This game is survivor sided and has been for two years; this is BHVRs vision for the game. Survivors just don't want to admit it because their role still feels like pure shit to play.

>Adding more survivor basekit perks skew the power too much too fast
>Ghoul et al. masked how weak killer actually is because they're broken and only after Springtrap release did people realise B tier killers can't keep up
>Killers don't get stronger ever, BHVR just makes their kit more accessible to shit players, see Clown
>Survivors have massive variety in strong perks, almost all of them are stronger in a SWF
>Killer has one build worth using, gen regression, of which no new perk has released in 3 1/3 years
>All of these gen regression parks have been nerfed multiple times over the years, to account for gens taking longer
>Even though hook stages were already made longer to compensate
>Perks stacking, eg. Vigil is genuinely broken
>All these things have quietly added up over time and people are only just now starting to notice as shiny new killer syndrome wears off
As soon as this new killer releases that isn't dashslop and everyone realises it can't do shit in the modern metagame combined with this new patch you're going to see the conversation shift dramatically and instantly.
