Dead by Daylight

Dead By Daylight is an asymmetrical horror game that allows you to either play as one of four survivors working to repair generators to escape a place of nightmares, or as the killer hunting down those survivors.

The game overall is very enjoyable when playing as both a survivor and a killer. There are a good variety of unique characters, especially when it comes to killers, and just as much variety when it comes to locations and perks each character can use.

However, the game is not very new player friendly. The matchmaking system, like with most PvPs, has its flaws and can lead new players to face off against experienced players, and this is where the game's main problems shine. As a new player, each survivor starts off only able to use a very limited number of perks at their weakest state, the same goes for killers, making it especially more difficult for new players to be on the same play field as veteran players. On top of that, progression is extremely slow, and much of the game's content is stuck behind pay-walls - most survivors and killers, and thus their perks are locked unless you purchase them individually, this also applies to cosmetics for all characters.

Perhaps the least enjoyable part of the game is its repetitive nature. Every game is the same, the killer hunting down four survivors and the four survivors working together to get generators completed so they can escape. There is little variation in the gameplay which can quickly bore players.

The best part of the game is how well it recreates the atmosphere of the Horror genre. The locations, killers, and use of sound and lighting, help create a spine-chilling atmosphere that makes you feel like you're apart of a Horror film. The game has also been working more to create intriguing lore for each of their characters, but this is more of an optional experience that requires a lot of effort from the player's end to be able to discover. And on the other side, playing as a killer is really fun, at least until the toxic playerbase comes to play.

Unfortunately, like most PvPs, people simply can't enjoy this game without sending you mockery and threats, especially if you're a minority.

Dead by daylight is a game where you find five generators that you must fix in order to escape but you have to do these tasks with someone who's trying to kill you! You can play as killer and upgrade them aswell as survivors. This game may sound repetitive but what makes it not is because there are different maps, killers and skill levels of each killer you come up against so it can really become a challenge for killers and survivors.

Once you are on a hook slowly dying waiting for a fellow survivor helps you out there is one small complication.. camping and tunneling. Killers not leaving the final generator! Killers not leaving your mate that is on a hook. This can be quite frustrating but what helps prevent this is that if you camp the other survivors have bought time to finish generators to escape but that can't always fix the problem because some people are obsessed with getting a single kill.

Some killers may be hot garbage, some killers may be decent and some may be overpowered and frustratingly unfair! I do think survivors deserve more of an advantage but you learn to get around it and improve. Match making can take a reasonable amount of time when your a survivor but when your a killer it sometimes takes up to 10 minutes!

Overall I really love this game! There are a few annoying features that need to be patched but they're not too much of a game changer and I strongly recommend playing this game with your friends because it is so much fun!

Beautiful gameplay and beautiful graphics but I wish there was a story campaign for it. This Brings another new type of horror into video games.

Awesome game. Does not get boring. Except when the killers are camping. :) Also very nice to play with friends. They also keep updating with new maps and characters. You also get specials coins to buy them. So you don't necessarily need to spend money on it.

This game is great, but I think they should add a game mode where there's 4 killers and 16 survivors, with one gigantic map and 12 generators or so. That'd be a lot of fun.
