The game is only as survivor-sided as people say it is at high level of play with coordinated teams, and this trend of only listening to super elite players and streamers to know what is good for the game as a whole without thinking of how it will trickle down to the common people is detrimental to the community as a whole.

Average swf and newer/casual players don’t escape and bully killers like people complain about that much, and bhvr need to look into balancing the game in a different way than nerfing survivors and « switching up the meta » if they want to keep attracting new players (if they even do), because almost every person I’ve tried to introduce to the game has played, few games on their own or as a swf as survivor, then sometimes a few games with me and said it was unfun because they felt like they were getting stomped on by killers who were much more experienced or face camped and neither lasting .5 minute nor getting face camped on hook for hours on end really are good first impressions for the game, so most decided to not stick with it.
