Freddy buff

To me it seems a bit pointless in having to go through the work to licence freddy and use him as a marketing tool as he is one of the most well known killers in the history of gore. So why have him worthless and useless, he needs to be powerful.

I think every survivor does this but when they hear Freddy's lullaby they just sit on the gen and do not move even when they begin the transition some survivors still stay there a few more seconds as they normally have a pallet right by next to them.

So make the transition time way more shorter than what it is, maybe 3 seconds and remove the decrease time adds ons.

or if not this then maybe try this idea.

when a survivor is first pulled into the dreamworld make "micro-naps" so the survivors can randomly fall asleep even after been woken up. Decrease the chance of skill checks during the dreamworld. if you can not wake up then the longer you stay in the dream world then freddy can teleport to you but to counter this freddy can not see your aura from distance. The time for this would have to be quite long but this can be discussed and does not take long to wake up.

    Remove Freddys aura reading and buff everything else. Shorter dream transition, less skillchecks etc.

    What would be the point of his power then?
    The aura reading allows him to break a chase to go for someone else and to come back, when survivors are not expecting it.

    Freddy feels like a prisoner who desperately tries to kill OP beings that can leave his realm whenever they want.

    Survivors should hit perfect skill checks in order to wake up. This way, he can use some more perks that are completely useless on him.

    His power is to get everyone asleep to slow the gens down.

    If waking up wouldn't take 5 seconds, I would agree. But the moment they start doing gens, they get a skill check.

    I feel like Freddy would be better if once the gens get power he transitions into the real world, where he can still put people to sleep to slow them down but can just hit them without them having to go to sleep, like something from the entity drags him into the real world. Small change would stop Freddy getting bullied post match.
