So for the crowns what you had to do was collect them at a pillar that was very hard to find and you had to fight your teammates for it, as killer you just had to collect it, for surv you had to collect it then escape, and you had to do that for EVERY. SINGLE. CHARACTER. If you get a crown for David you don’t get crowns for anyone else but David. Fun fact tho, blight, twins, elodie, and Felix have year 4 crowns but those crowns were unreleased for years until this code because blight and twins came out after year 4
One FOMO that annoys me is the seasonal cosmetics I’m not always guaranteed to be able to purchase a cosmetic during the limited time, if they just opened it to all of the time I’d be able to purchase it as soon as I could
Oh, also a great example of this is the game Star Wars the Old Republic had the Collector's Edition, where you got access to the VIP area and also access to an exclusive CE only vendor with exclusive items. Later they added the "Digital Deluxe" upgrade, which gave you access to the VIP area, but there was no way to get access to the CE vendor anymore. It would be 11 years before they finally added a Digital Collector's Edition upgrade, so players could buy access to the CE vendor. Many CE owners were so angry... but me as a CE owner? I was like "Dude, we've had it 11 years, get over it." an in fact that's my sentiment for every other subscriber reward and etc that the game has had over the years, all was 'free to subscribers" at one point, now players can purchase them, but again, people are so angry about that.
Hello fellow CE owner of SWTOR, and I agree. I do not care, besides I rarely have seen anyone use anything from that Vender in game anyway, it is like the most minor of complaints.
I wasnt around for legacy when i started swtor, but it was one of my very first if not THE first MMO i ever played and i loved it so much. Started 2016 when i switched from console to PC gaming. Played the game for years almost daylie and enjoyed it to every bit. But i NEVER knew how the hell to get acsess to the VIP area. A friend of mine though said the vendors there dont sell any good stuff anyway so i didnt bother trying to get there.
It isn't necessarily the fear of missing out. I would personally say it has to do with showing that you have supported the game for x amount of time. Especially in a game where everybody can prestige and get whatever. Older Cosmetics are the only thing you have to show that you have been playing longer than someone else. I think allowing your players that have supported a game for years to have exclusive cosmetics is a small but nice way to incentivize dedication. Initially all the Cosmetics were dropped to be a distinct item for people to recognized as a certain years cosmetic but over time it's become so muddy that people just view it as the anniversary cosmetic or the Lunar New Year cosmetic. The point where I do believe it becomes unhealthy is having certain requirements to achieve something or obtain it and then turn around years later to then break the Cosmetic progression or Aging in a game where without it you have no sort of progression besides the same thing that a brand new person can obtain. Overall I just think that if you've been supporting a game for years you should have something to show for it that's different than the person that picked the game up yesterday.
Oh and because of the crown. Yeah these where a pain in the ass. As suvivor you need to find a crown, after that, you start to sparkel, and everyone could see this, as a killer, you simple need to search for this thing aaannnd done. I have no problem that everyone can now get these + the 4th year crowns for elodie, felix, blight and twins are very cool - the characters where not a part of dbd back to this annieversary sooo nice. (I still remember the match where I got my jeff crown, it was the grimm pantry and a spirit really want me death, was trying to tunnel me so hard. but there was a david, protectin me the hole god dam match, and managed to saved me, he died in this match and I felt so bad for him. but he was happy that I was escaping. when you read this, david: love you. and Spirit: thanks for this intense and cool match :) its a DBD core memorie for me)
im glad people are getting the crowns im just a og i just think its pretty disappointing that their isn't something to acknowledge the ones their at the time
I do think it's really really cool to have some things be tied to like "you were playing this game back during this time period, and this signifies that" but it shouldn't be overused (charms and maybe a very minor cosmetic at most, is all I mean) I do agree that going back to past battle passes would be really awesome.
It’s been confirmed. The dredge was created through the FOMO of all gamers. In all seriousness, something like what Halo: Infinite has where you can just choose every existing season pass regardless of the current season should be considered for more games. Nothing beats freedom of choice.
A little off topic. I liked when during anniversary or New Year event, you needed to do smyh in a match, and after that you got random cosmetic either for killer or survivor. I liked that little sort of gambling
I wouldn't mind if they made the devotion mechanic into a badge kind of like Service Medals in CS:GO/CS2. Say you got a profile badge every time you hit got a full devotion level in a given year, and it changed colors or designs for every extra devotion level you got in that year. Cool way to display account age and playtime. It's always cool in CS to see people in games with 10 year badges or other old medals, and not that dbd has profile badges you could do a similar thing.
Just a funny blast from the past: I played the game since march 2019 - the very first rift came out in september/October this year and the rift was just bugges, a lot of player start randomly in the middle of the rift. It was for me level 27 I guess 😂 Also its good to see you become more and more confident. I love watching your videos bevor I go to work :) greetings from Germany
I played during the 5th anniversary event and i can't remember that it was "so hard" to get those damn crowns (...pun, like if you get it 😅). What i remember is my inner monks stroke bc i started playing during this event and i couldn't get all. Played my first match as killer months later 🙈Now it is all complete and thats beautiful. I like that they changed the events to easier archiveable tasks and that they give older cosmetics as rewards for free as well as putting old tome cosmetics in the store or as recolor in new tomes. The only thing that should not come back and stay rare are the legacy cosmetics. I hope for more old cosmetics to come back, i missed a few i really want (red dress for spirit 🙈...). The idea to make old rifts purchaseable is really good, i hope they recognize how much money they can make with that 😅
preciate it kaisers partner! also, the very first time i played dbd, there was the slinger deep rift and i missed it because i had no idea it was limited time. so i got reallly dissapointed. im a p20 slinger main because westerns fuckin rock
Year 4/5 Gamer here To give some context behind the crowns: Crowns would spawn on pedestals. All killers had to do was collect them and finish the match. Survivors had to collect them and escape with them in order to actually get the crown on the character they played as. I remember spending a week just getting all the survivor crowns, and it was super accomplishing. Do I mind more people having these crowns now? Not really, but it also doesn’t sit right the fact that they’re so easy to obtain now. I feel like they should still have to be earned, but in a different way. What I DON’T like is how inconsistent BHVR is with FOMO. They have said they aren’t doing P100 rewards cuz of FOMO, but will gladly put limited time cosmetics in the shop, give away rare items that were once seen as status symbols (except legacy), and inconsistently release rift cosmetics, and straight up refuse to release deep rift cosmetics. BHVR can’t seem to make up their mind on how they want to handle the topic of FOMO.
Funny thing is, I’ve been playing since day 1, so, I did have these crowns already, been rocking them and I’m only happy people got them so they can enjoy them. Hell, I am so dedicated that during that event I got that crown tattooed on my arm. Who cares more people have it? I am also for legacy (or recolours) for everyone, I would love it! It’s all fun! To me at least :D
I'm kinda fine with dbd's Battlepass. it is very very generous, many skins, you get your currency back, and recently, besides deep rift recolours, they wanted to release every rift cosmetic to the store. my issues are with "limited time" cosmetics and stuff like the Kate headpiece or blight weapon you only get from purchasing cells
I feel like this would be a nice aspect cause' while I was INDEED around during those days.. I think ._. I was extremely new and didn't know what I was doing. SO I feel like this is nice for extremely newer players who wanted those cosmetics, and such. And overall imo the past year or so has been an absolutel straight up W for BHVR. Great characters, niche nerfs and or buffs, and just overall interesting gameplay, Vecna's now my second favourite killer, gameplay wise because he's so unique.
Adding to the badge/banner idea I think they can do it similarly to Xbox. If you view someone’s profile on Xbox (for example mine) it shows a number 8. That shows how many years you’ve been an Xbox live subscriber. There are some people with 10+ years subscribed. So I think Dbd can do the same showing a number representing how old your account is. Just a thought I had watching the video. Similar to apex as you said but maybe behaviors own spin on it. Make the number represented by the entity or something idk.
To be fair. I'd be down with some crazy hard challenges or things to grind to get that ''status'' feeling. Like an actual accomplishment for going the extra mile! That be pretty sweet.
I think another idea would've been to make the ones you get from the codes a different looking variant of the original ones by making them silver. Another idea would be giving people who already have some of them an iridecent one for every crown the already own with the possibility of unlocking those by escaping 50 times or getting 50 3-4k's.
I remember always having nancy since sh released. When they got rid of her i always felt nice being able to rep her community since she was un buyable for a while. When she came back i wasnt one the gatekeepers that werejt excited. I was excited for them comin back. But it did feel a lil sad that i was gonna lose that bit of rarity in my lobbys. Not the end of the world
I spent a lot of time back then getting these crowns and I feel a bit cheated. Also I love items that show off your dedication to the game/ when you started playing and taking that from people feels just not fair. If they want to go this route I want to get Legacy Skins.
Yes I was one of those who wasn't crazy about the code to get all the crowns. I would have been fine if they brought them back and let newer players earn who weren't around a few years ago. To just GIVE them away.... rubbed me the wrong way. The killer ones were very easy to get. The survivor ones were tough. Especially since I didn't play much survivor back then
My thoughts on FOMO have always been if it's earned FOMO I think it's fine paid FOMO sucks. As for the status simple thing the League had a legacy skin for Warwick that could not be gotten again however they brought it back years later to be earned, it was an insane grind to get it, but they made it so those who got it when it was first released it has a unique backing animation so the skin is still a status simple of "I WAS THERE" while keeping it so anyone can get it. Recolors or like giving a player banner of the skin something like that could be the way DBD does it. I mean Deep Rift skins are exclusives that once they are gone NEVER come back to the shop.
As someone who played during year 4 and 5, and I'm ok with them being given away, but I think they should be earned and not just given freely. But it's their company, not mine so I have no say. You seem like an awesome dude. Glad I subbed because your content is so chill compared to some of the other channels that aren't like the huge names.
One thing that’s been bothering me is that they’ve lowered the prices on all the older characters. Sounds great, but kind of a rip off to those of us who bought them at full price. For instance, I got the oni for 9000 iri shards back in 2020. Then my friend who’s only been playing the game for a year just bought him for only 2000 iri shards. I feel like older players should be compensated slightly for something like this.
Im generally not a big fan of fomo. Mostly because, as you said, most of the time I miss out simply because I wasn't there. I think most of the time, it's better to just have things that take a while to earn. Makes it mean more than "you were there". Hell, you could even make the requirements be something that get harder with time (prestige every character to X or smth) if you wanna flex being old.
Cosmetics are whatever it’s the Halloween medkits/anniversary items I like to hoard like when I started playing was when blight released so right after PH anny but my first anniversary was these black n gold toolboxes those are what’s rare to me not cosmetics
Yeee but look at that way, a single skin from an old battle pass cost more than the battle past…BHVR would be losing so much money But aside of Legacy Skins I think DbD‘s FOMO isn’t bad as people say…seasonal skins are well, seasonal they are coming back in a year and can be purchased with Auric Cell…and I would be feel bad if I couldn’t get the gnome chipmaker charm, this was fun too and I am a huge L4D fan Old Crowns you had to collect Invitations (which could be stolen when getting downed) and had to escape, it was super fun! Because you had to use the character, so much variety in Survs and we had the old perk system, so I had so much garbage builds to run because I didn’t level the characters I don’t play and did most of the adept achievements…I‘m super fine with them coming, I wish they would tie them with escaping with the right Character + an Invitation, so you have more variety again but hey, doesn’t affect me at all since they are ugly and the year five ones looking like vaginas lol I‘m genuinely surprised that survivor don’t like the event, I play mainly survivor and have the fun of my life…for me its just like Chaos Mode
Maybe im just heavily misremembering but i dont understand why people think the Crowns were hard to get. You just had to grab the Crown from one of the pillars and escape with said survivor or end the trial as killer. And yes, escaping wasnt exactly easy, but we had more than enough tools to ensure we get quite far into the match. And we had that for the years to follow. So while i can see that it feels bad that other people just get all the stuff for free, it wasnt that big of a deal. I love feeling special aswell with the unique stuff that i own but its rly not other peoples fault for just not playing the game back then
I honestly have a big problem with FOMO, i play a lot of Warhammer so it's something i have come to realize i did without even thinking about it, i once drove 3 days to a convention to pick up a limited time, DBDs FOMO seems to not be as bad though since i feel no love for DBDs Battlepass compared to something like Fallout 76 or Hearthstone
The crowns were not hard to get. You just had to find the pillar (like what the current invitations are on). If you were on survivor you also had to escape but survivor was also dummy strong at the time, so that was also not very hard. It was just tedious because you had to do it on every character you wanted it for. Maybe if you were exceptionally bad it was hard.
I just want to know when Nea's System Smasher is coming to the store. It was in the Rift right before I joined the game. Mandy SAID eventually all Very Rare outfits will come to the store, but System Smasher is the oldest Very Rare Rift outfit not added to the store. That, and the Rare ones, apparently they aren't? I have half of Dwight's Office Santa outfit due to it being on the free track of the Rift that was active when I joined the game, and it triggers my collection OCD to not have the full set.
I wasn't there for the 4th Anniversary so I don't remember, but I was already playing for the 5th and so on. And I can't say that the 5th Anniversary rewards were specifically sweaty to obtain. It wasn't as nowadays easy, but it was fine in general. Nowadays, of course, you get your event rewards pretty passively and in a relaxed way, but that's how it should be for ANY game event in the first place. You supposed to come to enjoy the game and celebrate certain occasions, not to compete and sweat for the rewards... So I guess you're cool an' shit because you did "bust" your bussy for all the earlier rewards, but that doesn't make you better/more experienced/privileged/etc. as a player only because all other newer players came into the game when it finally received all the vital (or most of them at least) QoL updates (and did received previous cheesy rewards for free), so you can actually enjoy the events at some degree. P. S. And we all f know that in the end nobody (almost 99%) uses those halos and masks because they come along with the default boring wigs, so nobody is interested in them. And that's on gayriot. But at least starting from now on they actually gave us masks with non-default wigs, thank feck.
i was around for the 5th anniversary and got my crown for the killer and survivor i liked, though i am a little bummed that the prestige of having them is gone, as that is the only reason id wear them (i agree that they look a little ass). overall though, i feel its no big deal. but i would like to see the devs add something to signify which crowns were earned during their anniversary, even if its just a bit of text in the menu
also, in the game blood td battles 2, they have profile badges you get every season that has the season number and where you placed on it that you get for your account just existing during the season, i think something like that would be really cool for dbd.
Im bit late haha. So the crowns in the 5th year (I didnt play the 4th so Im not sure) wasnt difficult at all to get, it was pretty easy. I get it when a company bets on FOMO, they can get money for it, but I simply cant understand why other players want to be exclusive and not let others have the same cosmetic, it just dont fit in my mind lol
The veterans should be happy about this. The crown will now not make them more likely to get tunneled, since it's not a signifier of a more dangerous opponent anymore.
I am curious to know your opinion on Deep Rift cosmetics, since they are reskins of existed cosmetics from tomes and you can only get them if you get to tier 70+ on those rifts
does anyone actually wear the crowns anymore though? they've been in the game for 3 years now but even after the code was given out I haven't seen anyone wearing it
I been playing since just before sadako and I always wondered why some fools wore a big ass gold thing that floated above the grass and gave away thier position.
I played during that time. I got every single crown and it was miserable. The code is a great way to give people the crowns and anyone bitching about it has no reason to. No one even runs them anyway, so who cares?
The crowns were very easy to obtain, I don't know why these people are lashing out that much, you just had to grab the invitation, and escape (survivor) or finish the match in any way (killer) it seem at this point I see it as just, getting angry for the whole reason to get angry with something
Fomo sucks in any and all forms and I'm just getting so sick of it in gaming in general. Losing access to a battle pass, especially one you've already PAID for should not be a fucking thing
Getting the crowns wasnt AS HARD to get. Im not just trying to stroke my own dick but getting hatch or a gate wasnt that hard especialy with keys still being in their pre nerf states. i would say its okay to have free things with fomo as you can earn them with out it eating into your wallet, and also i wouldnt mind if we had a ton of these rewards as it can feel good to say i WAS there and even if you dont know about the game at that point. idk im okay with having an unc status simble. I wouldnt mind them brining new ones for players who joined now so they can get their own thing. My last problem with it is just the fact we are getting 4TH FUCKING YEAR celebrations? its year 8. Why are we going back in time 4 years?? Also just the fact that they release a specificaly made 4th year annevarsery item for everyone. im okay with the rift as it was announced from the get go that all cosmetics would return to the shop.... untill they announced, fuck you not everything will come to the shop. But bact to the point, it was clearly stated that nothing is exlusive to the rift, but i would say a specific year celebration with its own banner when hovering over it should come with the expecation of it staying rare
Maybe this is a hot take but im going to stop buying the rift passes if the skins just come to the store later. Same with event cosmetics. No point in collecting exclusive stuff if itll just not be exclusive and easy to get. People like exclusive cool limited time stuff. I like FOMO for events and rift passes, but not just for store cosmetics.
Thank you kaiser’s partner.
Thank you kaisers partner

Fun fact tho, blight, twins, elodie, and Felix have year 4 crowns but those crowns were unreleased for years until this code because blight and twins came out after year 4
Didn't you have to win the match as killer to get the crown, i remember not getting it multiple times in a row after a 4E and only got it after a win
@@dkres82 so i just had a bad case of the bugs that event then?
One FOMO that annoys me is the seasonal cosmetics
I’m not always guaranteed to be able to purchase a cosmetic during the limited time, if they just opened it to all of the time I’d be able to purchase it as soon as I could
Killer only had to collect the item and then finish the match, survivor had to collect the item AND ESCAPE.
I let so many Survivors out during the crown events. If they wanted it that badly? Let them have it, get on with enjoying the event.
Oh, also a great example of this is the game Star Wars the Old Republic had the Collector's Edition, where you got access to the VIP area and also access to an exclusive CE only vendor with exclusive items.

They do release old Battle Pass cosmetics, and now have old bundles of charms etc that were in rifts.

Recolors or like giving a player banner of the skin something like that could be the way DBD does it. I mean Deep Rift skins are exclusives that once they are gone NEVER come back to the shop.
League is not a good example of FOMO done right. The immortalised ahri skin for 500 dollars, out for one month? Cmon
@@synalgia I didn't say they always do it right i was giving one example of them doing in a good way imo
One thing I really like about the dbd battlepass is that they bring back the skins in shop form
As someone who played during year 4 and 5, and I'm ok with them being given away, but I think they should be earned and not just given freely. But it's their company, not mine so I have no say. You seem like an awesome dude. Glad I subbed because your content is so chill compared to some of the other channels that aren't like the huge names.
One thing that’s been bothering me is that they’ve lowered the prices on all the older characters. Sounds great, but kind of a rip off to those of us who bought them at full price. For instance, I got the oni for 9000 iri shards back in 2020. Then my friend who’s only been playing the game for a year just bought him for only 2000 iri shards. I feel like older players should be compensated slightly for something like this.
This is why I’m glad for Helldivers 2. “Work on battle passes whenever. We don’t care.”
Bhvr: "hey, you need to buy this Nea skin before time runs out!!"
Me who main Steve: ☕️🗿No
Im generally not a big fan of fomo. Mostly because, as you said, most of the time I miss out simply because I wasn't there.
I think most of the time, it's better to just have things that take a while to earn. Makes it mean more than "you were there".
Hell, you could even make the requirements be something that get harder with time (prestige every character to X or smth) if you wanna flex being old.
BHVR: we dont want to use fomo
also BHVR: uses fomo everywhere
i dont remember the crowns being hard to get =.=
They should give out that one nea shirt everyone has begged for. If I remember correctly it was meant to be in a charity pack.
Cosmetics are whatever it’s the Halloween medkits/anniversary items I like to hoard like when I started playing was when blight released so right after PH anny but my first anniversary was these black n gold toolboxes those are what’s rare to me not cosmetics
Yeee but look at that way, a single skin from an old battle pass cost more than the battle past…BHVR would be losing so much money
But aside of Legacy Skins I think DbD‘s FOMO isn’t bad as people say…seasonal skins are well, seasonal they are coming back in a year and can be purchased with Auric Cell…and I would be feel bad if I couldn’t get the gnome chipmaker charm, this was fun too and I am a huge L4D fan
Old Crowns you had to collect Invitations (which could be stolen when getting downed) and had to escape, it was super fun! Because you had to use the character, so much variety in Survs and we had the old perk system, so I had so much garbage builds to run because I didn’t level the characters I don’t play and did most of the adept achievements…I‘m super fine with them coming, I wish they would tie them with escaping with the right Character + an Invitation, so you have more variety again but hey, doesn’t affect me at all since they are ugly and the year five ones looking like vaginas lol
I‘m genuinely surprised that survivor don’t like the event, I play mainly survivor and have the fun of my life…for me its just like Chaos Mode
Maybe im just heavily misremembering but i dont understand why people think the Crowns were hard to get.
You just had to grab the Crown from one of the pillars and escape with said survivor or end the trial as killer. And yes, escaping wasnt exactly easy, but we had more than enough tools to ensure we get quite far into the match.
And we had that for the years to follow.
So while i can see that it feels bad that other people just get all the stuff for free, it wasnt that big of a deal. I love feeling special aswell with the unique stuff that i own but its rly not other peoples fault for just not playing the game back then
I honestly have a big problem with FOMO, i play a lot of Warhammer so it's something i have come to realize i did without even thinking about it, i once drove 3 days to a convention to pick up a limited time, DBDs FOMO seems to not be as bad though since i feel no love for DBDs Battlepass compared to something like Fallout 76 or Hearthstone
The crowns were not hard to get. You just had to find the pillar (like what the current invitations are on). If you were on survivor you also had to escape but survivor was also dummy strong at the time, so that was also not very hard.
It was just tedious because you had to do it on every character you wanted it for. Maybe if you were exceptionally bad it was hard.
My idea would be just give a player an emblem that said tome/chapter # for every chapter they played a full game in
I just want to know when Nea's System Smasher is coming to the store. It was in the Rift right before I joined the game. Mandy SAID eventually all Very Rare outfits will come to the store, but System Smasher is the oldest Very Rare Rift outfit not added to the store. That, and the Rare ones, apparently they aren't? I have half of Dwight's Office Santa outfit due to it being on the free track of the Rift that was active when I joined the game, and it triggers my collection OCD to not have the full set.
I love your content Kaiser
I wasn't there for the 4th Anniversary so I don't remember, but I was already playing for the 5th and so on. And I can't say that the 5th Anniversary rewards were specifically sweaty to obtain. It wasn't as nowadays easy, but it was fine in general. Nowadays, of course, you get your event rewards pretty passively and in a relaxed way, but that's how it should be for ANY game event in the first place. You supposed to come to enjoy the game and celebrate certain occasions, not to compete and sweat for the rewards... So I guess you're cool an' shit because you did "bust" your bussy for all the earlier rewards, but that doesn't make you better/more experienced/privileged/etc. as a player only because all other newer players came into the game when it finally received all the vital (or most of them at least) QoL updates (and did received previous cheesy rewards for free), so you can actually enjoy the events at some degree.
P. S. And we all f know that in the end nobody (almost 99%) uses those halos and masks because they come along with the default boring wigs, so nobody is interested in them. And that's on gayriot.
But at least starting from now on they actually gave us masks with non-default wigs, thank feck.
i was around for the 5th anniversary and got my crown for the killer and survivor i liked, though i am a little bummed that the prestige of having them is gone, as that is the only reason id wear them (i agree that they look a little ass). overall though, i feel its no big deal. but i would like to see the devs add something to signify which crowns were earned during their anniversary, even if its just a bit of text in the menu
also, in the game blood td battles 2, they have profile badges you get every season that has the season number and where you placed on it that you get for your account just existing during the season, i think something like that would be really cool for dbd.
Im bit late haha. So the crowns in the 5th year (I didnt play the 4th so Im not sure) wasnt difficult at all to get, it was pretty easy. I get it when a company bets on FOMO, they can get money for it, but I simply cant understand why other players want to be exclusive and not let others have the same cosmetic, it just dont fit in my mind lol
The veterans should be happy about this. The crown will now not make them more likely to get tunneled, since it's not a signifier of a more dangerous opponent anymore.
I am fine with recolors of skins being FOMO personally, but that is basically it.
I am curious to know your opinion on Deep Rift cosmetics, since they are reskins of existed cosmetics from tomes and you can only get them if you get to tier 70+ on those rifts
they were hard to get yea really hard to get but NO ONE EVER USED THEM. the only fomo we should keep is chomsky gnome charm hehehe
does anyone actually wear the crowns anymore though? they've been in the game for 3 years now but even after the code was given out I haven't seen anyone wearing it
I been playing since just before sadako and I always wondered why some fools wore a big ass gold thing that floated above the grass and gave away thier position.
Personally as someone who did grind those party hats out it’s annoying as f but I’m also groan ass adult and don’t own behavior so not my choice
I’m still upset about the AOT collab being such a massive FOMO thing. I suppose it was just a bad omen.
I wouldnt care if they just gave me something to make me feel like my time grinding wasnt wasted
P100 should just be a solid gold skin, like a shitty COD reward
I played during that time. I got every single crown and it was miserable. The code is a great way to give people the crowns and anyone bitching about it has no reason to. No one even runs them anyway, so who cares?
The crowns were very easy to obtain, I don't know why these people are lashing out that much, you just had to grab the invitation, and escape (survivor) or finish the match in any way (killer) it seem at this point I see it as just, getting angry for the whole reason to get angry with something
Yes u right ✅️ ❤
Fomo sucks in any and all forms and I'm just getting so sick of it in gaming in general.
Losing access to a battle pass, especially one you've already PAID for should not be a fucking thing
I don't think it's even possible for you to make an entire video about rift fragments- 😭
Getting the crowns wasnt AS HARD to get. Im not just trying to stroke my own dick but getting hatch or a gate wasnt that hard especialy with keys still being in their pre nerf states.
i would say its okay to have free things with fomo as you can earn them with out it eating into your wallet, and also i wouldnt mind if we had a ton of these rewards as it can feel good to say i WAS there and even if you dont know about the game at that point. idk im okay with having an unc status simble. I wouldnt mind them brining new ones for players who joined now so they can get their own thing.
My last problem with it is just the fact we are getting 4TH FUCKING YEAR celebrations? its year 8. Why are we going back in time 4 years?? Also just the fact that they release a specificaly made 4th year annevarsery item for everyone.
im okay with the rift as it was announced from the get go that all cosmetics would return to the shop.... untill they announced, fuck you not everything will come to the shop. But bact to the point, it was clearly stated that nothing is exlusive to the rift, but i would say a specific year celebration with its own banner when hovering over it should come with the expecation of it staying rare
Meanwhile, League of Legends drops a skin for 500 dollars which will only be available once, for one month.
Thanks Kaiser's partner
Dead by daylight
Not only DBD I wish games like Fortnite could do this as well because fomo is pretty bad
it like life I bust my Ars to get it and then later every one gets it free that is BS
NOBODY in the DBD community wants FOMO…
Unless it benefits them
Disagree with FOMO. It should be for any and all.
Maybe this is a hot take but im going to stop buying the rift passes if the skins just come to the store later. Same with event cosmetics. No point in collecting exclusive stuff if itll just not be exclusive and easy to get. People like exclusive cool limited time stuff. I like FOMO for events and rift passes, but not just for store cosmetics.
