This desperate for one of the most generic and boring licensed killer options possible….

This time it really does feel like it's him. If we do get Jason, it'll be funny in retrospect to know Illfonic lost the F13 licence but pivoted to making a Halloween video game, whilst DBD lost the Halloween licence and and finally got around to adding Friday the 13th.

He watched that one Scott Jund video lmao

It is kinda funny that he's popular just because he's popular. Like his movies are regarded as rather low quality, they don't explore anything interesting artistically, and didn't establish much genre wise that Halloween or Texas Chainsaw didn't already.
It's a franchise that continues to propel itself just through brand recognition alone.

i am not even a fan of Friday 13th or Jason nor have i watched most of the films but seriously? Nothing interesting artistically amd didnt establish much Genre wise? Do you even know anything about Friday 13th other than the character Design of Jason?

No. Jason IS generic and boring.
There's nothing special about him, he's just iconic off the name alone but in terms of something that would be cool to add to dbd? There's like waaaaay better options, a plethora of them in fact. We already have temu Jason with trapper. He's not interesting to me.

Ah is this corny trend still happening on this site where if anything you say is slightly similar to what a CC says, people on here will just say you're parroting them as if humans aren't capable of their own thoughts and feelings?

I do, and I've watched plenty of slasher movies on top. If you can tell me what the movies had to say or what the brought to revolutionize the slasher genre outside of sheer popularity, I would genuinely love to hear your take.
I think slasher as a genre is something that can be used to express interesting ideas and cultural anxieties in a very visceral way, and I find F13's very safe and by the numbers rendition of slasher tropes very disappointing because of that. So once again, I really do want to know what I'm missing beyond "Dude, but it has Jason!"1 -
Jason isnt really known for using Beartraps though, only thing in Common with Trapper is big guy with mask and big knife?
and then we have ‘copys’ that still don’t really feel redundant anyway: Hillbilly-Bubba, Myers-Ghostface-Legion, Spirit-Sadako…And DbD is at its core mostly a slasher game that expanded, leaving Jason feels weird. He obviously is THE slasher.
Also, even the more interesting choices are Limited by the Games Engine and mechanics and we are at a Point where any new Killer will inevitably reuse something that was used before regardless of what they are based on. Jason still brings iconic look and sounds..

Jasons story in general, as its pretty relatable for a killer: being at summercamp and getting bullied for his appearance. Then also adding and a tragical isnt something that other slashers at the time tried? Also the whole Dynamic with the mother. While Texas Chainsaw May have leaned into similar grounds Friday 13ths was imo more realistic and actual relatable, understandable. Wasnt it also way more creative with its deaths? Not sure if thats just something that developed with the many sequels but compared to Myers or Leatherface Jason is known to use the Environment or different weapons way more.
As for popularity, it must have something that did spark and held the interests despite it’s ‘poor quality’. And pretty sure its success helped the Horror/slasher genre in general.
As i said, i am not an actual fan, but Jason remains iconic and has notable differences to other slashers of his time.I am not talking about the x-th sequel btw, and milking of the Franchise, of course the quality went down and probably got staler

Like I've told others, if they can manage to give him a unique enough power to justify his existence, then sure. I still believe other options are more interesting than big guy with machete, I'd rather not go off name value alone.
-2 -
and who decides what is unique enough?
do you consider Bubba unique enough when Hillbilly was already in the game? It is im the end big disfigured guy with hammer that can instadown with chainsaw.And as already stated, we are at a point where EVERY possible new killer will inevitably have something not unique for them..

the new killer Judgement is just another version of Pyramid Head as well,

Like you said, a lot of that stuff can be found with Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and if anything F13 is remarkable for how little it cares about its characters. It's a lot of stock character archetypes without any attempt of exploring them further. It's trying to imitate the feeling of a campfire story, but honestly the films are surprisingly boring and lack a true sense of suspense like Halloween creates so it just feels like a waiting game for the next kill. And yeah the kills themselves are neat, but if I don't care about the characters or the story it sucks the fun out of it outside of a purely technical aspect.
And yes, the films did have something that made them into a cultural phenomenon: a lot of money behind it while being pretty cheap to make. Not a lot of film series can pump out 8 entries in a decade, not even Halloween in that time, and I don't think its because F13 somehow had that much more to offer.0 -
"Everything I disagree with is ragebait."

Like I said, similar but notably distinct. Texas Chainsaw Family isnt really relatable at all..
And, you are focusing on all the sequels while i am trying to focus on the beginning, where the slasher genre was pretty much defined and these iconic characters were made into icons.
you could argue that not investing too much in the characters is also something that Friday 13th brings into the Genre uniquely and can extend Jasons past. We are pretty much watching his story - while in Halloween we are watching The Final Girls story.
I am not arguing for the endless, probably poor quality sequels and all.0 -
I mean I'm not thinking about sequels other than explaining its popularity. Honestly if we want to discount sequels, F13 comes out even worse. While the usual pattern for slasher movies is an interesting and novel first installment that gets milked dry, the first Friday the 13th movie bucks the trend by being genuinely awful. Its the definition of a film stretching itself thin to fill the runtime, with really the only scene of note until the end is the one where the crew tortured an actual living snake for fun, presumably for no reason other than sheer boredom. Pamela comes out being probably one of the most interesting characters the series has to offer, while still being overall a pretty bland example of the "woman gone crazy from grief" trope.

I mean, the fact that the devs chose Jason of all horror icons with which to base their OG killer/face of the game on kind of speaks to his significance in the horror genre, no?
2 -
Yes, he gets by off his name value. That's my point, he's generic BECAUSE he's just the slasher guy you think of.
0 -
Then wouldn't it stand to reason that people would WANT the iconic slasher guy? Especially to join the roster with OTHER iconic slasher guys?

When will we officially know who the new chapter is?

I suspect May 22nd, as that was the date of the blurry thing in the roadmap.
