So while I can agree with most of the list, one I definitely can't agree with is Doctor, especially when you hear him again and again. He's not whimpering in pain from being stunned by a pallet, he's *laughing* in spite of being stunned by a pallet. His madness is to such a degree that he's enjoying the pain he's being given and laughing because of it. If you think of his stun like that, it makes him feel even scarier.
You know, you are absolutely right and that's 100% more in line with his character. I just can unhear the whimper though 😭 That makes a lot more sense though if he's laughing. I appreciate the feedback and thanks for watching!
I came to post this as well, it's very "tee-hee, that tickles!", like he's almost getting off on it. Makes me kinda uncomfortable. Clown's laugh always sounded to me like he's making a show of laughing it off and pretending it's not getting to him when in reality he's pissed.
Thank you for sharing, I did not know that when I recorded! That's a neat bit of trivia and definitely fits his character. Thank you for watching and commenting!
@@theARoberts Trickster actually has multiple stun sounds. In some of them he curses in Korean, in others he simply moans, and there is one in which he literally laughs despite being hit by heavy wood.
A couple of other people have pointed out that it's a laugh too, which I'd agree is probably what the dev's were aiming for. It just sounds like a whimper to me and I can't shake that thought every time I hear it now😂But yeah, I think you are more likely correct. Thanks for watching!
Even though I may be a little biased as a Huntress main… I LOVE her tantrums. Really plays into her lore that she still has the mind of a child after so long. Cheers for the video!
Someone's Already noted it but Trickster does Swear at people in Korean when Stunned. I'll put a few of his lines here: "Jegiral!" = "Shit!" "JengJang!" = "Damn it!" "Bileomeogeul!" = "Goddammit!" "Ah SSi!" = "Ah, fuck!" "Jjajeungna..." = "How Annoying..."
The Pig’s feels immensely out of character for Amanda but I… cannot help but love it. I don’t know, I can’t imagine her sounding any different. It’s also one of the most human-sounding of the stun noises, which I find chilling. I like it.
Ghostface sounds more like he was tired of having to deal with even more shit from the Survivors. I think it makes sense for Ghostface since he finds the chase fun and is annoyed by being blocked
I like that take! I also always heard it almost as if he found the gall of this damn Survivor literally breathtaking. Like, "Oh, you're a BOLD one aren't you? I like that, I love to down the feisty ones..." it's creepy just like he is and it's perfect I think for him. Makes me want to just... game them so much harder, just to get the one that got away.
I think Dredge's makes sense because Dredge isn't really the mass of flesh that's coming for you. It's a meat puppet that the actual monster is using to move around. I don't think it would make sense for it to make a sound of pain or anything like that because you're basically just slamming a piece of wood against meat. I don't think the other voices should cry out either because those aren't really the Dredge's noises. Those are its victims.
That is an excellent explanation, thank you for sharing. I think I'd still rank it down for being less than interesting, but you're right, it at least fits its character then. Even as its victims, do you think they could still react because they are now part of the Dredge? Thank you for watching!
So I 100% agree. To be honest, not sure why I said what I said in the video 😂 I think I meant it still sounds a little "ghosty" but yeah, he's sighing out of frustration
@@theARoberts I got where you were coming from with the "playing a character" thing, he does sound quite ghostly for sure but I heard more of a sigh that sounds somewhat ghost-like
Personal opinion, Huntress, Pig and Demo are S tier, from both sides. Hearing the tantrum and little squeaks from the other two is all around one of my favorite things
As a Killer main, I primarily considered things from the Killer perspective, but it makes sense that some of these would be great from the Survivor side too.
I’ve always thought the Doctor had one of the best stun sounds. I love how he just laughs it off. That’s so scary! You stun him and he just laughs at it. So creepy.
I know that's exactly what the devs were going for, which you're right, makes it very creepy. I just can't get it out of my head that to me it sounds like a whimper 😅
Also, for Pinhead I think it makes sense. Pinhead enjoys suffering, so being hit by a pallet is pain for him but also joy (right? Never saw the movie.) As for The Dredge, although not visible from the killer's PoV, The Dredge recoils into his shadowy void after a stun almost like a snail (which can be argued that it's more pethatic, and also not audible) Also I'd like to point out that The Trickster has a specific voice line after being stunned, basiclly dropping an F-bomb to the survivor. Although RU-vid wouldn't like hearing that
You are right, though I've never seen the movies either. It's fitting that he doesn't make a negative noise to the pallet stun, but I still expected more than a deep moan I guess. That makes a lot more sense for the Dredge then, thanks for the info. I have yet to see him from the Survivor experience myself. I did not realize that about Trickster, but that is good to know! Thanks again for watching!
Myers is one of my favorites, he's silent in all the movies besides his breathing and the pure physical form of evil, and a wooden pallet on his toe makes him go "AURRG"
I'm not sure if it's true, but I've noticed that when the huntress gets stunned late game her reaction is as if she's more mad that her prey escaped versus early game she reacts a bit calmer.
I believe you are correct. I had assumed it was based on the number of times you were stunned but I hadn't considered it might be tied to time elapsed in the trial, great thought!
Another fantastic video and your intro was extremely gripping! Maybe with pinhead the developers/ programmers got really into making all the animations and forgot about the pallet stun right up until the last second and were like, "Yeah, let's just make him . . . . moan?"
Thank you sir! I appreciate the feedback! LOL yeah, it did seem really lacking compared to his other stuff. I know he's supposed to enjoy pain so I didn't expect an "ouch" or anything, but something more than a sleepy groan 😂
If you do a few more takes on Slinger’s stun noise, it start as a decrease in volume and then ramps up like huntress. Personally one of my favorites, second only to Ghostface.
That's how you interpret Doctor's stun sound? I was always under impression that he doesn't wimper, but rather giggles. And that fits Doctor's very creepy aesthetics quite well IMO That, and the giggle itself is pretty funny
This isn’t really the same, but when it comes to sounds the killers make when a survivor wiggles off of their shoulders and stuns them, Huntress’s is my favorite. It motivates me to absolutely destroy the survivors because she sounds so mad
I actually did not realize these were different 🤣 I'll have to pay more attention. But I can definitely see what you're saying about Huntress if it's anything like her pallet stun.
@@theARoberts I think she has a bunch of different ones, so it’s hard to discern one from the other sometimes! It’s one of the ones where you described her as sounding more angry. She kind of groans and then growls dramatically in frustration lol
LOL I'm glad you liked it! 🤣 Thanks! Pretty sure I got the idea from GG. I always appreciate your support my friend! Thank you! And congrats to YOU on 800!!! 🎉
Yeah, another viewer mentioned they think they were going for some kind of distorted/electrocuted laugh, as if he's enjoying the pain. I think that was their intent but it just sounds weird to me and not intimidating. Thanks for watching and commenting!
I love Ghostface's cuz he just sounds so done lol. Some other killers get frustrated too but in a more angry "You little shit!!" kind of way while Ghostface sounds like: "*sigh* Really?"
The doctor should’ve had that sinister laugh when he gets stunned, that way it’ll make him a bit more intimidating even after being stunned. I would agree with what you’ve said, that the Doctor could arguably be the most intimidating killer in the game, but the whimper after being stunned, doesn’t suit his characteristics.
I fully believe the devs intended it to be a giggle when he gets stunned, but I cannot unhear it as a whimper 😅 But a sinister laugh would have been better, I agree
You forgot Cenobites voice line! He says “oh no, don’t do that!” Just like when you solve the box sometimes. And it sounds like he’s being sarcastic and likes it 😭 literal high A or even S tier without a doubt
I feel like Dredge's lack of reaction is what makes him creepy. Usually the pallet harms the killers and gives a reaction but he doesn't really give one and continues
I'm super behind but thank you! I do try to respond to as many comments as I can. Means a lot that y'all would take the time to watch my content and leave a comment, so I like to engage with as many as possible.
I don’t know the movies where Pinhead is in but because he’s torturing his body with pins and cuts. I think he doesn’t mind getting hit from pallets because he’s immune to the feeling of pain.
Oh I agree that he wouldn't mind it from a pain standpoint, because my understanding is that his kind equates pain and pleasure together (I also have not seen the movies), I think I just expected more of a reaction overall, not necessarily a pained one. That said, it's been a while since I recorded this so I can't actually remember what I said in the video 😂
Also for pinhead - I agree with the placement but he makes no sound because cenobites where sadomasochistic alien demon things to the point where they’re numb to pain and pleasure
So I 100% know the devs were aiming for Doctor to be laughing out of enjoyment, I just for whatever reason first heard it as a whimper and can't get that out of my head 😅And that makes total sense for Pinhead, thanks for sharing.
Oh you're 100% right, that's what the devs intended for sure. I just heard it as a whimper myself, and have never been able to get that out of my head 😂
@@theARoberts gotcha just feels like it adds more perspective like Onryo likes like she’s crying and Dredge goes inside his fog like a turtle but love your videos keep up the work
I like imagining ghostie's is a sigh of annoyance, just "ugh this again". So funny to me. Have you considered ranking stuns from survivor pov? Some killers have unique stun animations compared to the killer pov.
I honestly can't remember if I just did a bad job explaining it or changed my mind after the fact, I know objectively it's intended it to be a laugh... but the first time I heard it I heard a whimper instead and I've never been able to unhear that.
Just as many people said Trickster does curse in Korean when getting stunned but he also sounds like he gets off on this because one of his lines when getting stunned is him saying "Dope" or "Awesome" i think because i'm not really good with Korean
I do know he has some positive ones in there, can't remember what triggers them, it's been a while since I've looked at the translations of all his lines.
pinhead is s tier and as someone who likes him you should know why bec it fits him perfectly he is a demon of pain and pleasure so anything that hurts is good for him thats also why he moans he enjoys the pain
@theARoberts Example, Nemesis looks like he's been punched, Wesker has a chance for his sunglasses to fall of and quickly put back on, and Dredge goes into his black fog and more
Since I don't own all the Legendary characters, I don't typically rank those. And all of the non Legendaries you listed and William Birkin were not released at the time that I published this video 🙂
I'm glad to hear from a Doc main that you agree with me! I know BHVR means for it to be a giggle, as if he's getting pleasure from the pain, but I've never been able to unhear the whimper 😂
If you could update the list, where would mr. wesker be? I admit I was sad when I watched tye video and saw it was pre project W since I love his pallet stuns.
I may update this eventually. His is probably A tier for me. I tend to feel more motivated to get back in the fight than discouraged. He also sounds pretty peeved 😂
I am sorry but Huntress sounds like an angry teen then an actual killer lol. I would put Doctor in S because you know damn well with that laugh, if you get caught, you gonna experience 10 years of torment and pain. Ghostface sounds straight disappointed that you stunned him. Hes like ,,Since you have done that I cant you walk free now,,. Smaller brother of the twins sounds horrifying and would even make it S. I would swap most higher rankings with lower rankings to be honest. But that is just an opinion of a non DBD player.
You're actually spot on with Huntress, she's got the mind of a child so it really is a tantrum she's throwing. So many have pointed out that Doctor's is probably a laugh which I agree is exactly it, but it just sounds like a whimper to me so it's not intimidating at all. That said, he does have another laugh that's 100x more terrifying and he's easily the most disturbing one of them all as a whole. LOL I'm going to think of that now every time I get stunned as Ghost Face 🤣I agree Victor is S, but I figured I'd judge them together and average them out. I love hearing your opinions, that's why I love these lists, we will all feel differently about them. Thank you for watching!
That's what I've always assumed it was supposed to be. A lot of others have also pointed out that it can sound like he's enjoying the pain as well, which adds to his horror. While I agree that is all true, for some reason that sound is now stuck in my head as a whimper and I can never hear anything else 😅
@@Echo-22-538 Honestly can't remember where I ranked it in the video, I wasn't saying I didn't like it. I just always love to hear why viewers hold the opinions they do 😁
@@theARoberts Well, Dredge's organic parts retract into its... pocket dimension, I think it is, Hag gets dropped to the ground (as does Demo). Those are the only ones I can come up with from the top of my head, but yeah.
@@theARoberts i saw your previous tier lists so i know that plague and huntress are your favorites. if you didnt put them intentionally in s tier then sorry.
@@ma_man All good. This was so long ago I honestly can't remember why I didn't put any others in S-tier. I've been accused of being too uncritical in a lot of my past videos so this may have been me trying to be more selective 😂😂
