Anyone else noticed sneak detection radius is lower?

I'm 99% sure detection radius was lowered in the last few days, but I haven't seen anything mentioned in the last patch notes.

I was able to go completely unnoticed by NPCS with 10 meters bonus (night terror = 2, darloc brae = 2, CP = 3, Khajiit = 3)
Today I noticed NPCs now can detect me if I'm standing right next to them, which was NOT the case 2-3 days ago.

It now feels like a 9 meters bonus, that is, before CP changes (night terror = 2, darloc brae = 2, night mothers embrace = 2, Khajiit = 3)

Any thoughts?

    I've been meaning to post something about this. For me, it started before U30/Blackmoor/CP2.1 and is more than just detection radius, which is bad enough. There are also situations were no one is around but I just can't get into a Hidden state. It's dire. At least half of my nooks and crannies no longer work, either on PC or Xbox.

    The "fail to hide" problem could be a different thing, as far as I can remember I've always had situations like this. I don't know if it's due to detection radius, could be just lag? Not sure.

    I'm fairly confident the lowered radius started after blackmoor for me.

    Yes, it’s always been there but I can usually get around it by standing up, moving around and crouching again. Not any more, though.

    I could understand a radius reduction in relation to stars in CP2.x if they’d announced it but I didn’t catch it if they did.
