Dead by Daylight is an asymmetrical multiplayer (4vs1) horror game where one player takes on the role of the savage Killer, and the other four players play as Survivors, trying to escape the Killer and avoid being caught and killed.

Basically, extreme hind and seek. I love this game. People will complain about some killers being too OP or trolling survivors being trolls. That all adds to the fun for me. No games ever really the same because you don't know how each other player play, which is bloody important! It's a challenge as both killer and survivor and it kind of feels like two games for one, which is nice.

Excellent game if you're a horror fan. Never engage with the community in any fashion, it's as bad if not worse than League of Legends.

This review is for those considering starting Dead by Daylight.
First things first: the game’s concept is excellent for casual players. It’s constantly updated, with new content every few weeks. You can treat it as a quick pick-up-and-play experience, or sink thousands of hours into it - it’s as shallow or as addictive as your preferences allow.
That said, the learning curve is steep. While the core gameplay is simple and there aren't many interactable elements, the depth comes from its variety. As of writing this, there are over 40 killers and 127 killer perks, which means learning dozens of playstyles and counterplay strategies.
On the flip side, there are 46 survivors with around 150 perks. Again, lots of combinations to experiment with or master.
Most perks can be unlocked through play or purchase. But don’t expect a quick grind. Even after 1000 hours, you may not unlock everything. Some perks are also locked behind paid DLCs(not a complaint, just a fact).
Here’s the twist: despite the wide variety, once you climb the matchmaking ranks, you'll notice a pattern. Only a few killers dominate the meta, and only a handful of survivor perks are commonly used.
And the community? It’s the full internet zoo. You’ll meet incredibly kind, wholesome players—but they’re the minority. Most matches involve someone sandbagging, throwing the game, or verbally melting down over a single mistake.
You’ll see people building their real-life identities around this game.
You’ll see how deeply some crave digital victory.
You’ll see content creators whose "amazing" fans may harass you.
You'll see that some players seem to log in purely to annoy others.
And yes, you’ll see both blatant and subtle cheaters—and it might take BHVR a while to act.
But despite all of this… I still play it. Is it worth it? I don't know.

This game is like a toxic ex with a PhD in gaslighting.
It disconnects, it cheats, it ruins your life… but then it hits you with just enough fun to make you say, “Maybe they’ve changed.”
Spoiler: they haven’t. You’re stuck in the same emotional roller coaster, just with worse ping.
You hate it. You love it. You're crying at 4 AM holding snacks you don't remember buying.
Solid 10/10. Would suffer again.

This game is not fun, until it's fun. But then it's not, but then it is.
Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

Used to play this game for fun. Now I mainly play it because I hate myself and I deserve the suffering :)

Playing Dead by Daylight feels like scratching your balls with sandpaper. At first, it’s like, “Yeah, I can handle this, maybe it’s not so bad.” But the longer you do it, the more you realize you're sinking deeper into hell of pure pain and regret. Just when you think it can’t get worse, the killer shows up, and suddenly, you’re the one being scratched your balls to the maximum except it’s with a chainsaw, a hook, or some other twisted, sadistic invention that only an insane person could come up with.
It’s basically a game where you spend 90% of your time running for your life, only to get caught and sacrificed like a dumb animal questioning your entire existence?
so if you hate your life, enjoy a little more suffering, and want to spend your nights in a constant state of depression, pain and regret, this game is your own personal therapist. 10/10 game

Don't take the game seriously and the game is actually fun. Buy it on sale, as it often does go on sale, cause there are a ton of DLCs.
