    Survivor sided but when you master a good killer you will feel like a god, nice dlc/collabs, good graphics, tension when playing with survivor and good controls

    The Killers are so op and victims are so brainless, victms are needed to a little bit upgrade.

    This game just like many multiplayer games has high-highs and very low-lows. Playing this game competitively can be an absolute mess and you'll find yourself stressing out more than relaxing but setting lower expectations and playing more casually can lead to a lot of enjoyment. Games vary and matchmaking can be weird at times but overall good. Friends are also a great time on this game asThis game just like many multiplayer games has high-highs and very low-lows.

    Its such a great idea and I do not believe this game will die anytime soon. Killers and survivors with so many different options for who to play as and so many stats and builds. Its a really well made game and loads of fun.

    Эта игра просто великолепна во всех аспектах. Не побоюсь назвать эту игру лучшей в своем жанре. Игра постоянно пополняется контентом в виде персонажей, новых карт, улучшений, навыков и тд.

Цель выживших - починить пять генераторов и открыть ворота для побега. Цель маньяка - убийство всех выживших. Для всех сторон предлагаются свои средства победы. Будь то абилка убийцы, способности и навыки выживших и тд; Из-за большого количества данных средств игра становится масштабной и разнообразной. Чтобы победить маньяка, вам придется организовать слаженную работу с командой, ведь они (члены команды) - самое большое игровое преимущество для выживших. и мой вам совет, не забывайте помогать своим товарищам (оказывать мед.помощь, снимать с крюка, латать и тд) , ведь если помогать своим, то в самую трудную минуту у вас будет опора. Если обобщить все вышесказанное: не смотря на малое количество механик, игра берет своей вариативность, глубиной геймплея и разнообразием способностей, оказывающих прямое влияние на геймплей. Expand

    This game is not only incredibly addicting, but it's also one of the most fun games I've ever played.

    Dead by Daylight still holds up as a great arcadey horror game in 2022. New killer,survivors and maps are added every few months, and the game has a grindy aspect that makes it fun to play constantly, trying to level up your characters to unlock perks, or bloodpoints and iridescent shards.One of it's biggest problems though is it's cheating problem, but it is much smaller than a few monthsDead by Daylight still holds up as a great arcadey horror game in 2022.

    Да, у игры высокий порог вхождения, да, есть немного рутины, но она все равно мне очень понравилась. Возможно это из-за наличия убийц из ужастиков, кто знает :р

    Game is very interesting and I think a lot of people do not understand the how game work. And a lot of problems in game is created by developers but dbd community is very good and know better game than developers

    This is the most adictive multiplayer game i've ever played. I can't just have a match pr two, every time i start playing i find myself spending 3-4 hours, switching between killer and survivor. Five years after it's release, the game it still fresh and fun to play.

    This game is constantly improving and being balanced. That being said, it still suffers from a lot of toxic players and quite a few bugs. With more time, more killers, more survivors, more mechanics and more patches this game could be perfect.

    Its very fun game one of my favrioute games i have around 1900 hours on the game its very fun better with freinds but stilll good by yourself. Its worth getting dlc for the game its worth it for its full price (£24.99 console £14.99 PC and free mobile)

    I love dbd. It’s boring in the beginning but once you get good it will be really fun. The problems are keys being completely broken and some bugs but all games have bugs so other than that I love it.

    A very fun game to play, espacially with friends. It takes too long to play as a Killer, but I enjoy survivor more so it s fine, but for Killer mains it sucks.

    The game is fun and it makes your heart definitely beat. There are some aspects that I don't like about the game, that's why it's a 8/10.

    - The character leveling system is weird IMO. - Every game is ranked. - You can create a character with 4 different perks from different characters. And to do that, you have to grind a bit if you want the best 4 meta build. it's strange to me,

    - Some DLC Killers have gimmicks that aren't fair.
    - Game is capped at 62 FPS (you can uncap if you edit txts) but they should improve like choosing which monitor hz I want, fps limit etc.

    Dead by daylight is a great multiplayer horror game. I've played it for a few months and I have to say that I really like it. The concept of playing 1v4 is very original, but it went out good. The only problem is the player selection system. After one update, I started playing as a 17th rank killer against survivors around 1st-6th rank. And I hated it.

    DbD is a amazing game. you can choose game, for example you can play as survivor(your mission is repair all 5 generators and save your teamate and open exit gate and....ESCAPE), or you can play as killer(your mission is hitting and down all 4 survivor and sacrifice it in a hook)

    This is a fantastic game for people who want a thrilling experience that keeps you on your toes. As a horror movie fan, I am so impressed with the killers they were able to pull into this game and how they implemented their abilities into actions and perks.

As a horror movie fan, I am so impressed with the killers they were able to pull into this game and how they implemented their abilities into actions and perks. As with all games, there are issues, but typically the dev team is quick to fix smaller issues and are constantly trying to balance the game. The way the game is set up, you will definitely become very frustrated. With this, you can either get upset and stop playing, or continue playing and get better and better with each match. The game is a hard one to balance, but figuring what perks work for you and pairing them with different items helps make the game more fun. The idea of the game is very original and I can't believe I am only just coming across it in 2020!

    To recap: The game is very fun, but there will be times when it is unfair and you get frustrated. It's a survival horror game, not fairy princess funland. I look forward to the future of this game and new characters they will bring!

    Fun and unique gameplay. Can get your adrenaline pumping at times. Only reason it isn't a 10 is because of balance issues between survivors and killers.

    Dead by Daylight is a missed opportunity. Despite an intriguing concept, the final result is flawed by a lot of small problems. You could still enjoy it, but in order to do so you should get over a terrible netcode, a grind-based progression system, and all too random rewards.

    An amazing survival horror experience and my favourite indie game so far this year; you’ll sure as hell see this one on my list of top 5 games of 2016.

    Disastrous scoring system encourages some players to cooperate with the killer instead of running from him and reduces promising gameplay to nonsense (e.g. when the killer picks you up, throws you into a trap, resets it, picks you up, throws you into a trap, resets it, picks you up, throws you into a trap, resets it, picks you up...).
