Behavior Interactive is currently under fire after one of its community staff allegedly went rogue and gifted controversial streamer TheBurntPeanut every in-game item in Dead by Daylight live on stream. The developer already apologized once on the secondary Dead by Daylight social media account, but this latest mea culpa, in an attempt to take full accountability, was posted on the full-fat account.
TheBurntPeanut gained popularity over the last year for playing extraction shooters like Arc Raiders, but his style of commentary is seen as edgy by some and problematic by others.
