Please reanimate the old moris finally
I know it's not an easy task, but common, Hilbilly's mori has been awful for ~7 years, it looks like mocap (which it probably is), Trapper's and Wraith's also deserve some love.

it would be nice to see older killer morris in 3rd person so we can appreciate the cosmetics more
I would definitely like to be able to switch to third person perspective. I hope that at least that can be achieved.
As a side note, Trapper's memento mori can be compared to a fishmonger cutting tuna into pieces.
Definitely behind a Mori pass. Most of them look flat with no real weight behind them.
People criticise Skull Merchant for her Freddy rip-off Mori, but at least Skull Merchants mori has some actual weight behind it, and actually looks like someone getting stabbed. Freddy's looks his arm just kinda clips through their body and they fall over.
Myers mori works well from first person, and looks decent for the most part, just needs some gore and clean up the clipping a bit and you've got a solid mori. Nurse and Doctor are pretty good from first person too... you could have sections where you switch between first and third person as needed.
Trapper could really use a redo on his mori, just slashing repeatedly on the floor doesn't fit his image too well. Setting up a trap and shoving a survivor face first into it using his boot on their back would look so much more badass.
Wraith also could use something more fitting. I picture something like 3rd person swirling around the victim, shimmering invisibly while taunting them with his gong like a death march. Then having the survivor lurch suddenly as if stabbed, only for the Wraith to unveil himself with his blade stuck through their chest, him staring into their face. Give us like a cinema trailer stare down shot, only for the survivor to drop from view as the Wraith takes his blade out, and he doesn't move as if preparing for his next victim.
Billy, the idea is fine... but again lacking weight. 3rd person would help a lot, have them pinned under his boot, and really have Billy crank his chainsaw, then slowly push it into the victim. Even if you cut to Billy's face and have his face get splattered with blood, it'd look so effective... especially if you have him suddenly lurch as the chainsaw "cuts through the ither side". It's little touches like that which give so much more weight to these kinda things.
You can really have fun thinking each character and improved moris.
