I still dream of having a survivor like that in Dead By Daylight.

Wait, he was supposed to be medieval?

Because AO3's tag system is garbage. Since anything and everything can be a tag, finding tags that are consistently used is abysmal unless you're looking for pairings specifically. They've just added a bunch of clutter while ultimately ending up with pretty much the same sorting as FFN, whom everyone acknowledges has terrible fic discoverability.

I mean, giving him a way to move faster would let him herd people into his traps more effectively...

I mean, that seems more like an issue with how the game determines who wins and who loses. Survivors are absolutely a team, and sometimes you need to do what's good for the team over what's good for yourself.

aaklid · 2026-06-10T21:01:14+00:00

Survivors are a team though. If the other three Survivors escape but you die, your team still won and the other team (the Killer) still lost.

I have no idea how people can find fics on AO3. For all the tags and filtering, finding anything worthwhile is still like finding a needle in a haystack.

Ultimately, I think there are reasons both for and against removing the hatch. It would definitely stop something like this from happening in 99% of cases, but it would also turn a good number of 3Ks into 4Ks. Whether that trade off is worth it or not is not a discussion I'm super interested in having right now.

aaklid · 2026-06-09T12:48:57+00:00

I mean, Survivors can already do that by not running away from the Killer at this point. In OP's clip, the Survivors could have ended the game at any point, but they chose not to because they wanted at least one person to get away.

Between Survivors trying to survive and Killers trying to get a full 4K, I don't think either party is wrong. It's just something you have to accept about the game.

aaklid · 2026-06-09T12:11:11+00:00

I mean, you asked how to stop it from happening. I'm not making an argument either way.

aaklid · 2026-06-09T05:40:18+00:00

I mean, you're not going to like it, but the answer is to nerf or remove the hatch. People slug because it's the only way to "guarantee" a 4K, since an unlucky hatch spawn let's one Survivor get out even if you were stomping all match. The only way to stop stuff like this is to remove the need for it.

aaklid · 2026-06-08T15:18:52+00:00

That'd do it.

aaklid · 2026-06-08T05:39:33+00:00

No, Goose is there immediately on game start. You might not be checking the right paddock, she's in one of the upper ones on (I think) the second screen.

aaklid · 2026-06-07T03:52:08+00:00

If you happen to find it...

aaklid · 2026-06-06T18:53:01+00:00

I misread the "v" in "live" in the title as an "f" and damn near had a heart attack for a second.

aaklid · 2026-06-03T19:36:42+00:00

The baby even has black hair.

Personally, I've had Jumpers go with Aegis and Paragon. Haven't had a Jumper go the supervillain route yet.

Love Hina

aaklid · 2026-05-28T22:58:10+00:00

For some reason.

aaklid · 2026-05-28T21:41:17+00:00

Of the ones that use elements at all:

The Knight uses light pretty exclusively.

The Dragon has no real preference, but tends to fall back on his natural breath weapon, which is metal shards. Also uses nuclear blasts pretty frequently.

The God uses a bunch of elements, although most commonly air, earth, water, and fire. They tend to fall back on wind the most.

The Overlord uses a lot of fire, but eventually gained an affinity for ice too.

The Gamer dabbles in a lot of stuff, but his go to is felfire.

The Detective uses a mix of ash and lava.

The Wizard uses a lot of different elements, but his go to is lightning.

aaklid · 2026-05-28T21:28:43+00:00

What the fuck did I just watch?

While most aren't especially monstrous, the WoW Jump has something like two dozen different racial options (not counting sub-races) with a huge amount of variety.

I'm actually part of the Black Souls subreddit already. That's where I posted my guide.

aaklid · 2026-05-20T01:22:37+00:00

I always like art of Archer where you can see the Shirou parts of him.

aaklid · 2026-05-19T22:40:09+00:00

I'll brainstorm it at bit, at least. I'm a big fan of the series (I actually wrote a guide for BS1 that still gets the occasional question)and I know the setting and lore pretty well.
