Solo que is often painful, but then you get that random wild game where the killer swears you're a SWIF but it's really 4 randoms that are super aware and focused. I love those games. ^.^

[@HuffdrewPaint]

That second one illustrates the allowed margin of error disparities pretty good.

[@Sean-ex9ip]

Killer is easy

[@danielmaster8776]

​@@Sean-ex9ip No. Only when the survivors are bad.

[@NewSirenSong]

Brother, it was basement trapper, he successfully got a second free hook because of it, where was the margin of error? The issue I have is that the second free hook happened in the first place, placing the traps around basement is as easy as holding m1 on a generator. Let's talk about making trappers traps not trigger on recently unhooked survivors and make them more impactful instead of kicking a horse when it's down like so many toxic players do.

[@Sean-ex9ip]

@Zaine Holt killers just love having full control and think they are entitled to 4ks so they can live out their serial killer fantasies. Haven't played this game in 4 years btw and it seems to have the same player base problems

[@danielmaster8776]

@@Sean-ex9ip The only ones with power fantasies are the survivors, because they're the ones standing around waiting to be chased, and tbagging at pallets and in the exits. In solo, and sometimes with killer, it can be possible to feel that power, but only when your opponents are already doing very poorly, for whatever reason. SWF has that power fantasy on command, whenever they want, except maybe against PC Blight. We find that chases which don't result in getting a survivor out of the game are a huge time waste, and the killer's always on the back foot from the start because of time, so the only way to curtail that is to tunnel. Chases which result in just an injure or just a slug don't mean anything, because survivors can heal in 16 seconds or less after a 45+ second chase, while also cranking out 1 gen per minute.

[@colossaldonut5190]

SoloQ turns DBD into a real survival-horror.

[@wjzav1971]

Sometimes you gotta love how Otz can immediately deduce most perks someone has by meeting them once.

[@F1rstNameLastName]

He's played the game so much to the point where he can instantly figure out someone's entire build with both perks and addons just from looking at them for 2 seconds

[@djekdozovitch3679]

You can do that at 100 hours of game. People just arent as aware as he is.

[@vladfane9938]

It's a different kind of feeling when you just sit down at the table and see a new 40 min video dropped by otz

[@strxwbxrry_420]

29:58 Bad take, Otz is a good teacher. As much as I love watching him play killer. I’m a survivor main and suck ass. Trying to learn from the way he plays is significantly easier than most streamers. He actively talks about what’s going on, what to be aware of when going against killers or being in a chase. Also, it’s really nice getting a change of pace from his content

[@bopply2616]

Otz: "People get mad at experienced players when they dont play perfect" Also Otz: Walks straight into a trap, fails a wiggle skill check, then runs staight into a second trap In the business, we call it foreshadowing

[@BungarangYT]

solo during the day is a death sentence. Everyone is immersed and the killers know so they bring gen slow and aura reading.

[@danielmaster8776]

I keep saying to myself and sometimes to them, "You guys can't just stand around and do nothing. You have to contribute somehow." I can't imagine bringing gen regression and expecting much, because the survivors I face are insane, but these teammates seriously let the killer have max value on all of that. If you're not giving killers downs constantly, Pain Res and Pop really don't do anything.

[@Nikkibuh]

gen slowdown and aura reading... so 80% of the perks?

[@danielmaster8776]

@@Nikkibuh What he might be getting at is he knows that at top level, those kinds of perks are jokes and don't really matter because they don't help with chase. So knowing that they're going against trash solos, they're cocky enough to run builds like that.

[@XaqNautilus]

"I'll go through the bathroom and pick her up from the back." 35:27 It's an interesting strategy, especially when taken out of context.

[@SgtStash]

Solo que is the true essence of the game. Trusting these other random survivors that you've never met before to complete a common goal. If the game wanted communication, it would be in the base game. But the lack of verbal communication is what makes the end result with good teamwork, that much better of an experience.

The second I saw the guy raise his gun, a shock of adrenaline went into my body and my heart started beating out of my chest and I just ran. I never thought a survival game would give me an adrenaline rush but here we are. The video title just reminded me of that to be honest :P

[@themr_wilson]

Botany Knowledge is slept on hard. 50% faster healing without any requirements or stipulations, you just have it. It's glorious! Faster heals means more time on gens, and those seconds add up quick. It counters Mangled wonderfully well, and I can't count how many times Botany got a heal off before the killer came back, where a normal heal simply couldn't
