Generators Are Fine, But Need To Be More Fun

As the title suggests, I am one of the people that sincerely believe that generator times are 100% fine and don't need to be changed in any way. A lot of you killers say "INCREASE GEN TIMES!" But I think that would be a terrible idea. I just think generators need to be more:

-worth the risk

-c suspenseful

- fun


Now for the questions and answers:

Why do they need to be more risky? Killers are jokes now, we can literally repair in their face while their chasing someone else and they don't do much about it.

How do we fix this? In order to get off a generator you have to hold the "secondary action" key or button and during this time you will get no skill checks and will still be able to get hit or pulled off of it. It won't be too long, just something for generators to be more risky.


Why do they need to be more suspenseful? This game used to be horror, and even so much as TOUCHING a generator would freak me out! But I liked it! Though, now, it's nothing. NO fear or emotion.

How do we fix this? I honestly don't have an answer, so if you would like to leave a great suggestion that you might have had in mind that would be A BIG help!


Why do they need to be more fun? Doing gens are very boring, and making the gen go by slower will not be a good idea.

How do we fix this? Ever played Friday The 13th The Game and tried to repair anything? yeah, those type of skill checks are so fun! The ones where each skill check gives you a random key or button to press.
