Have the devs made any acknowledgement or commitment to fixing console blight?
I'm just wondering if the devs have acknowledged how limited console blight is or if they've mentioned fixing the issue? Currently blight is incapable of a comparable turn rate to what is on pc. Essentially on PC you can turn instantly the full 90 degrees. On console you slowly turn to slightly shy of 90 degrees. This means that blight can take turns significantly sharper on pc and is a much stronger character for it. It not only impacts the shots he can even go for, but also makes him more resilient to being dodged.
Besides the frustrating reality that there is no good reason we can't just use mouse and keyboard on console, it also kinda makes me wonder why they didn't think of this shortcoming, since we had the same problem with oni. Which leads to the conclusion that they did think of this shortcoming and simply sold console players content that was substantially less functional. A good example of the gap is posted below. I challenge any console player to pull off this shot. Even if you don't replicate his pathing and you drag yourself along the side of the wall, you can only get sorta closeish.
So my question is, have the devs acknowledged that they even care about this? I'd like to have hope that this character will at one point be worth playing on console and resemble the playstyle of his pc counterpart, who looks like a cool and fun killer. With such a small change needed to fix him for console, it seems wrong that they haven't done it already.

We are still waiting (it’s been 2 years +) on the promised console optimization. Don’t hold your breath on them doing anything to help blight/oni. They simply don’t care.

I really wish they'd give us cross progression so I can at least be on the platform they care about creating a functional game for

Switch to pc. I am a console blight main but reality sucks, if I want to get better the switch is necessary.

I mean, this can work......but not everyone has $1000 just laying around. My advice is to just play a different killer. Hag and demo work well on console from my experience.

That looks like an exploit or a hack. Blight cannot turn instantly, and that was an instant turn. AKA, a flick. Something Blight isn't supposed to have and, in my months of being a PC Blight main, has never had.

No, we need those promised 60 steady frames & better optimization to run this port on consoles please.

I have this problem too, on console I can flick with nurse, billy, and oni. Blight I can only do 45 degrees with max sensitivity, it makes him unplayable.
