    Yeah I'm more of a fan of his coverage of the games industry as a whole, he is brilliant when it comes to criticizing the actions of companies.

    I've enjoyed the hell out of it.

    The devs have said they will be significantly supporting and given their an indie company. They don't have a lot of wiggle room to fuck around with the game.

    I only have one real concern about the gameplay mechanics. Its not as obvious when playing with pubs. But a well organized team of counselors can basically beat Jason into submission and if coordinated enough...kill him despite the number of steps required.

    People have gotten around to the strengths/weaknesses of blocking counselor attacks, making them break their weapons on Jason. They only real weakness to it is Jason is much slower swinging his weapons in combat mode than outside combat mode. The trade off outside combat mode is Jason can swing his weapons much faster, but the trade off is he can be stunned much more easily.

    I think the devs need to implement a multiple kill mechanic for Jason for groups of counselors that try to gangbang him so they can escape or try the multiple steps required to kill him.

    Okay, so ive been playing this game for a bit now and im a bit conflicted.

    1. Its not quite worth 40 dollars as it is. Multiplayer only and only a few maps. Come on, this is 20 bucks. Add the single player they promised and 3 more maps and its a 40 dollar title.

    2. While it can be buggy at times they do a solid job of fixing issues. Also, ping is an issue IMO.

    3. Aside from the limited maps, the biggest issue i have is with the community. This aspect really makes or breaks the game. When the game is full of people with mics and who all understand the objective and work together, its possibly the best multiplayer game out right now. But that happens like.. 25% of the time. The rest of the time youll have a mix of people who will be willing to do this and then three loners or trolls. While this does not kill the game, in fact in many instances it really makes the game worth playing and varying.... kind of more accurate to movie in a sense, it can kind of suck but its never frustrating enough to quit playing.

    One great aspect of the game is it takes on the personality of the people you play with. For example, ive ran into one guy a few times who when he plays Jason, he turns his mic on and is constantly acting like a Mormon. So instead of hearing the Jason theme, you end up hearing this "hey buddy, have you heard the word of our lord today?", getting louder and louder as he gets closer. and it ends up being more terrifying than anything else. Youll run into personalities like that quite often.

    Overall... meh... the price is an issue. If it was 20 dollars i'd call it the multiplayer game of the year. Its become standard for me. The same way Elder Scrolls Legends or Ultima Online are for me, where ill pick it up and play it for an hour or two every other day and because of the unpredictable nature of it, its not gotten boring. And while i put it on this high tier, i cant give it a high rating because of its flaws.
    So im going to give it a 6 of 10 for now. If/When they add the single player and a few more maps, ill kick that up to 8 of 10. Its just... its in such a weird place for a game to be in. If anyone remembers the first gears of war multiplayer and how amazing that was.... think of that and then imagine less maps and no single player and youll get a sense of what this game is like. Where it would be on this brink of being the multiplayer game of the year.

    Started playing this last night because it is free on PSN.
    Wow this is a BAD game! It nails the F13th, 80's vibe but as a game the issues it has
    is busting at the seams.

    Such a plodding pace playing as both counselors and Jason. The controls feel clunky, the graphics are
    borderline terrible. The clipping issues are some of the worst I have ever seen. It drastically takes you out of the game.

    I'll spend more time with it but probably not much. Dead by Daylight is so far superior to this.

    With the lawsuit potentially clearing up. There is a slim chance the game will see more content again in the future. The cancelled Uber Jason and Grendel map perhaps. They are supposed to make an official statement at some point soon.

    That said. Other than sound, atmosphere and the Jason/Counselor models, the game has ALWAYS been one step forward, multiple steps back. They've never been able to fix something without breaking something else. Take this from someone whose played the beta in Christmas 2016 up until a few months ago.

    Here's a comprehensive history on the game from someone who was there from the start.
