Dead By Daylight | SLENDER | Spotlight Concept

A fan-made concept for a Slender chapter in Dead By Daylight, in the style of the official Spotlight trailers. Includes a new map and Killer.
An extra minute of this concept, which was removed due to severe compression issues, can be found here: • Dead By Daylight | SLE...
This project, like all of my previous has been made in the Unity game engine. I have recreated the base game so that I can implement custom content into it like this.
THIS IS A FAN-MADE, NON-PROFIT VIDEO. Dead By Daylight, Marble Hornets and Slenderman belong to their respective owners.

My favorite part about this is Slenderman wasn't invited or taken by the Entity. The survivors feared his story so much, their fear was strong enough to gain his attention and show up. That is actually terrifying since its based on the real life "myth" where if people fear something fictional so much for long periods of time, that very thing can become real

[@wheatdraws532]

Yep! That was an intentional design from the start of the concept to weave Slender naturally into DBD. It made it feel more alien and unreasonable, plus while writing it I was very keen on trying to replicate my own experience as a kid hearing about Slenderman and it just being passed around via word of mouth and through memetic interaction.

Even of we say we take out some tools that World assist in removing a Page from a wall/tree/etc. toolbox-addons for Gens are wasted entirely. Same for gen perks with survivors.

While this concept is great, except for the fact that the Slenderman instantly takes pages (which is kinda broken, basically you down or hurt someone, take the page and chase. It should be a choice if you take the page or keep the chase). I wanted something along the lines of you shouldn't see him or you'll be debuffed.

Whole life? Bro?

[@reidmoore8754]

I love the concept and overall the power is really good in its own right. Only thing I would probably say is to not make Slender able to pick up the page instantly. Especially because of his teleport/killer instinct finding ability he could pick it up and continue the chase without an issue. I would only make it like a 2 second channel or something just to slow him down enough to choose between catching the survivor or a slight delay in it.

[@spirittail4958]

I mean sure but just because slender can teleport (which would most likely be used sparringly and saved for long distance targets) doesn't mean that whatever he's teleporting too is going to provide him a page, and the whole point is to collect pages before he gets 8 himself just gotta keep your distance. Also it seems like Slenderman isn't really aimed towards chasing per sae given the engineering towards the unnerved status effect, it's most likely that slender man is more meant to get the jump on people, with the fact they can't have any form of awareness of him ahead of time until he's already stabbed them. Especially in the case of the invasive silence perk (which given it's synergy is probably gonna be the meta) on top of unnerved which would essentially make the survivors unable to hear anything period. (Also Im assuming that invasive silence is going to be the main used perk because the other two are heavily situational with either totems being around or targeting specific survivors which would probably be hard to keep track of )

[@CantBeJulius]

I really like how the lore of this killer isnt "he was taken by the entity" and is "He was formed by the fears of survivors trapped in the entitys realm." It really fits what slender is supposed to be. A folktale and legend that terrorises the world.

[@sideways_chip_eater6420]

Maybe one of the survivors caught in the entity's realm experienced slenderman and them telling the story causes him to target the other survivors which makes it spread like a virus, and the slenderman you're playing as is most likely a basic killer that the survivor think is slenderman due to paranoia slenderman

[@logeyperogi1805]

He is the embodiment of the concept that what you believe can manifest itself into reality Basically, the idea is that if you truly believe in something enough, the universe can manifest that thing into reality, like if you put faith of success into the universe, your faith and belief will manifest and the universe will bring you success If enough people believed in Slenderman, he would eventually manifest himself into existence

[@YazzyTheRogue]

I think an interesting idea for a survivor with this would be a story teller, with perks based on twisting stories to add their own made up weaknesses to the killer that manifests, like a bane bless totem that slows down or weakens the killer in its range, based off of mythical banes, maybe also spreading certain items for the mythical killers around the totem(like soy beans for oni, a crucifix for the ghost based killers, etc) and mythical taboos that function like a placeable temporary doorway or window block. Edit: probably Japanese spirit seals for the ghosts instead of crucifix, since they are both Japanese ghosts

[@GreatWorkBoss]

@@jaydenlobbe7911 I like to think The Entity enlisted the help of a unwilling Tim to his trials due to him being the only man alive that was every able to resist The Operator's power and survive control over Alex in their final fight. The Entity would probably buff him with some slight supernatural abilities to aid in underming The Operator's intrusion. His first perk allows Tim's Medicine to spawn in the Trial to negate Slenderman's abilities, allowing Generators to come back or lower his power once all pages are collected. His second perk would highlight his ability to resist and almost fight back against Slenderman to protect his friends. Making it so if you are in a chase, the killer cannot see any scratch marks or hear any noise from other survivors for as long as the chase goes until you are put in the dying state. His third perk is a gift from The Entity itself. With its desire to protect Tim and sabotage The Slenderman, if you are hooked, you and the killer suffer from the Blindess status effect for 6/8/10 seconds

I LOVE the power by the way, maybe add on that if you stay looking at Slenderman the ‘unnerved’ status slowly builds on survivors. Restricting sight is a gameplay mechanic that hasn’t been done before (except for the Dredge) and adds the one thing about Slenderman that you left out, look at him and die/hallucinate.

This concept did not disappoint!! I love the idea of changing the environment of the game. Keeps it from being boring and introduces potential different mechanics when bringing forth potential killers :)

[@lordlonewolf98]

Dude we need this to happen, if we start here, we can have ppl like Jeff the killer and the rake and maybe more to show up to the game.

[@pyrodemic813]

Slenderman seems genuinely terrifying to face. Well done!

[@Dragonraiser11]

This is probably one of the best Spotlight concepts you've made thus far! I have a few Ideas myself for new survivors. Carl Ross is from the Slender the Arrival game, and investigated Slenderman until his untimely demise. Kate Miller is also from the Slender the Arrival game, but not only that, she's the player from Slender the 8 pages (at least that's what Slender the Arrival decided to make a thing). She became Slenderman's proxy by the end of Slender the Arrival, but she was haunted by the entity all her life thanks to a generational curse.

[@MrFusion]

I'd love to see one of the characters from Marble Hornets get added, but that will almost certainly never happen. Just noticed that they use quotes from Marble Hornets for the add-ons, nice touch from them.

[@RaglandIncorporated]

A limited sight effect to block vision of teleporting is honestly a stroke of genius. I wish we could have DBD server with mods allowed, I would want to see this so much.

[@Blood_Bunny_]

I love this idea. Ever since I started playing dbd I couldn't help but wonder why they haven't incorporated any creepypasta characters

[@tallstar513]

God, I love the description for the Iridescent Cufflink. The Entity reluctantly empowering a killer is an absolutely fascinating concept.

[@sunflowerboinagachika]

The “something awful” reference was amazing, thank you for that. And if Slender were to come with survivors, who do you think they’d be, and what perks do you think they’d come with?

[@whiskii]

Maybe they'd put the two main characters from Marble Hornets in (can't remember their names, haven't watched them in a while).

[@Ashley_J.W]

@@whiskii there's 3 main characters(tim, jay and alex)

[@youraveragemop6300]

Maybe the protagonist from Slender the Arrival? Or as the other person said, the protagonists from Marble Hornets.

[@SmokeyMarshmallows]

Like them to be legendary cosmetics

[@MissYamIherexxx]

I think Kate from The Arrival could be cool

[@therandomyoutuber1694]

It's so depressing that this isn't an official thing. I'd kill to see this in game.

[@frank0tk115]

friend, your concept is really scary, it would make dbd's touch of terror come back, very good job

[@Masoncf]

making dead by daylight scary again. Love it

[@redvelvet9081]

Your work is beyond impressive and honestly deserve to be hired by the team. This level of detail and work is very rare when it comes to fan spotlights and recreations like these! Some chapters/concepts I think might be interesting: -Sweet Tooth (Twisted Metal) -Lady Dimitrescu (Resident Evil) -Jack Torrance (The Shining) -The Candyman -The Thing -Hannibal Lecter

[@kitsunemusicisfire]

It was an amazing concept. I don't know if you made the Slender model from scratch or bought it online, but either way, it's a terrifying and accurate model. I liked the idea of adding a Proxy skin from the Slender game. I don't really like how Slender himself can take the pages, because I feel that's a little TOO broken, but I could be wrong. Anyways, excited to see the next DBD concept!

[@HB-fq9nn]

Slender man doesn’t see the aura of the pages, so he can only find them via luck. Basically, the match becomes a scavenger hunt for multiple Lament Configurations. Survivors see the aura of the pages, but take longer to collect them. Killer can pick up pages instantly, but doesn’t know where to find them.

[@ICityCatI]

@@HB-fq9nn How would game balance be affected by neither the killer nor the survivors being able to see the pages? As the concept stands, I believe that the gameplay would be quite erratic, with some games having the survivors instantly getting the pages due to easy RNG, or others where it's a slog and they can't get them to escape. Perhaps having no vision of the pages for both sides would help balance this?

[@HB-fq9nn]

@@ICityCatI Or maybe the aura is only visible when in close proximity to the pages. Having survivors see all the objectives across the map, while the killer has to come across them by luck, seems to favour the survivors too heavily. Besides, 20 seconds to collect a page, as opposed to spending 90 seconds to complete a gen, just doesn’t feel right.

[@MythicTF2]

@@HB-fq9nn Yeah, thats honestly the biggest problem with this concept. It throws off the timing for literally EVERYTHING else on this would be killer. DBD, as it stands right now, has precarious timings in place that softly favor the killer. If, for example, you lower gen times to 20 seconds but leave everything else the same you'd end up in a spot where survivors are way more powerful than the killer since their entire objective can, in theory, be done in like.. 2 minutes.

[@darkskull8938]

survivor main spotted

[@MidnightHedgehog365]

This was awesome! I feel like this could definitely be a thing with some tweaks to his kit. I doubt behavior would change the gameplay loop from gens to pages and I'd imagine it'd be more of a side objective thing. In my head it would probably work a bit more like the onryo. How picking tapes give you condemned but the incentive is she can't teleport to you. Maybe let's say whenever a survivor is hooked they become unnerved. Picking up pages cleanses the unnerve but Slendy gets more powerful with each page picked up. To me, personally, it doesn't make sense having Slendy pick up the pages himself if his whole stick is spreading fear to the masses to then become tangible. And it'll kinda put you in the same type of position plague puts you in. Either everyone is unnerved the whole game and you never see him coming or he gets more powerful but you can react quicker, pick your poison. It'll also help you close out games where you somehow got all 4 survivors 2 hooked and the mechanic itself will help combat tunneling. You have a larger incentive to hook survivors and then move to the next to give that survivor a chance to cleanse their unnerved. I love the hex name Word of Mouth that has such a great ring to it. I think blocking totems mechanics would be really cool too and the negative effects applies to people who cleanse totems. Well done!

[@wurmrave6831]

I dont even play dead by daylight and the quality of this is astounding. Im shocked that they havent hired you yet.

[@TheOnlyChoy]

Love it! DBD needs fresh new objectives so badly

[@Straight-Hate]

I thought the IT spotlight concept was the pinnacle of your ideias and effort, but damn I was mistaken. This is a whole another level. A killer that can enter the entity realm and change her rules, giving the game a whole new ideia of gameplay and major objective...you guys are amazing. Of all the chapters concept you guys made, I hope that BHVR really give a chance to this one. So much potential.

[@troytactic]

This would be phenomenal, I genuinely love the map as well! I love the foggy park idea

[@sirsaxon7786]

This is exactly what I'd want for a slenderman chapter. He's the killer I've wanted most in DBD since I started playing in 2018

[@capitanotobiii]

I love the concept and everything about it and even the voice of you explaning everything is just amazing and fits so perfectly

[@l0nele]

This is truly amazing. I love these concepts and the visuals to go along! I hope the devs see this

[@PokeGuy6]

This is absolutely cool, the concept is amazing and Slenderman looks more terrifying than before. Also the map looks perfect

[@HunterRJ666]

Love seeing all of these concept showcases. BHVR needs to take notes

[@Mann_Person]

These concepts are only getting better and better! I cannot fathom just how well made these are! Incredible job, Rarithlynx!

[@jakebissell7930]

These concept trailers are truly amazing worth the wait for every minute!

[@W1s3guy95]

Honestly don't understand how y'all aren't hired by the dbd dev team. Y'all have some amazing ideas

[@SunoxMoon]

This is beautiful! You guys are amazing!

[@mota.0278]

can't calculate the effort you putted in those projects, such a legend

[@ByronJoe]

If this works out the way you picture it, he's undoubtedly gonna be TOP killer.

[@Raccoon-man2253]

This is so ridiculously cool!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@KingBoiTheFirst]

A little detail to add that would be great is that when survivors get the unnerved status effect, the survivor could actually looked unnerved like looking around in fear like how you get when you get madness tier 3.

[@MrSlendyMannn]

This is one of my favourite concept videos so far. I can completely imagine Slender Man being like this if DBD somehow managed to get the license.

[@purple5823]

This concept was pretty spine chilling. I personally feel like making part of the power being able to help out in chases would be a bit more interesting considering the amount of chaotic paranoia Slender can cause on his victims, not to mention how he can make them actually sick and cause a seizure if they are too close to them while being sick, not to mention his long-ranged tentacles that could help with attacks. But still, the entire concept gives Slender this creepy, unnerving and overwhelming presence that I loved. Awesome job guys.

[@nai170]

Insanely good! First i thought this is real until i read fan-made

[@TheMisterman15]

As someone who just started playing dead by daylight the other day I really want to see most of your spotlights videos become reality. Slender man and the fnaf one especially.

[@CypressCircuit]

This is absolutely wonderfully made, the little tidbits of Marble Hornets influence in this is making me all giddy inside, even if this is not the real deal, it's still a love letter to the mythos!

[@thehorrornoobs5481]

Slender man is the most iconic horror character in internet history the fact that we haven’t had an official game speaks volumes, having him as a killer in DBD would rebirth him into peoples conscious.

[@freddyandfoxy7526]

Slenderman just comes out of nowhere in the entity. And my guess the entity is just confused on how he got here. And probably happy because of a new entity to take care. Also i love the concept of this.

[@likeia7967]

I still don't know why BHVR didn't hire this man his concepts are amazing. What a shame

[@abidoesnerdstuff]

Phenomenal work, as always!! I would love to see this in the game someday!!!

[@wante1812]

Slenderman is my dream DBD license, hope one day to see it in the game. Amazing concept, changing the primary objective is such an interesting twist but I like how it plays into the lore and mythos of the character, makes it very obvious the amount of research and effort your group put into this

[@tomcroft1156]

Man, what a convincing and great work!

[@yeenbaby2891]

Ok imagine this, the survivours feared of his story so much even the killers fearing of him or not are also forced to play against him

[@islaydragons1563]

I’m so happy with this spotlight. This really would be a great addition to the game.

[@pinkAngelicAngel]

This is just awesome!! 😭👏 I'd love this to be in the game!

[@GaminLuna]

Saw a bunch of Marble Hornets references in this. The graffiti saying "Ur gonna die Tim", proxies, pills for slender sickness, Alex being referenced directly in a quote.) As such I think going with his MH name of "The Operator" fits the DBD naming scheme a lot better. This video was sick btw!

[@urielspartan]

From all the masterpiece that've been done here, this' the one i liked most
