Killer isn't fun anymore

Lets start with the maps, they are abysmal. It is inexcusable how bad these maps are. Most of them now can be won as survivor by just holding W. You can waste so much time just holding W and dropping a safe pallet if the killer gets close. This isn't fun for survivor or killer as it negates the skill from either side. Not to mention that you don't have any logic to stop breakable walls being near pallets it seems and there are more pallets than ever. So every few meters you have to stop a chase to break a pallet or break a wall which just ruins the flow of the game and makes chases tedious. Plus there seems to be a push towards more god pallets.....why?

Sounds are the worst they've ever been and I've been playing since mid 2018. Everything sounds muffled and its so difficult to track survivors now between the muffled sounds and the fact that all the colours kind of blur into one, its especially problematic on the new autohaven maps which are far too dark. I am colourblind so perhaps that plays a part but at this point I'm finding myself needed to take shadowborn or stridor, basically using perk slots to make up for how bad the game has become.

I'm not going to complain about gen speeds or map sizes that has been done and has always been a thing. That above though seems to be things which have become a much bigger problem this year than the past 2 years, it takes the fun out of the only thing that made the game fun - the chases.
