Red stain

I don't think people realize how important the stain is for survivors. Yesterday,i saw a post saying devs should remove the tr/stain. Alot of people on that post said they'd remove the stain and keep the tr. Have you ever tried looping a gf in stealth? Around a rock,or any other tile with LoS blockers? You just guess which side the killer will come from cause if you try to react to it,you are gonna get ######### cause no one has that fast of human reactions. What's ur opinion on the stain? One thing before i end my rant: I just don't understand why it goes through walls on low settings on autohaven/macmillan/asylum. It does remove mindgame potential at certain maps on certain walls

    I like the red stain, especially because it opens up a whole line of mindgaming that wouldn't be possible without it. Survivors have an expectation that the red stain comes before the killer, so often they're looking out for that instead of always looking for the killer themself. Without the stain as a mechanic whatsoever, survivors might be more cautious around loops and moonwalking would not be as effective (or straight up have no point at all).
