@@CafLichy I agree. Game is supposed be an asymmetrical horror. Tokyo Ghoul isn't scary. Game is becoming more and more like fortnite with additions like Lara and Nick Cage. Glad I don't play anymore.
seems like the entity pulled kaneki in right at the point of his torture and when he was broken mentally. in this state it makes sense why he’s so blood thirsty and psychotic
Except he is clearly using his Aogiri attire, this is obviously centipede Kaneki without committing to the centipede, also even if it was right after jason broke him, at that point he was just cold and uncaring, not mad, centipede is effectively the one time he goes mad, and I guess when he kills the Juuzou's Qs clone squad
One thing I found while testing: If you cancel the power mid-leap, you’ll keep moving while recovering your ability to basic attack. Pairing this with the brown add-on that increases his slide distance can let you land right on top of Survivors with a basic attack ready
yeah grey slide add-on+ green recovery 10% faster after leap is his best combo. in fact, there is 0 reason to run anything else EXCEPT this combo. kinda feels bad when a killer has no add-on other than 2.
@@pokeaust7800 both his add-on should be base-kit but knowing BVHR, they might just nerf his missed cooldown because killer like Billy, Xeno(PTB) and Chucky missed cooldown were nerfed. As a result, survivor can complain and make him a m1 killer if they increase his missed cooldown recovery.

I like the Knuckle Crack on hit, and the "Whats 1000 -7" they really pay attention to detail.

They could've legit added amon koutarou as a variation of survivor and killer since in the anime he became a ghoul too and also they couldve made kaneki going to kenk2 mode with the 6 tentacles would be a bit cooler than just staying in the same 4 tailed
@@vaLLavRey he does u bozo, ghouls get stronger as they experience more pain so he cracks his finger to increase his fighting capabilities. But yes the finger cracking thing was inspired by Jason
This is honestly kind of wild. And makes me a bit sad that a lot of people will now be subjected to the terrible anime adaption of an incredible manga.
TBH, S1 is not THAT bad. They just rushed a lot and did kind of ruin Kaneki’s torture, but everything else from S2 onwards, it is a mess and I can’t defend it.
@@Falconii2 honestly I think season 1 is really good even tho they missed some stuff like kaneki and touka going to the ccg and stuff. But everything after the Jason fight is just a complete mess
It kinda feels like they wanted to make really highly mobile killer but were so afraid to make another Nurse and put handicap on any creative use of the power
I would've preferred this killer so much more if their power was similar to Alien's tail attack or Nemesis' tentacle whip. Much more in line with how them tentacles are used in the show too, I think. I just want another good 'ol fashion chase power like hatchets or the chainsaw. This Kagune Leap ability just ain't it.
All the references to the manga/anime, the ability, mori. Everything about this just screams that the devs love the source material. As much as I like to rag on the game and haven't played it in years, this is looking to bring me back in, ngl. Love TG
@@bigsmoke167 What map would they even do? Tokyo is super constricted IRL and so is the Aogiri HQ. The map would be terrible. And his power is completely fine to me. The only thing that I would have liked is that he can lunge up buildings like the second floor of dead dawg. Not downing is fine enough as if he could down people then his ability would probably offer you less freedom of control, and I used to main Legion so this is perfectly fine to me, lmao.
The fact that there's an anime killer now means that there's a potential for a new fanbase to try out DBD. I hope this means the monsters from Parasyte might be in the game one day
i dont want any more anime chapters not bec i hate anime i love anime but the community is so whiny and bitchy i just dont want the negatvity in the game.
@@eucliffbentley9670 every community has this side bruv even if it isnt apparent as others its everywhere. marvel and star wars have it just as bad and arent anime
he will absolutely be my new main, i'm such a huge fan of tokyo ghoul and seeing kaneki in game is surreal, and his power fits my playstyle very well, i really love zooming around the map and engaging chases really quickly
the target icon for the power as well as the open and closed mouth icon to indicate whether your power injures or not is SO cool looking to me. i find Kaneki's design a little too similar to Wesker for my taste, but the artistic aspects of him are so good i can kind of forgive him for the unoriginality.
Imma gonna be honest, the games almost 10 years old, it's almost impossible to completely make something orginal. We're at almost 40 killers. I genuinely cannot think of ways to make killers 100% unique with no overlap with other killers. The closest they've gotten in a while is Sigularity.
Its feels like 90% of the community has forgotten about how many killers we have in this game... Like, what do you expect?? They're gonna be similar. @ElroyTheTwost
@ElroyTheTwost they could've mixed him a bit like a Blight that's able to jump/latch onto walls instead of a Spiderman like killer. Because in the anime, he can latch onto the walls with the kagune by digging it into the material. But he wouldn't be good with the invisible walls that exist in the game
@ i thought about it while watching some more gameplay of him and i really really want to see him get some verticality in his movement. right now since it’s limited to the same elevation in terms of where you can leap to, he feels like a carbon copy dash killer. this is coming from a survivor only player, i would LOVE to see him jump back up through a hole in the floor to jumpscare me on a gen in RPD or something. ptb is buggy but i think dbd as a whole might be too buggy for that kinda movement, but hopefully we can see it in the future!!!
I never thought they'd add Kaneki but I am so glad they did. Everything about the killer is so well-polished - the mori, the music, the FX, hell, even the finger crack being included, it really brings me back to loving the series in high school and fits surprisingly well into DBD
He just doesn't fit at all (character wise) He is not someone who would kill anyone for the sake of it, that is completely against his character. Also the power is incredible lame
@Gunther69420 the entity can control killers. There's actually a few that aren't willing so the entity makes them. You can apply it to this killer too
@@Soyoistlecker It does make sense if they say which version of Kaneki it is since him going centipede mode does turn him into an ideal killer, and the Entity is rather good at making even a normal human into an unstoppable demon. Also isn't Kaneki still in the works? Obviously his moves are going to be weird and a complete mess, yet every other killer turned out nice after their initial introduction to the game, so I'd say let them cook.
I'm excited that we've broken into getting anime Killers, but this one does not have me excited at all. His kit seems to rub in how much BHVR hates verticality and looks really frustrating to use when instead of any sense of "swinging", it's just Blight or Wesker dashing with extra steps. His perks are also not only basically useless, but not much for synergy. Having seen all of S1, Ken's kind of a weird pick for a Killer, but he is the main character so I guess that's inevitable. At least he seems pretty lore-accurate with things like powering up from a nibble and clearly being in a feral state here (which means minimal voice lines). Cool Mori too.
@@exferior For me it was the opposite. The first season was bad, then it got better as it went. The manga is a masterpiece, but I appreciate the anime for what it was too.
I’d like if the reworked the iri mask add on so that it gives him unlimited leaps but removes the ability to grab or injure survivors with the power. It would be the funnest add on in the game.
It seems like the best way to use his power is to just not hit survivors with it to begin with, so there's practically no downside to the proposed addon.
Cool concept, but seems like there's a few oversights. Losing your power entirely if you fall off a ledge, not being able to really use it against injured survivors, pallet/window vaults are just slightly too slow. It's cool so far, but if those are tweaked slightly, I think it could be great. (C'mon, we're what? 9 years in? I would have thought we're past the point of powers only working half the time. I would have thought by default, you'd be able to use a new killers power against injured survivors to down them. If I want half my chases to be essentially Legion - deep wound, can't down with power in most situations, just m1 with occasional situational mobility from power - I'll just play Legion).
Remember this is literally the testing phase for him. If you’re complaining about how he feels then that is what they want, so they know what should be tweaked. This is like watching a scene from a movie before it’s gotten any editing and complaining it doesn’t look good
@@Coblit3 have you actually played dbd tho? it takes them 6-36 months to apply any kind of feedback from ptb. And even then, they usually do the exact opposite of what people complained about.
@@KsanUwU Maybe in the past sure but I’m going to be honest DBD has been amazing with responding in a timely manner for well over a couple of years now. Houndmaster immediately got buffs and was pretty viable around a week after her full release, the 2 v 8 mode got constant changes in order to help queue times and they even made Dracula fairly balanced in less than a month. I think they should be given more credit
you know that feeling when you’re excited for a killer and the cool new mechanic and you slowly watch and see that the power is completely booty cheeks
Me with nearly every killer reveal. The only time i didn't feel this way was with Wesker. But even then idk why he uses Uroboros mostly instead of hand to hand attacks
Nah it's actually crazy mobility and with the brown 100 percent slide perk and umbrella, canceling the leap halfway makes a m1 ready when you reach a survivor, it's so good
The only time I felt excited and hyped for a killer was probably The Unknown. Was excited for this killer but his power is underwhelming. Everything else is pretty good tho when comes to design and all that but his power seems boring
No, you've just got to time it right. You can hit basically right after leaping if you end the cooldown manually. You can injure with power, then leap towards them as soon as power is back, end power right before colliding with them/even after landing on some loops, hit them. If there wasn't any kind of cooldown/recovery between leaping and m1'ing it would just be blight but you have grappling hooks.
This genuinely seems like a good chapter, and I don’t even watch anime. This guy just seems like a fun killer who doesn’t intend on dominating games, and just sorely exists to be enjoyable.
That was my first thought. I was reading his power just expecting another dash > hit > dash > kill killer but was pleasantly surprised. He's extremely fun to play, even when I was losing, and his power requires more thinking than just dashing for kills.
Obviously once I get used to it, itll be fine, but this guy will be terrifying to face. Just imagining the crazy terror radius while this tentacle guy flies at me screaming lmao
Something about his model looks so strange to me. It looks really boxy? None the less, very cool looking killer. Can't wait to see the clips that'll come from this guy lmao
@ That's probably it. His clothes also look like..... clay? Maybe? They don't look fluid/wrinkly like normal clothes do. I think that also adds to the weird, boxy look. His face and mask look great tho :)
@@greeninja5991 the anime was extremely rushed and the later seasons straight up skipped content in the manga and changed the story to an extent while having it's once wonderful animation get downgraded, which left many people both confused and disappointed. The manga, on the other hand, not only has the full correct storyline, but also has pretty nice art and panels of incredible drawing.
@@greeninja5991 Manga is an easy 10/10 read (imo at least). Anime skips a lot in the first season, and the second season is intentionally a different universe from the manga. The manga has a much better story and a LOT more content.
Imagine how will they incorporate Jhin's tendency with the Number 4. Trial is with 4 survivors already so Jhin will be happy. Maybe he needs to count to 4 before hitting a survivor which is a big nerf but if it connects it will be a instant down. Perks can be associated with the number 4 too. Like he gets a boost when theres 4 gens left or something.
I wonder if Forever Entwined + Fire Up + Agitation would make you move like a cracked-out murder-gremlin. None Are Free could pair well with No Way Out for the endgame potential. Hex: Nothing But Misery seems like it would be a nightmare when paired with Save The Best For Last.
Otz, the slide addon is for sliding not vaulting. When you use your NOT LAST leap you have a little of sliding, that addon is like going with rollers, its absurdly good
It may be a garbage effect, but I'm running Forever Entwinned and Fire Up literally every game. The less time I spend picking people up, the more time I get to do the actually fun part of the game.
I tried that out, it was HILARIOUS how fast I could pick survs up! Maybe it's not the best effect two perks can give, but it's so fun and at the very least is basically a better Lightborn.
I was INSANELY hyped when this popped up… but then it turns out he’s another dash killer, which sucks. At least he’s a dash killer by way of a ranged grappling-hook mechanic, which is at least interesting…
@@KayPopins I’m hoping for significant reworks before launch, ‘cause right now, this is a nothing killer with a lot of potential he’s not using. Genuinely Wesker 2.0.
They're never gonna make another killer that isn't either trickshot or dash because the community is allergic to gameplay that isn't reliant on a super cool epic skillshot with immediate gratification to put on their compilation. See: Knight, Merchant, Hag
Thing to note: You can't down with power, but you can end your leap mid leap, or right as your hitting an object (like a survivor). You recover quick enough (if done right) to hit quite fast after. The Apron lets you fling yourself around loops and catch up to survivors VERY quickly. Also seems to let you do some insane hug techs. You still slide in Enraged mode you just don't slide on the final leap (2nd in normal mode, 3rd in enraged) or one you cancel. You can get a fre injury with him then sling yourself to catchup very quickly. Vaulting is faster while Enraged and targeting a marked survivor. Bamboozle/unbound will trigger on window vaults this way too.
In my opinion a killer shouldn't be punished for using his power, he should be able to down after using his power like every other killer, it isn't like blight can't down you after using his power
Not every Killer can down with their power though, quite a few can only use their power to facilitate downs; and Blight has periods where his power is a risk and can hinder getting downs (the first rush and the cooldown after the rushes are over)
No a lot of killers can use their powers for downs. This killer is gonna go the way of legion, and no one will play him after the initial release. Another garbage killer from DBD. Those perks are garbage too.
I think the Ghoul should gain some sort of buff when enraged that helps him M1 and finish people off since he doesn't get much value from it after injuring every survivor
My thoughts exactly, If they gave him the increased vault speed that they said that he has (Its really just quicker to go into the vault, not the vault animation itself) they could even have it where he passes through the vault entire like Vecna, or maybe even allowing M1 out of the jump, or the improved environmental mobility to move up and down areas. There's a lot of stuff they could add to make the "enraged state" feel ACTUALLY enraged and threatening.
You can leap and hit survivors still, you just can't hit them with your power. If you leap and go on cooldown mid leap (from ending it yourself), timing it right lets you hit pretty quickly after landing next to them. Your recovery for going into cooldown is very short. Its not like missing a wesker dash and them making it to a pallet.
i don't know anything about tokyo ghoul, but i'll give my opinion His concept isn't very original nor his power very unique, however it does looks quite fun using his tentacles to move around and mastering the momentum after pullling himselft foward. At the end of the day, all that matters is if it's fun or not using using the killer, and in my opinion it does look fun
I'm super biased, I'm going to main Kaneki regardless of how good or how fun he is. However, he is still SUPER fun to play. I don't wesker or blight, but I do like Kaneki's power.
I used to watch tokyo ghoul. I watched the first 2 seasons when it came out. The only thing I have to criticize about is the whole not being able to go higher up floors and things. Considering in the anime he is extremely mobile. It would be amazing to see someone on the freddy map in the two story building and he uses his power to just climb up through the window. And for cosmetics I wonder if they are gonna let you play as the other ghouls, or on release they will release a Rize skin considering on how Kaneki gets his power from her through surgery.
Edit: Well, I was wrong. Killer is insanely good and a lot of fun. Granted the PTR run was plagued with issues and bugs but I didn't think he'd be as good as he is after those were addressed, but he is. I still stand by my opinion on his perks though. As awesome as it is to see Kaneki in DBD, I have to say I'm extremely disappointed with pretty much everything about him. Like Legion, great at injuring and terrible at everything else. And I have to say, these may be the worst perks released on a killer I've ever seen. I feel like they deliberately made him awful just to see if Tokyo Ghoul popularity is enough to profit with. I for one won't be getting him, he honestly looks like he sucks.
His perks seems fine, just not inline with is power much. However, you can get very free and easy downs with his power. You just can't dash to kill people like blight or wesker can. I don't want another nurse or blight either, I just want a fun killer (and he is one). He is by no means weak or awful lmao.
@@darkopendragon Well, I definitely have to disagree with his perks. They seem absolutely terrible to me but I could be missing some potential. As for just wanting a fun killer, I get that. And if I'm being fair, I think he could actually be pretty fun. At least, in the short term. Being able to Spider-Man your way through a map is arguably a pretty fun mechanic. But, I suspect that novelty will wear off very quick once you start struggling to secure kills. Right now on the PTR, setting aside the entire arsenal of buggy interactions plaguing the servers atm, he seems relatively 'okay', but once you start playing against even remotely decent survivors, I see him being more frustrating than anything else. Just another Legion and if I'm being perfectly honest, probably a slightly worse Legion at that (at least as he is on the PTR). But, if there's one thing we know for sure, it's that there will be some adjustments before he goes to the live servers. As to how significant those adjustments will be, that's impossible to say. Maybe they'll tweak him enough make him viable but right now? He seems fun, but bad. Very bad. And I'm not entirely convinced the 'fun' factor will stick around that long either.
You're half right. Kanake isn't a full ghoul. He's what is referred to as a Half Ghoul and they are usually artificially created by taking a kanage and surgically inserting it into a human being. His kanage is a "donation" from the very ghoul that tried to eat him. Ghouls usually reproduce with other ghouls, so natural half ghouls are exceptionally rare. And not just because of birthing complications, half ghouls have quite the intoxicating scent to those more keen in smell. And their flesh is supposedly just as intoxicating. Meaning if a half ghoul survives birth, they're likely to get eaten by full ghouls.
hes cracking his knuckle, he literally does it in the anime its a habit he picks up off yamori when he was being tortured which cracked his knuckles the same way
@@DrakenesEsperck it doesnt explicitly say that anywhere in the manga or anime its just a theory really, in concept its a cool idea but i think cracking makes more sense since yamori picked up the habit from a human that tortured him besides that ishida himself has said its cracking and not breaking
The one part that's really cool to me. Is he's the first anime character in game. Yeah, the Aot skins were pretty cool. But this looks transferred over well.
“Spider man, spider man, does whatever a spider can.” Is all I’m gonna be saying when I play him. Also, that pick up perk could be good to counter flashlights since you will be able to turn away faster, so neat ig.
Is it just me or is this killer terribly underpowered? Legion is already considered one of the weakest killers because their power doesn't work on injured survivors, so after you get everyone injured you're playing as angsty knife teen. But Legion's power is much easier to injure people with, to the point of being almost guarenteed. It can injure multiple people in one use, without going to cooldown. It also has decent mobility, even tho it's not as much as The Ghoul. AND Legion's power has built in information. This killer can do what Legion can do but slower and without info.
The way to play him is to M1 THEN use power, Otz did it all wrong. You cannot down a marked survivor, so you're not supposed to mark them initially. The grab-attack is almost a guarantee damage ignoring obstacles, you can't M1 then immediately down a survivor with Legion's Power.
Not sure if he mentioned it, if you landed right on an unmarked survivor after a leap, you could damage them and choose NOT to leave a mark, then you can leap IMMEDIATELY to down the survivor because they are UNMARKED.
So thats what that confirmation mark input means, thats huge for kaneki tbh, and also rewards skilled players, you can either a) mark everyone so they have to mend and you get a lot of value of your rage state Or b) You can choose to only mark a few survivors and try to get a quick down as a pseudo m1 killer, but you run the risk of running out of time in rage mode.
This is not true. You cannot down survivors with the leap ever, marked or not-- it only ever puts Deep Wound on them. The mark means they're not targetable, but even if a survivor is not marked and injured you cannot down them.
@@partystarter8041 I just tested there, sadly this doesn't work. Whether you confirm the right click input after grabbing a survivor or not, Kaneki will damage and mark the survivor either way. Feel like they have to change something to make the power work on injured survivors, if they can do it for Wesker why not my boy Kaneki
a anime killer opens so many other ideas for killers like hellsing with Alucard, death note with light/Shinigami, any main JOJO villain, HxH and hisoka, makima will make thousands
That's why adding anime is always odd to anything that isn't anime themed in the first place. It opens Pandora's box of nerds who want to see everybody else getting into their weird taste. Gaslighting them that it isn't a degenerative art obsessed with minors

The mori should be kaneki taking 20mins saying he’s not a killer, then the survivor dies of boredom.

He should carry the survivor for 20 mins lmfao

He would just cry in the entire mori animation like he always does when he tries to not eat someone
They could've legit added amon koutarou as a variation of survivor and killer since in the anime he became a ghoul too and also they couldve made kaneki going to kenk2 mode with the 6 tentacles would be a bit cooler than just staying in the same 4 tailed

@@Falconii2 honestly I think season 1 is really good even tho they missed some stuff like kaneki and touka going to the ccg and stuff. But everything after the Jason fight is just a complete mess
It kinda feels like they wanted to make really highly mobile killer but were so afraid to make another Nurse and put handicap on any creative use of the power
Nurse will always be here to patrol the fun
@@MisterRagdoll could also be they had no idea how to code a Spider-Man like power.
You've just explained every killer essentially.
Wesker is in the game, they probably just have no idea what is strong or weak in the game.
I would've preferred this killer so much more if their power was similar to Alien's tail attack or Nemesis' tentacle whip. Much more in line with how them tentacles are used in the show too, I think.
I just want another good 'ol fashion chase power like hatchets or the chainsaw. This Kagune Leap ability just ain't it.

You can tell they love the source material by not adding a map or giving him a good power
@@bigsmoke167 His power is one of the best powers in the game. Go look Scott's gameplay with him
@@bigsmoke167 What map would they even do? Tokyo is super constricted IRL and so is the Aogiri HQ. The map would be terrible. And his power is completely fine to me.

Not downing is fine enough as if he could down people then his ability would probably offer you less freedom of control, and I used to main Legion so this is perfectly fine to me, lmao.

Nobody gaf weeb
he will absolutely be my new main, i'm such a huge fan of tokyo ghoul and seeing kaneki in game is surreal, and his power fits my playstyle very well, i really love zooming around the map and engaging chases really quickly

Imagine if Leatherface was called "The Texas"
the target icon for the power as well as the open and closed mouth icon to indicate whether your power injures or not is SO cool looking to me. i find Kaneki's design a little too similar to Wesker for my taste, but the artistic aspects of him are so good i can kind of forgive him for the unoriginality.
Imma gonna be honest, the games almost 10 years old, it's almost impossible to completely make something orginal. We're at almost 40 killers. I genuinely cannot think of ways to make killers 100% unique with no overlap with other killers. The closest they've gotten in a while is Sigularity.
@ that’s a really good point tbh! and it’s not like Wesker is getting removed (rip pinhead :,( ) so he’ll still be there just the same as Kaneki
Its feels like 90% of the community has forgotten about how many killers we have in this game... Like, what do you expect?? They're gonna be similar. @ElroyTheTwost
@ElroyTheTwost they could've mixed him a bit like a Blight that's able to jump/latch onto walls instead of a Spiderman like killer. Because in the anime, he can latch onto the walls with the kagune by digging it into the material. But he wouldn't be good with the invisible walls that exist in the game
@ i thought about it while watching some more gameplay of him and i really really want to see him get some verticality in his movement. right now since it’s limited to the same elevation in terms of where you can leap to, he feels like a carbon copy dash killer. this is coming from a survivor only player, i would LOVE to see him jump back up through a hole in the floor to jumpscare me on a gen in RPD or something. ptb is buggy but i think dbd as a whole might be too buggy for that kinda movement, but hopefully we can see it in the future!!!
I never thought they'd add Kaneki but I am so glad they did. Everything about the killer is so well-polished - the mori, the music, the FX, hell, even the finger crack being included, it really brings me back to loving the series in high school and fits surprisingly well into DBD
He just doesn't fit at all (character wise) He is not someone who would kill anyone for the sake of it, that is completely against his character. Also the power is incredible lame
@@Soyoistleckerwell the entity changes the way killers see things so kaneki isn't just killing them for the sake of it
@@SoyoistleckerWhen he's evil he wants to kill. I hope that cleared some things up. 😊
@Gunther69420 the entity can control killers. There's actually a few that aren't willing so the entity makes them. You can apply it to this killer too
@@Soyoistlecker It does make sense if they say which version of Kaneki it is since him going centipede mode does turn him into an ideal killer, and the Entity is rather good at making even a normal human into an unstoppable demon. Also isn't Kaneki still in the works? Obviously his moves are going to be weird and a complete mess, yet every other killer turned out nice after their initial introduction to the game, so I'd say let them cook.
as a dbd lover, ths was the last thing i expected but when i tell you im over the MOON
amen
Every time kaniki leaps all I hear is Gollum/Victor getting his ass kicked 😂
Twins mains are screaming rn
I could have never seen this coming but I am so happy!
If his power is polished in terms of some of the clunk and we learn more about what specifically he does this looks like it has some fun potential
Hes just a worse Blight/Nurse with his mobility and injure.
@@HyeonsikLi So you want a better blight? That sounds like so much fun...............
@@HyeonsikLiEveryone is worse than Nurse/Blight, that's not an argument
It won't be polished this is BHVR
I'm excited that we've broken into getting anime Killers, but this one does not have me excited at all. His kit seems to rub in how much BHVR hates verticality and looks really frustrating to use when instead of any sense of "swinging", it's just Blight or Wesker dashing with extra steps. His perks are also not only basically useless, but not much for synergy.
Having seen all of S1, Ken's kind of a weird pick for a Killer, but he is the main character so I guess that's inevitable. At least he seems pretty lore-accurate with things like powering up from a nibble and clearly being in a feral state here (which means minimal voice lines). Cool Mori too.
His power is just a dash with extra steps which is sad. Could have been a cool killer, ended up as something we already have in cooler
@@Soyoistleckerexcept this is a cooler dash in many respects

*y
iri old blight add-on. that went very well....
@ Who knows? Maybe with all the changes, perk additions, and meta shifts since then, it won’t be as overpowered
It seems like the best way to use his power is to just not hit survivors with it to begin with, so there's practically no downside to the proposed addon.
Wow, amazing that Otz got all this out in a single take! That’s a great streamer right there! 😀👍
Cool concept, but seems like there's a few oversights. Losing your power entirely if you fall off a ledge, not being able to really use it against injured survivors, pallet/window vaults are just slightly too slow.
It's cool so far, but if those are tweaked slightly, I think it could be great.
(C'mon, we're what? 9 years in? I would have thought we're past the point of powers only working half the time. I would have thought by default, you'd be able to use a new killers power against injured survivors to down them. If I want half my chases to be essentially Legion - deep wound, can't down with power in most situations, just m1 with occasional situational mobility from power - I'll just play Legion).
True, but being able to down survs with this would be beyond busted. It would be like nurse without the learning curve.
Remember this is literally the testing phase for him. If you’re complaining about how he feels then that is what they want, so they know what should be tweaked. This is like watching a scene from a movie before it’s gotten any editing and complaining it doesn’t look good
@@Coblit3 have you actually played dbd tho? it takes them 6-36 months to apply any kind of feedback from ptb. And even then, they usually do the exact opposite of what people complained about.

@ mobility is great, but his counter is literally a indoor map or a jungle gym.

@@Tootyfrooty420the movement is decent and he can get buffed no need to be negative all the time but fair enough.
This killer looks really interesting. But that cooldown to do an M1 after the grappling hook is too long. Great mobility, terrible lethality.
Hopefully they tweak it before it leaves PTB
No, you've just got to time it right. You can hit basically right after leaping if you end the cooldown manually. You can injure with power, then leap towards them as soon as power is back, end power right before colliding with them/even after landing on some loops, hit them. If there wasn't any kind of cooldown/recovery between leaping and m1'ing it would just be blight but you have grappling hooks.
This genuinely seems like a good chapter, and I don’t even watch anime. This guy just seems like a fun killer who doesn’t intend on dominating games, and just sorely exists to be enjoyable.
That was my first thought. I was reading his power just expecting another dash > hit > dash > kill killer but was pleasantly surprised. He's extremely fun to play, even when I was losing, and his power requires more thinking than just dashing for kills.
Can't believe they gave Ken kaneki an odm gear

Jhin in dbd would be amazing, such a nice fit. We have to somehow make it happen.
Fiddlesticks also, Unknown is basically him so not much work to be done.
Imagine how will they incorporate Jhin's tendency with the Number 4. Trial is with 4 survivors already so Jhin will be happy.
Maybe he needs to count to 4 before hitting a survivor which is a big nerf but if it connects it will be a instant down.
Perks can be associated with the number 4 too. Like he gets a boost when theres 4 gens left or something.

@@PistolSlinginMothMan indeed lol
They're never gonna make another killer that isn't either trickshot or dash because the community is allergic to gameplay that isn't reliant on a super cool epic skillshot with immediate gratification to put on their compilation.
See: Knight, Merchant, Hag
Thing to note:
You can't down with power, but you can end your leap mid leap, or right as your hitting an object (like a survivor). You recover quick enough (if done right) to hit quite fast after.
The Apron lets you fling yourself around loops and catch up to survivors VERY quickly. Also seems to let you do some insane hug techs. You still slide in Enraged mode you just don't slide on the final leap (2nd in normal mode, 3rd in enraged) or one you cancel.
You can get a fre injury with him then sling yourself to catchup very quickly.
Vaulting is faster while Enraged and targeting a marked survivor. Bamboozle/unbound will trigger on window vaults this way too.
In my opinion a killer shouldn't be punished for using his power, he should be able to down after using his power like every other killer, it isn't like blight can't down you after using his power
Not every Killer can down with their power though, quite a few can only use their power to facilitate downs; and Blight has periods where his power is a risk and can hinder getting downs (the first rush and the cooldown after the rushes are over)
his power is way easier to hit than blight
that sounds and looks kinda off putting ngl
Maybe keep opinions to yourself Dave, thats insanely boring and nonsensical.
No a lot of killers can use their powers for downs. This killer is gonna go the way of legion, and no one will play him after the initial release. Another garbage killer from DBD. Those perks are garbage too.
Loved the content, keep it coming!
"Wesker but you feel like making your life harder" killer.
Well this guy looks fun. Just leaping around like a bloody Spider-Man
A much worse Spider-Man sadly
@thedoomslayer5863 Still looks fun. Powerful maybe not, since that end lag looks lo~~~~ng, but still fun
That brown add-on turns the Tokyo Ghoul into the Tokyo Drift
I think the Ghoul should gain some sort of buff when enraged that helps him M1 and finish people off since he doesn't get much value from it after injuring every survivor
My thoughts exactly, If they gave him the increased vault speed that they said that he has (Its really just quicker to go into the vault, not the vault animation itself) they could even have it where he passes through the vault entire like Vecna, or maybe even allowing M1 out of the jump, or the improved environmental mobility to move up and down areas. There's a lot of stuff they could add to make the "enraged state" feel ACTUALLY enraged and threatening.
You can leap and hit survivors still, you just can't hit them with your power. If you leap and go on cooldown mid leap (from ending it yourself), timing it right lets you hit pretty quickly after landing next to them. Your recovery for going into cooldown is very short. Its not like missing a wesker dash and them making it to a pallet.
i don't know anything about tokyo ghoul, but i'll give my opinion
His concept isn't very original nor his power very unique, however it does looks quite fun using his tentacles to move around and mastering the momentum after pullling himselft foward.
At the end of the day, all that matters is if it's fun or not using using the killer, and in my opinion it does look fun
I'm super biased, I'm going to main Kaneki regardless of how good or how fun he is. However, he is still SUPER fun to play. I don't wesker or blight, but I do like Kaneki's power.
Now that they’re licensing anime series there’s a high chance we can get Sukuna, Meruem or Dio
Dio would be crazy lol, JOJO survivor.
Kira would be a better choice
Jesus i hope they dont touch any other beloved series. Dead by bordem. If you love skill checks this is the game for you 💀
I used to watch tokyo ghoul. I watched the first 2 seasons when it came out. The only thing I have to criticize about is the whole not being able to go higher up floors and things. Considering in the anime he is extremely mobile. It would be amazing to see someone on the freddy map in the two story building and he uses his power to just climb up through the window.
And for cosmetics I wonder if they are gonna let you play as the other ghouls, or on release they will release a Rize skin considering on how Kaneki gets his power from her through surgery.
The true killer was the mess of a second season...

Edit: Well, I was wrong. Killer is insanely good and a lot of fun. Granted the PTR run was plagued with issues and bugs but I didn't think he'd be as good as he is after those were addressed, but he is. I still stand by my opinion on his perks though.
As awesome as it is to see Kaneki in DBD, I have to say I'm extremely disappointed with pretty much everything about him. Like Legion, great at injuring and terrible at everything else. And I have to say, these may be the worst perks released on a killer I've ever seen.
I feel like they deliberately made him awful just to see if Tokyo Ghoul popularity is enough to profit with. I for one won't be getting him, he honestly looks like he sucks.
Totally sucks, it's just such a boring power, honestly. And what's the point of this rage mechanic? All it gives you is a 3rd dash? Rlly?
yall it's playtesting he might be buffed on release
They took an anime character and made him incredible boring. That is an accomplishment
His perks seems fine, just not inline with is power much.
However, you can get very free and easy downs with his power. You just can't dash to kill people like blight or wesker can. I don't want another nurse or blight either, I just want a fun killer (and he is one). He is by no means weak or awful lmao.
@@darkopendragon Well, I definitely have to disagree with his perks. They seem absolutely terrible to me but I could be missing some potential.
As for just wanting a fun killer, I get that. And if I'm being fair, I think he could actually be pretty fun. At least, in the short term. Being able to Spider-Man your way through a map is arguably a pretty fun mechanic. But, I suspect that novelty will wear off very quick once you start struggling to secure kills. Right now on the PTR, setting aside the entire arsenal of buggy interactions plaguing the servers atm, he seems relatively 'okay', but once you start playing against even remotely decent survivors, I see him being more frustrating than anything else. Just another Legion and if I'm being perfectly honest, probably a slightly worse Legion at that (at least as he is on the PTR).
But, if there's one thing we know for sure, it's that there will be some adjustments before he goes to the live servers. As to how significant those adjustments will be, that's impossible to say. Maybe they'll tweak him enough make him viable but right now? He seems fun, but bad. Very bad. And I'm not entirely convinced the 'fun' factor will stick around that long either.
You're half right. Kanake isn't a full ghoul. He's what is referred to as a Half Ghoul and they are usually artificially created by taking a kanage and surgically inserting it into a human being. His kanage is a "donation" from the very ghoul that tried to eat him. Ghouls usually reproduce with other ghouls, so natural half ghouls are exceptionally rare. And not just because of birthing complications, half ghouls have quite the intoxicating scent to those more keen in smell. And their flesh is supposedly just as intoxicating. Meaning if a half ghoul survives birth, they're likely to get eaten by full ghouls.

@ Fire up 2: electric boogaloo
@ Fire up plus that perk
Just use light born if you are trying to counter flashlights
@ but it’s funnier to have fire up and fire up 2
Parasyte the maxim coming when!?!? shinichi would be such a cool survivor and the killer could be really any strong parasyte host
they tryna hide that houndmaster release or what
Is it just me or is this killer terribly underpowered? Legion is already considered one of the weakest killers because their power doesn't work on injured survivors, so after you get everyone injured you're playing as angsty knife teen. But Legion's power is much easier to injure people with, to the point of being almost guarenteed. It can injure multiple people in one use, without going to cooldown. It also has decent mobility, even tho it's not as much as The Ghoul. AND Legion's power has built in information. This killer can do what Legion can do but slower and without info.
The way to play him is to M1 THEN use power, Otz did it all wrong. You cannot down a marked survivor, so you're not supposed to mark them initially. The grab-attack is almost a guarantee damage ignoring obstacles, you can't M1 then immediately down a survivor with Legion's Power.
@@lkc101nope you cannot down a survivor if they’re already injured but not marked with your power, please watch some more gameplay
@@lkc101wait thats actually so smart what
@@lkc101 The power cant down at all so this is definitely incorrect.
@@Reinami66it doesn’t say that anywhere on the power though ? All it says is that it can’t down a marked survivor
Spiderman in DBD, I never thought I’d see the day
Spiderman if he wasn't able to get higher than two feet off the ground.
@@devoteeofmediocrity821So... Carnage?
Red tentacles and crazy laugh give me Carnage vibes
legion is going to love that new hex
Iirc his frenzy hits don't count as basic attacks right? I haven't played in FOREVER, just watched.... So I'm not sure if they changed it.
@@Kiwi-pd5mkI'm quite sure they don't, yeah. So, useless.
@@Kiwi-pd5mkNope, you’re right
@@Kiwi-pd5mk you are right, i dont think they count, sad legion noises

I love doing this 😂
Not sure if he mentioned it, if you landed right on an unmarked survivor after a leap, you could damage them and choose NOT to leave a mark, then you can leap IMMEDIATELY to down the survivor because they are UNMARKED.
So thats what that confirmation mark input means, thats huge for kaneki tbh, and also rewards skilled players, you can either
a) mark everyone so they have to mend and you get a lot of value of your rage state
Or
b) You can choose to only mark a few survivors and try to get a quick down as a pseudo m1 killer, but you run the risk of running out of time in rage mode.
This is not true. You cannot down survivors with the leap ever, marked or not-- it only ever puts Deep Wound on them. The mark means they're not targetable, but even if a survivor is not marked and injured you cannot down them.
Have you tested this in game yet, haven’t seen anyone else talking about it
@@partystarter8041 I just tested there, sadly this doesn't work. Whether you confirm the right click input after grabbing a survivor or not, Kaneki will damage and mark the survivor either way. Feel like they have to change something to make the power work on injured survivors, if they can do it for Wesker why not my boy Kaneki
@@marccheckley6935 Yeah, maybe make it where hitting them again after they are marked will significantly reduce the time they have to mend
I swear. I thought this was a Joke, a mere ruse. But no. I love it lol
The disrespect he's not a vampire he's a Ghoul
Lets cancel him thats unacceptable
Had to scroll to find this one cause OMFG,, made me REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE,, the inaccuracy of that statement is wild.
Nobody fkn cares.
"FNAF doesn't make sense for the universe" mfs when you can 2v8 with Ken Kaneki and the Armored Titan.
I wonder if we’ll get a Rize skin, since her kagune is literally the same as kaneki‘s
It's been confirmed in a press release that she'll be a legendary cosmetic.
a anime killer opens so many other ideas for killers like hellsing with Alucard, death note with light/Shinigami, any main JOJO villain, HxH and hisoka, makima will make thousands
Honestly, DIO or Kira would be fire as a JoJo villian in DBD
@@redfvulpesDiavolo would be better than dio tbh
@@bbdawgjr9804Kira would be the best because than you can get his awesome monologue every time he moris.
That's why adding anime is always odd to anything that isn't anime themed in the first place. It opens Pandora's box of nerds who want to see everybody else getting into their weird taste. Gaslighting them that it isn't a degenerative art obsessed with minors

What? Tokyo ghoul content in 2025 AND it isn’t complete and utter garbage? How is this possible!?
