Hooking/Unhooking Suggestion
The hook system needs an overhaul in the FUN realm of things.
When a survivor gets hooked they should have two options: 1) to unhook themselves and 2) to wait and be unhooked.
There would be a two-point system. If a survivor chooses to unhook themselves they receive one point out of the total of two toward their death score, and the hook will be covered up by the Entity for 30 seconds making it inaccessible.
Any killer trying to camp at the hook in order to rehook the hooked survivor will immediately ANGER the Entity because it created the realm for sport, and it is not being entertained or fed. The ground around the hook will start to open up in order to pull the killer into the ground since the killer refuses to do the Entity's bidding. And the hunger meter would begin to increase in that proximity of the covered hook. This would ultimately end the match if the killer doesn't move and pursue someone else, with the killer receiving no points, but survivors getting whatever they earned.
Option 2) If the survivor decides to wait and be unhooked they receive no point toward their death score, but the hook will be recognized as it is now having been hooked once so far.
This new approach will allow for a more engaging match instead of the 'sit around and wait game'. It's becoming boring.
Killers need guidelines too. There should be a hunger meter showing for the killer, and when that meter gets filled the Entity tries to eat the killer. This would also address farming trials where killers are working with the survivors.
FYI- It is NOT fair to survivors that have outlived the rest of the team to be automatically killed when being the last one hooked, just because they are the last. They should get a chance to save themselves just like everyone else

I understand that some hooks are near generators, but this will also allow for strategy. Gens will also not be able to be camped but after 30 secs the killer will be able to continue as normal. I believe this is fair considering the new update will increase gen repairs to 90 secs. That is plenty of time for a killer to stop the repair, and it is a good way for survivors to fight back at the killer, by using the Entity against the killer.
