Idea for Killer Customisation that isn't cosmetics
I've been having this thought whenever I play a Match as Freddy and I'm chasing a survivor down a narrow hallway, say like in Midwich or Badham, "Hey, wouldn't it be cool if I could run my claws against the wall as I chase this Nea?". And it got me thinking about other taunts or intimidation methods that other killers could use. Staying with Freddy, his default taunt could be running his claws against the wall during a chase, slowing him down slightly as if to say "Hey I can afford to do this because I'm confident I can catch you still". It would add so so much character to the killers, like how Billy's new shout gave him a surprising amount of personality. The idea would be to use them in a chase, but for some it would be hard to come up with a moving animation for them all, like say the Plague. Instead maybe she could kneel down and pray, for maybe 4 or 5 seconds and then she stands back up. This would probably be used after you down someone. This is just the skeleton of the idea though, hopefully I can add to this thread with more ideas for all the killers. And I'd love to hear your ideas too!! And maybe with enough hoping we can one day get to rub it in the face of that neon Nea with the flashlight

Honestly I think this would be really fun to see as long as the devs keep the emotes in character and don't go to overboard (like crappy fortnite emotes). Adding different little things like the claw running against the walls for fredy would add a lot of personality to some the the characters.

Id love to see killer emotes, imagine a Micheal Myers head tilt

Stuff like that is exactly what I'm talking about. For licensed killers, like Myers it would probably be pretty easy to come up with the emotes since you can take some scenes from their movies and render them in. And a head tilt is so on point for him! Another idea I had was for The Legion, as I recently rewatched the trailer for their chapter. With their knife they could wipe the blood onto their mask in the shape of a smile, just like how Frank does in the trailer, and Julie does to Frank's mask in her archive cutscene. The killers need more personality!!

Gen completion animation. Kind of like the new years gens when they have fireworks. Survivors can equip personalized sparkles and sounds that come out of the gen.

Ghostface takes out his camera and snaps a picture.
For pig, I'm not sure what would be a good animation, but being able to play the billy laugh on command could be neat.
Huntress could use her finger to see how sharp the hatchet is

Love the Ghostface and Huntress ideas!! Pig would have to play a Billy laugh, or maybe take out a tape recorder, holding it in her hand for the survivor to hear, and while doing so being unable to attack. It kinda keeps with the same idea of taunting them, like "I'm confident I can catch you that I can take these few seconds to do this animation"

I'd be down. I could already imagine Ghost Face shushing someone before laughing in they're face.

I love the idea of Ghostface just peeking around a corner and snapping a picture, or even doing his wave from the trailer. I wouldn't be able to take the match seriously anymore at that point because GF is already so lovable!
