Sadako and the Visual Terror Radius

I seriously question whether she is still playable.

    I doubt too many people will use it? Plus it's not like her lullaby was quiet or something. Anyone paying attention would hear it anyways.

    Clump of hair + reiko's watch is still a dirty combo against potato survivors. 0 chase power but it does mean you can usually get right up on top of people wraith style while still having her teleport

    I saw someone mention about how the Visual Terror Radius would still be active even when Sadako was Demanifested in the PTB, did that get fixed?

    You have an indicator when she is demanifested near you so you can accuratelly know she is near.

    I do not think she is unplayable, however as soon as I realized the visual terror radious can detect lullabys I turn that on, if I can get an advantage out of it would be dumb to not use it.

    Well you can always just slug with ring drawing since that’s clearly the intended way to play her

    The advantage is so minor if you have no trouble hearing it normally, it is not worth the time to go into the settings, even if it just takes 3 seconds.

    Good thing that I switched to playing No Power Sadako way before this patch

    She's the only M1 "Stealth killer" with a lullaby radius. The visual TR also shows Lullaby Radius's. Ergo, when this particular "Stealth killer" is approaching, survivors now have a visual indicator that shows you she's nearby, y'know, just incase you didn't hear the LR sound.

    in all honesty, its F'ing stupid that the devs gave an M1 "Stealth Killer" a Lullaby radius in the first place, but now that survivors can also see exactly when she's within 24m of them while in her Demanifested/Stealth state, the OP is arguing that the fact she has a stealth mode at all has been rendered completely pointless.

    Have you tried? Do you usually play her or are you just complaining to complain?
