#Better NVG at cost of (something like) aim-down-time

Something thats slightly less vulnerable (even if not completely immune to) flares, or flashlights, or even simply just less "grain", or any other number of things, but at the cost of aim-down-time or something else.

Was thinking in helmet/hat slot of character, thus also costing head armor for those that can get it.

This came about from a chat from a user complaining just how the NVG seem to be "Gen 1 night vision goggles" and how they have so much grain and are "so bad"

Maybe this could be extended to allow thermal-based or IR-based NVG or other types/gens, with their own downsides? Not sure, TBH not the most fleshed out idea, but want to give it and see where it goes

just to fill into the convo, i have a slight idea on how this should go, and considering that they are tons of well-known nvgs out there they could also serve as another customization option for characters

#

for example, let's say the starter nvgs we have for everyone is the pvs-14, obv it's gonna have some crazy grain and will not be that bright as opposed to the higher level unlock nvgs like pvs-31s or even gpnvg-18s
