the thing that annoys me about Freddy, everything he has exists in better forms elsewhere. Sadako's teleport and Clown's bottles are both better versions of his teleport and snare traps.
Man I still have the pipe dream that we'll EVENTUALLY get the real Freddy. Would love a revisit to the first 3 movies, some survivors and freddy skins. Robert Englund voice lines would be the cherry on top 😢
Freddy NEEDS to be a deception killer. Totems, gens, pallets maybe have these things cost different amounts of charges. Make survivors waste their time in the dream world. Also, he needs some power inside the dream world. Snares are too boring, so what if he acuslly used an extendo reach whose cooldown was reduced per person in the dream world? Whatever happens, he cant be boring, because freddy is already such a lively and unique killer.
I think that freddy should be a combination of Doctor and Dredge. With the players falling asleep like the nightfall and they will start having hallucinations, like the madness. So, another player could help to make then sane or have some pills in the map, like de Pinhead box. Whem they fall asleep could have a power like Sadako, that kill the player
100% getting that version of Freddy's likeness was some licensing fuckery and from what I remember when I played back then: the reason for the repeated nerfs and eventual rework was less-so from public outcry or flame-wars in forums (like something you'd see more of in today's DbD), but from that most of the playerbase is new players and they found the Freddster substantially more confusing to play against than the other roster. But man, I really wish they stuck with the og gameplay concept and refined it out
I honestly don't understand. Who the fuck thought, that abillity that Freddy has now is a good idea? It's awful in so many ways and isn't even lore accurate. If Michael, who is also in desperate need of buff or even a rework, at least feels like Michael, Freddy feels like a random homless man, who was paid 5 bucks to pretend to be Freddy and he is so fucking bad at it. I really hope Freddy eventually will get his rework, because the amount of wasted potential is insane
My idea for a Freddy rework is something between old and new. Have him pull you into the dream world manually, and unable to hit you until he does so. When you are pulled into the dream world, your body would go into a stationary, limp pose, something like the Spirit's husk. And your dream self appears somewhere on the map. I'm thinking, a random hook decently far away from Freddy, and from any alarm clocks. Being a dream, you can't interact with anything physical- So no progressing gens or anything like that. Instead, you will have the simple goal of waking up. Perhaps waking up can be done as it is with new Freddy. Either finding a dream alarm clock to wake yourself manually, or hoping an awake survivor goes to your body to wake you up for you. Meanwhile, Freddy can hook your dream self. Awake survivors can not see people's dream selves, or anything going on in any dream. So they can not unhook someone's dream self who's been hooked. Maybe an awake survivor can't wake up the body of someone who has been hooked and is dreaming, or maybe they can, or maybe only in certain circumstances. Depends on how strong or weak Freddy should be made. Perhaps a survivor can manually put themselves to sleep and into the dream state, allowing them to unhook a hooked dreaming survivor while in the dream world themselves, but at the cost of being directly vulnerable to Freddy. Anyways, this would ultimately give Freddy a fairly unique playstyle of putting survivors to sleep, before hunting them down, while the survivors do their best to stay awake so they can do generators and avoid getting hurt. Maybe throw in the dream snare or some other wacky stuff he can do in the dream world.
Changing Freddy's lore and abilities to something with more oomph doesn't feel very difficult to me. Lore / story wise, make it so his powers are similar to that of the entities in how they work and make him close to rival it in sheer strength, that will make Freddy seem much more intimidating, but also explain why his powers are weaker in the actual hunts, because it's clashing with that of the Entity. For Gameplay, it should feel like he's almost cheating, messing with the environment, reshaping it, or walking through it, literally, give him the ability to merge with a wall, and slice from it, with some form of penalty or debuff instead of damage. You can literally do anything with a Dream / Nightmare power, balance it how you want, and just cop out with; It's just dream shenanigans.
Everything about Freddy is boring. The grey filtered “Dream World”, his power doesn’t work unless the survivor is asleep, his perks are trash, AND THEY USED THE REMAKE FREDDY instead of the original one that every body loves.
as the only freddy main on dbd (I enjoy the series) I completely agree they did my boi dirty. Edit: even though his old power is trash I would rather have it tbh as it was very unique. modern day freddy is a joke.
Pre-rework Freddy wasn't actually that bad, but he needed rework because if his old version exsists now, he would play an hour matches like the chess merchant. With old Class Photo addon that shows all survivors auras while one of them in a dream transition he could just permanently put everyone in a dream world. And then start chases, trade pallets while all other survivors should repair a gen 50% slower and of course he can see how u repair that gen. Yes u can miss the skillcheck but with this u will lose 10% of a gen and then he will come back and put u in a dream world again. I don't think that this is a weak power, but it's actually very boring, like i said before - second chess merchant, but even this is more fun for me then his actual power
I really want to love playing Freddy but it just feels like survivors being asleep does almost nothing for you, they don't really need to worry about it too much even though it should be the most powerful thing about playing Freddy... They did say they plan to rework him in the future but there's no telling how long that will take.
I miss old Freddy. At least it was a unique experience when you found someone who knew how to play him. New Freddy just feels like a budget version of other characters. (Lol im typing this at the same time you get there in the video. Kudos!)
God everything about this chapter its kind of sad I remember when it first came out and I was hyped getting to play as FREDDY KRUGER and at first he was god awful then 2 years later he was reworked and even then he was just kind of boring then later when he nerfed I found him pointless to even play
killer NEEDS A HUGE REWORK!, this killer can't even use stealth perks or terror radius perks its about half the perks in the game like WTF!, i like his dreamworld oblivious no terror radius but that is like the only good thing about this killer, unfortunately it is ruined by his lullaby song! the lullaby song should be map-wide! it should be freddys world so survivors auras and freddys terror radius or info should'nt be shown to survivors i also think surivvors should not get chase hud info if they're in freddys dream world. doesn't fit the lore survivors get to much info in the dreamworld its makes no sense.
I LOVE FREDDY LEAVE HIM ALONE, just re work him i have the best ideas for him, such as activate power see all depending if they are half asleep or fully, survivors in map and activate power where they are in a night mare where back is up down is right and it changes every time and put scary things all around survivor for an amount of time such as fake freddys and dead survivors Have freddy set trap in walls where he extends out like in movie. Keep the teleports and use the traps as a means to increase the nightmare timing or put survivors in sleep faster
You can only see survivors who are asleep or half asleep and see him up close when targeting survivors from across the map. Or only see them depending on how tired they are. ALSO the wall traps can come out and attack you if you are in max sleep running from Freddy in chase. If half asleep and Freddy hit you you are full asleep and that activates wall traps as well but they are limited and only on vertical walls Your welcome people
okay but actually why isnt cross progression in the game yet? oh i know why they’re too busy making overpriced cosmetics and working on “the casting of frank stone” guys i think you should prioritize cross progression in your 7 year old game before making a whole ass other game 😭
the thing that annoys me about Freddy, everything he has exists in better forms elsewhere. Sadako's teleport and Clown's bottles are both better versions of his teleport and snare traps.
this killer is so boring i fell asleep watching this

Me who became the first ever p100 freddy just to spite someone who said i wouldn't dare
I really hope they get Robert Englund to do voice lines while they still can.

the real betrayal here was bhvr reworking freddy. Original freddy's power was so much more interesting and fun.
Too bad everyone thought he was too weak.
“Go Go gadget lunge!” 😂
It’s super ineffective!

I feel personally attacked

I still miss the old Freddy, he was worse but he really WAS more unique.

The remake was good actually

as the only freddy main on dbd (I enjoy the series) I completely agree they did my boi dirty.
Edit: even though his old power is trash I would rather have it tbh as it was very unique. modern day freddy is a joke.
Just like the OG vs remake
i got the rickroll ad at the start and i thought it was part of the video
Oh my Golly did he fix the miscolored spot in his OC's eye
The slowdown freddy was the most dced by survivors
Pre-rework Freddy wasn't actually that bad, but he needed rework because if his old version exsists now, he would play an hour matches like the chess merchant.

Also, his teleport is probably the worst one in the game. The cooldown is crazy long
just another dub video from dbd content creator Skrump. As expected.

Gens took 65 seconds not 80 back then
Freddy has never got a buff ever
The term boring is way too overused for killers...just say you dont like the killer if thats how you feel cuz boring is something this game is not
God everything about this chapter its kind of sad I remember when it first came out and I was hyped getting to play as FREDDY KRUGER and at first he was god awful then 2 years later he was reworked and even then he was just kind of boring then later when he nerfed I found him pointless to even play
Hey I know this guy
killer NEEDS A HUGE REWORK!, this killer can't even use stealth perks or terror radius perks its about half the perks in the game like WTF!, i like his dreamworld oblivious no terror radius but that is like the only good thing about this killer, unfortunately it is ruined by his lullaby song! the lullaby song should be map-wide! it should be freddys world so survivors auras and freddys terror radius or info should'nt be shown to survivors i also think surivvors should not get chase hud info if they're in freddys dream world. doesn't fit the lore survivors get to much info in the dreamworld its makes no sense.

Your welcome people
I thought Knight and Skull Merchant were the most boring killers
I don't know about most boring. but definitely the most disappointing. Freddy is my fave slasher killer.
The people that want Fnaf in dead by daylight need to shut up we already have the better Freddy
3:28 Myers, Jason Voorhes, Freddy Krueger?
Edit: Yes
0:30 based
you da bomb
N word is just a word
okay but actually why isnt cross progression in the game yet? oh i know why they’re too busy making overpriced cosmetics and working on “the casting of frank stone” guys i think you should prioritize cross progression in your 7 year old game before making a whole ass other game 😭
