Notification Bubbles Need to Go
I know this has been brought up before but I can't stress enough how annoying these "Notification Bubbles" are. They block your view so much and make aura reading perks less valuable.
The aura overlap wasn't the case before and it was acknowledged as a bug for a long time until someone came forward saying it was "intended" after months even though it obviously wasn't the case up until a certain update.
When I play Killer it makes perks like Bitter Murmur very hard to see since this bubble also pops up when a generator is completed and whenever you bring Kindred as a survivor you can't see the Killer properly.
Other than that there are cases where it just physically blocks your view completely preventing you from seeing the game.
The solution can be a couple of things: either make the Bubble transparent again so it doesn't block the auras of players and prevent it from covering the screen or a new type of notification for hooks and generators could be designed.
I really think both Killers and Survivors could benefit from this visual change. That's it! Thank you for reading.

Agree with this.
The existing effect is simple, effective and looks good, but it is too intrusive and can block crucial information at certain moments.
I'm a proponent of keeping stylised effects in DbD, I wouldn't be too keen on an icon replacing the bubble...
I'd prefer a less intrusive audio shock wave effect. Although this example is centered on the player, something like this kind of wave to give a rippling audio effect on my hud I think would look very good without obscurring vision.

Yes, they could make it as simple as not having that blackness inside but just the outline of the bubble. Like this shape: ⭕️
