I finally got to play this asymmetrical multiplayer survival horror game when it became free on PS Plus in August, and whilst it's an interesting game, it's not really something that sunk its teeth into me. It can feel a little slow-paced at times especially if the slasher you're up against is not very good, but with the right elements in place, it can feel like being in a genuine slasher flick. I've enjoyed being the stalker a lot more than the survivors, and it's a riot to really get fully invested into the role and act like a movie villain, with slow-paced walking and expertly timed jumpscares.

Depending on the killer you play as, your experience and difficulty in providing a challenge for other players will vary. I recommend starting with the Trapper, as he's relatively straight-forward with only melee and his bear traps to really worry about. I've found the Nurse one of the most fun characters, however, with her blinking ability allowing you to create ample oppurtunities to make other players piss in their pants.

Playing as a survivor is similar in gameplay mechanics to typical first-person horror/stealth affairs, with hiding spots and a simplistic objective that models itself after Slender-style note finding, just with generators. It works quite well though, and like I said, your fun with it will vary depending on how will your killer is doing.

Dead by Daylight tries desperately to capture that retro slasher-style film feel, but whether it suceeds is largely a 50/50 chance. When it does though, there's a certain type of magic to it that's hard to replicate.

If the suspense doesn't kill you, something else will!
