So. How are we feeling about Tokyo ghoul chapter?

[Igris]

I don't mind it, naturally it looks weird seeing anime character outside of anime, but I'll get used it over time.

Honestly, doesnt belong in DBD, especially as a killer. Ken Kaneki is NOT a villain, he is an antihero, but not a villain, so it is very Weird that he would be put in the game as a killer...

Anime killers is just a weird addition and feels sorta desperate. There is nothing wrong with Anime Cosmetic crossovers, but an actual character. I dunno, feels misplaced and just wrong. Even his look feels off, like a mod being added to the game.

Such a lame take.

I just don't get it, why care so much about it?

Besides if thw character would make an interesting character to play against then that should be enough of a criteria.

from the perspective of someone who doesnt even know the source material, i think its pretty neat. Just wish we got a map or survivor to go along with it as i dont play too much killer.

Fits with the lore, actually; there are a lot of killers in DbD who aren't villains and some who are objectively good people. The Entity places them where they'll get it the most "food" and forces, coerces, or tricks them into killing if they wouldn't be naturally inclined to. And in Kaneki's particular case, it would be easy to spin the trials to him as a place where he could "feed" without really hurting his "meals" - they'll just wake up back by the campfire minus a few memories, but otherwise none the worse for wear. That would be a pretty attractive deal to him.

EDIT: I do have to admit my initial reaction to the new killer was also "Wait, what? Who? Why?" but now that I've actually played him I'm warming up to it.

I'm really confused. I thought new content was being put on hold to do the health update stuff for the next few months? 🤨

Yes, they said this during live stream. I'm confused as well. Lol

DBD as allways been about great name of horror. Tokyo ghoul never was that. "But there's one scary panel, there's gore and somtime it has a bit of horror" yeah but it just was a popular manga when we were adolescent. It's not Friday the 13h, it's not Silent Hill nor Resident Evil, It's not Hellraiser nor Texas Chainsaw Massacre. These are classic, tokyo ghoul is not, it didnt have the impact all the other licensed had at theyr prime time.

The problem come maybe that the horror theme of dbd is very american. Horror do not have the same code in every contry. And Japanese horror is generaly not about slahing killer. The most popular horror stuff in japan when it come to manga that are well writen and/or drawn are not compatible with dbd, with the exeption that validate the rule being Sadako.

You want to ad japanese horror, cool, but maybe it was not where you should look for horror sticking to this game.

I dunno man on that RE point the most popular killer we have from there Wesker is much more cheesy action game than horror

The chapter was supposed to be released earlier. It wont come out till April now, when it was going to be a March full release. So PTB would have been Feb.

Jumping around the map is neat and all, but he just feels like a weaker blight or a clunky version of legion. He move fast, yes, but a lot more downtime than blight. He lacks the innate feral frenzy info ability to play like Legion too, so juggling wounds around the map isn't so viable when survivors may not be found.

It's not worth the shards.
And I say that having more than 150k shards aside and nothing to do with them.

People on their way to justify Deep Wound killers as fun and interactive because it's anime and not legion now:

I despise anime. I treat it with the same disgust and revulsion you'd treat a dog poop in your breakfast cereal. Even with that disproportionate and irrational hatred, I still can't find it within myself to care much about this new killer.

We've got so many other wonderful and creative designs to play with. Also if you play killer you'd literally never encounter him, so at least for me it's a nonissue.

Where are these killers:
Mummy- could have an egyptian pyramid/tomb map
Werewolf- like come on.....
Wendigo
Goblin, Imp, Devil, etc
Headless Horseman
Drider from DND. Could have an Underdark map, or a mine, or just underground in general.
My idea: 4 Horseman- maybe you change horseman as conditions met. or "unlock" the form as conditions met. When a survivor dies, u get access to Death. Start with War and eventually get Pestilence and Famine.
