I support you whole heartedly, but I think perhaps the devs should actually make a mode or option for hearing impaired than for you to have to rely on a perk to do so. Accessibility is important!
Would a visual alternative to the terror radius/heartbeat that pulses on the edge of the screen and beats faster where there would be the increase in volume work?
In a form like that, it would still allow stealth killers being able to sneak up on players as well :)
Accessibility is important, and where I'm all for an option that'd give you the pulse you're talking about, there's also a lot to consider with that. An example of something like this would be Fortnite, there's a hearing impaired option in advanced settings that gives indicators to what kind of sound is being made and in what direction, even how close it is. Problem with that is, anyone can turn it on, giving anyone an advantage over poeple that just don't turn the option on. Another thing to consider is the pulsing idea, depending on the brightness or screen effect it'd give, it could hurt eyes, give people headaches, probably even induce seizures if not handled correctly. Also if you're as unlucky as I am and are hit with the double-whammy of being hard-of-hearing AND color blind, making the pulse any color like red won't be any help at all.
DBD mobile has the right idea with the heart pounding in your chacter's chest, but it also has the same problems as a screen pulse would have. (IE color blind issues and eye strain)
Your suggestion isn't bad at all, there's just a lot to consider when making a feature like that. Spine Chill shouldn't feel mandatory, no, but if you want a clear and consistent way of telling whats happening around you without audio; it's really your only option.

Premonition.
For real though, while it, certainly does what spine chill used to if the change goes through, the perk's activation at even a short glance then going into a massive cool down wouldn't be any more help than saying "just look better 4head."
Thank you for having fun with me though.

If its effect was extended to "When you're in line of sight of the killer, or when you're in the killer's terror radius" that would be fine. I'm happy it's getting removed as a counter to stealth killer but if it's used by hard of hearing peeps who can't hear the terror radius, think that should be considered by the devs.
Have you tried Stake Out to see the terror radius visually?
While this would be the next best alternative, Stake out tends to give out false positives or not be the best at giving a direct answer if the killer is coming towards you directly, so you're back to guess work, same with Diversion. More informed guess work for sure, but if anything it just induces more panic than assurance, leading to worse choices. I understand the stealth aspect, but Spine chill working as it does now is the most consistent way of people like me who have a harder time hearing things like a terror radius to know whats coming
