The reason why the licensed Survivors and Killers are locked behind a paywall is due to licensing itself. Behaviour Interactive has addressed this before, that they would like to make everything free to play, however due to licensing, they have to put a price tag on the licensed Survivors and Killers. The game does get graphical updates every now and then, but the devs rather focus on squashing bugs and pushing out updates on gameplay mechanics than the visuals. Survivors and Killers that are not licensed are unlockable by playing the game, however the amount of ingame currency for said characters take a long time to earn. Perks on the other hands will always be available for everyone whenever they're available in the Shrine of Secrets.
The game has a lot of potential but is ran by people that don't have a vision and only care about themselves and what they think is best for the game. I have played since 2016 Beta and have more than 10,000 hours of actual playtime on this (my personal account) and previously worked at BHVR on the game. If this was years ago.. I would have recommended the game without any question. However, with the game's current state and direction, I could never recommend it to anyone under any circumstance. It's just going downhill and that's the reality of it. They are partnering with anyone in an attempt to stay relevant and keep quarterly stats up but that only lasts for a week and then it's back to being a dead game for the most part. If you ever decide to work at this company, just note that your personal account is at high risk of being permanently banned if you are accused of anything and are wrongfully terminated as a result. They will not only ban your dev account (which is fine) but your personal account as well, which is actual bullsh*t and petty. I'm living proof of this. They won't conduct a proper and thorough investigation behind their claims before terminating an employee and will sh*t all over your 6-years of dedicated gameplay, time spent and work into a product that you once loved and cared for to the point that you even took a job to work on the game to make it better not just for yourself but for the community who also loves the game. Clueless company making clueless decisions on a game that they're clueless about since they don't play it. I was one of the literal few at the company who has more than 4,000 hours of actual gameplay in the game. P.S. they still haven't fixed the IP leak vuln that has been the cause of people being DDoSed, doxed, swatted and much more. They've known about it for over 2 years now and refuse to fix something so simple while knowing what the root cause of it is and know what exactly to fix. Just to give you an idea of how little they care... I brought this up before and during my time working there and it was never fixed. We're now going into 2023 with this vulnerability that's been in the game for over 4+ years. Still think BHVR cares about you now? Their main focus is and always has been to make money and that's why this issue has never been addressed even though their own Fog Whisperers like Otzdarva, Elix and many others have questioned why they haven't fixed it yet and are victims to these issues. Their priorities are all over the place and have no idea how to run a game company let alone keep the community safe. It's pretty evident that these are the facts. They would rather ban innocent people than to solve the huge security risks and flaws in the game. It's disgusting and this type of "behaviour" should not be condoned. I'm more surprised Valve/Steam is even allowing the game to remain playable on their platform considering the company refuses to fix these issues that is allowing these events take place. Cheaters? I won't get into that. Everyone knows the answer to this already. The company looks at them as paying customers that deserve respect (direct quote from an employee that's in a leadership role btw) and would rather keep them around than get rid of them entirely. dbd in 2022 is TRASH
yes! its worth playing it i have 2k hours on steam and its the game i always come back!! it has so much joys both sides and OMG this game has lots of things going on, the lore of the community its what keeps this game alive hahah its so much fun to make fun of devs, to try new perks after new patches... i love this game so much
BHVR is a business, they need to make money to exist, and licenses aren't often cheap. That is why they can't make licensed characters available for in-game currency. I obviously have no inside into their contracts with the right holders, but they have to at least financially be able to afford the license. Any character that isn't licensed is purchasable with their in-game currency (iridescent shards), but licensed characters can't be made available that way; otherwise, the risk of it being a financial loss would be too high.
This game is actually in full release at the time of recording this video. We accidently said the wrong thing. Sorry for the misinformation.

Although Dead By Daylight has been fully released, at time it really does still feel like an Early Access game xD
