Each new game presents unexpected scenarios.
About Dead By Daylight - Silent Hill Edition
The Silent Hill Edition of Dead by Daylight includes the base game, 4 original add-ons (Of Flesh and Mud, Spark of Madness, Curtain Call and the Shattered Bloodline Chapters), the Silent Hill Chapter, the Alissa Gillespie outfit for Cheryl Mason and the Dark Wish outfit for The Executioner.
The Silent Hill Chapter includes a new map, Midwich Elementary School: the childhood trauma that once took place in its halls has since manifested itself into a twisted, nightmarish design. The new Killer is The Executioner: take control of Pyramid Head and wield his great knife to unleash his twisted brand of punishment on all who cross him.
The new Survivor is Cheryl Mason, a courageous, outspoken woman who survived the hellish Otherworld of Silent Hill, and exacted revenge on the Order that killed her father. With experience beyond her years, she's prepared to once again stand against any evil that confronts her.
Survive Together… Or Not - Survivors can either cooperate with the others or be selfish. Your chance of survival will vary depending on whether you work together as a team or if you go at it alone. Will you be able to outwit the Killer and escape their Killing Ground?
Where Am I? - Each level is procedurally generated, so you’ll never know what to expect. Random spawn points mean you will never feel safe as the world and its danger change every time you play.
A Feast for Killers - Dead by Daylight draws from all corners of the horror world. As a Killer you can play as anything from a powerful Slasher to terrifying paranormal entities. Familiarize yourself with your Killing Grounds and master each Killer’s unique power to be able to hunt, catch and sacrifice your victims.
Deeper and Deeper - Each Killer and Survivor has their own deep progression system and plenty of unlockables that can be customized to fit your own personal strategy. Experience, skills and understanding of the environment are key to being able to hunt or outwit the Killer.
Real People, Real Fear - The procedural levels and real human reactions to pure horror makes each game session an unexpected scenario. You will never be able to tell how it’s going to turn out. Ambience, music, and chilling environments combine into a terrifying experience. With enough time, you might even discover what’s hiding in the fog.
This review is my personal opinion, don't take it as an offense.
Dead by Daylight is a game that has stayed alive since 2016 not due to how good it is, but because of a lack of competition in the market (namely: Multiplayer "Horror" titles). However this review won't be focusing on that as it solely depends on other titles trying to get the same niche right.
Dead by Daylight manages to scratch an itch that hasn't really been touched. It is one among a few Multiplayer "Horror" games and one of the first. Personally, I wasn't able to find a single other game that has attempted this before Dead by Daylight, and that alone already grants it a boost in fame. Other companies have tried and failed to jump in on a market seemingly limitless in possibilities and yet on DbD has managed to maintain a constant player base without fading into obscurity as just another fad. And if I have to be honest, it's success baffles me, as the game doesn't really boast much in terms of mechanics, lore or gameplay (and especially lore which no matter how you twist, ends up being about as deep as a puddle during a heatwave in Florida). Somehow though, it seems to get a grip on you and manages to reel you back in just when you thought you were done. So then there must be something there ... right?
Let me preface this by saying that I don't think this review will ever be out of date, simply because of how the game works, with it's core mechanics ultimately remaining unchanged since the game's launch in June 14th 2016. Also I won't go in debt about content here since I've just started and this review is already too long.
"Dead by Daylight is a multiplayer (4vs1) horror game where one player takes on the role of the savage Killer, and the other four players play as Survivors, trying to escape the Killer and avoid being caught, tortured and killed.
Survivors play in third-person and have the advantage of better situational awareness. The Killer plays in first-person and is more focused on their prey.
The Survivors' goal in each encounter is to escape the Killing Ground without getting caught by the Killer - something that sounds easier than it is, especially when the environment changes every time you play."
-taken from description on Steam.
The game's addictiveness comes from it's simplicity. Survivors have one goal, which is to escape, and the Killer's goal is to prevent them from doing so. Given how much the game has expanded over the course of 5 years, there's plenty in the initial dose of playing to get you hooked. However I also mentioned earlier that this is also a flaw. After playing for a bit, the game starts to fall in a noticeable loop and the tasks the required to win a match get stale.
The way around that is to purchase more Killers (Survivors all behave roughly the same, and have the exact same price as Killers, aside from 3 new abilities called "Perks", which you can obtain from the shop with a degree of patience for cheaper) but the cost to obtain them with in-game currency is steep and grindy, with heavy encouragement to spend real money (surprise-surprise). That makes the game often frustrating to play on both sides, forming a swirl of toxicity in the dedicated community and some ... nauseating post-game chats.
Overall I won't recommend this to a casual player who isn't ready to dedicate themselves to long hours of grind. I would, however, recommend this to someone who is prepared to sink in a considerable chunk of time into the game, and enjoys the Horror genre in general.
In conclusion, I would give this game a solid overall 6/10. Thanks for reading!
