Lobby animations blocked by held Items

The recent survivor chapters the best one half heck even two years had cool animations that got plenty of views of social media. Alucard's bat is definitely my favorite.

But thing is, 9 times out of 10, you're playing with an item. Which have just a single, standard animation that's hardly changed.

Why do these animations that clearly have hard work and talent so easily blocked in the overall Dead by Daylight experience? It's 2025. There's a better way of going about this!

A few suggestions:

-Have item animation for a few seconds start first, then survivor animation plays

-Show no item, and show info via menu or match pre-match roster.

-Integrate items into animation. Be expensive but it's an idea.

-Have animations be lobby taunts with cool down. More taunts can be unlocked throughout gameplay.

What are your thoughts and ideas?
