Freddy tweaks + addon pass concept (open to criticism!)
How would you feel if Freddy was entirely invisible to awake survivors?
passive phasing would happen for asleep survivors until he was right on top of you (12m or so).
I'd pair this with swapping the lullaby and terror radius. you'd be able to hear Freddy's lullaby while awake and his TR while asleep.
I think if there was an addon pass with an emphasis on perception altering hallucinations and dream decoy props, Freddy would be a lot truer to his movie representation. (and more unique)
What do you think?

He should be harder to see while awake, but not completely invisible - that would be too broken.
I would normally agree about the terror radius and lullaby swap - but it both lacks thematically and is the opposite of what you, as a killer, want.
Heartbeat is a lot more specific than lullaby - and the lullaby is also a lot more creepy and dreamy. It would make more sense to hear the singing while they're dreaming and to feel a sense of foreboding while lucid than the other way around.
There should absolutely be a few passes on the items to make them more interesting.
But they really need to have a major overhaul of the killer overall.

I think it's pretty universal that the dream pallets are more worse than the snares. So give Freddy the ability to do both. Or they could make an addon that spawns dream pallets randomly every 30 seconds similar to iridescent stone

people in the movies consistently hear the freddy rhyme before he gets them, but before they're fully asleep.
but I agree.

I'm going to take some of my ideas and merge them with some I've read. Freddy being invisible to awake survivors would be broken if he could still attack. I think yes he should but he has to hit them with an attack to send them to sleep before he can inflict any damage. To build on that idea, if a survivors gets awaken during a chase, he should be brought into the real world and becomes an M1 from there. Freddy should lose dreams snares and only have dream pallets. There should also be fake hex totems, boons, generators, lockers, chests, ect; which are only seen in the dream world. I would also say while in the dream world and Freddy is in a chase, he should have near instant vault speed and leaves scratch marks on the walls. These would give the survivors an incentive to try to leave the dream world and prevent it, and to make Freddy not tunnel as much as survivors would maybe bait him into going out of the dream world or trying to take multiple people in back to back.
Before I left a post talking about how going into sleep should be reworked. Instead of being on a timer he should have to hit you with a new attack to drag you in. Also if survivors stand still, hide in a locker, do a generator, open a chest, or anything that is doing one action or a lack of an action for a long time would lead to them falling asleep instead of the timer. The ways to wake up would still be the same tho.
