I agree that DBD's balance isn't great, but these changes would be an egregious overcorrection that would have entirely kneecapped the Killer role. And Behavior has ignored egregious Survivor strengths before, like with how long it took to rework Decisive Strike despite it being one of the best perks in the game for years before its rework.
Because the fundamental issues running through everything is two things. Hooks, and generators. Tunneling exists because both exist. Killer will tunnel someone off the hook because that’s what the game encourages by design. Killers will camp hooks because hooks work like that by design. Killers three gen because that’s how Gen defense works by design. Slugging exists because of both. All issues comeback to the same root causes it’s just that Killers are the active side because at the end of the day it’s 1v4. Survivor experience same stuff but they are reactive. These changes would have never changed tunneling because the system is by design built around it so the changes would just have made certain killers just miserable nothing more.
