I swear to all that is the Entity. if we don't get Jason, i vote for Yoda as the next killer
13 -
Nah I still want Jason
26 -
We don't need Leatherface we have Hillbilly.
32 -
This game will not get Jason any time soon trust me.

I see you've reached the acceptance stage.
12 -
I'm afraid so.

Isn't Trapper based on Jason? It would be really redundant to have two killers who look the same
0 -
Bubba and Billy say hello
11 -
Legion and Ghostface tell you how are you?
4 -
They aren't similar to me really. Their powers function differently and all they have in common is a chainsaw.
They also look nothing alike, and I pointed out two killers who look the same. So how is this a contradiction?

We dont need The Trickster we have The Huntress
12 -
The devs already said Jason has a standing invitation.
the problem is literally just the lawsuit (and licensing negotiations once lawsuit is over)
6 -
Hillbilly was literally inspired by Leatherface, same as how Trapper was inspired by Jason, who says they would have the same/similar powers?
3 -
Jason is much more than a guy with a machete and bear traps. Sure, he used a bear trap in the reboot, but I envision him having some sort of teleport and a stealth mechanic instead. His perks would probably incorporate synergies with Brutal Strength and/or Enduring.

Trapper sort of looks like Jason but that’s about it.

feels more like bargain to me... "no jason, but we have trapper"
1 -
And? My initial point was that I don't see the point in having two killers who look similar. I never commented about powers, and even the comparison between Billy and Leatherface's powers is moot; their powers work entirely differently and they only have a chainsaw in common. What's next, Legion and Myers are similar because they use knives?
Leatherface and Billy do not look similar. I never commented on Billy's inspiration.
Why are people trying to respond with irrelevant information?
I will reiterate my point: I think it will be redundant to add Jason considering Trapper already looks like him.

at least 1 year minimum before it happens :(

We don't need Legion when we got the Twins
2 -
Bad take. We have several dudes with masks who all use a knife, and they aren't extremely similar.
Trapper and Jason share a vaguely similar mask and trapper has a cosmetic of a machete that isn't even his default. Trapper isn't undead either, so they don't look as similar as people say. Ghostface and Legion are extremely similar, but people ain't complaining.
1 -
We don't need Ghostface, we have Legion.

Jason looks entirely different from Trapper especially if you take in consideration all the different cosmetics he could potentially have, also why do they look similar to you? Because they both have machetes and masks? How many killers to we have that have knives and masks? You said it yourself, Legion and Myers but their powers are entirely different. Who says Jason would have a power even remotely close to Trapper?
2 -
Jason's power can be ... Set traps but in a hidden way. *Joke*

I see people are still clicking on 'New Discussion' instead of 'Post Reply'

I believe they would start him off slow but he'd get faster the more chases he's in kind of like Meyers' Evil Within mechanic without the need to stalk. He could also have special interactions with breakables. Like if a survivor is on the other side or against a pallet or breakable wall he can do some sort of rush move which would cause an instant down and break the pallet and breakable wall. He'd also have a low TR by default or while in chase his TR is lessened. Traps don't have to be necessary, nice but not necessary.

Jason is nothing but a buff man with a mask and workerman's clothing, which is what Trapper already has. And you already have Trapper cosmetics that look similar to Jason's, such as H20's mask. Will they look exactly the same? No, and I never said that either. But not distinct enough for me to think Jason is worth adding. I think it's really dubious to say they look nothing alike.
I also have no idea why you lot keep bringing up powers. I never said anything about powers. Why are you guys being heavily dishonest when responding to me and bringing up points I never mentioned? I never commented about what Jason's powers would be. I don't care
You lot are either trolling or being dense on purpose
0 -
We still need Jason. He has so much more to offer than just a machete.
2 -
I just wanted to cover the basis on how he could be different mechanically. But there's a lot in a name.
1 -
What power would he have that we don't already have? Just faster m1 trapper without the traps.
0 -
Assuming Behavior succeeds after the lawsuit is settled, I bet it will be another stalking killer on Behavior's part. I just hope, Jason is Tier S in this game.
0 -
Also I've had an idea in my head for how Jason would work for some time and honestly I think it would make him terrifying in the same way Oni is; that unstoppable force power for a temporary amount of time; combined with the slowness of Michael in return.
Problem is you can't discuss power idea on these forums unless you want to argue with someone who calls literally every idea ever OP lol.

this again

Stalking was a mistake. It's such a bad mechanic. Please no more.
0 -
Regardless on how you feel about adding Jason, it would definitely get a lot more people to try the game, i mean look at the Silent Hill chapter as an example.
2 -
Killer is played in 1st person... Why are looking similar even brought up? All killers look similar from killer perspective.
1 -
H20 was a Halloween sequel. No Jason involved.
1 -
Jason would have to be better than Trapper because Trapper is trash.
1 -
I still want Jason. Trapper is a joke of a killer, it would be amazing if Jason was in here. Jason is the final licensed killer DBD needs to be added.
2 -
That is what nobody wants and neither do I, we are already tired and tired of stalkers.
1 -
The post is part of a joke on Jason and Trapper. I hope those raging mummies release Jason as soon as possible and come here with Michael, Bubba and Freddy.

Saying "Jason is just a buff man in a mask and workerman's clothing", well I guess we never should of gotten Myers, that's all he is right? Or how about Ghost Face, he's just a hooded figure who wears a mask and wields a knife, just like Legion!
But guess what? Even if they look similar, they play ENTIRELY different! Crazy right?
3 -
I honestly know nothing about Jason and his lore or whatever so I have no idea how he would even operate in theory. I wasn't trying to infer that Trapper's ability is the same as what Jason does, I was simply saying they look extremely similar and I think it would be redundant to have two killers who look the same. Like so much the same that you could basically give Trapper a Jason cosmetic and all it would be is a mask and a worker jumpsuit and he would look exactly like Jason
The only other pair of killers in the game I can think of that look similar are Legion and Ghostface, and Ghostface and Legion's aesthetic is distinct enough to where they are not easily confused with one another
0 -
Yeah there's not that big of a visual difference between the two though I agree.
0 -
You lot are oddly incenced about this topic to the point where you initially were lying about what I said and responding with things I never mentioned. Weird as hell
Myers mask is already very distinct due to him being a horror figure so there's not much of a distinction needed for that compared to Trapper, an original character. The particular issue of Trapper vs Jason is that Trapper's aesthetic was already centred around what Jason looked like and they already look extremely similar, and Trapper already has cosmetics that resemble Jason's to begin with. No one in this game confuses Myers for Trapper. Put Trapper and Jason side by side and they don't look that distinct from one another.
The Legion vs Ghostface example is also not comparable either. Ghostface's mask is already distinct, again being a figure in horror and their overall aesthetic is different. Legion's cosmetic for the most part is generally very urban, Ghostface's cosmetic is...Ghostface, which again is already distinct from the source it came from. No one also confuses Ghostface for Legion or thinks they're similar in how they look.
Why the hell are you on my ass about whether or not they play different? I made no comment about their powers, nor did I say just because they look similar doesn't mean they operate similarly. I know nothing about Jason. I don't care. All I said is that I think having two killers who look the same would be redundant and you lot went on this weird ass tangent of responding to things I never said. Weirdos.
0 -
But Hillbilly was also centered around Leatherface's aesthetic, they're just 2 mentally challenged dudes who wield hammers and chainsaws who's backstories both focus around family and both lived on a farm. Yet here we are with Leatherface in the game
Your first argument of Trapper filling Jason's spot falls flat and I could of started off with this, but I wanted my fun ;)
2 -
Hillbilly and Leatherface look nothing alike. My specific point was that Trapper and Jason look similar, not just because Trapper is inspired by Jason. You're also trying too hard to split hairs here to contradict something I never talked about. What's next, Nurse and Spirit being very similar because they're both women? They look nothing alike. Hillbilly and Leatherface look nothing alike. Their (Hillbilly and Leatherface) lore is similar sure, but was I talking about the lore? No. Was I talking about their powers? No. Bringing up more irrelevant stuff.
You also are projecting. I never implied Trapper filled Jason's spot. I said I think it would be redundant to have two killers who look the same.
I also find it funny because I've supported my argument well, you lot have ignored it entirely and your comebacks involve bringing up irrelevant stuff. Your argument is the one that fell flat, and you're the one who took it too personally. Again, more weirdos being dense.
0 -
Those arguments lol, and I made this post as a joke in the first place.
0 -
Maybe I am being dense, but tell me, what are exactly the similarities here other than their both tall and muscular?
4 -
The better question is what makes them distinct?
Physique aside, the fact that you can simply slap a different mask on Trapper and add a jacket and he'd look like a Jason wannabe is the problem. You already have Trapper's H20 mask which looks more similar to Jason's mask.
Not seeing anything distinctive about their weapons either. They're just machetes with a non-distinctive look.
0 -
What makes them distinct? Clothing, backstory, and character
-Sure, slap a jacket on Trapper and put on a different mask and he looks like a Jason wannabe. Same argument could be made with Billy, slap an apron on and he looks like a LF wannabe.
-Both of their stories focus quite a bit on loyalty (Jason with his mother, Trapper with his father). How ever Jason first killed because of revenge, Evan first killed because of his loyalty to his father.
-Evan never wanted to become a killer, he resisted The Entity's influence and this is shown by the metal hooks that are in his back, Jason on the other hand would be a lot more willing.
Jason is also shown using a variety of weapons, not just machetes.
