The lack of accessibility and QoL is embarrassing, especially for killers.
Field of View is not a game mechanic, you need to implement an FOV slider, immediately. I don't care how long it's been and I don't care how much better it might make killers, an FOV slider is a MANDATORY feature in a first person perspective that all other games are now rightly expected to have. 87 is NOT an acceptable FOV either, it can cause headaches, nausea and eye strain especially over long periods of time. Fix this.
Equally, gamma is also not a game mechanic, it's a necessary feature. Looking at extremely dark maps is a surefire way to cause a ton of eye strain. You need a Gamma Slider, I don't care if it makes the game easier, do it.
You just implemented a visual heartbeat for survivors who are hard of hearing, where are the accessibility options for killers who are hard of hearing and survivors and killers who have impaired vision? You can't use the excuse that it makes the game easier because I know every single DBD streamer isn't hard of hearing and they ALL use the visual heartbeat.
The ability to see things clearly and correctly is not an in game skill, it's a mandatory requirement you have failed to meet at every turn.

There’s no way you can implement any sound or visual q for killers. The whole point is for survivors to evade them. They can’t do that if the game tells them they are there. The game is meant to be dark except for coldwind apparently. Personally, I wish coldwind was dark again. I’m guessing you’re a killer main who doesn’t do well against stealthy survivors. All of those things you want would make the game unplayable as no survivor could ever hide from a killer.
They haven’t addressed them because it’s intended.
I wear glasses myself but I don’t expect bhvr to cater to me. Especially, as it would completely break the game.

Like I said, don't care, there is absolutely zero excuse for not implementing basic visual QoL.

Yes there is an excuse. You can not care all you want but that doesn’t change the facts.

Oh boy, here we go again.
I sure do love people defending FoV so bad it actually makes people vomit.

I actually made a post about audio help for killers with hearing issues etc.

glad to see it, really need people pushing for more accessibility and QoL, the fact that we've gone so long without it is just sad.

I was really hoping for something in the anniversary stream about killer accessibility but there was nothing at all.
The heart beat stuff for survivor was a wonderful addition but killer has nothing.

If a game makes you vomit why play it? 99.9% of people have no problem. You’re right though we should break the game making it unplayable for everyone because that’s what would happen if you gave killers audio and visual q’s telling them they’re near a survivor. Everyone would use them. EVERYONE. All the survivors would quit because you can’t hide from the killer at all.

And I'm about to quit because I can't properly see anything on some maps, the only difference here is your absurd level of survivor bias.
