Please reduce grinding already

There are way too many perks and the bloodweb is a dumb idea. Pointless add-ons and offerings and useless perks I don't need, 3 versions of every perk, so many useless perks, etc. And forget about prestiging any character.

Survivor is ok since I just unlock the teachables and then I can just grind a few levels to get the new perks on one survivor, so it's basically the same amount of grinding for each new survivor. But you have to start from scratch on each killer. They all play different and each is affected differently by different perks. Even if I want to play a new killer and play at my usual rank I need to unlock all the perks, and it's so much grinding just so I can try out a cool build.

The bloodweb just exacerbates the problem with new killers coming out every few months. Even if you ignore the fact that some people start playing later or some people stop playing for a while, the amount of grinding increases exponentially. When you unlock the killer and their 3 new perks, you have to unlock them on every old killer + the new one (because unlocked perks show up on every killer so if you want a certain perk on a killer you have to also unlock every unlocked perk), and that just keeps happening until it takes longer and longer to grind for 3 perks on every killer.

I wish you could at least leave a perk and it wouldn't show up again. But seriously, just do it the normal way and make it so that you buy any perk in a separate place but increase their cost, or maybe you make it so that you have to do a little challenge to unlock the perk, and pay bloodpoints for each perk tier. That way it doesn't matter how many perks you've unlocked and you don't rely on luck. You can still have add-ons in a bloodweb; and maybe to prestige one stage you do the bloodweb thing or you have to pay 5 million bloodpoints or you have to unlock a certain number of perks- but anything is better than what it is now.

At the moment it's worse to unlock new perks or get new ones from the shrine because they'll just make it harder to get want I want. I'm punished because I didn't realise at the start that unlocking new perks was actually bad. And if I want a perk for only one killer, all my killers get in their bloodweb. So half my killers are at level 30 bc I don't need their teachables and you're basically forced to buy them if you want to progress. I can't believe it hasn't already changed? Why? The game is older now, and sorry but there's no actual argument that supports the way it works now.
