Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

An annoying inconsistency that needs to be changed

This issue has been in the game for a while, but it still remains unchanged today and it bothers me.

Back around the Unknown's release(?), BHVR started putting the beginning flavor text in a different italic font, which makes the description flow nicer, and clearly separates the perk's effect from the flavor text.

HOWEVER. They did not retroactively update this for older perks, so now there's this annoying inconsistency between perks.

An example:

Can we please get this fixed? It's one of those things that is disproportionately irritating, but it'd only take a bunch of <i> tags inserted into perk descriptions to fix for good.

I'd do it for free myself if I could!

    I can't tell you how many times I've felt this way about all the typos, grammatical errors, and just plain cringe writing I've see in this game.

    Honestly, I wish that BHVR would stick with one form of writing things or change all of them if they plan on doing it. I hold a similar annoyance with certain killer descriptions now being blander and more boring and not even describing what they do now. I mean for God's sake it went from describing what the killer can do to xenomorphs description effectively summing up to "it's an alien".

    There is a swathe of creative players that would do all kinds of stuff for a simple commission fee. But when it comes to projects like this, the most obvious solutions tend to be the least likely to happen. In my opinion.
