    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The game had everything to be incredible, because of greed for the company's money, the game just declined. Unbalanced game, super poorly optimized, with each update new errors arise... but they never tire of launching dlcs to make money, instead of fixing the game that looks like it will never leave pre-alpha.

Наиграл в нее 2 часа(считайте что запросил возврат средств) и рассказать что творится в топ рангах, но цели такой не ставлю, а хочу высказать впечатления новичка, и могу быть не объективным в некоторых местах. Во-первых, предметы за выжившего, которые пропадают после катки, какой уникум до этого додумался и как их получить снова, играть и качать уровни открывая заново? Бред. Во-вторых, локации, да они атмосферные и колоритные, но некоторые это тупо коридоры, в игре про побеги от маньяка, класс. В-третьих, разнообразие игры за выживших, которого я так понял нет. Помимо починки генераторов, спасание сокомандников c крюков, лечении себя и их на реакцию все и заканчивается. Последнее, это подбор матча который долгий, около 2-3 минут, для игры с онлайном 80 тысяч+. Насчет комьюнити ничего не буду говорить, так как оно наверно везде токсично. Поэтому оценка 4,5(поскольку здесь выбрать можно только целые ставлю 5). Вообще ожидал более худшего зрелища чем оказалось, и если вы хотели найти альтернативу "Пятнице 13", моё мнение, обходите стороной эту игру. Expand

    Играю в эту игру очень часто, но так же часто тупо удаляю ее, ведь это кусок неиграбельного кода, в который невозможно играть.

    It has an amazing atmosphere and concept, but the online ruins this game. I recommend you just play customs with your friends. The fact this game is 30$ but you only get 10% of the character roster also makes it not worth the money.

    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.

    This Game is Amazing. It’s an fair and funny game to play with friends. The tactics and the skill you need to have is simple and the game is noob friendly.

    I started playing DBD back in January 2017 and I loved it. It wasn´t flawless but fun af especially with friends. But I never fully committed to this game. I basically played in phases. Sometimes I cranked the hours up but between these times I stopped playing for months. Nowadays I turn it on every one to two months and stop playing after one trial. sometimes after a half. The gameI started playing DBD back in January 2017 and I loved it. It wasn´t flawless but fun af especially with friends. But I never fully committed to this game. I basically played in phases. Sometimes I cranked the hours up but between these times I stopped playing for months. Nowadays I turn it on every one to two months and stop playing after one trial. sometimes after a half. The game became an unfunny and buggy mess. All my friends who play this game are constantly permanently complaining. It's kinda annoying.
    Another big problem is the monetization. The base game is fairly priced but when it comes to skins things are getting ridiculous. But you don't have to buy them and the devs have to pay the servers. But given how bad the servers are and how unscary this so called "horrorgame" is, it´s not worth it.
    Here comes a recommendation for you if you still want to try this game: Don't buy to many DLC's at once. At first, when you don't know which of them is worth it, you can end up buying a pretty low quality killer. Also you should focus on learning one or two killers. I can imagine thath DBD with it's actual size can be quite overwhelming for new players. But a big advantage of being new to the game is that you won't recognize the most of the games flaws.
    In the case of Dead by Daylight I think it's quite important to consider how the community is treated by the developers. Because it is a constantly evolving live service game the dev's are supposed to listen to the community. The sad reallity is that they neither listen to their fans nor are they receptive to critsism. Behavior even throws content creators out of their partnerahip program if they complain about the game.

    Of course, there is no place for the faint-hearted.
    Despite the fact that the reviews of this game in Steam are "Positive", I still do not recommend playing this game.
    DBD just isn't fun. Rather, it takes time and gives almost nothing in return.
    There is no place for beginners, simply because it makes no sense.
    The players themselves are killing this game with their toxic behavior.

    It's not a bad game, but that does not mean it is not bad game. I won't be the first or last to admit that this game broke me.

    DbD já foi um jogo no qual eu coloquei em um pedestal mas nos dias atuais é um jogo no qual eu nem ao menos quero saber sobre.
    Dead by Daylight tem alguns problemas em destaque que fizeram eu ao pouco desistir do jogo onde citarei eles um a um

    Balanceamento:
    Dead by Daylight sempre foi um jogo assimétrico mas que conseguia se manter em um nível justo, porem com o passar do tempo esses balanceamentos que tinham como intenção deixar o jogo mais equilibrado, apenas ferravam ainda mais o jogo, onde muitas vezes essas mudanças eram feitas por choro dos jogadores. Onde as condições estão 100% a favor do killer ou do sobreviventes, não existindo mais um meio termo.

    Comunidade:
    O jogo em um critério artístico, o jogo tem centenas de pessoas produzindo fanarts incríveis sobre o jogo, mas tirando os artistas dificilmente você vai encontrar alguém amigável neste jogo. Com uma comunidade que se torna cada vez mais competitiva e principalmente tóxica! Onde se você joga de killer e não consegue eliminar os 4 sobrevivente você tem sua DM invadida por pessoas te chamando de "noob" e "lixo" e quando você ganha você é chamado de trapaceiro. E isso é algo que desanima os main killer , não estou dizendo que não existe killers tóxicos, mas com certeza a maior parte da comunidade tóxica do jogo se encontra nos main survival.

    Falta de conteúdo:
    Dead by Daylight foi lançado em 2016 e desde então ele segue o mesmo estilo de jogo, onde até mesmo seus eventos mais atuais nada mais eram do que você já faz no jogo só que com um visual diferente e que a cada ano o jogo se torna mais mercenário. Eu lembro que nos primeiros eventos de ano novo chinês você podia juntar uma moeda específica durante as partidas e caso você elimina-se todos os sobreviventes ou fugi-se como sobrevivente, você mantinha esse ponto que futuramente podia ser usado para trocar por um cosmético do evento de sua escolha ,sem gastar um centavo se quer!

    Not really a horror game. However, the gameplay elements are interesting enough to keep me playing the game. The game is not balanced because of the variety of perks and powers that each side can have which may make for some seemingly unfair gameplay.

    Pros

    - Private games with 4 close friends are probably the most fun you can have playing this game. - There are regular updates and events which keep the game on life support. Cons: - The ranking system is for low self esteem people who are weak-willed as you can't even be demoted. It's like spoon feeding babies. - There is STILL massive lag and discrepancy in hitboxes.

    Cons:

    - The ranking system is for low self esteem people who are weak-willed as you can't even be demoted. It's like spoon feeding babies.

    - There is STILL massive lag and discrepancy in hitboxes. Jumping over a pallet or window from a killer and moving will sometimes still allow you to be hit from afar. Huntress STILL hits you from around corners.

    - Playing with randoms is one of the worst experiences imaginable in most circumstances. Survivors will camp unhooks instead of working gens, killers will face camp and tunnel out of the whazoo, if you 4 kill as killer god help you because you'll be getting passive aggressive messages calling you trash.

    - The more killers and survivors which are released, the more of an unbalanced mess the game becomes. Ever since the perk and prestige rework the game has dramatically gone downhill.

    Unbalanced game with really overpriced dlcs, overpriced skins and overpriced price tag.

    Game's also p2w, has battle pass, and overall very much things which games f2p have even though this game isn't one of 'em.

    Playing with friends... MIGHT be fun, but if you really want to play with em, just go play move or die or any other party games.

    This game is extremely boring and repetitive. Sitting in one spot pressing m1 to do gens for 90 seconds+ is so much fun. Looping is also a lot of fun with the 5 pallets located in the map. The game fell off. After playing Texas Chainsaw Massacre for a week, I went back to dbd and it was unplayable due to how boring dbds gameplay is.
    If you play killer, you have to patrol and kick gens

    If you play killer, you have to patrol and kick gens which is boring. Unless you buy and grind dlcs so that you can get gen defense perks.
    This game values gen rushing and gen patrolling more than fun gameplay. AS killer you are punished if you chase survivors without going to gens. But are rewarded for creating a 40 minute 3 gen that is impossible to beat, and as survivor you are rewarded for gen rushing... so boring
    These days, if you dont have gen regression build or have a team that is efficient on gens you will lose, since after the first chase most of the 5 pallets in the map will be gone, meaning you will have to simply shift + w to buy time.

    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.

    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...).
