF2 and now DBD!?! ARE YOU IN LOVE WITH ME OR SOMETHING!? Jokes aside I cant believe you are reacting to two of my fav games and in such short period of time! Love it !
The Resident Evil girl you didn’t recognize is Rebecca Chambers: she was a field medic with Stars and the sole survivor of team bravo. Albert Wesker also has a photograph of her wearing a green sports bra and gym shorts that he keeps hidden in his desk, which you can find by searching through it in Resident Evil 2.
Haven't played this in years, super toxic player base. Love the trailers and lore, though, so I like keeping up with those. Btw, have you heard if a game called Identity V? It's from some of the same devs and has nearly identical gameplay with a "Coraline" aesthetic. I mention it because they've had limited run crossover events with Danganronpa and a few characters are cosmetic skins in it. Specifically, survivor skins for Makoto, Kyoko, Junko, Mikan, Nagito, Chiaki and Hajime as well as a killer skin for Monokuma.
They root the trailers in the lore most of the time especially with original killers. So the reason Legion (Frank in the trailer) is called Legion and looked like they could disguise themselves was because they were showcasing the killer as just a normal person that's a serial killer and that one person is actually a group of people who you can choose through the cosmetics. Their power is really just smacky smack and run fast. Edit - Fun fact about Skull Merchant: She was supposed to be Predator but the owners pulled out of the licensing.
Yeah, the last bit just isn't true. The rumor of tools of torment being a licensed chapter started around the time the teaser dropped, but people came up with the theory that SM was a failed predator killer only because they weren't happy with the end result. There was zero indication that this chapter was a predator chapter, and if it was we'd probably have known WAY in advance because that's what behavior does with their licensed content now (ringu, hellraiser, project w).
fun little fact if nobody said it already, but the the ghost who u thought was the grudge, is actually the Oni's descendant, he's like her great great great grandfather I believe, and their chapter names have meaning behind it. Shattered Bloodline and cursed legacy respectfully. As the Oni,real Name Kazan Yamaoka, is responsible for the infamy surrounding the Yamaoka name, as he went on a killing spree to anyone he thought disrespected his family's legacy and way of the samurai. This caused the entity(the being who takes people) to take a liking to the bloodline and basically cursed it. Manipulated and possessed Rin Yamaoka's(the grudge lookin lady) father, causing him to kill his wife and hack his daughter to pieces, the father was gonna basically be a killer until the entity seen the hatred and vengeance in Rin's soul and took her instead. The lore connects a lot of killers and survivors together.
If I were to try to pitch any other licensed killers, I'd try: Predator, from Predator Xenomorph, from Alien Ruvik or Laura, from The Evil Within The Red Nun, from Remothered Hisako Yao, from Siren Mary Shaw, from Dead Silence
I know this video was made a couple months ago but they have a "Custom Match" mode that now makes it so you can play against bots which are easy enough to beat and have fun with the game but still give you enough difficulty that if you don't keep up a match will slip away from you as killer. It doesn't grant any actual progression in terms of leveling up or gaining blood points but you really only need those if you play competitively anyway, It's a nice alternative for people like me who also just want some casual matches from time to time. You can also just play with friends or play with friends and bots at the same time in case you don't have enough people to fill a lobby.
Just watching this now, and yeah "Smash Brothers of Horror" is a good description. 🙂 By the way, you were wondering at the end what other licenses they could get - the latest chapter they just added a month or two ago is Alien. 😉
Further about the Left 4 Dead chapter: Yes, Bill is in the game, and then there is also the outfits of the other characters from Left 4 Dead that the original 4 survivors can wear. So while they aren't truly in the game like Bill, they kind of are as you can wear their clothes. Also, I am a Pig main myself. I love her. When they did the SAW Rift (like a battle pass as other games call it) they added her outfit from the first movie including her old trap on her head instead of the pig mask. It's such a great outfit. It's in the store now for those that didn't get it "Free" from the Rift (The way Rifts work is they cost like 1000 premium currency, but if you complete it you get the entire 1000 currency back.) I also play Legion (my favorite is Susie. Legion is actually 4 killers, which one you play depends on the skin you are wearing. Frank Morrison, Julie Kostenko, Susie Lavoie and Joey (Joey's last name has not been revealed yet.) which doesn't actually disguise themselves like the trailer suggests.
@@locatis58 no, it’s a false rumour form what I see, I think it’s using the same logic for why Demo was removed but as the developers said Bubba isn’t going awta
Leatherface isnt leaving. beheavor made that a fake leak with a bunch of other fake leaks to circulate inside the company so they could catch who WAS leaking actual information and they found them. Company's do this all the time.
as of now (august 2024) the killers consist of: licensed killers: The shape (michael myers) The cannibal (leatherface) The nightmare (freddy krueger) The pig (amanda from saw) The ghost face The demogorgon The executioner (pyramid head) The nemesis The mastermind (wesker) The cenobite (pinhead) The onryō (from the ring) The xenomorph (from alien) The good guy (chucky) and lastly The lich (vecna from d&d) we also know we are getting a castlevania chapter but they have not revealed who the killer is going to be og killers: The trapper The wraith The hillbilly The nurse The hag The doctor The huntress The clown The spirit The legion (who is actually four ppl. you can choose which of these four members to play as) The plague The oni The deathslinger The blight The twins The trickster (who isnt actually from an anime. the character is a kpop star/ mvrderer lol) The artist The dredge The knight The skull merchant The singularity and lastly The unknown i think i got everyone lol 😅
Fun fact: in the penny wise trailer in DBD the voice actor in the background it no longer then dead meat aka James a jassie he was voicing in the background
Most of the licensed character's are not available anymore, but anyone who bought them can still play as them + all the licensed perks from those survivors/killers become normal perks that are automatically unlocked for everyone.
When I first played the game I said the same thing as you: How did I not played this before? At one point I was hyped on Sadako, but the price was too high. Been playing for a month now and brother, I am even dreaming that I'm playing the game, fr. It's tons of fun.
37:38 Before this chapter with The Knight was released, dbd had a crossover with the game "For Honor", but it was limited with small events. Everyone were hyped about knight killer and we kinda got it. About The Oni and The Spirit killers - they are from the same Yamaoka family. Oni is like Spirit's grandgrand-smth-grandfather. That's why in their trailers they are showing the same house and oni mask. Plus Spirit's DLC called "shattered bloodline" because in lore her father went insane and slaughtered both spirit and her mother (her screams are heard at the start of the trailer). The entity took the girl bc it liked Spirit's hatred and rage after what happened to her. DBD also had crossovers (usually events or characters cosmetics) with PUBG, mordeo, attack on titan and some others. All licenced dlc's are still available in game except Stranger things.
Resident evil has the most characters in dead by daylight. They have: Leon S. Kennedy Jill Valentine Chris Redfield Claire Redfield Ada Wong Rebecca Chambers Sheva Alomar Carlos Oliviera The Nemises Albert Wesker H.U.N.K William Birkin

When you play as Nemesis, you also get two zombies that go around the map chasing the survivors or you can kill them to improve yourself, they respawn, very fun to play, bit hard tho. As for the Knight, that was a collab with For Honor from Ubisoft, don't know much about his power tho, I know he can summon those guys to help him.
OMG first of all thank you for reacting to this. DBD has kind of been dying recently due to the lack of creativity from the developers and the community being kind of,, awful. BUT it doesn’t take away the fact that this game is super cool with a great concept and the killers and survivors deserve attention along with the lore. It’s worth your time to play! Sidenote; I have that exact same shirt, gifted to me by my partner. We’re twins… Oh also the only licensed killer that we don’t have anymore is Demogorgon from Stranger Things (Steve and Nancy, too) Everyone else’s licenses are continually renewed.
So this game has actually had one anime collab which wasn't featured in this video as it was a skin pack, and that's with Attack on Titan. It has the Armored Titan as a skin for The Oni and the Warhammer Titan for The Spirit. There's also skins for a couple of the Survivors like Mikasa for Yui (biker girl from The Oni DLC) or Eren for Dwight (nerd with glasses in a few of the trailers). They also get Attack on Titan themed remixes of the Dead by Daylight OST when you play as them too. In terms of other cosmetics Cheryl Mason has skins that turn her into other Silent Hill characters like James Sunderland from SH2, similarly the Resident Evil characters get skins like Chris Redfield for Leon or Sheva for Jill. And finally Ghost Face (who as others have mentioned is technically a new character) gets all kinds of outfits based off real Ghostface masks you can buy irl including his Scream cloak and mask. He also got the Scary Movie "wassup" mask in a battle pass and unlike other games battle pass skins become store items after a year or less, so even though you missed the mask you can just wait for it. Other than that all skins I've mentioned are still in the game and purchasable. This game has issues, but as someone who wasn't into horror growing up (the only franchise I had real experience with was Left 4 Dead which I loved as a kid) it got me into stuff like Silent Hill, SAW and Attack on Titan which I adore now. It's definitely a love letter to these franchises like Smash Bros.
I don't know if you've played yet, but I'm the same as you and this is the only "competitive" game that the community is ACTUALLY not that competitive, there are a lot of instances where everyone helps each other out killers to help survivors in some cases, survivors can help killers with challenges and stuff. Everyone almost in this community is really helpful and sweet. And it isn't difficult to figure out. The most daunting thing for people is the blood web, which is basically stuff that helps level up your survivors and characters and get new perks to help you out in a match. But after you hit level 50 on a character, you can auto-click after that for the blood web to grab things for you. Which is really helpful if you don't know what to get. I highly recommend giving it a chance, especially playing with friends!
OH MY GOD i had that mask too!! the one with the heart attached!! i still have it in my closet with the cloak, i dressed up as ghostface one year and accidentally ended up scaring the kids around the neighbourhood 😭
In case you're still wondering, none of the licensed killers or survivors are limited time. However, demigorgan, Steve Harrington, and nacy Wheeler have been removed. we now have xenomorph,along with the corresponding survivor and Nickolas cage, as a stand-alone survivor.
A lot of the killers (who aren’t licensed) are play ons of the actual Horror Movie Killers which is pretty cool, not all of them are play ons sometimes and are own creations from bvhr I believe too Also *Interesting Fact* : the Spirit (the ghost with the sword) and the Oni (demon red mask guy) are related, he’s her Great (many greats) grandfather
Watching this a little over a year later and I'm really curious about your take on the new killers they've added. Also, a little fun fact--a lot of the non-licensed killers are based on other things. If I heard right: like Blight is based on Jekyll/Hyde, Nurse is based on the nurses from Silent Hill, Clown is based on John Wayne Gacy, etc.
Fun fact: Pyramid Head had a bit of backlash after an update of the game. And that backlash was becauuuuuse they reduced the size of his ass. Yup! Pyramid Head was double cheeked up when he was first released but it got reduced and fans were pissed off. People be thirsty as hell for these killers!
If I remember the lore correctly Oni is Spirit's ancestor. They come from the same family/clan. it's why we see the mask in Spirit's trailer and why both of their chapters have references to either bloodline or legacy.
Hi! New watcher here! I heard you talk about the experience you had wacthing horror games till this point, and I think you would love playing Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Or even the newest title: The Bunker. It's got a lot of thought put into it, and the whole atmosphere of the game is very immersive.
I love how someone who's never played the game also recognized how bait and switch the trailer for The Legion was. Everyone immediately said the exact same thing. A completely new dynamic, not trusting your fellow survivors who you've always been able to trust. Then Behavior said "Nah, got eem" and gave us the Legion we all know. Still think it would be a cool concept even if it wouldn't fully work especially if it's against a 4 man SWF (Survive With Friends) who are all communicating. Also I just got to the Ghost Face part and BROOO I had the EXACT same Scream mask with the blood that pumped from the heart holy shit lmao
Holy shit. Just noticed you have a Tomie tatoo! That's crazy! Looks really cool. Also, I love your reactions! It's great to see a perspective from someone outside the community!
Edit - Reaction to the memento moris here: ruclips.net/video/vkSTAm3wFBk/видео.html
I play Dead By Daylight for the first time: ruclips.net/video/oWvC9oj1iX0/видео.html
Thanks for all the recommendations
Look up a channel called Pixel Brush. They have an entire Playlist of lore dives for the series, 63 episodes long ruclips.net/p/PLdRD_TPxW4MXTljiQZDrT14ThcGSxNMr3
Thats not easy, every killer has his own lore or backstory, I don't think there's a video with all the lore
By the way if you are going to play the game I recomend you to not take the game to seriously, there's Is a lot of toxicity in the comunity, the Best way to evade that it's just playing how you like It and ignore everithing else
Pixel brush does some pretty decent analysis of the different characters lore's and tome stories (tomes are dbd combo battle pass and way to tell more in-depth stories then there base lore does) and since licensed killers don't really get any lore he talks about how DBD adapted them into there game. And if they did a good or bad job
He also made a lore starter guide
Jason living in crystal lake
Fun fact: the Ghostface in dbd is not from scream, he has his own original story wich is actually really damn good, dude is probably one of the smartest ghostfaces. He makes articles and news of himself as if he was one of the main investigators against ghostface, and sets up cameras to "spy" on ghostface even tho it is himself, so he literally avoids suspiction by playing the strong smart detective, and by the end he reveals himself, escapes and then dissapears captured by the "ENTITY" nevet to be seen again.
I missed thousand of details and my english may not be that good, so i may have wrote some stuff weirdly or not correctly.
@@brunomunoz467 A good way to think of him is the reverse Spiderman.
I think i remember reading somewhere that it was part of the license agreement that they designed their own character. Since the point of ghostface was that he could be anyone.
@@Adameia_ That's because they signed the licensing agreement with Fun World who makes (and own the rights to) the Ghostface mask and not Spyglass Media Group who owns the Scream Franchise.
This means they are free to use Ghostface's image they can't use any backstories or characters from the Scream movies. Which personally is a plus rather than a negative. Let's the DBD team be creative which is where they shine since their original killers backstories are awesome.
@@LoneWanderer101 Yep, plus Fun World also made all new masks and outfits to coincide with the game, like Devil Face, Scorched Face, etc. All outfits in the game and also outfits they then made IRL. Also recently they added the Scary Movie mask (though it's not in the store yet, was in a RIft (Battle pass) and the bloody animated mask too! Also, I remember when Scream came out I was like OMG I have that mask! I'd had it for years.
DBD started as a horror themed cat and mouse/hide and seek game.
It very quickly evolved into horror themed competitive freeze tag
Still fun either way imo
@justvibing4796 honestly any killer you have never seen is scary as fuck
@@Trololo1121112 that's why I play ghost face and oni, game becomes jumpscare fest
If you're wondering why they are in the forest or in random places, it is because the killers and survivors were taken by an entity and put in a realm. That's not the full story, but a dbd lore lover can explain it better
Looks like a job for Pixel Bush!
The entity is a demonish creature that feeds of emotion, since the Dawn of humanity it would take people very rarely and take them to its realm where it forces the to do the trials (aka the games you actually play) which in turn create a lot of emotion for the entity to feed off of.
@Chainsawboy 23 Thank you 🙏
Zero escape fan in 2023? Love to see it
@Chainsawboy 23 not only does it feed on emotions but primarily on the pain and suffering of others
18:12 The Legion does not, in fact, disguise themselves as a survivor. They actually just run really fast with a knife.
I wouldn’t say “really” fast
@@kujikawathemeekmage3640 True mb
They run moderately quickly with a knife
Edit: They're only 6.0 at max speed. I could've sworn it was faster, this is kind of lame
@@glitchwraith yeah, for the longest time I was convinced legion didn’t even run faster in frenzy it was just a mind trick because the camera moved closer to the ground.
It’s funny because legion is not even a person they are more a group
@@bryanthernandez9769 Well yeah that’s what legion means.
Fun fact: the Ghostface is a very unique license in DBD. BHVR only bought license to the mask and created their own Scream-themed killer instead of buying license to Scream directly.
that's pretty smart
But his original outfit is in game
@@madkoont79 there is no license on a tattered robe
@@StarlyYakizawa oh I just thought the whole look of the “ghost face” is owned by scream.
@@madkoont79there were already scream masks before scream 1 was made
As you said, DBD started out as a small game and that's why you can see resemblance between the first few original killers and famous killers from media; like Trapper - Jason (mask covering the whole face, uses machete), Spirit - Sadako (both being grudge spirits coming back to life due to intense emotions) or the most obvious Hillbilly and Leatherface as they are nearly indistinguishable from each other
i always noticed that
Currently all of the licenses excepts Stranger Things are still available to get!
If you come across a Stranger Things character in game it's because they bought them before the license was removed.
Great video, I loved your reactions!!
Yeah, they're supposed to be bringing back the Stranger Things chapter with some new content but the licsense has been held up so its unclear if its scrapped or just delayed.
@@ComicBookBob that is just a rumour and not confirmed at all.
@@ComicBookBob Them bringing ST back is just a rumor and was never confirmed.
@@thejensonater4492 It's not really a baseless rumor. There was a new unfinished map from Stranger Things in the game's files with new models, textures and animations, and the devs have expressed the desire to bring it back and hinted on another chapter. The reason why they didn't is probably because Netflix refuses to renew the license
@@bobblinggoblin2g2g2g2 I’m sorry when have they hinted at another chapter? But what do you mean they didn’t renew the license, like yeah they literally had it removed of course they didn’t renew it. But if Netflix didn’t “renew the license” then they wouldn’t have started making the chapter at all, they aren’t gonna put time and effort into making something for a franchise if they don’t have access to the license yet because if they don’t end up getting it then they’ve just wasted their resources on something that will never see the light of day.
As for the unfinished map, it’s very possibly a hoax/fake etc. Remember the Vecna model that was totally 100% “found in the files” but ended up just being made by a guy who wanted to demonstrate his digital modelling skills that some other people lied about. It is very possible that it could be real, but it could equally be, if not more likely is a fake or just a fan concept.
You should look at the alternate cosmetics for some survivors:
For the Left for Dead chapter, the OG 4 (Dwight, Meg, Claudette, and Jake) have alternate costumes where they can dress up in the outfits of Ellis, Zoey, Rochelle, and Francis. They’re not changed to look exactly like them, but DbD has taken that approach to their other survivors.
For example with the first Resident Evil chapter, Leon and Jill are the two survivors you can play as but their alternate cosmetics from the store can change them to Claire and Chris.
Steve in the Stranger Things chapter can become Jonathan.
Cheryl can become Lisa Garland, Alessa Gillespie, Cybil Bennett, and James Sunderland.
I don’t know if it’ll ever be in the store or if it was a limited time offer in The Rift (DbD’s version of a battle pass) but players could unlock the Wassup mask from the Scary Movie franchise.
One of Pinhead’s costumes could change him to the Chatterer (the one cenobite that has no eyes and his teeth chatter)
And DbD has collaborated with other folks in the past for their costumes! They collaborated with Attack on Titan and some of the survivors have cosmetics inspired by the franchise (squad outfits) and I think the killer The Oni has a Titan costume. And if you’re familiar with the horror RUclips channel Crypt TV, their monsters have appeared as alternate costumes for three of DbD’s killers:
The Doctor can become The Look-See monster
The Hag can become The Birch Witch
The Huntress can become The Mordeo.
I’m excited to see even more collabs if they ever run out of liscenses to buy.
If you never bought the rift pass then I think you can buy the cosmetic later on I remember I never bought some outfit for Hillibilly like the milkman and there are a few item that you can buy on the store after the rift pass .
However, License Outfits such as Bill military outfit there was one time you can buy it yes the outfit was free on the rift pass but you can buy it and the Amanda and Tapp outfit you can buy it if there is a time limit they can return one point and Ghostface I don’t know when they will return
@@bryanthernandez9769 I’m hoping the Wassup mask for Ghostface and that galactic outfit for Feng Min will be added to the store one day soon. Didn’t get the chance to get them because of college.
@@dressiestsphinxsebastian125wassup mask I think I saw it in the item shop you can buy now
@@bryanthernandez9769 It is!
It's so refreshing to watch a reactor that actually knows his stuff.
he calls ghostface scream lol
@@brycexiong5711 he obviously knew, its his favourite horror series..
@Bryce Xiong that's what he's from tho ?
But he didn't know who Bruce Campbell was?
@@Cruddzoy he said he didn't like evil dead that much, obv he wouldn't know who Bruce Campbell is
"They must be running out of licensed killers." Little did he know they would also add the Alien and Chucky 😂 Great video man, you know your horror stuff!
In lore, Bill was taken to the realm right before he died in the L4D dlc.
You know the entity can revive you right even if you died you can be alive in the entity that because the entity gave you life look at Amanda I know it’s not cannon but there are a few such as the twins who are original characters from Behavior they are alive thanks to the entity Victor aka the little baby guy died before he went to the entity with Charlie aka Charlotte
@@bryanthernandez9769I think a better example of the entity reviving someone is Adam (I think that's his name), he was in the spirit chapter. In his lore it was said that he died during a train accident. Fun fact: in his trailer, he checked the back of his head and it showed blood, that was because of the train accident because he probably hit his head during the crash.
Same with the Twins Victor was suppose to be dead but was brought back because of the entity
Actually I have a theory. I don't really think it's Victor. The entity has proven that it can make its own creatures and own living beings. So maybe victor is just an entity made copy to make Charlotte hunt and hook survivors for emotions to feed on. Just a theory
So, the thing with the Oni mask is that the person who wore it was the Spirit's ancestor, a legendary samurai named Kazen. He was enraged and awoken when Rin's(the Spirit) father murdered her and her mother with the family sword, the same sword that he used long ago, and returned as an Oni to take vengeance on the father, but was instead kidnapped by an Entity.
Kazan was the father Rin couldn't have
I love that you've finally checked out DBD!
A few things:
Survivors can't outrun the killer, since the base speed of most of them is slightly faster than Survivors running speed.
Fortunately all of the licensed chapters are still playable, except Stranger Things.
However, people who bought the DLC can still play as the characters.
The Legion can't disguise as survivors. The Legion (in lore), is a group of Teens, who are full of rebellious spirit.
They were basically DBD's version of Ghostface before they got the licence.
Thier ability in-game is a chain hit-and-run power. They break out into a fast sprint, helping them catch up with survivors.
When they hit a survivor while running, they injure and inflict Deep Wound upon them.
Deep Wound is a timer, where if the survivor doesn't mend the wound, they will go into the dying state. (Timer doesn't decrease while in chase)
After inflicting Deep Wound, The Legion's power bar is refilled, and they can sense the location of nearby survivors, allowing them chain hits and maintain a lot of pressure. They're pretty fun.
On the topic of Ghostface, his inclusion is a unique one.
See, they didn't get the license for Scream, they got the license to use the Ghostface mask.
Scream doesn't own the Ghostface mask/costume. FunWorld does.
That's why there's no characters from Scream in DBD.
So Ghostface in DBD is an original character, and he's easily the scariest (and the most competent) Ghostface in fiction.
Blight doesn't spit anything. His power revolves around dashing and bouncing off the environment. Players like to dub him as a "Living Pinball".
The Trickster isn't from an anime. He's a sadistic K-Pop star, who likes to implement the screams of his victims into his music.
That's not necessarily The Ring.
DBD collaborated with the owners of Ringu, the original story from Japan, which America later adapted into a film called The Ring.
So it's not Samara in DBD, it's Sadako.
Yoichi is from the Ringu film, but he was a child in the film, and in DBD he's an adult.
I feel like this is worth mentioning since the characters are quite different between the original Japanese story, and the American adaptation.
Yeah, Knight can summon guards, but only one at a time.
There's rumours that Alien will be the next chapter.
Great reaction!
Another cool thing: The Spirit & The Oni are in the same family
god I hope the xenomorph is the next licensed killer
Springtrap or the Xenomorph could be interesting
@@silliusgooberus William's killer name better be The Man Behind the Slaughter
@@canadiangopnik7007 I was tryna think what the power could be, but maybe he could switch to his Golden Bonnie suit by going to a locker like the Huntress or Trickster
That video is such a great reminder that we are very lucky to have a game like this. The Community likes to complain a lot about different things, but in the end it is a great time to be alive for a horror fan.
I don’t think it’s complaining ( from what ive seen) like how developers respond to critism or fans asking them to fix certain things in a game.
Also I love how DBD did to horror icons what Super smash bros did to game characters. Kinda bringing them to same universe in a way
DBD is the Smash Bros of horror. Change my mind.
So about the Oni mask being in two trailers, The Spirit came out first, her real name name is Rin Yamaoka. Then later The Oni, Kazan Yamaoka came out, he's like Rin's 5-great grandfather.
All DLCs except Stranger Things are still available in-game, so you can still play Silent Hill or Ghostface or whoever you desire. This game can be competitive, but I feel like unless you're trying to be competitive or play to win, it plays very chill and I highly recommend playing it! It's very addicting. We usually get a killer and survivor every 3 months, so there's always content too.
Might I suggest Killer Moris (finisher animations) or Rift Trailers (Battlepass videos).
They got rid of Leatherface too im p sure
@@imtired927 They literally didn't, where did you get that info form?
@@imtired927 Leatherface is still in the game 😂
Unfortunately it's not the Robert England Freddy Krueger the newer one 2010 I think
Wish it would have been jigsaw Kramer killer though
Ah yes, the legion trailer. Everyone thought he would be able to camo as a survivor. But no, he simply runs fast. That's his power.
One thing is that this ghost face isn't any of the ghost face's from scream. The licensed the ghost face mask/costume and then used it to make an original killer. Which i think is very cool
That’s 100 times better
@@SHSLBLAZE he's one of my favorite killers in the game. And i really like his lore. Before going into the fog (where the actual game takes place all the killers and survivors are abducted from different places amd times. It's also why can have ash William's running from albert whesker) He is a successful serial killer who stalks his prey for weeks. Learning there routine and then killing them in the most dramatic way possible. Only to go to his day job and write about the tragedy in the paper. After a few kills he packs up and continues his legacy in a new state at a new paper
Idk if you’ll see this but the shattered blood line and cursed legacy are connected the girl that appears behind the dude when he relights his lighter is the great granddaughter of the Oni, and they gave her a skin in game that makes her wear armor similar to her great grandfather
Funny for you to mention the blood mask for ghost face, as they added that as a cosmetic in a rift (this game’s version of a battle pass) not to long ago, and it’s also animated with blood dripping down.
i'm cheesing so hard watching your reactions to these, especially the licenses you're familiar with. i'm a big weenie about horror media so i've to this day never seen a lot of the popular movies that were licensed into the game and it's so sweet to see someone who loves them get excited about the trailers. i see by your pinned comment that you've played now - i hope it was a good experience for you
seeing your reactions made me so happy, i love when people get introduced and get to see all the killers, your genuine excitement is just so wholesome
Neat thing about the Spirit and the Oni is that their real names (All the kills have real names if you look into their lore) is Rin Yamaoka (spirit) and Kazan Yamaoka (Oni) They are related by.....I think it was 700+ years? I know Kazan was from the end of Feudal Japan and Rin is more in the modern era.
If you pay attention, you can see the trappers traps and disarm them.
The wraith isn't totally invisible, there's a little shimmer you can see to get away from him. You can also use a flashlight to burn him out of invisibility.
The hillbilly can chainsaw really fast, but he can't really turn, so you could try to dodge to the side.
The nurse is slow, and can only blink a few times before she has to recharge.
Michael Myers is difficult to play against. He's slow, but he's stealthy as hell.
The hag places traps around the map that she can teleport to. You can crouch over them so they don't go off, and you can make them disappear with a flashlight.
The doctor puts out large fields of electricity that can stun you and make things difficult to do. The only counter is to stay away from him.
(You CAN still play as bill)
The huntress' hatchets are brutal, but she only gets a few, and she has to reload. A good huntress can hit you from across the map.
Leatherface is pretty slow but the chainsaw has a lot of mobility. It's rough sometimes.
Nobody really uses Freddy anymore, but he can create fake pallets and turn invisible.
Pig is a stealthy killer, and she can ambush and come out of seemingly nowhere. Her traps activate after a Gen is done, you can try to take them off but if you're too slow, it's bye-bye.
The clown can zone you by throwing chemical bottles to disorient you. The best counter is just running in a straight line.
The oni collects blood after he hits you. If he powers up, he can move really fast and insta down you.
The spirit can phase and move quickly and invisible, but when she phases, there's a sound you can listen to to kind of tell where she is, and she can't see you she can only hear.
Legion is really powerful when survivors group together, if you split up there's a lot of counterplay. And legion is just a normal dude, he doesn't really have any supernatural powers.
Plague can throw up on stuff to make survivors sick, or just throw up on survivors themselves. Her big power is to hurt them with the vomit instead of making them sick.
Ghostface is stealthy as fuck and can stalk survivors to make them go down in one hit. A survivor can look at him and bring him out of stealth, but it takes a few seconds.
Demogorgon sets up portals and can travel the entire map by digging through the portals. He's the only licensed killer you can't buy anymore, but if you had him before the DLC went away, you can still play him.
Deathslinger is a ranged killer that can drag survivors to him to hit them again. Pretty badass.
Pyramid head has a pretty decent range attack, but he can also put down traps that the survivors can walk through.
Blight is incredibly fast, and bounces off walls to change directions. There's not much counterplay aside from staying away from open spaces and watching your corners.
The twins are another one nobody really uses. But it's basically playing as two killers, you can switch between them. But if you miss an attack from Victor, a survivor can smash him. Eventually, he comes back, tho.
The Trickster has very quick ranged attacks and has to reload occasionally. The counterplay is staying behind cover but that's about it.
Nemesis has two zombies that walk around the map and make things difficult for survivors. He has a heavy attack, and a decent ranged attack. You CAN play as Leon, Jill, claire, and chris. They added Ada when they gave us Wesker.
Pinhead is slow, but he can use his chains to make a survivor slow down while they try to break the chains.
The artist can place birds that can travel the whole map, they usually don't insure you unless she hits you twice. They're more for information.
The onryo can teleport the map through tvs, but the survivors can turn the tvs off for a short time.
The dredge is the first killer that makes survivors avoid lockers. He can teleport around the map inside lockers, which is kinda crazy. If you watch for the locker shaking, you can get away, though.
Wesker is POWERFUL. He's quick, he's agile, and he's a sassy little bitch.
The knight is okay, but it isn't the best. He can place basically a ghost knight, which will chase you for a few seconds. The counterplay is just run in a straight line.
The skull merchant can place drones that tell her if survivors are in the radius, and if they stay in the radius long enough she can track their exact location for a short time. Counterplay = run.
It's weskin time
Also as a knight main, I completely agree with you lmao
I don't know if someone has already said this but you should totally react to the moris for the killers. Moris are offerings killers use that they can do a special animation on surviors.
I've played dead by daylight for over ten years and all the killers and survivors from every trailer are still there
The other girl you didn’t know for the second resident evil dlc is Rebecca chambers, she’s the protagonist in RE 0 and a side character in RE 1 and I think a few other games I can’t remember. She was the youngest member of S.T.A.R.S. Being only 18 in the first two games I named above.
A fun fact: the survivor in the trapper (1st video) is the same survivor as the one in the hillybilly (3rd video) clip. They mixed up some of the races of survivors early on but she was already in the game trailer.
To your point about diversity, Dead by Daylight has a lot of representation which is cool.
Im playing DBD on a regular basis. Your video was recommended to me and I just clicked on it for fun, I was so curious how someone would react to all the trailers and your hype hyped me as well!!!! :D Even I know all the killers and stuff, you gave me new hype and enthusiasm to keep playing! Thanks for your so genuine, fun to watch and honest reactions
They also have William Berkin and hunky as playable skins. They ain't their own killers but they are in the game
As a 100% Mikey main, he's definitely in the game. Unfortunately, unless you're going for jump scare Myers, he's very weak in the game :( but I still love him
A lot of characters such as Bill, Amanda Young, Tapp, and even some original characters were taken by the Entity before they would have died.
If you’re looking for lore related content on characters, Pixel Bush and Ahzymovs are great channels to check out!
For informative gameplay content, not Otzdarva is hands down the best recommendation :)
DBD has taken a turn toward competitive play recently. It’s in a really weird spot right now with its rank system but, if you’re just looking to have fun, custom kill your friends matches are the way to go. It gives you access to all the perks and items so you can play around with builds, see what you like, what works best for your play style before you dunk your blood points (in game currency) into whatever character said perks are tied to. Each character comes with 3 unique perks lol so there are A LOT of different perks in the game.
I’m impressed with your knowledge of all these horror characters. But that’s probably because most reactions I see to DBD trailers aren’t even really into horror like that. Great reaction 👍
Ah, Dead by Daylight, you beautiful yet buggy rage-inducing @$$ game.
Love to hate and hate to love lmaoo
Im probably late but I hope you can see this. Honestly when you play killer you can be very chill. You don't have to be competitive and kill the survivors. You can hunt them a bit get some hits and downs but ultimately when it's time to actually kill them you can let them go. This is what I do most of the times and its amazing.
I’m not a fan of DBD anymore but I do love your reactions.
Going to answer or give some precisions to a few of your comments:
3:32 Not only one of the first killers but actually the very first killer in the game, the mascott of the whole thing. Fun fact: His character won an award for "Best original character" at the Canadian Game awards and got a free mask with Mapple leaf symbol in the game to celebrate.
4:30 Yes it is. Survivors see in 3rd person but killers do in first. Also yes, this particular killer, name's The Wraith, can turn invisible by ringing a bell. The seconds killer added in the game and he was the first of the "stealthy" category of killers. While I'm on the subject, all the trailers are in chronological order, not out of order so yeah, Wraith is the second killer ever added and so on.
5:25 They all move faster than survivors, all killers (except one) but yeah Hillbilly, that's this killer's name, is notorious for his speed.
5:40 You escape that by many ways, when Hillbilly uses his chainsaw he moves faster yes but at the cost of his maniability, he turns slower, have trouble with walls and sharp angles so that's how you avoid him. Also yes the Chainsaw was indeed his special ability, all killers have a basic attack but also a power they can use, Trapper can put bear traps on the ground, Wraith can turn invisible and silent and Hillbilly, runs fast as fuck with a Chainsaw.
6:50 Remember what I said about every killer moving faster than survivors except one ? That's the one, the Nurse. She moves slower than survivors but she have the ability to teleport instead, allowing her to phase through walls and shit and easily catch up to survivors of course. That power is simple but it allowed her to be the undisputed strongest killer in the game by far, even to this day (she came out in 2016...)
7:16 Yes it is, first licensed killer in the game, his power is staring at people... No really he stare at survivors with his "stalk" ability which allow him to buff himself, faster, stronger... You name it.
8:49 The Hag, her power is placing traps on the ground which allow her to teleport to it if a survivor triggers it by passing near it.
10:19 His power is shocking survivors to make them go mad which allow him to gain time and spot them more easily since they scream randomly and it screw up with their ability to fix generators and all. He's inspired by a real life person by the way, a chinese doctor who tried to cure video game addiction with, you name it, electroshocks. Which is why the new survivor with this chapter, Feng Min, was a chinese professional e-sport competitor.
12:15 Huntress, she sings a russian lullaby and her power is throwing hatchets. That's it, simple but effective.
12:49 Fun fact, leatherface was added eventually but before that, Hillbilly was basically the "de facto" Leatherface hommage since they didn't have the licensing rights back then to use Leatherface in the game, they both have a chainsaw but their powers are very different with the way they use it.
13:20 Yes it's Freddy but it's the reboot one, not the classic one played by Robert Englund.
14:30 Simple popularity, the first license with Halloween made the game's popularity jump through the roof, the more popular DbD got, the more trustworthy it became in it's way to handle licenses, which is why it got so many so early.
14:55 Super Slash Bros ?
16:20 Fun fact, one of the Clown's perks in the game is called "Coulrophobia" which is the phobia... Of clowns.
18:07 Most misleading trailer ever, it imply that his ability is hiding among survivors (which was a highly requested ability at the time) but his actual in game power is "running really fast and stabbing people"
21:00 Fun fact about this Ghostface, Behaviour managed to get the rights to use the Mask of Ghost and not the actual character which allowed to create their own version of Ghostface who's extremely different from the one in the movies which fit with the whole gimmick of the killer always being a different person. Also his power all him to crouch and teabag people which is funny as fuck.
24:18 Fun fact, this killer right here, the Oni, is the ancestor of the spirit (the killer in the Shattered Bloodline trailer you see at 17:40). The spirit's real name being Rin Yamaoka and the Oni being Kazan Yamaoka.
25:13 Deathslinger, his power is GUN.
29:45 They got resident Evil, TWICE my guy.
32:59 New survivor, mostly here to introduce a new mechanic for survivors to use.
35:45 That's a whole town worth of people in a single killer.
38:10 That's exactly what it is, the first Knight is the killer and his ability is summoning the other 3.
The mask with the blood pump for Ghostface you had as a kid is also in the game as a cosmetic from his recent season pass ahahah (Characters have seasons dedicated to them and Ghostface recently had one with a lot of iconic masks you could purchase irl)
The company that created the ghostface mask also created NEW DBD themed masks
The girl you don't know is Rebecca Chambers who appeared in both RE0 and RE1. My girl has not been in another game in a long while but she was part of Stars. One of the youngest members having been recruited at the age of 18 after graduating university and is a super genius plus the medic of the group. After the events of RE1, she left Raccoon City to reattend University to get a few more degrees. She does appear in the animated movies plus some theater script plays.
You put it perfectly, this game is smash bros for horror. All of the limcases are still in the game expect sadly Stranger Things because Netflix cut the lincase for some reason no one knows the details but from what we know the devs are trying to get it back
8:13 fun fact every license is alive till this day except for stranger things that went out BUT it came back not long ago
Just recently found your reactions, but already I love your personality and reactions! Keep up the great work.
Mr. Daddy Myers is still in the game to this day
actually every single one you see is still there, except for Stranger Things. The map got taken out but the people that bought thee killer and survivers still have them.
Honestly if you've seen the general thoughts of the playerbase lately: It's a good thing you like Skull Merchant.
Somebody has to.
If you didn't catch on, this video wasn't only trailers, but teasers as well. Like Saw, The Spirit and The Oni got teased without being named, along with others.
Edit: also I have no idea how you don't like Ringu. It's one of the few horror movies I've watched and I am absolutely crazy about it! It's so good!
Don't get me wrong, I love the game, but some people do play as if you have their family hostage or something. Only thing scary about it is the jump scares with stealth killers. And specifically one of the Huntresses skins has a spooky lullaby. I use my time in game nowadays trying to flirt with killers. 😂
Edit: I still think the trailer for Ghostface is the best one they ever did. Makes me laugh still. I love playing as Ghostface. All licensed chapters are still available except Stranger Things.
Blaze: they didn’t have a lot of places to hide
Corner tech: you sure about that?
Play the tutorial first, to understand the mechanics. Every killer has an ability unique to them, besides a basic right hand swing. Non licensed killers, and survivors can be bought with in game currency. The next chapter is expected to change a few things.
You can also play custom games with up to 5 people or add bots
Idk why but seeing your sheer delight at some of these collabs is so oddly wholesome (I just like when people geek out over their favorite horror characters being included in something) ^u^
I'm curious if you'll do a reaction to the different chase themes and maybe even make a tier list on what you think is the best. It would be a pretty neat idea!
What I'd love to see is your reaction to every killer's chase music
Definitely dont let how competitive the game can be turn you off, I always play as ghostface and I can tell I'm the worst at playing him but I still have fun even if I only get 1 kill same goes with survivor, The chances of me ever not having fun at all is very low even if I do absolutely horrible.
this dude reacting like they just came out and he’s watching as a dbd fan i love this 😭
Each killer and survivor all have quite in-depth lore explanations ingame on their profile pages, about a couple paragraphs long each. Id definetly reccomend checking them out if youre interested, theyre actually quite cool (except for the most recent dlc alot of ppl were dissapointed by that ones story and lore connections lol)
Fun Fact: Licensed DLC’s will never be removed according to the DBD devs! That’s not their plan.
Sorry i’m kind of new to DBD… what does DLC stand for?

First TF2 and now DBD!?! ARE YOU IN LOVE WITH ME OR SOMETHING!? Jokes aside I cant believe you are reacting to two of my fav games and in such short period of time! Love it !
Dead by Daylight has since acquired licenses for Chucky, Alan Wake, Alien, and Nicholas Cage
The huntress was so damn cool the way she hums her lullaby when she's close to u. But Michael still is the scariest in my opinion
Looking like you just ate some honey combs before making that thumbnail I love it 😂 great video man!
Him: says that Silent Hill is his favorite game and Scream is his favorite movie.
Me: eagerly waiting for him to see Ghostface and Pyramid Head.
Seeing someone get so excited to see killers in this game makes me so happy. Your reactions are great!
The Resident Evil girl you didn’t recognize is Rebecca Chambers: she was a field medic with Stars and the sole survivor of team bravo. Albert Wesker also has a photograph of her wearing a green sports bra and gym shorts that he keeps hidden in his desk, which you can find by searching through it in Resident Evil 2.
Haven't played this in years, super toxic player base. Love the trailers and lore, though, so I like keeping up with those.
Btw, have you heard if a game called Identity V? It's from some of the same devs and has nearly identical gameplay with a "Coraline" aesthetic. I mention it because they've had limited run crossover events with Danganronpa and a few characters are cosmetic skins in it. Specifically, survivor skins for Makoto, Kyoko, Junko, Mikan, Nagito, Chiaki and Hajime as well as a killer skin for Monokuma.
omg LOL I love your reactions sm! so refreshing to see them from a horror fan who's never played dbd before hehe
They root the trailers in the lore most of the time especially with original killers. So the reason Legion (Frank in the trailer) is called Legion and looked like they could disguise themselves was because they were showcasing the killer as just a normal person that's a serial killer and that one person is actually a group of people who you can choose through the cosmetics. Their power is really just smacky smack and run fast.
Edit - Fun fact about Skull Merchant: She was supposed to be Predator but the owners pulled out of the licensing.
Yeah, the last bit just isn't true. The rumor of tools of torment being a licensed chapter started around the time the teaser dropped, but people came up with the theory that SM was a failed predator killer only because they weren't happy with the end result. There was zero indication that this chapter was a predator chapter, and if it was we'd probably have known WAY in advance because that's what behavior does with their licensed content now (ringu, hellraiser, project w).
fun little fact if nobody said it already, but the the ghost who u thought was the grudge, is actually the Oni's descendant, he's like her great great great grandfather I believe, and their chapter names have meaning behind it. Shattered Bloodline and cursed legacy respectfully. As the Oni,real Name Kazan Yamaoka, is responsible for the infamy surrounding the Yamaoka name, as he went on a killing spree to anyone he thought disrespected his family's legacy and way of the samurai. This caused the entity(the being who takes people) to take a liking to the bloodline and basically cursed it. Manipulated and possessed Rin Yamaoka's(the grudge lookin lady) father, causing him to kill his wife and hack his daughter to pieces, the father was gonna basically be a killer until the entity seen the hatred and vengeance in Rin's soul and took her instead. The lore connects a lot of killers and survivors together.
If I were to try to pitch any other licensed killers, I'd try:
Predator, from Predator
Xenomorph, from Alien
Ruvik or Laura, from The Evil Within
The Red Nun, from Remothered
Hisako Yao, from Siren
Mary Shaw, from Dead Silence
Mr. X is missing from Resident Evil
Jason from Friday the 13th
@@nightstorm5914 Jason definitely won’t happen though because they can’t even license him for his own game
Pretty sure they have xenomorph now :)
Laura from Evil Within would be SOOOOOOOO fucking sick.
I know this video was made a couple months ago but they have a "Custom Match" mode that now makes it so you can play against bots which are easy enough to beat and have fun with the game but still give you enough difficulty that if you don't keep up a match will slip away from you as killer. It doesn't grant any actual progression in terms of leveling up or gaining blood points but you really only need those if you play competitively anyway, It's a nice alternative for people like me who also just want some casual matches from time to time. You can also just play with friends or play with friends and bots at the same time in case you don't have enough people to fill a lobby.
Hey SHL you can still play as ghostface by the way and I love the movie and show as well like guessing who may be ghostface is just a mystery
Just watching this now, and yeah "Smash Brothers of Horror" is a good description. 🙂
By the way, you were wondering at the end what other licenses they could get - the latest chapter they just added a month or two ago is Alien. 😉
His reaction is so honest, love it
Further about the Left 4 Dead chapter: Yes, Bill is in the game, and then there is also the outfits of the other characters from Left 4 Dead that the original 4 survivors can wear. So while they aren't truly in the game like Bill, they kind of are as you can wear their clothes.
Also, I am a Pig main myself. I love her. When they did the SAW Rift (like a battle pass as other games call it) they added her outfit from the first movie including her old trap on her head instead of the pig mask. It's such a great outfit. It's in the store now for those that didn't get it "Free" from the Rift (The way Rifts work is they cost like 1000 premium currency, but if you complete it you get the entire 1000 currency back.)
I also play Legion (my favorite is Susie. Legion is actually 4 killers, which one you play depends on the skin you are wearing. Frank Morrison, Julie Kostenko, Susie Lavoie and Joey (Joey's last name has not been revealed yet.) which doesn't actually disguise themselves like the trailer suggests.
Sadly the Demogorgon is no longer avalible and next is Leatherface
Pd: Dbd is no longer a scary game from a long time ago
Leatherface isn't leaving...unfortuanately
@@baalgodofrain did not the licence with Behaviour was gonna removed?
@@locatis58 no, it’s a false rumour form what I see, I think it’s using the same logic for why Demo was removed but as the developers said Bubba isn’t going awta
@@baalgodofrain Lets be honest, u think Stranger thinks chapter would ever come back?
Leatherface isnt leaving. beheavor made that a fake leak with a bunch of other fake leaks to circulate inside the company so they could catch who WAS leaking actual information and they found them. Company's do this all the time.
as of now (august 2024) the killers consist of:
licensed killers:
The shape (michael myers)
The cannibal (leatherface)
The nightmare (freddy krueger)
The pig (amanda from saw)
The ghost face
The demogorgon
The executioner (pyramid head)
The nemesis
The mastermind (wesker)
The cenobite (pinhead)
The onryō (from the ring)
The xenomorph (from alien)
The good guy (chucky)
and lastly The lich (vecna from d&d)
we also know we are getting a castlevania chapter but they have not revealed who the killer is going to be
og killers:
The trapper
The wraith
The hillbilly
The nurse
The hag
The doctor
The huntress
The clown
The spirit
The legion (who is actually four ppl. you can choose which of these four members to play as)
The plague

i think i got everyone lol 😅
Fun fact: in the penny wise trailer in DBD the voice actor in the background it no longer then dead meat aka James a jassie he was voicing in the background
Wait till he watches the unknown teaser.
Most of the licensed character's are not available anymore, but anyone who bought them can still play as them + all the licensed perks from those survivors/killers become normal perks that are automatically unlocked for everyone.
Blatantly false. Only the Stranger Things license has been removed so far.

NICOLAS CAGE!
love seeing this and these reactions, kinda makes me fall in love w the game again (been playing for yearssss) just love seeing it through fresh eyes
When I first played the game I said the same thing as you: How did I not played this before?
At one point I was hyped on Sadako, but the price was too high.
Been playing for a month now and brother, I am even dreaming that I'm playing the game, fr.
It's tons of fun.
37:38 Before this chapter with The Knight was released, dbd had a crossover with the game "For Honor", but it was limited with small events. Everyone were hyped about knight killer and we kinda got it. About The Oni and The Spirit killers - they are from the same Yamaoka family. Oni is like Spirit's grandgrand-smth-grandfather. That's why in their trailers they are showing the same house and oni mask. Plus Spirit's DLC called "shattered bloodline" because in lore her father went insane and slaughtered both spirit and her mother (her screams are heard at the start of the trailer). The entity took the girl bc it liked Spirit's hatred and rage after what happened to her.
DBD also had crossovers (usually events or characters cosmetics) with PUBG, mordeo, attack on titan and some others. All licenced dlc's are still available in game except Stranger things.
Its so nice to see someone outside the DBD community getting excited about the cool things the game offers!
Resident evil has the most characters in dead by daylight. They have:
Leon S. Kennedy
Jill Valentine
Chris Redfield
Claire Redfield
Ada Wong
Rebecca Chambers
Sheva Alomar
Carlos Oliviera
The Nemises
Albert Wesker
H.U.N.K
William Birkin
When you play as Nemesis, you also get two zombies that go around the map chasing the survivors or you can kill them to improve yourself, they respawn, very fun to play, bit hard tho.
As for the Knight, that was a collab with For Honor from Ubisoft, don't know much about his power tho, I know he can summon those guys to help him.
OMG first of all thank you for reacting to this. DBD has kind of been dying recently due to the lack of creativity from the developers and the community being kind of,, awful.
BUT it doesn’t take away the fact that this game is super cool with a great concept and the killers and survivors deserve attention along with the lore. It’s worth your time to play!
Sidenote; I have that exact same shirt, gifted to me by my partner. We’re twins…
Oh also the only licensed killer that we don’t have anymore is Demogorgon from Stranger Things (Steve and Nancy, too) Everyone else’s licenses are continually renewed.
So this game has actually had one anime collab which wasn't featured in this video as it was a skin pack, and that's with Attack on Titan.
It has the Armored Titan as a skin for The Oni and the Warhammer Titan for The Spirit. There's also skins for a couple of the Survivors like Mikasa for Yui (biker girl from The Oni DLC) or Eren for Dwight (nerd with glasses in a few of the trailers). They also get Attack on Titan themed remixes of the Dead by Daylight OST when you play as them too.
In terms of other cosmetics Cheryl Mason has skins that turn her into other Silent Hill characters like James Sunderland from SH2, similarly the Resident Evil characters get skins like Chris Redfield for Leon or Sheva for Jill.
And finally Ghost Face (who as others have mentioned is technically a new character) gets all kinds of outfits based off real Ghostface masks you can buy irl including his Scream cloak and mask. He also got the Scary Movie "wassup" mask in a battle pass and unlike other games battle pass skins become store items after a year or less, so even though you missed the mask you can just wait for it. Other than that all skins I've mentioned are still in the game and purchasable.
This game has issues, but as someone who wasn't into horror growing up (the only franchise I had real experience with was Left 4 Dead which I loved as a kid) it got me into stuff like Silent Hill, SAW and Attack on Titan which I adore now. It's definitely a love letter to these franchises like Smash Bros.
I don't know if you've played yet, but I'm the same as you and this is the only "competitive" game that the community is ACTUALLY not that competitive, there are a lot of instances where everyone helps each other out killers to help survivors in some cases, survivors can help killers with challenges and stuff. Everyone almost in this community is really helpful and sweet. And it isn't difficult to figure out. The most daunting thing for people is the blood web, which is basically stuff that helps level up your survivors and characters and get new perks to help you out in a match. But after you hit level 50 on a character, you can auto-click after that for the blood web to grab things for you. Which is really helpful if you don't know what to get. I highly recommend giving it a chance, especially playing with friends!
As a long time player of dbd I’m so happy to see new people get so excited over the characters haven’t seen that in years ! thank you man ❤❤❤
OH MY GOD i had that mask too!! the one with the heart attached!! i still have it in my closet with the cloak, i dressed up as ghostface one year and accidentally ended up scaring the kids around the neighbourhood 😭
In case you're still wondering, none of the licensed killers or survivors are limited time. However, demigorgan, Steve Harrington, and nacy Wheeler have been removed. we now have xenomorph,along with the corresponding survivor and Nickolas cage, as a stand-alone survivor.
A lot of the killers (who aren’t licensed) are play ons of the actual Horror Movie Killers which is pretty cool, not all of them are play ons sometimes and are own creations from bvhr I believe too
Also *Interesting Fact* : the Spirit (the ghost with the sword) and the Oni (demon red mask guy) are related, he’s her Great (many greats) grandfather
Watching this a little over a year later and I'm really curious about your take on the new killers they've added.
Also, a little fun fact--a lot of the non-licensed killers are based on other things. If I heard right: like Blight is based on Jekyll/Hyde, Nurse is based on the nurses from Silent Hill, Clown is based on John Wayne Gacy, etc.
Fun fact: Pyramid Head had a bit of backlash after an update of the game. And that backlash was becauuuuuse they reduced the size of his ass. Yup! Pyramid Head was double cheeked up when he was first released but it got reduced and fans were pissed off. People be thirsty as hell for these killers!
For licensed killers and survivors, they aren’t limited, they come in dlcs that you can get after or during the licensed event.
If I remember the lore correctly Oni is Spirit's ancestor. They come from the same family/clan. it's why we see the mask in Spirit's trailer and why both of their chapters have references to either bloodline or legacy.
Hi! New watcher here! I heard you talk about the experience you had wacthing horror games till this point, and I think you would love playing Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Or even the newest title: The Bunker. It's got a lot of thought put into it, and the whole atmosphere of the game is very immersive.
I love how someone who's never played the game also recognized how bait and switch the trailer for The Legion was. Everyone immediately said the exact same thing. A completely new dynamic, not trusting your fellow survivors who you've always been able to trust. Then Behavior said "Nah, got eem" and gave us the Legion we all know. Still think it would be a cool concept even if it wouldn't fully work especially if it's against a 4 man SWF (Survive With Friends) who are all communicating.
Also I just got to the Ghost Face part and BROOO I had the EXACT same Scream mask with the blood that pumped from the heart holy shit lmao
Holy shit. Just noticed you have a Tomie tatoo! That's crazy! Looks really cool. Also, I love your reactions! It's great to see a perspective from someone outside the community!
