Hooked on You: A Dead by Daylight Dating Sim (My experience)
Before I begin, if you didn’t know, Dead by Daylight is a asymmetrical horror game with one killer and four survivors. It has licensed killers as well as it’s own original killers. People on this game are especially horny for the killers. There’s a meme where people will comment on their tweets “add sex to the game.”
So the folks over at BeHavior decided to hire the people who made the KFC dating sim. They teamed up and announced “Hooked on You: A Dead by Daylight Dating Sim”
Naturally this intrigues me and I immediately watch the trailer. They introduce the 4 date-able characters, all of which are killers. I thought it was such a shame there were only four, because while they may not be able to get the licensed killers (Michael Myers, Freddy Krueger, Pyramid Head, Pinhead, etc) they absolutely had many reasonable picks from their original characters, and some I would have loved to see in the Sim. (I’m looking at you, Oni)
So the four main characters introduced to us in the trailer are Trapper, Spirit, Huntress, and Wraith. Immediately my shriveled monkey brain screams “DATE THE TRAPPER!” He’s tall and he’s beefy. Two things that make my brain go “AWOOOGA”.
I mean, look at him.
So that was my plan. Wait for the game to come out and try to fuck the Trapper.
(Mild spoilers ahead)
The game comes out, 8/3/22 (Yesterday at time of writing this), and I grab it immediately. When I finally get the time later that night to boot up the game I’m ready. I’m gonna fuck the Trapper. I get in and start my adventure. I meet the gang of killers and immediately Trapper calls me a nitwit. Ouch, but he doesn’t have to like me right away, that’s okay.
I talk more to the killers, they ask me questions about myself, asking me to answer honestly. The more Trapper talks, the worse he gets. He’s a rich douche and he’s entitled. Absolutely horrible. But Wraith? Wraith’s over here making my heart do little flip-flops. Do I actually want Wraith?
Look at how cute he is!
But no. I double down. I want the Trapper. I’ve made a commitment in my heart, and I’m gonna see it through to the end, dammit!
I’ll skip the details of everything that happens, but Trapper does finally start to warm up to me. My character passes out and I wake up on the beach, him gently pouring water into my mouth to help me drink and possibly wake me up.
I’m getting somewhere, and maybe seeing the real him.
Later that night he gives me advice to help me sleep better, considering I’m on a mysterious beach island resort with four (kind of five, as someone, whom I won’t spoil, gets introduced) killers.
He says:
Honestly brilliant advice. Just knock someone out cold, ease the stress, go to sleep. I laughed really hard and I loved that piece of dialogue. I was like “absolutely that makes perfect sense!” Though part of me longed for him to wrap me in a bearskin blanket, he gave me a bear’s claw.. to help me sleep?
The next day was a lot. I learned a lot about him, and he put me to the test. There isn’t much to say that doesn’t majorly ruin the story, but I did make a few bad choices, damaging my relationship with him. Could I save it?
On the third day, I’m told it was the final day, I’m given the option to let someone take me on a real date. Obviously I chose Trapper. I’ve been working so hard to get his attention and make him love me. Plus, just look at him. I wanna touch his body at the very least.
Eventually he puts me through a test. And I pass. Or so I think. Trapper tells me he has a “huge surprise” for me when he gets back. I wait for him and...
oh... OH. That IS a huge surprise. And I’m thrilled. I just know that dick is insane. And I’m getting my wish. To fuck the Trapper.
And I do.
Now I can’t say for certain, because I didn’t actually experience it, but he asks me
I say yes it was amazing.
We then are interrupted by narrative tools, Dwight and Claudette. They take us back to the beach for the finale.
We walk back to the Beach and finally Trapper beings to speak to me.
Well, at least it wasn’t just heavily implied, it was confirmed. He said it himself. We boned. But the rest of the dialogue obviously has me worried. He says he’s just not into me, which makes me give a soft little “awh..” under my breath. I know what’s to come but I’m in denial. Maybe the sex was good enough. Maybe he wasn’t that into me but he is now.
But
I am in agony. Not only am I touch starved, and bad at dating in real life, now I must be “friendzoned” in a fictional universe as well. But I got what I wanted didn’t I? I did make my goal to “fuck the Trapper.” And I did just that. Yet, I yearned for his love.
He proceeds to throw me into [redacted] to live for eternity with [redacted] and asks me to “please be cool if (he) brings any other dates over”.
10/10 would recommend!
(It’s worth adding, yes, you can properly romance him, and yes I did go back. If you do this, save before telling him you love him, so you can see what happens if you say you don’t love him. It’s hilarious, and petty revenge for “friendzoning” me)
