The Perk Encourages Tunneling, Which Ruins The Game For Others.

I think The Perk Has A Cool Effect, But I Dont Use It Because I Don't Want To Be A Jerk, Ya Know?

    I think it was created to tunnel the obsession, and the obsession got perks to help with that. Both sides’obsession perks were poorly designed overall.

    Remember Me is at least good because it encourages letting the survivor go after unhooked so they can heal up. Dying Light is a poorly designed perk. If you're caught early as the obsession you get camped or tunneled into oblivion. If you're caught late or not at all then the killer wasted an entire perk slot.

    Well let's just reverse the effect.

    Dying Light - So long as your obsession is alive all action speeds (for survivors) are reduced by 25%

    "Lets see how long your team loyalty lasts now!"

    Now it will be the Killer getting chased by the obsession, just bagging to die.

    Dying Light shouldn't exist. 
    It incentivizes camping and tunneling. The 2 things survivors hate the most. Because they genuinely ruin the fun for 1 survivor. 

    Also the bonus is to small to make a difference.

    I remember I got into a game where the obsession DCed with dying light and the game was practically unplayable. 3 man with 25% reduce action speed was terrible. And yes. Whenever I get the dying light effect i play as immersive as possible and if I do get caught I get camped.

    Understatement of the year 

    Dying Light is toxic but luckily it's not too common. Decisive Strike on the other hand ruins the game.

    Only of your that desperate for the additional 5 seconds to get max out the remember me perk
    you get 5 hits on a tunnel! Does that one extra hit really prevent tunnelling?
