Vecna had four powers in one, Drac has three in one, Singularity requires a PhD in mathematics, meanwhile most fun killer power in the game is still just "Chainsaw"
4:47 same tbh each new killer that comes out just feels like they have 45 different facets of their powers, old killer was 'billy-chainsaws, nurse-blinks, huntress throws hatchets'
yeah if they're simplistic and their power is similar to another killer we can call them clones! right now we can only call them an amalgamation of other killer powers wrapped in a fleshy / fur suit
The mori is a reference for Castlevania Symphony of the Night fans. The infamous "WHAT IS A MAN" *throws wine glass* scene. So for fans of the series the mori is *chefs kiss*, for everyone else its "eh not the worst". I do wish there was a mori for when in wolf form too but I can understand limitations and all.
@@bobydocky9641 I absolutely love it, but slight bias as i'm a huge castlevania fan and they really didn't need to add the casle showing up in the background but MAN do I love em for it.
We are in the wrong timeline if JRM is the only youtuber who actually covered everything this killer can do base. Otz missed pallet shreds, Spooky missed.... a lot, and Aryun missed something I cant remember.
Ngl, his perks are.... Idk But the shape shifting is cool I am hella sad there isn't a custom map for this guy. Would be so dope to have a Castelvania type of map!!
While the perks aren't as strong on their own, they have a disgusting synergy with other existing perks. For example, Wretched Fate will be meta if they keep Pentimento as it is, the 33% repair speed is devastating and if the obsession cleanses it, the killer gets 20% penalty to all survivors after rekindling the totem. Add the other new perk Dominance for information and to waste survivor's time (assuming it reactivates with rekindled totems). Add another strong hex of your choice and you got yourself one of the most op builds that DBD had.
Any non licensed map does get his castle in the background, looks pretty sick but I agree that having draculas castle as an actual map would've been INSANE
I love that they are innovating and getting a bit more creative with the new killers. My only concern is what you brought up in this video. These killers are so diverse and have so many abilities that they absorb some of what other killers already do. So basically, these new "super killers" will leave the old ones obsolete. I doubt we will see many pyramid heads, or deathslingers, or hardly any of the old killers, because vecna and this guy have all of their powers combined lol
Copying other killer skills and regrouping them in 1 killer means innovating/creative for you ? They could have done so many other things with Dracula but they took the boring path. He's just a mix of 3 killers. Bhvr lost their touch quite some time ago and it keep showing. The last 5-6 new killers are boring. Same can be said with both new survivor and killer perks. There's nothing creative/innovating in there
I agree there's a stark difference between the older killer designs and these new ones, but I think BHVR are doing well right now to not make these hybrid killers' abilities as strong as the killers whose designs are devoted completely to just one of them. Off the top of my head, Dracula's bat form seems to function a lot like Spirit's phase when you aren't warping to a vault, but it also doesn't move as fast as her phase, and survivors hear a lullaby when the killer is in bat form to make them aware they should play around it. His hellfire has a narrower width than Pyramid Head's punishment and can only go over low obstacles as opposed to through everything. Obviously this is all capable of being changed in a live release, but between him and Vecna's cooldowns on his individual abilities I think it demonstrates an awareness on BHVR's part to not have these new killers completely displace the older ones who are dedicated to just one thing.
That's not new tbh. BHVR have made a total of like 4 100% original killers so far. How many killers have a dash mechanic? Wesker, Demo, Chucky, Pig, you can technically say Onyro and Spirit too. How many killers have a TP now? Dracula, Unknown, Dredge, Demodog, Onyro, Singularity, Alien, Freddy, Hag and Nurse? Not including add-ons like Spirits? I'd argue the only 2 truly unique killers are Doctor and Twins. Everybody else is "Just X but with Y instead," Xeno is just demo, but with a different ranged attack. Onyro is just old-Freddy but has an infection mechanic. On the plus side, you can find a killer thats right for you. On a minus, some killers are just power-crept by newer additions. I legitimately can't think of a single reason to play Myers anymore when all these killers does every part of his power better.
The mori is a reference to the infamous encounter between Richter Belmont and Dracula. And as a fan of Castlevania, i'll say it, the mori is top tier in that regard
9:01 Watching this while X-men is playing in the background and Wolverine showed up when James mentioned him in the Mori. It caught me off guard so much 😭🐺
With enough scent orbs collected, Wolf form can jump over pallets and vaults at fast speed. Wolf is slightly slower than Dracula but can track the survivor’s scents and lunge farther. Bat form can teleport Dracula to a determined location on the map, bat also temporarily hides Dracula’s terror radius
What do i look forward to most on PTB release day is not playing, no no, I love watching james play and figuring it out because lets be honest james has the most hilarious and funny take on it! I wont lie i am the same, let me get in a game and figure out what i am doing lol Thank you james for another awesome vid! Can't wait to watch the chaos in stream!
For me, personally, this is the best killer addition the game has ever had. It led me to find and get together with my current girlfriend! Also, he's just a cool killer that I enjoy playing. It's a good kit. A little bit of role-playing and my entire life changed. Thank you dbd
That is the slowest, clunkiest wolf I have ever seen in a game, which is kinda impressive cuz even the Fortnite Lego wolves were animated better than that.
Dracula basically has 4 powers from different killers, but slightly tweaked. Hellfire = Pyramidheads power but it doesnt go through walls. The wolf is just Weskers rush but it feels slower. The bats are a cool mix of The Spirit and the Dredge while also being different enough to make it its own thing which is pretty neat
Dracula feels like the game testers test character that they can use after every patch to make sure all the abilities work. Hellfire is pyramid head. Bat is spirit/freddy. Wolf is wesker/billy (breaking pallets)/oni (orbs). They probably made this character back when wesker came out for their game testers, forgot about it shortly after. Then some new MBA came around and asked what that dracula character was and why they didn't sell it to players for 3x the cost of a normal killer because he has 3x the abilities. Dang MBAs ruining everything again. Its so freaking lazy, its basically just copy/pasted powers. I have no doubt some bastard MBA was responsible for this.
BHVR trtying to bring the coolest most badass killers and here we are calling him cat-boy, pidgeon, puppy-mode, vampire daddy.....DBD gamers are a special breed hahahaha
This killer is a Dredge + Wesker + Nemesis + Spirit lol It's so cool to have new killers in the game, but I feel like devs lack inspiration It was the same thing with Xeno ( a Nemesis + Demo ) And they gave the Artist power to Vecna. So why play the artist if I can play a stronger killer ? Anyway good video :)
They could simply use the design Carmilla has in some of the games, and not bother with the Netflix version at all. Although I feel like an Alucard cosmetic is more likely since he has pretty much the same abilities as Dracula.
Bro his perks boil down to “protect my treasures no touchy”
"My preciiiiious"
Chest Bubbas gonna eat good the next Chapter XD
@@thirstyfordoctor609ooooooh boy is he ❤
This deserves pin
pretty in character as he doesnt want to share his knowledge with the human race in the anime

Well more like chainsaw that infrequently takes steroids and straps rockets to it's exhaust
aim crow fire aim crow fire aim crow fire thats all i know
i like doctor cuz his power is just brain damage
Xeno can hit over pallets

Spooky was cooked. I feel like ayrun actually covered a good amount of good killer combos.
Nah common JRM W
Nah JRM never realized you can go through vault locations as the bat like the Lich can

I am hella sad there isn't a custom map for this guy. Would be so dope to have a Castelvania type of map!!
Comboing his hex perk with Pentimento + other regression, is gonna make playing survivor like crushing your dick with a cinder block.
SAME I would've killed to explore Dracula's Castle! Hopefully we'll get a map with gorgeous gothic architecture some other day.
At least the D&D map has a vaguely similar theme with its medieval castle stuff

That little bat is the cutest killer they ever made. I just wish he had an M1 lol
Hearing JRM call a wolf a "catboy" is killing me inside, lol
