Neurodiverse options
as someone with autism, I find certain things harder to process. Especially quick things.. so usually in games I play options where I can assess and be stealthy.
autism has sensory overload issues at times. Some it’s noise, some it’s lights.
So for me, when I face the trickster it overwhelms me, the sounds, the slashes on the screen, it’s a lot to process and I end up just accepting my fate quickly.
it would be nice if you had an option to block matching with a specific killer for that reason.
im sure other neurodiverse people experience other issues that would mean they would like to avoid a killer. I’m sure giving a single slot wouldn’t mess matchmaking and wait times too much.

The better option would be for BHVR to tone down some of the sounds and visual effects. That would be an easier fix.

On one hand I agree since I'm similar with Plague since the vomiting noises make me feel nauseous but on the other hand it'd quickly be exploited and you'd have survivors adding killers they just don't like playing against or they find too strong.

I also am autistic and I 100% feel you… but blocking played Killers isn't it. We can't just say people can't play some Killers and get in your lobbies due to blocking them just because a Killer affects you badly, that sort of tool can and would be used to just deny some Killers from ever playing the game at all. Like Skull Merchant, how is that fair to her players? Or Pinhead, lots of people hate versing Pinhead, how is that fair to someone who likes playing Pinhead like I do? It would mess up MMR for these players and result in long queue times; it's just a really bad idea.
A better option is just to tone down the sound effects and brightness, or have a sensory friendly filter option that does that for the player. No actual comp player would want to soften these cues, but for people with sensory issues such a filter could help.
