Killer Action Priority Over Survivor Interactions
• Killers now take priority when performing certain interactions. This includes:
• Kicking a generator while a Survivor is repairing it.
• Picking up a downed Survivor while another Survivor is attempting to heal them.
This change ensures Killer actions remain responsive and reduces situations where Survivor interactions can unintentionally delay core Killer actions.

How the hell does that make the killer games easy its a simple fix to a mechanic that the killer can’t do anything about.

No thanks, if you wanna make me move from a 99% gen, hit me

but you won’t move from a 99% gen you’ll complete the gen then get downed which is a way better trade offer than one hook stage and don’t say what if I was death hook you’ll probably run away before the killer even gets to the gen

Nah totally not. Its way better to give killers even more interaction priority when they logically shouldnt have one.

You aren't 'fixing' anything, you are making it killer sided. There is no inherent reason either side should have priority in these cases (i.e. its not a bug that survivors get priority).
If you switch the priority to killers, now survivors can't do anything in these scenarios.
And there's lots of reasons to keep it with the survivors.
The gen one would be the most egregious. Right now it creates exactly the feeling a game should want. Do we stick out the gen and risk the hits / a grab, or run for it? Survivors need to make this decision well before the killer gets there, you can't just skip to the 99% moment. You have an interesting, tense decision that needs to be made that involves timing, risk, and trade offs, everything that when pulled off right is what makes DbD fun.
This would just eliminate that. If the killer always has kick priority, just run for it.
The killer's counterplay to survivor actions is his weapon, the survivors counterplay is actually doing the actions. If the killer got priority on both it would take out lots of important game elements.

With the changes mentioned here, it would force you out of the 99% gen, getting back to 94% + regression + almost free hit, so yeah
