@@Konomidebanshouwashikisesuryou’re so quirky and funny and unique

This confused SO MANY people who had no clue why the hell that happened and didn't realize the connection.

the subreddit still gets confused people asking about it from time to time

@@kor8rok The first time I got the special intro was around the time a new killer was about to be announced, maybe it was Chucky, and because I was mashing the keys to skip to the menu as fast as possible, I was convinced the TV static was a teaser for the next killer. Oh well, it wasn't, but I still loved finding the special intro so many months after the release of Sadako.

And Cope!! We thought this would take like 45 min and it went on for 3 hours lmfao.

​@@notOtzdarvaListening to this in the gym. Getting those gains and learning more about the game. Like any real man should

You really stole Poppt1's profile picture? get a life.

@@notOtzdarva TRUE!! I love Cope for his incredible knowledge and hilarious dry humor

These long videos are often much less work than the highly edited or researched 10 minute ones 😂 Thank you though!!

Oh, I didn't forget that crap. That whole wretched era of DBD sticks out to me most sharply among all others. The hit-refund coding was introduced because (at that time) Behaviour said their #1 priority was narrowing the gaps in win rates for two categories: Solo-Queue Survivors vs SWFs; and PC vs Console players. The Venn-overlap of these two, the Solo--Queue Console Survivors were their largest growing player demographic at the time, and were given top priority for that end. The end goal was to make matchmaking more fair in general by reducing the heavy amount of variance within the survivor win rates; noble-sounding stuff, no? Weeelll...the problem was two fold. First, they planned on accomplishing that goal via the same flawed method they had always employed up to that point in DBD's existence: Make the killer-mains suffer by giving Survivors far more leeway than they should have for a time, then placate the Killer mains by giving them some new toy to play with. Going by prior history of the game, it might have even worked, except they chose to do this just after they started training up a new automated MMR system. Since this subject is quite technical and outside the usual common public knowledge, I will oversimplify the matter by saying that matchmaking systems are notoriously unstable during their first few months of operation and can easily spiral out of control when large numbers of players suddenly leave the game. Well, guess what happened between October of 2021 and Jan of 2022? Yup. Half the players quit DBD. But why? Simply put: The absolutely wretched state of the game combined with the agony caused by the new MMR made killer mains quit in droves. This in turn spiked the already taxing queue times for survivors, who then left out of boredom and/or frustration. This is a classic death spiral for any online game's matchmaking system, and it got quite severe because BHVR just chose to ignore the underlying problems for several months in hopes that it would self-stabilize. I won't mince words and simply state the fallout: From Oct 2021 to Feb of 2022, DBD lost over 75% of its players. Silver lining: It finally forced BHVR to finally stop taking its killer mains for granted, leading to the more stable game we have now. That said, it's still far from fully recovering back to its peak back in Sept of 2021.

@@atmosdwagon4656the dead hard, ds, unbreakable, adrenaline meta will forever haunt me

@@HigherDarkness best meta, countless times better than the cancer that is ftp+buclkle up

@@HigherDarkness Yeah, that was the 2019-2020 "Object Meta" where survivors had so many second chances that it was ridiculous. Survivors would often just do generators in the killer's face after their first hook because very few killers had innate powers that countered DS+Unbreakable, and it lasted way, way too long. M1 killers without hyper-mobility were utterly porked between garbage map generation that routinely placed strong tiles in a row or punished anyone without range. (basically, every killer but Pyramid Head, Nurse, Spirit and later, Blight) had no real chance without the survivors playing like panicked chickens. And then there were Keys. How on Earth Otz and Cope forgot about keys enabling 4-man hatch escapes after only 4 generators is beyond me. (the first video of Otz to be suggested to me by YT showcased everything completely fucked about this era of DBD) The only reason DBD endured that garbage meta is because the knowledge base for the average player was much lower back then and the old 'pip' based rank system was infinitely more stable back then than New MMR was when Boon: CoH Meta was dominant.

No doubt!!

Couldn't agree more. Both the first Resident Evil and Silent Hill chapter were revolutionary for the game and brought in a massive amount of new players. I'm also pretty nostalgic for both as playing during the release of those chapters with my best friend during the summer are some of the fondest memories I have from that time

I got into dbd because of resident evil! My boyfriend begged me for years and years to just try it and I wouldn’t, then we played re5 and re4 back to back and he was like “you know, you can play as Leon in dead by daylight and I’m pretty sure there’s a Sheva skin” and now I play more than him

​@@izzyreads2930I would have 10k hours in fucking Pac-man if you could play as Leon in it, I don't blame you.

Props to you for taking breaks! I do something similar and it makes me excited to play when I come back

I skipped like 3 chapters and I’m ready to grind again. Breaks are def needed for this game.

Bit of a late response but nowadays it's generally assumed that the fact that there are crows in south america is supposed to simbolize the Entities influence over the Artist early on her life already, its called subtle foreshadowing

@@davidatlas123 Yeah, the meaning of the crows has been very apparent from the start. :) But I went to school for literature and have been writing and editing for 20 years, and if BHVR had known this fact about South America, they would've definitely mentioned it in Carmina's bio (referring to the crows as strange, for example). They've recently done it in the current tome, but I believe that's more of a correction on their part than something they envisioned over two years ago. But that's just good writing: acknowledging when something doesn't make sense, even subtly, and adding that to the tone, especially in horror writing. When something like that is a basic detail that's inconsistent with your premise and you don't acknowledge it, it implies you probably didn't know the detail to begin with. That's the equivalent of an American writer telling an European story where opossums are present; it's very odd and out of place, even if thematically relevant, and should be acknowledged as such.

@@morganwilliams7717 Fair points all, still tho I'd wager that on some works the foreshadowing of details is not made explicit by a "wink wink" type of text of "and the crows were odd btw, theres no crows in the region" Consider it as a sorta fridge easter egg where some readers would know the fact and realize its the entities meddling(due to it being tied to crows), and those who don't notice, well it doesnt change the narrative for them I wouldn't say that acknoledging it alone mades it good writing, its different formulas, specially considering the ambiguity used in horror themes, my memory is a bit vague rn but iirc in the mountains of madness novel theres mentions of penguins in an area where its not their natural habitat. In story this is to imply/foreshadow how the eldritch creature moved them around for experimentation as they later show mutated, but theres no line saying "How odd, penguins aren't native of this place", it's different ways of storytelling i feel Ofc tho we can never know since theres not been an official commentary if it was intentional or not, and they've done some very poor lore before so it wouldnt be impossible

@@davidatlas123 Yeah, when I said to imply it, it's more along the lines of it makes sense for young Carmina to not know what a crow is and call it a strange bird instead. Good writers wouldn't never shove the details down your throat by specifically saying it's not native to the region. To me, it was that first casual mention of her childhood self feeding the crow that gives away that BHVR probably didn't fact check. But either way, we'll never really know, and the Entity's influence is clearly there regardless. Also don't know if you remember it, but in the initial launch of the chapter, her lore mentioned after her hands were cut off, she struggled against her wrist restraints. BHVR's writing that chapter was a bit sloppier than the majority of previous ones, at least the lore I'd read prior.

Comedy king.

Be careful with the boss seeing you watching vids

At night? Is there a sneaky monster that stalks you while working?

Agreed, we didn't even talk about that!!

What is hodgepodge?

Otz. You aren’t a close friend to him so calling him by his government is just weird dude.
