I'm sick and tired of seeing this about Freddy
HIS LUNGE IS THE SAME AS EVERY OTHER KILLER!
He has an extremely small weapon, so when he hits survivors it looks weird but its the EXACT DAMN THING as all the other killers
Hell, pretty sure a Dev mentioned this before....

I'm sure because of servers and latency it looks even larger.
It does honestly feel that way that the reach is far more than normal, but my friend has coined Freddy for "Go Go Gadget Arms" at this point.
It's a combination of his short stature and his smaller weapon. Part of it is optical illusion and the other part of it is movement speed balancing game mechanics due to model sizes.
Much like Gnomes in World of Warcraft, Freddy appears to move faster than other Killers because he's so much shorter than they are. He covers the same distance at the same length of time so TECHNICALLY one could argue he's faster than other Killers but then again Legion, Ghostface, and Pig all fall into that same boat.
As for weapon range once again TECHNICALLY, due to his weapon being short, it TECHNICALLY has a longer lunge range than it "should." This is done in order to equal out to the other Killers who have larger weapons.
So TECHNICALLY on all accounts the complaints aren't NECESSARILY wrong but at the same time they are.

Some people will always complain about something no matter how much you will explain it to them.
Might as well talk to a wall at that point.
You summed up the entire forum community.
