Why I hate Freddy (and why he's unbalanced)

    I agree with that, Freddy is very powerfull. Freddy without power is already very fast and difficult to spot since he is invisible at a certain distance, he also has a higher hitbox problem than the other killers. The fact that he can replace a fake pallet right after a survivor has fallen into the trap is a little too strong. He literally has the add-ons of the clown but much less dodgeable than this one and yet, he has these two other powers as a bonus (Teleport to generators and be invisible when he is out of the radius of terror).


    The second concern is that the stronger a killer (see too powerful), the more likely it is that toxic players play it first, I rarely come across a freddy who does not tunnel, or who does not play memento and yet I have come across quite a few. He is probably the only killer who poses a real problem for me and who has absolutely no fun surviving.

    It maybe me, but it reminds me of the days of overpowered Nurse and Spirit. 🤔

    Freddy is fine where he's at. Much like The Doc, he takes a little more player skill to play against and survive chases. There's no mindless looping against the him because he can and will shut that down.


    And you know what? That's a good thing. The game needs strong killers otherwise what's the point of even having the killer role?
