Changes to make console killers more viable
Many killer has special attack which feel clunky on console so making every special attack bit faster on console killers could be good solution. It would bit even out the advantage pc killers have over console.
Another change could be add better autoaim for console like fortnite has on controller players. These changes could be good start. Few techs like Oni 180s could be made possible to do as well.

As a console player these changes would be nice. Being able to play billy, Oni, and blight would be nice.

The best things they can do to help out console killers are:
Add M&K support
Add decent controller settings, including addressing the stick dead zones and input lag
Properly and thoroughly optimize the game's coding
Still not sure is all that would make Trickster actually playable but maybe. Just maybe.

Update game to engine 5 and kill old gen

Yeah, me who is also a console player would also love more support. Cause playing on PlayStation 4 while using certain killer’s definitely does feel clunky like you have mentioned.

Do you enjoy shooting Pinhead's hook into the floor, the sky, anything but a survivor? Then boy do I have a treat for you, controller players.

Yeah and it actually feels special attacks takes more time to use than on pc. Pyramid head feels worst I had survivors able to dodge attack while they're dropping pallet. I did the hit exact right time too. Huntress feels clunky too.

Not sure they can update to UE5. They'd have to do a recoding from scratch I believe, something they've said they have no plans to do. Maybe the mobile version can? That was fresh coded.
But even if they did, so many of the issues come from having to use a controller and not having any settings with them to work with.
As far as the Switch and PS4 and my ol' venerable Xbox1, this is a live service game; they have to continue supporting them until Nintendo and Sony and Microsoft each end their support. Or the game cannot actually be technically run on them anymore.
Something like half of all consolers are still on the prior gen machines, and the vast majority of the playerbase is on the consoles, especially worldwide.

Tell me about it lol, everytime I play killers like Blight, Nemesis, even Xenomorph who is new, Nurse,and Huntress like you mentioned all do feel equally harder to play as. I will say that with Killer’s like Blight I mentioned tends to sometimes be too sticky and sides way too much on console. I also wish they made Killers more console friendly and easier to play. Cause it would help everyone on console a lot.

Keyboard and Mouse support for console (no excuse for not having it with crossplay being a thing)
Analog Stick deadzone support for smoother controls when looking and moving
Improved auto aim
Reduced recoil from Trickster throwing his knives
Custom aim sensitivity when aiming weapons on each individual Killer, like Huntress, Trickster, Deathslinger, Nemesis, Pyramid Head, etc

As a console player I can go without auto aim as the current auto aim tends to screw me more than it helps me

That why I suggested making it better where it would actually be more helpful. The current one still help me sometimes but sometimes screw me too. And there should definetely be option to turn it off or on if you want.
