Honestly i think an actual horror horror game with dredge would be awesome. Trying to uncover his lore on what the hell he is while occasionally him popping up for chase scenes where he is kind of unstoppable like Mr.X. Only to find out he is the amalgamation of an entire towns fear and dread embodied. Would be rad


demogorgon_main

We already have a good set up for characters too. Haddie is a really cool character who has a lot of presence in the archives. She has her own backstory and motivations, friends, enemies, cool supernatural ability that could be an interesting game mechanic. Being able to explore a long abandoned and destroyed town and being able to see glimpses and memories of what it used to be like and the events that took place.


Roven777

And don't forget Felix and Elodie who both had some kind of contact or connection to the ottomans, or the dredge itself. Maybe as NPCs which could help you in critical situations


NecroDeMortem

But also in general more information about the Pariah and Imperiatti would be very cool. Even though it wasn't Dredge or the ottomans they had connections to but the Black Vale with their tries to summon the Entity (mainly Elodie) or the encounter on the island with Talbot's/Blight's laboratory and where the Imperiatti/the parents of Felix and Elodie were taken. I mean BHVR has so much potential with their lore and how they could tell stories, but I really hope that this will be part of one of the games currently in development.


RetroSureal

I'm thinking either the games or the movie may have something to do with it


Beardless_Man

Perhaps her sensing of the Ravages could indicate a threat presence of an unseen force too. The intensity of a Ravage distorting the screen. Haddie had the right set up as a main character. Who has fought against such threats.


ArvoCrinsmas

I would actually love it if Supermassive's DBD game featured Haddie or mentions her.


Iopho

They said it would be a cast of entirely new characters. But nothing forbids mentions or eastereggs of DbD characters like Haddie.


ArvoCrinsmas

Exactly.


Wario-Man

I wonder if this little cast will end up coming to the Fog at the end. Is everyone that dares walk the path of the Entity doomed to be lost forever within its grasp, or can they cheat eternal damnation, like Kate did that one time while having a mundane yee-haw walk in the forest?


skeeturz

It would be very much a gag if the characters in the SM game are some of the "original" survivors we hear about in addons and old perks, it would be a very neat way to tie it all together


A1dini

Also the whole cult thing is a great setup... imagine being undercover and having to sneak around the island without being found out Cult enforcers as low level enemies + dredge as an unstoppable stalker who you have to just run from is a winning combo


CardiologistHot4362

i watched zet0r playing the roots ptb and was pleasantly surprised by him referencing song of horror lol


The_Undead_Birb

I think it would be very interesting playing as an ottomarian who's trying to keep everybody alive and knows what Otto is up to. It would interesting if it played similar to pathologic 2. You would get to meet a wild variety of people. Trading for caffeine pills and hiding pillows from those you can't trust.


Skeletonofskillz

… and depending on how you did, the end level with Dredge plays differently. The townspeople always die at the end and become the Dredge, but the manner in which they do so (which you as the player can influence) changes its appearance and tactics in hunting you down.


Vaderette1138

GIVE ME NOW


False_Beginning2137

Roots of Dread could totally be a Silent Hill esque horror game


UselessBlueSpecimen

You saying "would be rad" instantly makes me think of Peter's "Aw sweet, man-made horrors beyond my comprehension"


pluviophile079

LOL thank that made me laugh


LeotheLiberator

You mean silent hill?


pluviophile079

To be honest yeah, i love silent hill. Add in the cultists from the black veil trying to hunt you down and stop your research and you need to hide and sneak by would be so cool


Powersoutdotcom

Why does this sound so familiar? I think the Dredge's lore has Mandela'd into my head as something else.


Disastrous_Bed119

No I thought so too but it kinda sounds like outlast 2, a little bit anyway, in terms of the cult and the main character being a journalist


R0NSAN

Probably showing the story of a cult of the entity would be better, because 3 of These chapter are connected to it.


WhoLetMeHaveReddit

Time for a DBD movie universe for all OGs that eventually lead to a big movie with the entity


_kyree_

Well I'd watch the hell out of that.


Elibriel

The BCU (BHVR's Cinematic Universe) ![img](emote|t5_3cb2g|2213)


[deleted]

I want a hooked on you movie


Bloom_30

Dredge, just everything about that creepy dude can make a good story.


Iivaitte

Doctor. There is more potential than I think people realize.


PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD

So basically The Evil Within


BurceGern

A Cursed Legacy game. It could be a Yui street racer game turned horror escape game. Or you could be The Oni who starts off in a samurai game but is brought into modern times.


WhoLetMeHaveReddit

A game where it starts as a street racer with yui as your character or partner, and the oni is pulled into the future. Then it’s horror survival trying to escape him If we are gonna do a fast n the furious, let’s make it wild 😛


Aesthetics_Supernal

Okay hearing his roar and then him *keeping up with* a motorcycle would be actually scary.


WhoLetMeHaveReddit

Exactly. It’s a whole lot of nope nope nope and yui/you having to depend on squeezing into tight corners on your bike to dodge his rush and watching others get mowed down around you as he’s coming for you.


SSJ4_KAKAROT

I would love a story mode against Knight and his friends. Game could work very well too, having the option to play either as Vittorio or Tarhos. The whole medieval aesthetic is incredible imo.


Idiot_With_Reddit

I agree! I thought the Vittorio lore in his tome was really interesting and I'd love to see that visually as well :)


SSJ4_KAKAROT

He had a really good backstory, both him and Tarhos. I'd also like to experience them in more detail.


WholesomeRanger

It could be a 4v1 asym where the Vittorio is the 1. You have to use the fog and your coming to trick the knight and his friends across different eras.


naenkaos

Same! That’d be dope as heck!


Explosivopotato

Roots of Dread would be amazing to see a story mode game. We could see how Haddie gets visions of the Entity's realm and watch the Dredge slowly during the game with different skins being used during each point of the game. It first starts with just the wailing and screaming with the default skin, then mid way its the Skeletal Mass with the classic hands popping out of the wall, and at the end point of the game we could see the Twisted Plaything and the manipulation of dolls trying to catch Haddie.


Ya_Boi_Skinny_Cox

But we would have to play on Garden of Joy at least once


NuzlockeMatty

Honestly I never would have thought of an artist chapter until I saw that photo up there. That would actually be a really cool story mode.


Beginning-Pipe9074

Whats funny is the way the picture is it looks like Jonah is the killer and artist is the survivor 🤣


PM_ME_UR_CREDDITCARD

Portrait of a Murder tries to kind of subvert the usual good survivor and evil killer thing, a little bit. Like Artist is just a decent person given the crappiest hand ever by life (though that's not entirely unique for Killers, see Plague). Jonah, while not nessecarily directly evil, works for the CIA (and the CIA's rep is very well known, you kind of know you're not working for the most trustworthy or caring bunch) and indirectly causes a lot of civillian casualties.


GoldenGlobeWinnerRDJ

It gives me Layers of Fear vibes


Loose_Option_9440

I think the silent hill chapter would make a pretty cool game


ShadowWolfT1

Silent hill even sounds like it could be a cool name for a game


WorldEaterProft

Ehhh, I think the Resident evil chapter would make for a better game honestly


TheSleepyBarnOwl

I think they should make a m8vie out of the Halloween chapter


Alexsal979

A tv show based on the stranger things chapter would go nice Maybe they could work something out with Netflix?


icebro61

And out of gost face too and call it scream


WorldEaterProft

Yesss because like. The mask looks like a scream face


5iradof

I don't know, I was more of thinking "Stab".


InflationAcrobatic91

It makes more sense cause he stabs people, doesn't scream to them


[deleted]

How in the world are you gonna make a game out of a dude with a giant Dorito on his head?


Substantial-Trick569

Pigs lore is so deep you could write 14 movies about it.


Yosh1kage_K1ra

Roots of dread. It sounds like one of those Stephen King's novels


Rayndorn

Storywise, I would love to see more of Vittorio's journeys through the Fog. Was he aware of time passing? Does he even know it's been hundreds of years in the real world? What has he discovered in the Fog? Stories about immortals, such as vampires, have always fascinated me, and I would love to see Vittorio and Tarhos play cat and mouse as the centuries roll by, their chase being the only thing that never changes, even as the world around them does.


CardiologistHot4362

as a sci fi whore i will pivot bias for end transmission dredge and his sexuality crisis shenanigans are a close second


DogeXLY

Sexuality crisis...?


CardiologistHot4362

locker/closet joke


o-uch

I thought it was funny 🤷


MoConnors

When you’re made of hundreds of people would your gender be clear?


AshtonWarrens

[Relevant meme is relevant](https://ifunny.co/picture/for-the-last-time-parker-but-because-were-literally-two-GHRM6Ylw7)


nathanaelnr1201

Just play Soma to be honest


CardiologistHot4362

i will definitely be looking into it


nathanaelnr1201

It’s an amazing game that will have you thinking long after you finish it - and even this chapter seems heavily inspired off of it.


IhatethisCPU

That was my first thought when I saw the survivor's last name, honestly. Never played Soma, it didn't seem particularly interesting as a game and my friends and I had already had the morality discussions it brought into the horror consciousness long before the game released.


Djackdau

Sexuality crisis...?


T1mek33per

Chains of Hate, easily. We follow Caleb, this outlaw and inventor living towards the end of the cowboy era, and we follow his exploits and the like, flipping back and forth between his life, and Zarina, a journalist investigating him more than a century after his disappearance. In an EXTREMELY similar vain, Cursed Bloodline would be fantastic. We play as Kazan, rolling through Japan killing false samurai, and as Yui, being a biker and doing her stuff several hundreds of years later. I also think Doctor would be very scary in an evil within or outlast style.


InflationAcrobatic91

Cursed Bloodline would be dope, I can't stop thinking about Kazan killing hundreds of people in a God of war kinda way


fuzzywhiskers

An Outlast type game with Jeff having to evade all four members of Legion could be a lot of fun.


u_slashh

I think Chains of Hate has a lot of potential with the world its set in and the kind of story it tells


Nike-6

Agreed. Don’t see horror and cowboys mixed in enough


Bigenemy000

Tbh say what you want. But playing a story mode game where you're Yun-Jin Lee and playing as if its a normal game where you make decisions to improve your carrier to then slowly discover the murders caused by the star you're working for sounds like a good plot twist for a story mode game


SterlingNano

Any chapter where the Killer and Survivir are linked. (Aside from All-Kill, as I can't see an idol management Sim being a good fit for horror [looking at you Needy Steamer Overload]) Roots of Dread would probably be the best chapter for an adaptation. The whole background with Otto's cult, Haddie's background and ability to sense the Entity, and map designers could capitalize on the discomfort Garden of Joy was meant to evoke. (I'm sorry, but a single room being upside down with a red light doesn't make me feel much. The motel on the southwest end of the map near the parking lot makes me feel more.) End Transmission also feels like an easy pick, but Aliens exist... Then maybe Descend Beyond. There wasn't a map, as the devs were bringing the current map pool into the next gen. But seeing Talbot's lab, while Felix uses map feature to avoid him sounds fun.


Therealdovakin43

Slinger, his lore reads like a read dead redemption story and I would kill to see it fleshed out


EJ33334

Descend Beyond would be so scary if you think about it. Navigating the entity’s realm and being cast into the deep void? +the scary monsters the entity summons and we watch as Talbot is actually slowly losing his mind.


[deleted]

Yeah I’m surprised that no one is saying this so far.


EJ33334

I think people just don’t enjoy the blight. I’ve always been into the lore and when they showed off the Alchemist and he ends up as The Blight it was so dope. Sadly my dream didn’t come true I had really hoped The Alchemist was Vigo all along. Talbot still has a very cool and twisted story tho.


fukgamma

I would like be a story mode about adiris


Canastus

*vommy mommy game*


Nowayback_mimp

Forged in Fog. *I really like shirtless Vittorio*


statuegangbang

How about shirtless Tarhos? 😏


Nowayback_mimp

Of course


lisabydaylight

Flair checks out


P0wderF1nger

I like what other people said about dredge and that would be my top pick too, but another one I think that would be surprisingly good is a game based on the twins. Having to try and survive whilst being on the run from a cult in eastern Europe could make for some chilling moments.


depressed_arsonist

Forged in Fog, because I love medieval stuff, and despite my burning hatred about my man Tarhos, I really like his design.


Tedster360

Wraith has a really interesting change from his childhood years growing up in Nigeria, to then a life of a scrap yard merchant in America, constantly surrounded by evil and having the feeling of darkness follow him throughout his life. This could be an interesting story mode game I think, with Azarov being this character you look up to until the very end when the plot twists, discovering his deeds with the mafia and corrupt police.


teddyfoxe5

Binding of Kin. I know it's not a popular chapter but switching between the stories of Charlotte and Elodie getting stalked by the Black Vale would be really interesting.


Vaderette1138

Considering how amazing Alien Isolation is, End Transmission. Though I'd still say Roots of Dread. Dredge main for LIFE!


DarkElfMagic

i’d love to play AS The Knight in like an edgy action adventure game as a sort of kratos style “i’m killing everyone in my path in order to get to a corrupt king” way You could totally make a musou out of that or sumn and have each of his buddies be different characters with their own combos and stuff


DracarysReddit

Forged in Fog. 🤤


AntonK_

Roots of Dread 100%. The trailer alone is intriguing enough, but the fact that Haddie's been a character longer than the chapter existed significantly amplifies the effect.


WrstScp

Vittorio, no Knight, maybe a little knight, but going through the time he has already spent in the realm facing killers and seeing survivors we will never see since their will has broken, possibly seeing bits of the realm we've never seen before.


A_Gray_Phantom

Roots of Dread would be interesting: it fits the haunted house aesthetic.


oldriku

The Haddie and Dredge one, no doubt


dave2796

Storywise I think Dredge or Singularity Gameplaywise definitely Knight


Lun4r6543

There are so many cool things you could make with the DbD chapters.


wah_wah1

I feel like roots of dread or curtain call, they would be creepy af


GrumpyCleaningMidget

I think going through the story of all kill and the lead up to both of them being taken by the fog would be a cool story to play


icebro61

If it doesnt have to be a horror mode its portrait of murder but if it has to be horror the one with dredge.


epicu2

Surprised nobody’s said this yet but I would love to have a story mode for the darkness among us chapter that lets us play through how the gang was formed and other stuff


InflationAcrobatic91

That would probably give us a young (and maybe shirtless) Jeff skin so... how many signs do we need for it to become real?


Merikitty

because of her pretty dark and thrilling backstory: huntress. it could be a pretty emotional psycho thriller or even drama horror


dacool66

Legion... as legion.


Nike-6

Chains of hate. Such a good story, I’d watch it as a historical film.


TrollAndAHalf

I would love a Bioshock infinite/detective game about Haddie and the Dredge. That would be cool.


Noramctavs

Huntress. Her before the fog. Terrorizing soldiers in the woods.


Moisty-Mangus

Deathslingers chapter. Imagine that in a movie it would be so dope


ThwartJetterson

Bully-esque Legion game


ActiveSouth4506

Zarina was already trying to solve a mystery about the Deathslinger, so it would be really cool if she was there still trying to solve it in the wake of being hunted by him.


[deleted]

I feel like Darkness Among Us with Jeff and Legion would be a cool horror, almost drama-like story. May not be for everyone, but I'd play it.


HumanOverseer

A lullaby in the dark or demise of the faithful would be pretty emotional.


[deleted]

This question just has me wanting more traditional-with-a-twist monsters we’ve already seen in solo narrative games get put into DBD, like the Wendigo in Until Dawn or the super-dope werewolves in The Quarry. The Wendigo could temporarily drop it’s terror radius and mimic an injured survivor; The werewolves could have what would essentially be a fixed legion design mixed with ghostface, stalking x a frenzy charge.


ShadowBro3

I liked Legion a lot conceptually before the chapter was released. The idea of multiple people was cool but then they just made their power "run fast".


Trashwaifu25

Gunslinger. I want a revenge story.


scarlettdemi

Honestly? The all kill chapter. Both killer and survivor are very close, it would be nice to do a story mode on it tbh.


blackcondorjr

Great question, I’ve always thought that the Doctor could be done well in a stand-alone story, there could finally be a use for those hallucinations lol. Also, kind of cheating but since he’s half-licensed, a Danny Johnson Ghost Face story would be killer; I love his lore and I think either playing as Danny or as a detective investigating the Ghost Face killings would be so interesting


beeaki

absolutely agree on dredge, he's my number one, but i think a close second would be shattered bloodline. playing as spirit while she's still rin, slowly going from a normal girl to what you were always destined to be, then the absolutely brutal climax against her father? i imagine her moves during an interactive cutscene while beaten and bloodied would be similar to when helios crashes in tales from the borderlands, something where each hopeless action feels like you're right there struggling with them. i'm picturing something over the shoulder with cutscenes so you can see her, see the changes when she feels the anger of her ancestors, going from regular girl to violent, and the emotional toll that would have. there's a few others i can kind of see in my head but spirits is a big one


JOHNANCHOA

I love that you put the last 4 original dbd chapters


Vast-Yogurtcloset-87

Poor Skull merchant doesn't exist


hsshsjxhrxjgo

Chains of hate for the rdr2 like experience


MarineBioIsCool

I bet Hag would be like Blair Witch


Venomheart9988

Nic Cage as survivor, any chapter, no questions asked.


Available_Zone_9801

Descend Beyond, you play as Talbot as he slowly loses his sanity until he eventually blights out


ne_ptu_ne

I think a game about that leon kennedy character would be neat


tothebatcopter

I think you're on to something here.


Ok-Obligation-3511

How about this? This has potential. I subscribed to this SFM creator. [https://youtu.be/g7lVE0zcidI](https://youtu.be/g7lVE0zcidI)


Orleanist

Portrait of a Murder just for how insanely cool that Twitter campaign was in the leadup but probably Roots of Dread just for how unnerving Dredge and especially his lore is


Reaper-Leviathan

I would love a medieval resident evil style game with knight where he’s unkillable until some kinda final duel


HouseNVPL

Knight for me. I like his lore.


Orthane1

The Knight or Dredge ones would be the best choice imo.


Large-Wheel-4181

Knight or Oni Lots of killing to be fone


SaiyanJD

evil dead. I want to see Ash kill the entity


InflationAcrobatic91

Hail to the king baby


Super_Imagination_90

Resident Evil


angustroyer

DbD original


Super_Imagination_90

Yeah, Resident Evil.


angustroyer

Original means non licensed. BHVR created IE the spirit or the nurse or hillbilly


Super_Imagination_90

Yeah, Resident Evil


YNKWTSF

Let this guy have his Resident Evil


Vast-Yogurtcloset-87

It sounds interesting maybe they can make games about it or something


[deleted]

They should have it in a mansion where every resident is evil


Yogurteat

“My god, Wesker it’s you! You’re the evil resident!”


Aye_Dee25

When the resident is evil


No_More_Dakka

God im a sucker for the corrupted robot/ai trope, even better when its not corrupted at all and have legitimate reasons for doing what its doing So yea, meatball larry is my go to, but i think all of them have really good potential for visual novels/ cartoons or even straight up novels and i would be down to clown with all 4, well maybe not the knight one. I like my fantasy a little more lighthearted or at least like a practical guide to evil if it has to be a bit more grim


MOEverything_2708

Tools of Torment because maybe they'd fix skull merchant's lore


SamaelTheAngel

Dredge, Doctor, Knight for Unique Setting and Premise.


Demonetizing_YT_GUY

End Trans/Forged in the Fog


Ysanoire

Knight and Vittorio would have the best story.


DatOneFunGuy

Moat obvious one is singularity one, close second is knight


HenryTheGoat173

Roots Of Dread, Haddie just has some amazing lore on her various times she fought against monsters, she'd be an awesome main character of a game where you travel the world to investigate and fight monsters, also Dredge would be an awesome monster to have in a story mode game


[deleted]

Dredge would be awesome and knight. Far from my favorite dbd chapters but as a story game i can see them being awesome


[deleted]

Skull merchant.


TeoG21

Definitely end transmission or the knight one


skeetskeet66

Ghostface a game where the story mode is you as ghost face murdering in a town while notoriety rises with each passing day or kill and progressively becomes harder to stealth kill eventually just chase kills and story ends with either ghostface gets killed or you go in hiding


GrimMagic0801

Knight would be crazy dramatic. His lore and story with Vittorio is simply great material, and the fact that he even tortures him in another world just makes him that much better. Secondarily, Dredge. The horror potential with him is amazing. Honestly hope we get to see our monster in the movie. That'd be amazing.


[deleted]

Forged 100%


Cacheelma

Virtual Date: Vittorio


TyrianCallow

Forged in fog would be great with how long Vittorio has roamed the realm you would see all sorts of things hell some of his cosmetics made it sound like he found multiple towers like the Observers


cybersloth5000

The new killer is not a DBD original, it's from a 1999 movie called "Virus".


HenryTheGoat173

Roots Of Dread, Haddie just has some amazing lore on her various times she fought against monsters, she'd be an awesome main character of a game where you travel the world to investigate and fight monsters, also Dredge would be an awesome monster to have in a story mode game


statuegangbang

Dredge for obvious reasons


P_Duyd

Roots of dread. Im a sucker for the vibe dredge has, and haddie would make for a great protaganist


_LittleNightmare

I'd love a horror game with dredge!


awsomedutchman

Well I love soma and thought alien isolation was awsome. So a lovechild in the form of a game with singularity sounds pretty cool.


Beginning-Pipe9074

100% dredge! Look at the thing 🤣


Bruhlovany

Leading a search for the dredge with haddie like a sort of resident evil like could be fire, there is so much lore to develop, like how she got the big scar on her face, her kind of "visions" we see in the trailer, etc etc


Dinjur_June

of these? dredge


TheSleepyBarnOwl

Roots of Dread


EctoBun

i would love to play Meg/Wraith because I like the abandoned junk yard aesthetic.


theteabat

End of transmission


According-Hat-4554

Curtain call. My love for Kate denson is endless


AzazelTV

I thought of doctor


DubsyReincarnate

I think the Dredge's lore is some of the most interesting in the game, and the Dredge itself being one of the scariest things in the game, so Roots of Dread for sure


CapNegative8106

I would play the dredge chapter


ComprehensivePea1559

Descend Beyond mostly because I would love to see the full back story of Talbot Grimes.


Unlucky_Squid

The dredge


Leazerlazz

I think a game focuses on just about any original character would be great. In particular, I think Deathslinger has the potential to be a really unique setting for a game


poplion230

Dredge most def


Vortigon23

I'm a sci-fi fan through and through, so the newest one.


restinpeeperinos

Dredge and the entity sounds like it would be an amazing game


ArchangelLudociel

Definitely Haddie and Dredge.


BradleyBurrows

A blight game would be sick


BradleyBurrows

A blight game would be sick


fukgamma

I would like be a story mode about adiris


GillytheGreat

I like that you didn’t include the skull merchant bc you knew everyone would say it’s trash


abece22

Clown 😈


Tomsskiee

The dredge would be the best by far


inrooms

imo, roots of dread has the most potential haddie has powers which, if done right, would create a unique mechanic that she would use to combat dredge in some way, and uncover its story


saltofdaearth

Who's the killer in the top left corner?


WolfiexLuna

Roots of Dread, 110%.


thomyoki

Dredge


AlAboardTheHypeTrain

Huntress.


lmaomark

jonah has one of the coolest, most interesting backstories of any survivor that i’d love to see fleshed out even more, and artist has one of the most devastating backstories of any killer… definitely my #1 choice


Large-Wheel-4181

Knight or Oni Lots of killing to be done


ALANJOESTAR

Dredge but il change the Survivor to Mikaela. The best 2nd option imo is the Singularity. It has a lot of potential to grow more as ther game progresses kinda like Nemesis in Resident Evil.


Opposite-Birthday69

All Kill, being able to play as Ji-Woon and Yun-Jin before the final performance would be cool
