We need a update for killer animations

Honestly, there are some killers whose animations look kinda stiff due to the fact that killer updates are mainly focused on the power or add-ons, so not much attention is given to animations. For example, most killers now have their own pallet break animation. Yes, most still just kick the pallet, but the kicking animation is slightly different to make it look like they're actually kicking the pallet. However, with a character like Freddy, he uses the tall killer kicking animation, so it looks like he's kicking the air and not the pallet.

Then there's the flashlight stun animation (when you get a flashlight save). Both Freddy and Pig again use the tall killer animation, so it doesn't look like they're covering their eyes at all. But if you go look at the animation for Legion and Ghost Face, you'll see they correctly cover their eyes. So, while Pig and Freddy have reused animations from the wrong-sized characters, Legion and Ghost Face use the correct animations for they're killer height. Also, so many killers in general have outdated animations and I'd personally love to see old killers get fresh and smoother animations.

    I'd love a minor update to xenomorph's animations.

    His tunnel exiting animation is horrible, his crawler mode animation in the trial is really silly. Devs have a perfect animation in the endgame screen where he keeps the head straight and the tail is straight, but it's just not used.
