Quality of life suggestions from a Deaf player

Hey guys. I recently made this post via reddit, and I'll copy and paste the contents here.

I just joined via the PS+ freebie and I've been having a huge blast with this game and everything about it.

However, I feel like this game could have a little bit of accessibility options. Which I feel like could be implemented fairly and not be used in a situation where it's being used for an unfair advantage.

The first suggestion is that, I feel like there should be a rumble feature for the terror radius. It could be a gentle pulse to a harsh pulse depending on the range and how far you are from the killer. I believe this is a fair mechanic and does not really encourage a disadvantage, and in fact it works for a lot of people since some people play with a lower volume, or with music in the background or so on. So I feel like this could be used by anyone to have a fun time.

Second suggestion is that I feel like there could possibly be a survivor noise radius wheel. Limit it to a few meters, you can be notified someone made a loud action nearby to your character. Obviously this would need some specific tweaks, but this could be limited to a few meters instead of having a quite large radius like the Killer does.

Third suggestion is for the pain notification the survivor has, I would actually like to see a small notification, maybe on the side of the screens or close to the general UI area is a small sound icon that would notify me how much noise I'm making while hurt.

I think these are a few QoL suggestions I think that would improve accessibility and have an overall experience improvement for those who have a disadvantage with their hearing but while keeping the gameplay fair and not attempt to give anyone a large advantage, and I'd imagine these options to be opted-in or out any time, no one will be required to use these features and turn on via the option menu.
