First time playing as a Demon and got 4 survivors with full prestiges...

Thats not enjoyable for beginners at all if they will get enemy players with 100+ hours. There should be some MMR or Ranked System.

[George Foreman Grill]

Agreed. It gets better when you get the levels, but it's pretty rough at first. No other Asym does this that I know of. Even other ones in the same genre have less of a leveling wall for new players.

The game is a giant grindfest and it's not friendly to casual players at all.

It's ridiculous how much time you have to put into the game just to max out one character.

I played the game casually over the year and have put in dozens of hours into it but i have yet to max out even one Demon. Never mind the Survivors. Which i barely played.

It will take until you can get the skills up, get used to losing until that point pretty much, but you get better.

It's actually insane. I've put 15 hours into this game since launch and Ruby is level 8 and Cheryl is level 5, everyone else is level 1.

I'd prefer if they did a Dead By Daylight leveling system, that's grindy too but nowhere as bad as this game in terms of grind.

The reality is that if you want to get anywhere with XP/Spirit Points, playing demon is a must.

Is that true? I'm too nervous to try Demon but maybe I should.

Doesn't sound right, are you spending the points to level up?

Every game played I back out to the collection and update the character I'm playing.

I wouldn't be nervous, but the fact is that the payouts are better with demon vs. time spent. If you don't have better things to do, sure, go ahead and just play survivor.

Consider it a learning lesson in knowing how the enemy operates if that helps.

Yesh, thus far I seem to be getting twice as many points when I lose as demon, as I do when I win as survivor.

i am but does allocating points increase xp?

[Ebola911]

All i can say for demon, its not really for the kind of heart, you really have to have patience for it, because you will be losing a lot. If survivors stick together, the demon really has to know how to approach them, if not, then the demon will be wasting resources. If you have all p5 surv's, its pretty much a game given, or, if your confident enough, you can attempt, but the game imo, is still too much in hands of survivors, hence due to a lot of Disconnects. As a demon, you will see as to why, other than that, im not going to go down a Santa Clause list and give my reasons... other than that, i wish yall the best of luck.

Not skill points, spirit points to level up in collection menu.

Ohhhhhhhhhh omg I'm so stupid. I had 300k spirit points. Just maxed out Cheryl and Ruby is now level 20. Well, I'm glad I learned that sooner than later

[Alea iacta est]

High prestige does not always mean the person playing is actually 'good', just means they put in time on THAT character. There are more spirit points to be made as demon, in fact, i leveled every character with banked spirit points from crushing survivors under my heel as a demon. Did I win every game? No. Once you get the hang of it and have some levels on the demon you will typically have an 80% ++ win rate.

It's not immediately obvious.
