Ellen Ripley

[Cerventus]

Ok, am I the only one who thinks that Ellen Ripley is completely unlike her counterpart from the movies? She reminds me more of Amanda and still only in the dark with a flashlight.
Other licensed characters more or less resemble their movie/game counterparts etc

Alien still cooler.

[SUPREME YEET]

yes i agree and i wonder what the reason is behind this. The others are always so close to their real life counterparts so there must have been something that prevented them.

Like Laurie Strode with Jamie Lee Curtis, it means Sigourney Weaver didn't sign away her likeness. The end.

[Hogger]

You are not the only one. This is a common complaint.

In my opinion they should have done what video game character designers, toy and comic book artists have been doing for years. Ripping off some part of actor likeness without it being 100 percent to avoid problems.

Like at least make her face gaunt and eyes smaller. She does not have to look like Sigourney but she should look like Ripley.

"We always aim to be as close as possible to the original source material. That's always our goal. But in this case, we are telling a story about Ripley. Not about Sigourney Weaver. And we were able to create a Ripley that felt right in the world of Dead by Daylight. We're very happy with the result that we have."

They did this Ripley based on Cartoon Network shows. Gees, those big eyes and that skinny waist...her body's proportion doesnt match at all. wtf they were thinking? Her design doesnt match to the rest dbd's characters.

[Buckshot]

I just don't understand why they didn't just use Amanda from Alien Isolation or just make up an original character if they couldn't get the proper likeness.

[Over It]

Did IQ's just sharply drop while I was away? She didn't sign a deal to use her likeness. That's it. There's nothing more to it.

[Echorion]

Honestly she probably would have signed a deal for it, the thing is Behaviour probably didn't want to pay for it.

its like lory strode. its the comic version of the caracter. because the movie stars dont want to be ingame (unlike nic cage).
