"Game Sense" In Dead By Daylight

[@fluffybananas1426]

Very interesting! Game Sense is an important part to any game, but it's hard to describe how you acquire that kind of knowledge.

[@NelsonMcCulloch]

Excellent video. You did great explaining what really is a very vague and intangible subject. It really is something you can only learn through practice, and with quick thinking. I’d even say each player has their own form of game sense unique to them. Like for instance, I’ve gotten pretty good at not relying on audio to play. Does it sometimes bite me in the ass? Yeah, but I definitely have gotten good at tracking people in game.

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

thank you nelson 😄I appreciate you!

[@RikuBielfelt]

I agree however I'm a goofy goober so sometimes I knowingly forgo my game sense 😅 I love to love and be friendly above all else, that's how I have fun personally, even as killer I don't kill lol the entity loves and hates me I guess xD

[@cake94309]

I agree, game sense is a big part of the game. I look at it like a game of chess, you want to be one step ahead of your opponent. I'm a survivor main, mostly in solo que. The biggest game sense you can have for your team is the HUD. So many say it doesn't do that much but if you understand the HUD it's extremely helpful. You will know when to go for saves, who's in chase, who is on a gen in the area while you're in chase, if you need to be the one to get off a gen for a pick up/unhook, and so much more. I see so many not paying attention to the HUD and it drives me nuts lol

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

The hud tells us so much information! You just gotta know how to interpret it and use it to your advantage, especially in solo queue

[@matthewwray301]

I love this! I’m always looking to try new things I’ve picked up from KZbin and ‘game sense’ should really go without saying. Unfortunately, once I’m in and I’ve been looped plus 1-2 gens have popped, the ‘red mist’ comes down and I’m angry and slip into autopilot ; immediately pick up a downed a survivor and get blinded by the flasher, then get looped some more, another 1-2 gens pop. I get pulled away into a chase by 3 survivors while the final 1 pops the final gen, by then I’ve had enough I open the gates myself and just shoo them out. So much for thinking me strategic, as soon as I’m in, I’m all bluster and no brain 🤯

[@MightyJabroni]

You'll get that out of your system eventually. By now, I almost expect the survivors to have me down down to 2 gens, by the time I have anything between 1 and 4 hooks. If they simply split on and prioritize gens (or just get a scattered spawn), that is pretty much a given, regardless of how good or weak they are in chase. What is important, is that the remaining gens are relatively clustered. Prioritize action around them. The turf will get smaller, thereby more managable and pallets will be exhausted, where you need them to be gone.That is why I always make an executive decision early in the trial to not defend gens, that I simply don't care about (because they are too far out and would force me to stretch my presence thin across the board). Never forget, you play the board every bit as much, as you play the team. Constantly thinking about that, is where you actually develop much game sense. If you don't play a killer, that is very M2 heavy, Surge can be a great perk to teach you that, as you go (because it rewards you for being, where you need to be .... and it also is a great time saver). Same goes for tinkerer. Agitation is also great to pull downed survivors towards or into your effective playing field.

[@OldManShane]

Nice work as always, Sage. It's not easy trying to explain something as ephemeral as game sense.

[@vaazed0]

had to comment just to appreciate that angelic intro

@ ferret !!

[@LucyRaccoon]

I can't count how often I was called cheating just cause I made a educated logical guess where a Survivor is from the Informations I gathered.

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

yep I've been accused of stream sniping when I just noticed crows flying up or movement in my peripheral vision

[@d_shadow.]

Tldr; game theory, but with a hint of nerdiness Love your videos, by the way. Short, good videos, nice art [+rep for twins], and you have a very nice and soothing voice. Ironically, it sounds close to how Charlottes voice is/how I imagine her :D

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

That is a huge compliment thank you so much! I love Charlotte and it's really sweet that I remind you of her

[@pandabanaan9208]

4:00 it's always bills and megs who make these kinds of plays

[@benthompson4549]

I love the art you put on your videos

[@SeeNogDBDYT]

Really good art, I love how cute victor looks!

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

Thank you both! My twin makes the art for the channel

[@benthompson4549]

@ omg your a twin?!

[@SeeNogDBDYT]

@twinsmainsageDBD twins main twins? Now I seen everything!

[@vladspellbinder]

2:21 I take offense to that type chart. I'm a Speed Limiter Cannibal with a gift hatch charm on my hook that isn't a lie. I feel a bit insulted whenever I see another Cannibal player camping a hook or hard tunneling someone. Giving Bubba a bad name. 2:30 Honestly wish more people would pick up on this. I don't respect pallets until one gets dropped on me, because I get so, so, _so_ many free hits on people who think I'll respect that pallet they just ran though and they get one less loop around than they expected. Sometimes they STILL don't drop the thing! So many free downs and it isn't all that fun. Thanks for the video.

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

I DIDN'T MAKE THE CHART IM SORRY I JUST GOOGLED "TYPES OF KILLERS" i am a partial bubba main and I've p100ed him, he's my sweet baby boy

[@vladspellbinder]

@@twinsmainsageDBD I get that and I do understand why he's there. That doesn't mean I agree with it.

[@westcoast9158]

To add onto the 1st example: - Predrop indicative of either newer/scared player, or due to the gen progress being above 25%, predrop into Chemical Trap, which works well since that forces Victor at that tile in most cases, as slowdown from pallet break guarantees rotation to main building god pallets - Alternatively, if you're paying a lot of attention, you'll notice the Meg is carrying a toolbox, which although would explain the high progress on the gen, even if the first down occurred within 10 seconds, the gen should be at a higher progress, and since Chemical Trap operates off the player's **contribution** to the gen, Chemical Trap is likely **not** activated yet - Going for the predrop player still better since Meg still gets from injure speed boost + late SB distance meaning that - You could still argue going for her is better though, since Meg's heading for the theoretical 4th survivor, which could lead to Forced Hesitation value on downing the Meg near them, while interrupting the gen however, Sloppy Butcher has a pig icon, therefore correct play is to nerf pig

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

well written! thank you so much

[@realnamegone]

i dunno what to say here other than "this is a great analogy" which i've already said billions of times. nevertheless, this is a great analogy

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

even though it's been said before, it's still meaningful

[@SeeNogDBDYT]

I was gonna make a joke, but another game sense tip for Twins; involves understanding that aura perks like BBQ and Chili, or Friends til' the End, work a little better on Twins because these are perks that activate in moments where you are always going to be Charlotte, (cause Char momma does the hooking!) But aura perks like Gear Head, or Human Greed(my beloved,) are not so good on Twins because these perks may go off while I'm playing Victor and I would never know! I suppose I could adjust my playstyle to accommodate for these perks, but then it's less likely that I am playing Twins naturally when I do. This is a more subjective line of reasoning, I'm sure, but you can apply this thought process to any killer and even to survivors.

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

I never run aura perks on twins because I'm trying to use Victor so often that I rarely get proper value out of them, even BBq because I'm too busy switching to Victor to make note of whatever auras I'm seeing

[@HyrulianArcher]

I've been watching you for awhile. Can I just say I think you are one of the best DBD content creators out there. You are everything good about this community. Also I'm not putting you on some pedestal. You are only human after all but you make genuine and well thought out content. You don't perpetuate the us vs them mentality like so many like to do. You don't make salt videos. You make thoughtful pretty unbiased videos. DBD is a game I fell in love with. It is the only multiplayer game I play. I actually don't like competitive multiplayer games. By competitive I specifically you vs another actual human by the way. I watched Otz play it for a year before trying it in 2021. I have over 4,000 hours now and I still love it as much as I ever did. It's a game I love just playing, it's a game I love playing with my girlfriend, it's a game I love playing for her when she wants to watch me play killer while we talk and she crochets, hell it's part of the reason I met my girlfriend. It's a game I will always love playing and a game that will mean even more because it helped me meet my person after 34 years of looking. And you help make it a game with a wonderful community... as long as you stay off reddit and Twitter and keep it in game. 😂 I get way more nice messages than bad playing this game. So thank you for your content. People like you make this game even better than it already is. Also I really hope I can go against your Twins one day. I love playing her and want to go against yours.

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

This was so touching I shared it with my twin yesterday, thank you so much 💜 I also love this game and I love talking about WHY I love it and how awesome it is

[@GrimMelvin]

I can't believe I found another Twins main!

[@Offcialhardyman]

i found this video really intresting because i feel like my game sense is the only skill i got thats a 10/10

[@Sir_Noperope]

i did not (Deep Breath) had subbed to the Ko-Fi thats very cool also this is a really cool video, it explains it a lot but not everyone knows what Game Sense even means if they are never to gaming

[@Sp1tfire_5316]

An issue i sometimes have is that i will b thinking so far ahead that I'll miss a survivor crouching in a bush right in front of me. For example, a blight game i had b4 the borgo got changed to the greenish blue it is now i was thinking 'ok I'm kicking this gen, then imma head over to shack since that was where they put their boon last so ppl might b healing there, next I'm gonna check the closest gens on my way there and back if i dont find someone to chase in between that time...' meanwhile there was a bloody Bill crouched right next to the gen in a bush i didn't see bc i was to lost in my own plan 😂

[@b4ts4life]

ur video got reccomended to me, and im already in love with u as a creator:)) amazing video

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

thank you 💜I appreciate u :)

[@DestroyerBG1]

Well this was interesting to see and think about. Also I am by no means a twins main considering I play them sometimes but rarely. But I truthfully love them not for their slugging capability but the concept. I use them just as you explained in your guide. Trying to pressure survivors with two killers overall and I always have a blast doing it. My most recent build is using huntress lullaby with thrill ovetcharge and the perk for that kicks 3 gens at once. Overall very fun. At this point not a clue who my main is I manage well with all of them. I played legion for a quite a bit at some point but I got bored from him I guess. Well time for me to go hope you had a good day or night see ya on the next video😅

[@kapkeik4681]

the outro is so sad but comfy😢

[@kapkeik4681]

btw I would LOVE to see more twins footages. there’s so little amount of content about the twins! (and 90% of it - videos about their broken state in april ptb and “slug machine 3000 tears apart this poor survivors”)

[@sirtophat1860]

I dunno why but game sense just seems to come and go with me anyone else feel like they just have an "off-day"?

[@twinsmainsageDBD]

I've had off days! I've definitely predicted incorrectly to the point of completely losing survivors sometimes

[@sorsaemo]

Id say game sense consists of external knowledge you acquire whilst playing combined with just having good reflexes, good eye-hand coordination and good critical thinking skills. If you lack those you will suck.

[@TheRealMycanthrope]

That's when I sense that the game that just started is going to be awful /j (Edit:) actually, you know what, no /j, because sensing the trial is going to suck based on the first minute *is* in fact game sense; 100% pattern recognition and intuition (2nd edit:) Cue Sage uploading an 8 minute aesthetic af video about how matches that start badly can be made a positive experience by befriending the killer/survivors 😜
