Spine chill, what hell?!

I have played this game on PS4 for over a year, love the game. But now Spine chill has been changed to line of sight instead of being near the killer. Why the change? All it done now is made it useless, it use to light up when the killer was near, then turn red when they got really closer to you. Now it only works when you or the killer has direct line of sight, what use is the spine chill now. It sucks now, why are you changing the game so much to fit the killer, and taking a useful perk from the survivors.

    Because they added the visual heartbeat accessibility option. Now you don't need a perk to be able to tell if you're in the terror radius of the killer or how close they are.

    The proximity indicator was added as a bandaid fix accessibility option for the hearing impaired. As we now have the visual heartbeat, Sprine Chill was reverted to how it used to work.

    It does not make much sense that it works only with visual contact since you do not need a perk that I tell you that you are seeing it when you are doing it by yourself, really the previous good utility of this perk was that you could know if a stealthy killer was approaching and lurking, your heart doesn't tell you that since it only marks the terror radius when there are many killers who can hide it.
