The guest always knows where you are even if you hide from him he usually camps and waits for you even if he didn’t even see you hide in bushes. in my opinion it would be way cooler and scarier if the guest just roamed aggressively around the forest instead of just knowing where you are all the time it would make him much less predictable imo
Imagine this your sneaking around the forest and suddenly you hear croak noises and the guest passes by and you pray to god he didn’t hear you
