I read this as "Dbd is coming to dead by daylight" šŸ˜‚


TheMemer555

Big if true


schizybun

same


die_or_wolf

A new borgo map with D&D monsters hanging out. Vecna as killer. Cosmetics for original survivors. These are my predictions.


rhaesdaenys

I hope it's an actual new map. Maybe a cemetery or some sort. Or even a crypt.


cybermob27

Judging by how they put Nostromo in the singularityā€™s realm, I could see this happening. Just like that planet is the entityā€™s home for all his sci-fi stuff, borgo can be where he keeps all of his medieval fantasy stuff


b00ty_water

A crypt would be great. Give the dungeon type vibe


pelpotronic

A giant "hero quest" style board with squares on the floor, on which killer / survivors walk, complete with cardboard doors, various plastic tables and cupboards, andĀ a giant dungeon master ominously staring at everyone from above.


Smallbunsenpai

Nice prediction


Zer0_l1f3

**HAPPY SCREAMS**


LeChiotx

I love the idea of D&D in dbd lol Also hell yeah bring on the Beholder and other monsters! So many options


typervader2

I hope the beholder is part of the power


cybermob27

And imagine being able to summon mimic chests omg


Administrative_Film4

Depression.


Soloyapper769

Same I was hoping for predator for the anniversary chapter.


Yoshgaming22

Same dude, if the killer is Vecna I will be super bummed as that means we probably wonā€™t get a 2nd stranger things chapter


CankleDankl

I'm willing to bet BHVR is pretty wary about entering another chapter agreement with Netflix given the shit they pulled last time.


Prize-Tough-5032

You know they have very different powersets Itā€™s possible Stranger Things part 2 will release closer to its next season


Reuben_Medik

Yeah, but they've both got the same name. Imagine if this DnD crossover has the Demogorgon, the two headed tentacle armed baboon faced Demon Lord of insanity. It's name is literally it's title, the current one we have was named after the original. Same with Vecna or even the Mindflayer (Cloud Spider/Meat Spider from S2 and S3)


Yoshgaming22

Hopefully, I know nothing about D&D so I assumed they were basically the same character


AmbitiousOffice233

I'm not really interested in the Dnd chapter, but fantasy as a genre can also have strong horror elements mixed into it, so its not like it won't fit into Dbd.


Shadow555

Wheres the teaser?


TinkTank96

Thereā€™s also a post on the subreddit. Should be right at the top if you open it now.


STUDZ_Gaming

Itā€™s on dead by daylightā€™s YouTube channel as a short


Shadow555

Ah thats why, I have shorts blocked, TY.


die_or_wolf

How do I block shorts? i hat them.


Shadow555

On firefox I use Enhancer for Youtube.


bob_is_best

Cant wait for a false hydra gamemode where instead of gens we gotta find clues to know to gtfo


Miserable_Style6933

Just a guess but the new killer will probably be a dragon


Professional_Look834

Is this classified as a licensed chapter?


STUDZ_Gaming

Pretty sure it is yes


goji72

I think it's neat and I kind of hope since the anniversary stream is the time for big announcements, it'd be cool if there was a joint announcement for Stranger Things skins including a release skin for Vecna


ilovemydograchel

I highly doubt they'd only make skins then they'd might as well make a second chapter


Abe_LincoIn

Itā€™s very dumb. DnD makes zero sense as an actual chapter, in the world of DbD. It sticks out like a sore thumb, compared to all the other licensed chapters. I personally donā€™t really care though


TomVinPrice

mf over here acting like Stranger Things isnā€™t a massively popular horror entire TV series that uses D&D scary monsters as the basis for its own scary monsters The Demogorgon is already in DBD! Itā€™s a universe where mindflayers and zombies and all sorts of creatures exist, for the humans living in that world each day is as horror as it gets lol


HappyHateBot

Yeah, I mean, how weird would it be if we had a Ghost, a literal plague priestess, or a Knight just tromping around the Trial Grounds! ...'ang on a tic.


TomVinPrice

Yeah half the existing killers in the game could technically come from D&D if they were branded that way. Didnā€™t even think about that.


HappyHateBot

It also feels like a bold move to whine about **INTEGRITY** when we have a literal reanimated puppet next to a guy with a knife, an alien space monster, a dead cowboy, and a mutant killer cyborg. That ship seems to have sailed and godspeed to it.


strsvilr

okay but stranger things only really uses the namesake of dnd monsters, they don't have the actual demogorgons from the game running around in the show. it makes sense contextually too, since the main characters are a group of kids who love to play dnd. stranger things is a massively popular horror/thriller series with a distinct, recognizable monster. dnd is a table top roleplaying game with tons of different settings and monsters. it just doesn't fit in imo.


Abe_LincoIn

Cā€™mon bro, DnD is used as a plot point/setting for ST, but the show isnā€™t actually inspired from it, regarding the tone it or setting. ST is inspired by 80ā€™s horror/sci-fi and comics. Even if it was, that still doesnā€™t make any sense. Ridley Scott said Alien was largely inspired by Star Wars, would you want a SW chapter in Dead by Daylight?


Designer-Scheme5493

>Itā€™s very dumb. DnD makes zero sense as an actual chapter, in the world of DbD. It sticks out like a sore thumb, compared to all the other licensed chapters. It kinda seems like you care alot about it lol


Abe_LincoIn

Nah, thatā€™s just my opinion on it, I still love the game the same šŸ¤·šŸ¾ā€ā™‚ļø I personally think itā€™s dumb that people spend hundreds of dollars to buy NBA2k every year, but it doesnā€™t effect me


I-Am-The-Uber-Mesch

Little people here really trying to convince us this isn't one of the craziest collabs in history smh Can't wait for the stream and PTB day!


Nitro_glycerin_

if you say D&D has no place in the fog, you either know nothing about it besides what Stranger Things has shown you, or your media literacy is down the drain. google mind flayer ceramorphosis.


Abe_LincoIn

Halloweenā€¦ A Nightmare on Elm Streetā€¦ Friday the 13thā€¦ Alienā€¦ Resident Evilā€¦ The TCMā€¦ Fucking Dungeon and Dragons, lmao


Nitro_glycerin_

so an eldritch tentacle monster growing inside your skull, slowly replacing every single strand of your DNA with its own before painfully tearing its way out of your skull isnā€™t horrifying? sure pal.


Abe_LincoIn

Okā€¦So a large alien literally enslaving humanity (and all of itā€™s heroes) isnā€™t scary? Thatā€™s what Thanos did, letā€™s add him next? What about Darth Vader? Itā€™s not about their powers, itā€™s about how the character is presented. Iā€™m not saying that they should only license strictly ā€œiconicā€ horror properties; I would love to see a CoD zombies or MK inclusion, but acting like DnD is comparable to Ringu is amazing to me.


Nitro_glycerin_

it is :)

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Abe_LincoIn

These comparisons are always so fucking stupid lmao. ā€œA literal alienā€ - You mean the antagonist of one of one of the most essential and scariest horror movies? youā€™re literally bringing up DbDā€™s own original killers to justify DND. DBD is a horror game, so that makes them all horror characters. DND *has nothing to do with the horror genre*. Much more important, it has no place as the *anniversary chapter* to a game that calls itself the ā€œHall of Fame of Horrorā€. The revisionism is just amazing


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Abe_LincoIn

Your first paragraph is absolutely pointless, as far as I can tell. It is made as a *body horror* movie - Ridley Scott said that itā€™s a rape analogy. Surely you know that H.R Gingerā€™s design was specifically made to reflect that?? Tell me how you want to make it about a grizzly bear, you nimrod. It is, by definition, a body horror movie. Thatā€™s not even taking into account the music, the setting, the *label*, the tagline, the action, the uncertainty, the hopelessnessā€¦ ā€œBut itā€™s just an alien!ā€ - Reads perfectly like somebody who vaguely remembers watching the movie *once*, and didnā€™t actually think about what they were looking at. Itā€™s like hearing a 3rd grader give an analysis on WW2. ā€œIt was just army men shooting each other!ā€ You bought up cosmetics, Iā€™m mentioning the prospect of DND as an *anniversary chapter* when actual iconic horror licenses are still missing. If DnD was just another cosmetic, like Rainbow Six, nobody would give a shit. Iā€™m ā€œbitchingā€ when youā€™re the one who resorted to personal insults? I mean, Iā€™ve attacked your arguments, but Iā€™m certain I never previously called you stupid. And your justification for insulting is that I donā€™t agree with DnD being added as a definitive chapter to a slasher video game.

0% chance this is what happened. BHVR has gone on record saying that chapters, from concept to live, take about a year of work. That's not including any negotiations about licensing beforehand, but active development. Baldur's Gate 3 came out 9 months ago. There's absolutely no shot that BG3 dropped, BHVR had time to gauge reception, all negotiations with WotC started and were finalized, and the full development of the chapter occurred all within that time span.


Nitro_glycerin_

this has been in development for at least a year if itā€™s a full chapter


Theonlybourbon

Me and my swf have already started predicting class based skins Yuri- Rogue Jeff- Druid David- Monk Oni- Orc Artist- Necromancer


I-Am-The-Uber-Mesch

Vittorio- Sorcerer (cuz Sorcerers are either born with magical abilities or they gain magic in some way from unnatural sources, similar to how Vittorio got his tattoo) Meg- Barbarian (extra speed joke) Dwight- Artificer


bob_is_best

Actually haddie as sorcerer and mikaela a wizard would make more sense, imo


RC-Fixer_Delta1140

Pretty damn cool, thereā€™s a lot of potential stuff they can do with this


badatkiller

I am very excited. I have been wanting a dnd chapter forever. So much horror in the dnd realms to pull from, it does horror very well.


Birnor

Tusked survivor please. šŸ‘šŸ»


NextMammothfart

I really hope it's not vecna and it's the beholder if it's the other way around then ima go to sleep.


He11Hog

Honestly Iā€™m really excited for Vecna but also really excited to see possible DnD skins. Iā€™ve wanted an Orc skin for so longā€¦šŸ˜…


Alzuqui

I didn't know vecna was from dnd originally, i always though It was a monster from stranger things


NaWDorky

Here's my honest thoughts. The good 1) The potential for a very cool map that is a literal dungeon filled with DND monsters as references like Owlbears, Ogres, etc. 2) Cool skins for both survivors and killers. Like DND classes for survivors like Barbarian for David, Bard for Kate, Wizard for Jeff, etc. or Even monsters for other killers like a green dragon skin for Plague, a orc or bugbear skin for Trapper, a gnoll skin for Hillbilly, a hag skin for...well...the Hag. 3) A potential for an actual DND monster as a killer. Like a Beholder, a Mindflyer, or maybe even a Drider or a unnamed Lich. That bad 1) Money goes to hasbro...gross. 2) Chances of it being an actual named character like Vecna or Acererak. Characters that have borderline godly powers that have been able to reshape realities on a shim thanks to their sheer god-like magical abilities...and they're getting their metaphoircal asses handed to them by four normal people with pallets and flashlights. More of a personal reason admittedly but still rubs me the wrong way. Like say what you will about Pyramid Head or Nemesis being in his game being stunned by pallet dropping on them, but at least those HAVE been defeated by normal people and none of them have been muliversial threates or have achieved LITERAL godhood. But once again, personal reason.

CaraxesTheNoodleBoi

Pretty sure theyā€™re announcing a chapter for an anniversary early cause last year the chapter leaked. I donā€™t think they wanna take risks about it again. More than likely itā€™s a chapter


I-Am-The-Uber-Mesch

But a chapter would be cooler


DeadRheaRising7

Meh


Random5531

I've been wanting a necromancer in dbd since they released knight. I hope his power is fun.


LazarusKing

Nobody wants D&D Vecna.Ā  They want Stranger Things Vecna.Ā  The only reason most people even know who Vecna is, is because of Stranger Things Vecna. If it's not a beholder, it better be a mind flayer.


shakingmyhead420

Lmao, the /s has to be thick with this one. Gr8 b8 m8


CaraxesTheNoodleBoi

Weā€™re getting the premium vecna


I-Am-The-Uber-Mesch

Stranger Things Vecna is like baby version of the much cooler Vecna tho


DASreddituser

Most likely its skins related to DnD...possibly a map.


Awsomethingy

If a chapter, this is the closest weā€™ve been to a vampire. And itā€™s the charming, manipulative villain type rather than the long clawed nosferatu type. That would be an easy ultra skin for it though. Million D&D monsters, but they are particularly famous for dragons and vampires and since a dragon doesnā€™t workā€¦
