How Dead By Daylight's Monetization is Unfair for New Players
18,237Dead By Daylight features gameplay elements that are locked behind a paywall and provide a competitive advantage over someone that doesn't pay - UNDENIABLE FACT
Maths in this video:
It takes 35 Hours aprox for someone to earn a character for 9K Iridescent Shards.
It takes 80 Hours aprox for someone to earn a Very Rare cosmetic.
It takes 455 Hours with a perfect shrine to unlock all licensed perks at tier 1
It takes 350 Hours total to unlock all unlicensed Killers in DBD.
It takes 385 Hours total to unlock all unlicensed Survivors in DBD.
It takes 735 Hours total to unlock all unlicensed characters in DBD.
After all those hours, you will still be missing 11 licensed Killers and 12 licensed survivors.
It takes 2800 Hours total for a cost of 720K Iridescent shards to have all licensed perks at Tier 3 with a perfect shrine that has all perks at all times.
As of the date of release of this video, it is impossible to unlock: Deadlock, Eruption, Call of Brine and Reassurance. Perks that are widely regarded as being overpowered. There are more perks that have never appeared in the shrine, yet they are skipped because they are not regarded as very strong.
