I think it's time to actually give up on this game.
If it's not tunneling and slugging, then it's bad net with killer sided ping, or the many rampant bugs.

They have prioritized skins over the game's playability for too many years.
It is no longer enjoyable, in fact the only joy you can find in the game is when you abuse the many bugs.
The release of the walking dead chapter introduced so many bugs, it gives the appearance that BHVR doesn't care about playability. Not to mention the newest map is so small that a killer can hold a 3 gen across the entire map. Especially after the 2 newest killers can scale the map in record time.

SWF bully squads will become the normal as each tunnel feels like the survivors are getting bullied with no chance of escape.

The game favors killers to the point where the average SWF with 1000 hours per player can still easily lose to a killer with 100 hours.
The power imbalance is part of the ideology of the game, asymmetry is the goal in a 1v4 style; however the game needs to also cater to the differences in skill levels among players.

In a comp setting, SWFs will win consistently but only after they have memorized every single map and have communicated their current positions and directions of movement.
This is something that the casual 1000 hour SWF cannot do.

Killers do not understand game state as they believe that in a 1v4 scenario they will always be playing catch up.
Hence the 5 gen tunnel or the multi slug.

The community has become even more toxic after the announcement of the anti-tunneling and anti-slugging patch.
I can play 10 games and out of the 10, at least 8 had some tunneling.

The game needs to handle tunneling and slugging.
I'm done.

"I bet the devs didn't expect me to jump up here! Oh..." Every time I think I am outsmarting the game, it shows me a new item to collect, a new cave to explore, a new mini boss to overcome, etc. This game is outstanding. The creative minds of FromSoftware have really outdone themselves.
Everyone has been complaining about fps drops, but I have been successfully playing this game with a GTX 970 on the lowest settings. I do get frame drops, but they won't stop me from truly enjoying this game.
Build variety is crazy in this game. Bleed builds, Dragon builds, Magic builds, Holy builds, Electric builds, Fire builds, Frost builds, Rot builds, Poison builds, Strength builds, Dexterity builds... I've conquered every souls game by FS and I can say with out a doubt that this game has the best build variety.

The only way to have fun in this game is to make your friends not have fun. 0/10 do not play with friends/family.

A ton of hidden bosses and weapons.
The loot.

Can get a bit repetitive.
Darkness comes a bit too soon.
Hard for beginners.
Friends steal your loot :C
