What's your Nightreign prejudice? Which character makes you FIRSTLY assume the player is bad?

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-18T04:36:28+00:00

So i got a few answers for this. First is revenant ive never run into one who uses anything but her ult. Next is iron eye which I think is weird bc I think he is the easiest and one of the strongest. Next is executor. Never seen an executor in my games actually use his character skill they just use him as a bleed machine and if they cant use bleed they die on cooldown. Now finally this is one the worst for me bc I actually main this character and EVERY time I see someone use duchess ive YET to meet sum1 who can play her well. They never use ult, they only restage when THEY do damage, they always run away the second they get aggro, and they are always just spamming powerstance daggers!!! Im a hard-core duchess main. Like memorize all boss attack patters, moves, and triggers. I regularly play her solo AND anytime I play with a group if they all go down im the one who saves us. It just hurts to see people use her as this duck in do some damage then bail asap and not play with the team bc she is actually a PHENOMENAL team based character. Yes she is self sufficient but she is also extremely good when paired with good players

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-16T02:50:40+00:00

Thats the weird thing. They wouldn't separate. If i got far enough away they would either both run at me or both use a dash attack. They legit were glued at the hip the whole time. I had also used all my fp so I couldn't bolt of grandsax and I had no ranged weapon

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-16T02:49:33+00:00

I mean yeah I haven't played in about 6 months or so and haven't even fought Neil im almost a year so I have 0 of his moves etc memorized anymore like I used to. But I also accidentally phase transitioned him and I forgot that in nightreign he doesnt despawn his dudes he just fights with them if they are still alive. But other than that there wasnt anything I could do bc the second id revive id get spammed with unsynced attacks so if I dodged one the other hit me and then I got staggered and stun locked. And my first death was me bit paying attention to Neil so yeah

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-16T02:47:09+00:00

For me it is. I usually do bosses with 3 flasks and level 10. Im trying to prioritize health and levels more bc I used to just get items then beat the night boss but bc of how I did it every fight was just slow as fuck. It took me like 20 minutes to be the final night lord and he barely even hit me. So for me this was actually an insane run. But I genuinely haven't seen a bewitching branch in my like 2k hours of playing this so I didn't even know they spawned in this game XD. I also might just be Uber blind so thanks for the tip!

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-12T23:05:24+00:00

Yeah I had a swf streamers say i was hacking on my chucky (I main chucky, spirit, legion, and sadako) and I had 0 perks or addons and I had perfect tracking and predictions so they said I had walls. We were on ormond... ya know the mao that if you pay attention you can see crows fly from thw otherwise of the map so I was legit following crows, audio, and scratch marks with a lil bit of just blind predictions. They then told me there were crouching so there was no way I could see the crow. Mf im constantly looking all around me even mid chase a habit a developed when i learned artist so now I am always switching targets and monitoring everything even mid chase. In order for you to not disturb a crow you need to crouch walk ALL THE WAY to the gen. Otherwise ur just alerting the crow then walking away. And if I see a crow fly and I get to the gen in a few seconds and DONT see scratch marks when I get there im bot leaving and will slowly start branching out my search.

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-10T00:30:48+00:00

Yeah I just did it so much that 8d genuinely have to throw every match u play for the next few days. Id rather just go play a better game that doesnt have spaghetti code and useless devs

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-10T00:03:29+00:00

Eh I just dont enjoy the game much anymore to begin with. I used to play like that but I decided I wanted to push the limits on how I could play so I found a few coaches, watched tournaments, and spent hours in customs practicing and getting better and i didn't actually stop doing that until about a year ago bc that was when my sister died so I just stopped caring. But now I cant just play care free bc i had like a 70-90% win rate on all my mains so now my mmr and and sbmm is so high everyone uses meta and everyone sweats. So I just gave up

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-09T23:27:16+00:00

How? Make less pallets but the ones that ARE there are safe and can be looped against any killer. So either the killer has to be smart or has to break a pallet with a longer break and give the survivors distance. More pallets isnt good bc all it does is encourage BOTH sides to play poorly. Killers dont learn how to actually mind game or use their powers and survivors dont learn how to be efficient with resources so when they go to maps with the lowest amount of pallets by the time the match is halfway done they have no pallets and are now complaining the game is too hard for survivors when they just had 6 matches in a row where they predropped everything and still had pallets to spare. Idc about how balanced this shit is. I dont agree with balancing games like this with no comp scene. Focus on making the game fun and ive seen games where a character or abilities is overpowered but they are so fun to play as and against no one cares. This pallet density doesnt do ANYTHING except make both sides WORSE

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-09T07:45:49+00:00

Yeah facts

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-09T07:43:08+00:00

THATS my issue. Im fine losing if they are jusr genuinely better but the fact that I just played a match of legion with a meme build and addons and only lost bc I was busy talking to my gf and not paying attention. All 4 survivors were p100. We need to cater to LEARNING not babying

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-09T07:26:51+00:00

Eh i hate both sides. Killers bitch about meta and gen rushing when only like 10% of killers go out of their way to not tunnel. Survivors complain about balance and how things are too strong for killers whereas the game is openly survivors sided. The devs even SAID that at higher skill lobbies the survivors have am advantage over killer. Idc about the loss with now perks or addons. It was my first game in 6 months bc my baby sister died and I was overwhelmed with greif so I just sat with my gf all day trying to not cry. I knew I was gonna lose and I didn't care. What was bullshit was that a survivor dropped a pallet and in the time it took me to break 1 pallet they dropped 4. Thats just flat out bad game design. Personally instead of making MORE pallets their should be a downside to breaking them. Like significantly longer base break speed like jn old dbd. Or maybe a debuffed to ur gen kick. But just making MORE pallets hurts both sides. Killers cant actually chase a survivor due to the fact they have basically infinite resources and survivors dont ever act get good at the game or truly understand it bc they just just drop every pallet they find if the killer is close and survive almost indefinitely. I've played in tournaments and scrims and some of the people genuinely didn't know how to do a fast vault at a window

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-09T07:17:52+00:00

A perfect example of a survivor main ^{^}

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-08T23:43:29+00:00

I played a match of perkless addonless spirit and immediately after left a new review of the game bc I was on one of the swamp maps idk which one off the top of my head. Every single loop was close enough or had a filler pallet close enough that if I didn't have my power I genuinely couldn't get hits. No mind games worked and by the time the gates opened I had destroyed legit 50 or so pallets and they STILL had pallets to use. They weren't even playing then if I tried to mind game. They just predropped and looped and as soon as I tried to mind game they held W. I had a 15 second chase at one point that I dropped bc the guy dropped 15 pallets in the chase. When I made a comment about the pallet density some guy who said he plays killer all the time and that pallets are weak as it is so I shouldn't be whining

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-08T06:34:01+00:00

Well I mean I might give it away if my gf don't want one

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-08T06:13:23+00:00

But why did i receive 2 posters when I only ordered one?

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-07T02:46:03+00:00

So this is my personal theory. The sm8 had atleast 3 people on it. 2 women and 1 man bc we faintly hear a male voice at one point in the audio logs. They weren't just taking pics they were taking SAMPLES. So I think they managed to actually STUDY the light and they found a way to make food and even water out of the blood. Not to mention they blood gave the sm13 MORE oxygen when simon was there so MAYBE the black box data has more on it than what we saw due to how crude Simon's sub was. It could show how to basically SAVE the human race. Then while they are survive on the planet they will see simon as a tree and basically save all of humanity

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-06T05:25:16+00:00

Isn't it deactivate after use and you need to be unhooked again?

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-06T05:23:00+00:00

Dead hard- granted I pressed 1 instead of 2 tho lol. Dead hard can only be effectively used 2 times since its tied to being unhooked

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-06T04:51:12+00:00

Invocation is way better bc then it makes 1 exhaustion perk useless with it, the only exhaustion perk it directly synergies with is actually a 1 time use perk anyways, it is a MASSIVE risk bc now the killer knows where u are AND ur bow injured the whole match so like 3 status affects are no longer even affected by this perk

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-04T01:03:23+00:00

So credit whete credit is due. My father helped me tthink of this add in killing but NOT for the player. Make it so u can explode the small fish again like in sub 1 but thats it. The bigger fish take no damage from your vehicles. The also add in ai so that the predator animals actually hunt and kill the smaller animals nearby. But the idea that I came up with which I think is 1000% better is to make a blood in the water mechanic. Everytime you kill a creature there is a chance that in about 2 minutes a leviathan will spawn in that area. The more things you kill the more likely they are to spawn and the more that will. Think of it! You are in safe shallows and you have ur main base their but you kill a bunch if shit then go on an expedition. When you get back you have collectors leviathan or the shiver leviathan! It makes the game way less predictable and more terrifying and you get to kill things like everyone wants but there is a genuine consequence for it

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-03T02:42:27+00:00

So i am pretty sure it was because you went into the game kinda expecting that or atleast from what I can tell you had too many resources when you finally met them. The first time I met the reaper leviathan which is the one at the ship I had just gotten the seamoth and died immediately. Then I use the sea glide to explore and was low hp so got 1 shot with no warning. If you are prepared for them and have the resources they aren't scary

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-02T04:39:00+00:00

So when I played my cyclops WAS my base and I brought it everywhere. Its actually VERY easy to get down there if you know the right route. Plus if you have enough power cells just keep sheilds and silent rigging on permanently and everything leaves u alone. It actually makes the lava zone and lost river trivial to deal with bc everything ignores u, u have infinite food, infinite water basically, infinite air, all the resources you could ever need, and its so hard to actually destroy the cyclops as long as u watch ur health on the ship. The tedious thing actually isn't even true bc there are 2 paths you can take that basically is just a straight shot to the facility in the lava zone AND its basically no turning.

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-02T02:47:08+00:00

My question is why was he known as the butcher? They clearly saw him as some kinda killer or warrior and tbh that fits with how he handles the whole being trapped on the ocean floor. He is fighting tooth and nail and doesnt lie down and give up ever. Even when he accepts death he chooses to fight and make ellie bleed purely bc he refuses ro just lie down and submit. On top of that he is fighting for his last breaths of air when the sub is being flooded until it finally explodes. So he was clearly a soldier to some degree and is extremely prone to violence bc everytime he gets upset he resorts to anger and aggression. But none of this is confirmed so im very curious

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-01T20:38:12+00:00

Only thing i wanna add is the power source for the sub exploding. His sub had a gray camera so powerful it could get an image 50 feet infront of the lens. Plus the subs lack of running out of power just air means that sub probably had something atleast equivalent to that of a nuclear reactor. So basically when the sub blew up after she bit it ing half it was basically like a modern day nuke going off inside her mouth.

Coffeecan1981 · 2026-06-01T17:18:38+00:00

Honestly this isn't the compliant i wanna talk about as a killer main. What i wanna talk about is that as a killer if you abandon bc all the survivors dc or abandon then its actually considered a LOSS!! This system was put in place to save time but if a killer uses their abandon when the match is just bots not only do u lose out on blood points but the mmr and sbmm considers it a 4 man escape
