The Unknown killer is creepy

[RedKnightDivine]

From the moment I saw The Unknown, me flesh crawled, what a creepy disjointed thing this is, man, he's unsettling, even playing as this killer gives me the creep like he's going to jump out of the screen or something, I really enjoyed the map of the movie theater and parking lot too, it's a nice touch. Sable Ward is a good character too, a strong one, so strong that she runs circles around The Unknown. I played matches where I chased Sable Ward round and round for almost the whole game,, she're pretty fast and hard to catch especially under someone with skill, so, I would recommend making The Unknown maybe faster so that the matches are not spent chasing around boulders and shacks and the like. I think The Unknown has a pretty good abdominal tentacle canon that can down survivors if they get hit too many times, that's a nice touch. Well done!

I don't know. I call it a missed opportunity to make something work with mimicry, and the SCP living beneath the skin.

Instead, they hand him an axe, a grenade launcher, and another teleport ability.

The design is fire, the mimicry of voices is fire, map and survivor is fire, but again, the missed opportunity.

The grenade launcher is what's really throwing me. The killer's concept is pretty cool, but the powerset feels like it should be in a prop hunt game, and not DBD? Does my description even make sense? lol

i wish they used his crawl animation more/ maybe like a alt mode every time you shoot a shot you get undetectable and crawl but every break animation is 50% slower but everything else is 50% faster/ maybe could be a iri add-on

I like the design, but I feel making him part of the Analog Horror sphere doesn't work, especially not with the massive lore dump he gets. I'm not an expert, but I feel Analog Horror works best the less you are told, you're given information here and there, yes the [Redacted] and [Redacted] lines are [Redacted] for a reason and over used to the point of it being a meme, with the point being obscuring information to heighten fear.

The Unknown just looks creepy, but is pretty generic from his inspiration source, basically based on stuff like Mandela Catalogue and Internet Folklore.
A really missed chance to use Analog Horror as a medium to have the Entity create its own monster, in a sort of "I'm bored of plucking Killers from other places, now I'll show you all whose realm this really is".
Basically there was no need to make an "Analog Horror" Killer, the Entity itself is Analog Horror ontop of its Lovecraftian Horror, it's more the style that makes something Analog Horror, not the "spooky limbs go twisty".

And yes; I really want a Killer that imitates Survivors, creating paranoia and fear. Problem is a Killer like that might need to play slow, not as fast paced as a lot of these matches are now.
"Awesome, I tricked one Survivor into a corner!" *3 gens pop at once* "w-what?"

Analog Horror is pretty wide in scope of what you can do with it, yet they choose the most generic and overused aspect of it? It's a little underwhelming, really sucks because The Unknowns visual design is fantastic.

His power is lame though, no not "OMG so hard", it's just lame. Teleporting grenade launcher, so he an alternate (heh) of Dredge, brilliant.

I suppose horror differs from person to person. To me he looks super goofy and jolly. I do like him, but I would not consider him scary myself

the hair is too goofy, and not being able to see his eyes like you could in the trailers/teasers takes away from the design a lot. i'm also not a big fan of just how obviously non-human he is from a glance. the point is that he's meant to mimic his victims, right? so why is he doing such a terrible job? if they gave him more realistic proportions it'd sell the concept better.

I think aesthetic wise as far as proportions goes, is to not look too much like hillbilly. Cuz atm they could almost be brothers

maybe they are, and the "skin" unknown uses is actually hillbilly, but ik that aint true cause the farmer got hillbilly as a disfigured kid

His design reminds me of the flood infected marines when he has his.. neck appendage thing deployed

[Demonoid74]

He reminds me of Sloth from the Goonies...not cool, not scary or creepy...just deformed and stupid...like a glitchy monster from a late 90s, low budget video game...combine that with a generic, try hard Mall Goth poser...yeah hard pass

[Wandering Flare]

Couldn't put my finger on whether he reminded me of a poor attempt at Edgar The Bug by someone who never watched the movie and was just verbally described the guy once, or something from a 7 y/o's creepypasta attempt.

"A being beyond understanding, though many have tried." and what we get is genuinely comedic.
