The game is infinitely funner with game chat. Its proximity based, Jason can eavasdrop on people and hear your plans if close enough, and really the only way to coordinate anything and make a proper escape. How the author skipped on probably the most important part of the game and still did this write up is beyond me.

Completely agree! My friends and I had a blast last night for a few hours playing through it. Even a lobby of randoms with mics is fun once you’ve died. But without them, it is incredibly boring if you die early and are stuck watching the rest without being able to communicate with them.

How dare you explain obvious game mechanics!!

Game’s infinitely funnier with a lobby of friends.

There is in-game voice, but it’s proximity-based. You can only hear players close to you, and if Jason’s nearby he can eavesdrop on your plans. IMO it’s an integral part of the experience and adds a whole new level of depth, but there are definitely some issues to consider.

I happened to find it very enjoyable. Yes, the wait times sucked, but they improved vastly over the weekend. There are ways to escape from Jason, and they are very simple and easily found in game. And escaping as a team is very satisfying and there is a benefit to doing so, but you can go solo if that is what you…

Pocket knife, fire crackers, and having another player hit Jason with a melee weapon can free someone who is captured by Jason. You can stun him with melee when he goes to crab you as well. Or shoot him with a flare gun or the rarer shotgun. If you team up. You can even kill Jason. The game needs some polish but the…

WTF who still uses skype in 2017 ....

Now I kinda understand why people on my friend list were playing it for so long: they were waiting for the chance to actually play it.

While your concerns overall seem valid, I have one bone to pick.

There actually is a way to kill Jason, but it’s pretty convoluted and requires immaculate teamwork. If you’re not in a group communicating through Discord or another VoiP app (which kind of takes away a lot of the tension) it’s basically never gonna happen in pubs.

Why let what other people dictate what you like? Fuck them. This is a whine piece written to whine directly to Blizzard because it is a public forum with viewers. So let them whine and like what YOU like.

How dare you bring facts and logic into this space...

He... just wanted the tabs to be different. Where the fuck did you get him not understanding the definition of “opinion”?

Dude... wtf...

Okay, sorry, I’m just going to not read the whole thing because I need to address this:

The frog masks are a reference to deadmau5. Instead of a mouse, he’s a frog instead. The colour scheme of the black and white one is a reference to Hatsune Miku’s colour scheme, which is black, light grey and neon teal.

The new skin…

It’s Kotaku, they’re like Tumblr journalists.

This article is a classical example of absurdity.
Brazilian people love soccer more than religion.To them soccer is a religion. It is not a “black man” liking and being good at sports. It is a Brazilian who loves his country and his religion ( soccer ).

Having reviewed it last year, I’m going to laugh forever at Velvet Sundown being on this list.
