it's good for dbd but it's especially good in games like bannerlord, because the smaller you're the bigger area your shield is covering and you actually have less chance of getting hit and not just by arrows, but by melee attacks too. so yeah being a midget is OP

[@victhefoxygamer_6180]

Lotta people are confused about the pick-up animation. Y'all do realize that Chucky is a toy possessed by some psychopath named Charles Lee Ray, and that's what's happening. Charles picks you and the survivor up to carry, this is also why Chucky is in third person. We're watching everything through the eyes of Charles. This is why we don't see him during the carry because we are actually Charles, controlling Chucky like a puppet. It also explains why Charles is there when in a queue as well.

[@LazyMaybe]

"Y'all do realize that Chucky is a toy possessed by some psychopath named Charles Lee Ray," Bold of you to assume that DBD players know anything about the properties these characters come from

[@tankiegirl]

It's just a little awkward since Charles Lee Ray's ghost is not really depicted that way. They might have wanted to make Charles Lee Ray the killer and have his power voodoo if it was more lore accurate

[@shnitzel9052]

One of my favorite things about him is his 3rd Person Camera, since it really does prove the bhvr are willing to try things that shake the core mechanics of the game, which DBD has needed for a long time. Hopefully this means they might try some patch to make doing gens actually fun, who knows.

[@Meosychs]

Can't wait for the among us chapter with tasks instead of gens.

[@BunnychanFarabee]

Brad Dourif absolutely SLAYED the voice acting. I feel like Chucky wouldn't be nearly as fun without the authentic lines and trash talk, and holy hell did he deliver. You can just tell how much fun he had playing this role in the studio, it's hard not to smile. It makes you wonder what Freddy would be like if BHVR actually got Robert Englund. Also, the fact that the legendary skin will be voiced by Jennifer Tilly means that BHVR will have added the talents of not one bu two Oscar-nominated actors to the game roster in the same year. Can't wait to hear her jokes, because you just know she's going to be just as animated.

[@NinjapowerMS]

Robert Englund is seriously underrated as a voice actor. He was so good as Scarecrow in Injustice 2. That would be the closest you'll get to what Freddy with proper voice acting would sound like.

[@coolbeans3635]

chucky's hitbox is also noticeably smaller so if you hug the loop tight enough the 110% movement speed doesnt even matter

[@Avoncarstien]

Yeah, he catches up at loops *noticeably* faster than other killers. The footsteps mechanic is definitely a drawback designed to counteract a lot of his upsides, and there's a lot of little knobs there that they can tune to balance him if need be, which imo is great. If it turns out he's too strong or too weak in the PTB, they have a ton of options for adjusting him for live.

[@ScottJund]

has that been verified? i thought it might be the case but i cant honestly tell for sure

[@Ahandle272]

So we have a 116 killer that is invisible in a good chunk or loops? We are screwed 💀

[@coolbeans3635]

@@ScottJund was testing it with a friend and that seems to be the case unless hes carrying a surv, for example those awkward rock fillers in the middle of the street in garden of joy elevate him when he steps on their sides, whereas normal killers/when hes picking someone up dont get elevated. it may be VERY slight or just graphical but idk

[@SolidRazo]

@OOM-26maybe but the difference between Myers and Chucky is that Chucky is fucken tiny and like Scott said it’s really easy to mind game survivors as him thx to his 3rd person pov and stealth So perhaps a 105 movement speed might actually be warranted with how many advantages he has And unlike tier 1 Myers, Chucky has a chase power further making 105 make more sense, plus he’s a tiny ass doll it would make sense if he was slower then usual

[@TheJackMouse]

Chucky: "Hey guys, check it out., My power lets me go into a stealthy mode where I'm real short and sneaky, and then after shouting real loud I lunge forward really fast at the survivor and stab them! I can even turn corners!" Community: "OH MY GOD! THAT'S SO COOL!!! Hey... Does anyone hear that noise or is it just me? Eh', must be nothing." *Camera cuts to Pig, sobbing heavily while drinking an entire bottle of whiskey through the mask*

[@george1036]

If he was added before the furtive chase rework he may have been the first killer who it was worth running the perk on

[@ynglink]

I'm pumped for Chucky. That said, not sure why people are comparing his ability to Hillbilly or Oni as you did when it's closest to Pig's. Stealth Mechanic with a Charge Dash Attack. It's better than Pig's, but it's the closest comparison versus anything else people are using.

[@ChaseJonas75]

I'm fairly certain it's just because of actual controls. It feels like an Oni dash, not a Pig dash, even if it mechanically is more like Pig's since like you said it comes from stealth.

[@rickydodson1539]

Honestly, I’ve been loving the design choices in the last few chapters. I think they are on a good streak when it comes to killers. I’ve pretty much loved every killer after Skull merchant (we don’t talk about her). I think this is the peak of their creative teams ability to make fun and engaging content. Even though I’m not a big fan of Chucky, I can tell the team loved the work they put into him. It makes me super excited to play him.

[@Brutal_Cabrera]

Friends til the end is actually a decent combo with STBFL since the perk can discourage the obsession to come for rescues. Even though it’s inconsistent, Knowing where the obsession is, is great info for STBFL

[@poisonflyer1474]

Thank god we barely got any leaks because this was a really nice surprise. Also looks really fun to play

[@oneautumnleaf2622]

Its really nice how good his anti-looping is just bc how small he is.

[@plasmahandoku1073]

One Niche thing about the perk Friends till the end is the ability that the Obsession will switch off to that one random survivor. So what does this mean? You can use the perk Fugitive Chase where as soon as you hook the obsession with Friends till the end, another survivor will get the obsession at the same time you will get the undetectable status while knowing the location of that survivor. If the hooked survivor gets saved, the effect of fugitive chase won't work because the one hooked is no longer the obsession.

[@plasmahandoku1073]

@OOM-26 May have to run like Jolt. Since you need some sort of slowdown.

[@WolfBlade606]

I feel like battery could be used in a very gimmicky "stronger as the game goes" build with fire up and maybe something similar that gets stronger as the game begins to shift to you losing

[@themr_wilson]

Batteries Included - Tinkerer - Machine Learning - Rancor seems to work pretty well with Hidey-Ho sprinkled in for map-wide confusion

[@Tericho]

The best sign for me is that I played for 6 hours and want to keep playing. That hasn't happened for the majority of the recent PTBs for me.

[@Brawlatron]

Yeah, this killer is a massive W, save for a couple of the perks. SPEAKING OF, just did a couple games with a full Obsession Swap build (Friends Till The End, Furtive Chase, Nemesis, Game Afoot) and... It might just be PTB things, but it felt GOOD.

[@DEEVIOUS1S]

The video ending with the mori hammer in mid-air was perfect

[@HalcyonRemnant]

I think my absolute favorite part of chucky so far is that his stealth mechanic into a dash is so good that it could inadvertently be considered another pig nerf

[@joshkeller2671]

I've been asking for chucky in the game for years now. Always just thought it would be funny having an extremely short killer. He seems tricky to master but can be very satisfying to play as and against. Looking forward to seeing him

[@emirinobambino]

I am amazed they added Chucky to the game AND it's as good as it is--it was one of the big horror films I never expected would come to DBD because of the limitations having such a tiny Killer and not having a clear direction for his power. BHVR has actually been doing excellent recently and it's highly encouraging.

[@lordchipo]

The blind perk might be good on the Singularity hubris build.

[@Brawlatron]

Eh, the trick there is to hug the pallet to force Larry's teleport to break it, hindering him. By that point the blind will have worn off.

[@slavajuri]

I've been wanting this double blindness perk for a while. It's just so funny to me to allow killers to easily punish survivors who go for flashlights, pallets, or sabotage. More of this please!

[@josetomascamposrobledano4618]

The only thing I will 100% celebrate cause they can’t change it is the fact WE FINALLY GOT A 3RD PERSON KILLER!

[@loneone559]

furtive chase + batteries included might be a decent synergy. if you are on a map with a middle generator, it might be in your best interest to let survivors complete it that way the rest of the game you will activate batteries included many times. especially if that middle gen is in a main building, you can get that speed boost while looping main (think of saloon or haddonfield main building loop)

[@yukarithegapyoukai8191]

Being short is fun. As someone who used sadakos height a few times to mind game its definitely great.

[@martinvraniskoski7379]

Friends to the end seems strong enough to be a scourge hook, looks very fun

[@Existinginmymind]

Sadly he need a nerf. The lunge is too far and the fact he can go under pallets and has undetectable is just crazy.

[@ihavebraindamage4445]

I think batteries included should be buffed a considerable amount and use it to counter the gameplay of just running to where there are no gens being worked on

[@knavenformed9436]

There's so many quick aura read abilities that could make a nasty build about lengthening them to a long read with Lethal Pursuer

[@Katana314]

Hidey-Ho mode seems like a bit of a better implementation of Pig's crouch. Like Pig, it's both his antiloop and his stealth. Instead of trading off movement speed or offensive capabilities, it just only turns on for a certain amount of time. So, players looking to dash forward realize "Huh, I have to enter this 'mode' before I can dash? Okay..." Then start experimenting with good ways to use that stealth just before applying that dash hit.

[@frb5237]

Maybe the speed boost by completed gens perk would be decent in an endgame build. super speed with noed?

"It lingers for %5"

[@brett1908]

I know chucky will be a good killer, he’s short like ghostface crouch without losing movement speed, he has a dash that damages, he has undetectable and most importantly he’s in 3rd person, he can actually consistently mind game at shack on the check spots for survivor, he basically has everything all around except for map control but lots of other things make up for that, I really like his design too it’s cool and new and nothing like BHVR has done before.

[@vladspellbinder]

How DARE you cut out the Mori there at the end! I had been wanting to see it every time but nope. When I saw Otz's video recommended to me I ha to check to make sure this wasn't April and is in fact still November. Child's Play was never something I expected to see in Dead By Daylight. Chucky being so short is really going to mess with so many people, especially trying to blind him. Mostly thanks for the video Scott, except for the Mori block.

[@UsefulCompanion]

As you haven't mentioned it here, are you aware that you can vault pallets and windows WHILE dashing and CONTINUE the dash?

[@ScottJund]

Yup! it just ends up not being super useful unless they vault and run in a max 45 degree cone away from the vault

[@NinjapowerMS]

Yeah it's a neat trick but it's VERY situational there's only so little situation you could use it. Survivor just turning left and right and it's just a free escape, Maybe a mobility tool? But there's barely any proper window set ups unless you specifically leave pallets dropped I guess.

[@william4996]

I hadn't heard anything about this... so this is quite a fun surprise to see in my sub box.

[@FlipflopB]

I could see a build using batteries included, coup, fire up, and machine learning, where their perks do nothing until gens start getting completed

[@ItsJustTom]

Everyone say its 3rd person. Its actually 2nd person. like it says Its playing from the perspective of another person looking at the character. The camera is person 1 Human form chucky looking at person 2 Chucky. and actually switch to first person when you pickup someone. Gameplay wise its "3rd person" but really its 2nd

[@welshshortie2345]

Chucky looks absolutely miserable to play against you can't loop him because of his power he has stealth mode and you can't see him while trying to loop looks like another killer where the basic tactic is to Hold W with sprint burst

[@frayjais2942]

One thing you're forgetting about the survivors side is is that you can see chucky's foot prints through walls of he's close enough. I've had great success using just that to loop him when you can't see him.

Its so incredibly creative and fun. I dont think he'll be busted but i think a lot like his size and how to loop him will be hard to fully figure out cuz hes got so much to him I think one nerf chucky will get is after his lunge he'll be slowed down more kinda like xeno was. Is chucky healthy for the balance of the game? likely not but this is the kinda fun shit we need in dbd. Its become so stale and samey now we have a character that literally changes the game cuz he has the same view as survivors.
