A Few Bugs?
I've been playing this game for a few days now and the entire time when I come near enemies, the monster eye icon that is supposed to show up at the top of the screen does not show up for me.
And I also noticed that when you go down into the room where you peep through the walls to view the different operation rooms to reveal the doors in Chapter 5, the main room is always fuzzy/blurry and it made it very hard to see through those peep holes.

So... any ideas?

What difficulty are you on? And I forget if TEW1 has it but i know different hud elements can be turned off in TEW2.

I do know on higher difficulties it does not tell you whether you are noticed or not while sneaking.

Intentional.

I'm on survival difficulty, I figured that would enable it right?

Did that happen to you too in the room? I didn't notice it on MKIceAndFire's playthrough and he's on the same difficulty as me. Both the eye icon and the blurry room.

The blurry room is just part of the game in general. I imagine it can probably be disabled via some of the console commands that wholesale disable graphical effects, but I've never tried.

As for the eye thing it's been so long since I played survival difficulty and I don't have the game installed right now to check if the eye icon is an option in the menu or not. I know Nightmare and Akumu definitely disabled it.

The eye is something you can turn off in the settings, I actually think by default it was turned off for me I'm not sure

Survival mode or higher difficulties disables the enemy awareness icon - as known as the "Eye" icon. You can't turn it back on unless you switch to Casual mode.
