Ghost Face reveal mechanics should be like the Unknown’s

Why can’t Ghost Face’s reveal system work the same as the Unknown’s power? I could be staring right into GF’s soul like Miley Cryrus at the Grammys and I still won’t begin to get the sound effect that I’m in the process of revealing him out his power, why can’t he share the same mechanics as when a survivor is trying to get rid of their weakness by looking at the Unknown?

    First it only takes 1.5 seconds to reveal ghostface compared to the 10s it takes to remove weakened.

    Second Ghostface has the ability to crouch and lean to stalk to make it harder to stalk him

    Third you need to be within range and have 30% of ghostface's body in the center of your screen.

    As for why these requirement exists, it's because Ghostface sole power his is shroud. So if survivors could easily remove it, Ghostface would just be pointless to play as.

    Compared to Unknown who also has the ability to teleport and Weakened results in his power being capable of damaging you which can hit through walls and is AoE, it's a bit more important survivors have an easier time removing it since it takes 10 seconds.

    I literally have ghost face’s whole body dead center of my screen and I’m standing still reasonably close to him staring right at him and can’t even start revealing him like come on

    Normally, you reveal the ghostface pretty easily despite all the peculiarities his reveal mechanic has. You sometimes can reveal him even through walls or when he hides behind a wall. If you can't start revealing him, that means that the problem is with the collision of the walls/surrounding clutter/objects (once again).

    While I agree Ghostface needs to be a little easier to reveal and the current system is a little too clunky, I don’t think his reveal system should be as forgiving as Unknown’s. Getting it somewhere in-between would be okay.

    If they did that the spaghetti code would quantum entangle into a prenzel triggering the universe to collapse into itself causing the 2nd big bang and for billions of years we return to this time where they decide to nerf the pig again.
