The end of Friday the 13th: The Game

Is there life after the death of Friday the 13th: The Game?

Personally I think the answer is no.

 

 

Just thinking about the date December 31, 2024 makes me wanna throw up. And panic. That is the day of death of this game. I'm not even sure if I want to live beyond that day. (Be careful what you wish for, it might come true)

Every day the end of Friday the 13th: The Game is getting nearer. Every special day is the last chance to play this game. Like Easter, coming up this month. Last chance to play as the Easter bunny Deb. Then never again. Not in this life.

This lamentation was brought about by the release date reveal of Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game. Made by the notorious Illfonic... Will the game be good? At this point I have lost all hope. 

And I'm not talking about (just) Killer Klowns, I'm talking about all the asymmetrical horror multiplayer games. All of those have been horrible disappointments after F13 for me. Game after game horrible, boring and monotous gameplay games. Where by default the killers have the upper hand. No, you are not supposed to escape, preferably never. I say no thank you to these games.

I want fun, versatile gameplay, where the victims have a real fighting chance every match. 

 

I will go down with this ship called F13.

I don't even dare to hope there will ever be a good substitute game.

 

For me with the end of Friday something a lot more dies than just the game itself.

After Friday is gone, what will I do or play on weekends, or weekend nights? What will I play while getting drunk on weekend nights? No other game can bring such joy and fun.

For me Friday the 13th: The Game will always be the love of my life.

 

So this Friday (pun intended), in honor of International Women's Day, I will play Friday. I just can't decide should I honor women by playing only as female counselors... or by playing only as speedo Chad?
