Hook Screams
So clearly nobody is liking this "intentional" change. It would save a lot of time if we reverted this change instead of replying to every single post one by one being so adamant about this change.
I get what you were going for but it's just an unnecessary change plus it comes with a side-effect that takes away reaction time from survivors against hook-related perks like pain resonance and dead man switch etc.

I like that screams now align better with the animation.
It makes sense that the expectation of pain induces a scream, and not just pain itself.
There’s something severely wrong with bhvr’s communication with the community if this many of us think this intentional change is a bug. It seems a little odd that there’s multiple details that weren’t in the most recent PTB but are in the live build now. It’s almost like they didn’t want us seeing them before hitting live.
Sorry I get it but I can't ignore the effect it has on the gameplay which matters more than immersion for me. I've stated the effect it has on my post.
This. I didn't even post all the screenshots of them literally replying back to back forcing this change onto us like "It'll take some time to get used to!"... But why? Why don't we make changes to stuff that actually matter instead?
Absolutely! That quote got me. It feels very backwards to me that these fundamental changes aren’t discussed between developer and community before being added to the game. I’m hoping after seeing the amount of confusion and feedback to do with this topic bhvr will revert the change until they can implement something we can all agree on.
Oh, I'm not ignoring it's gameplay effects either - I'm happy about those. You gave the impression that it was just an afterthought besides your main issue.
Hook related perks are still quite easy to dodge, as there isn't a particularly long window where hooking can happen.
Well teach us then because everyone is struggling right now.
If the killer picks up somebody, hooking will happen in 16 seconds tops or the survivor wiggles out. This is the time-frame where you should be applying whatever counter-measures you did before.
So I don't touch a gen for 16 seconds out of paranoia?
Either that, or you could accept that some perks the killer picked will actually affect the trial.
