Something i really wanna discuss.
So I've played Ghost Face since his ptb and i have enjoyed him ever since but theres always been something that bugs me about his design also i wanted to talk with a developer about this on the AMA but sadly it ended before a dev got the chance to respond. :/
1.) You lose your stealth by hitting a survivor.
2.) You can get revealed losing your stealth.
3.) Hitting a survivor resets your stalk progression.
Now one and two im fine with but three is something that's bugged me for awhile i feel this actually is the problem with stalking it's not just the reveal mechanic being inconsistent its also the fact you cant touch a survivor or else it resets them.
Ghost Face right now is in a really good spot but its also because of people understanding how his stealth ability can be super good but the downside being a ton of people find stalking to be literally pointless as it takes to much time its inconsistent and the simple fact the stealth play style is just better to be totally honest.
The point being i really think just removing the stalk meter resetting would help him a ton i get there are situations where its better to just basic attack but i just feel hindering his stalk meter is what makes stalking just actual garbage.
I know there are going to be people who are gonna say but hes in a really good spot right now and while i agree i still argue stalking is not and whether we want to admit it or not stalking was meant to be a core of his kit and it lacks any actual potential because its almost like its crippled to prevent exposing a survivor from being worth.

does people still stalk? i love playing him only for gen grabbings (when dedicated servers allow me, of course). also, stealth + i'm all years = top tier
