Ghostface's blight skin really seems like it's "pay to lose", it shouldn't glow while in Night Shrou

I dunno if anyone still cares about this, but it's definitely something I've always thought about whenever I see the skin ingame.

Ghostface's blight skin is pretty cool design-wise, aside from the removal of the sleeves, it's one of my favourite designs in the game, but you rarely ever see it because it genuinely hinders Ghostface's ability to actually sneak up on survivors, I get that all blight skins are supposed to be oozing glowing orange goop, but for on certain maps ghostface glows like the surface of the sun. On most other killers that wouldn't be so bad, but for a stealth killer? It's such a huge hinderance.

I dunno how easy this would be, but why not make it so the skin doesn't glow as brightly while in Night Shroud? It'd help balance out his visiblity alongside his other cosmetics, and still lets players show off the glowy blight aesthetic while in chase. It'd probably help boost sales of the skin since you wouldn't have to worry about viability when purchasing it.

    Yea, i don't get people using shiny skins on stealth killers who can't go invisible. Like... WHY????

    I guess, for special Halloween theme vibes even if it doesn't give them a gameplay significance advantage. Obviously I wouldn't wear it all the time. But, hey; you can still instant down if you find any nearby obstacles and attemp to stalk fast enough in order for you to 99% their progress and then you can instant down that way. Maybe at that point, stealth doesn't matter; but if I wanted to do stealth and instant down; I most certainly wouldn't use that skin for that purpose.

    sometimes as survivor i wear the glow in the dark skeleton shirt even though it makes it impossible to hide in normally shadow covered locations. sometimes you just gotta make sacrifices for style.
