Friday the 13th: The Game - Best Jason

Beginner's guide: Jason

For a newbie Jason the most important thing is to choose a running Jason. That means part 2, 3, 4 or 5. If you don't know what to do and don't know how to shift, you will be in a lot of trouble as a walking Jason. 

Some Jason experts say that the best Jason for a beginner player is part 3. He is generally good all around, and doesn't have any big weaknesses. And you can put that purple NES-skin on him... and we also call him the stealthy Jason, his music is so damn silent that it's often a surprise that he is even nearby.

 

Part 2 has the most traps, so he has the best objective control. If you play as part 2 and don't use those traps for objectives, you should probably change to a better Jason. Part 2 has a bad shift.

Part 4 has the least amount of traps, only 3. So he has the worst objective control. He also has bad shift, and pro players say that he's the worst Jason to play as. But part 4 breaks doors fast, and can run. So in the right hands he can be a terrifying force. If you play as part 4 you need to focus on not letting counselors regain their stamina. Personally I hate playing against part 4 Jason the most. Or any running Jason, for that matter...

 

 

Part 5 (Roy Burns) has the biggest amount of knives. So maybe, if you don't know how to utilize those knives yet, maybe he's not the best choice for a newbie? Or maybe he's the best for practicing throwing knives?

I haven't played much as Jason because I hate it, and I'm not good as him. So now I just focus on being a helpless counselor.

 

All the Jasons are so damn ugly. I especially hate the neckless part 3, ugh. So when it comes to looks I chose to play as part 5, he looks the most human. But I hate having to break doors as Jason, I'm way too lazy to do that. So these days my choice is that pathetic part 4... if I played as Jason. Which I don't.

Happy Valentine's Day from Jason Voorhees!

 

I for one will be celebrating this Friday the 13th: The Game's last Valentine's day by playing it, hopefully for at least 5-6 hours. I bet it won't be as romantic as I'm hoping for though...

Maybe I'll see you at the Lake? Please don't run me over... And please don't hold hands with Jason, eww.

 

You think that it's not possible to celebrate Valentine's day and other occasions in a game, let alone in Friday? You may be right, but I have developed a stupid and pathetic system.

I'm trying to make most of it with the little resources we have, to make special days and holidays special in this game. I have been doing this for years.

On Valentine's day I play only with counselors who have pink clothes. Cop Kenny and Victoria, who is one of my favorite counserors. Because isn't pink the color of love and Valentine's day? Some might say that it's red, but I hate red.

 

In March is endometriosis awareness month, and it has been my tradition for years to play then only as counselors with yellow costumes. Personally I even hate yellow color, but it happens to be the color of endometriosis awareness. During March there's even a day to wear yellow for endometriosis. I don't own yellow clothes, so I'm settling for those on F13.

And then at Easter I'm gonna play only as the Easter bunny, ie. bunny Deb. I used to main her, but then I played as random counselors and realized how difficult it is to play as her. So now I only play as her at Easter. I think it's sacrilege to play as Deborah Kim using any other of her clothes than the bunny outfit...

 

 

Likewise it should be against the law to play as Chad wearing any other clothes than the speedo...

This is AI's view of speedo Chad... 

 

 

While playing with AI image generators I have learned that AI has dirty mind. In one image a man had his hand inside another man's pants. I had NOT told AI to do that. I was like WTF, AI?

Happy Valentine's day! You can find creative ways to celebrate it. Even alone. And even in Friday the 13th: The Game, like I do!
