The solution isn’t to nerf Pathfinder. It would seem unfair to negatively adjust a longtime character’s core abilities, especially when these abilities are so simple. Doing so would certainly cause backlash within the commun

There’s a reason players call her "Wifeline." Ajay Che is sarcastic and tough, but she’s also a compassionate and caring person. Her choice to be a medic proves she has a good heart. Pair that with a unique sense of style and her musical talents and she’s a total ca

As Dead by Daylight is strictly an online, multiplayer game, it lives or dies by the size of its player base. In a recent announcement post leading up to the release of the game on the Nintendo Switch, the possibility of cross play was raised but addressed as not being planned between platfo

Fundamentally, the game looks to be identical on mobile devices. Despite being on a phone instead of a high end PC, "on mobile, this works very well. We had to make a few small changes, for instance, we added a rear-view button on mobile, because you cannot look behind you as easily as with a mouse and keyboard or controll

Until recently, Dead by Daylight was a game played only on PC , PlayStation 4 , and Xbox One , but now players have new ways to play. The Nintendo Switch port of the game offers a different experience altogether, putting the action in your hands, and the mobile version of the game is in early beta and not available in North America, although that has not stopped this writer from having it on his ph

There are few things in life as frustrating as making it to the game’s final circles but running low on health and shields. In most games, players desperately need health and shield items. Even if the players have stacked tons of kills, med kits and shield cells may be in short supply by the time players make it to the end g

For now, the future of Dead by Daylight looks bright, and the passion of its game director can only bring positive developments in the future. Now we wait to see if Oni is our next killer, or something new and twisted in betw

Additionally, the grapple offers both speed and elevation at the same time. Octane’s jump pad can do this, too, but the grapple resets much more frequently than the jump pad. Additionally, the jump pads don’t offer nearly as much height or distance or Pathfinder’s grapple, plus the grapple offers far more cont

In translating the core gameplay to new platforms, Côté describes some of the considerations needed both for the Switch and upcoming mobile version of the game. For Nintendo, "the biggest thing with the Switch is obviously that visually it had to be accommodated and optimized a little bit compared to what we have on high end PCs…However, playing it in handheld, I think there is something kinetic about it, literally you’re so crunched into it, to me it’s a very different experience, I like that. I try to play at least a few games per day, especially on a new platform so I know what the hell I’m talking abo

With no way to counter the zip line, a person who has low ground has to take a low-ground, long distance fight or wait for PS5 DLC the Pathfinder to come down. The latter becomes unlikely, though, when the character is in an advantageous posit

Some people say that a team's reliance on the Pathfinder character is fine because every team can choose to have a Pathfinder on it, which makes it fair to all. This isn’t inherently wrong, but it's still problematic. The game is designed to allow different team compositions to have different tactical advantages when playing together. The fact that teams so frequently rely on Pathfinder signifies an imbalance in the meta at a fundamental le

As far as in-game loot options, a grapple gun with only three or four uses or a single-use zip line loot drop could be strong opportunity to counter. As a random Epic or Legendary loot drop, item rarity could make it so that people would still have to work to obtain these it

I’d love to see a softer side of this character to decide whether she’s kissable. What’s she like on her off days? Is she a whiskey drinker or does she prefer red wine? Maybe beneath that tough exterior, she’s the type who likes to go apple picking in the fall and knit crochet blankets for her friends' bab

In most battle royale games, duos games tend to play out more slowly than full squad games. Players aren’t always as aggressive since they have only one another to help them should they catch themselves in a bind. So, they tend to be more methodological, instead of focusing on reckless pushes and superior weapo

On the issue of cross play, Côté was clear in the matter, "It’s untrue that there are no plans for cross play, we are looking at it. For us, the one thing that allows us to keep the game alive is a player base, there is a critical mass for the matchmaking to work, purely for that, anything above that is good, and the more we can bring people together through cross play or any other way, the better it’s going to be for everyone’s experience. It’s obviously something we are looking at very close
