Hide and seek, the simulator.

DbD is a VERY well crafted (original) idea, properly balanced, cheap, and above all: fun. Unique too; you've never played an online game like this before. It's got too that soft "grindy" spot where you'll keep farming new perks and testing new builds for a good handful of months. Another plus: games are always hit'n'run; often 15 minutes, 20 minutes tops.

Ho-we-ver. DbD's Achile's heel is the so called... "SWF", or Survive With Friends. That's when the "hiders" are a tight party of friends. No big deal, you say? Wrong. Imagine for a second playing hide and seek where the "hiders" have walkie-talkies: it becomes impossible to find them, it *breaks* the game, it destroys its very core premise of hide and seek... but keeps the survivor playerbase happy & paying.

There, I got that outta my chest.
