No, videogames are not merchandise in that sense. A videogame would constitute a new narrative work, technically speaking, whereas a figure based on an existing Jason design would not. Sadly, we're not getting any new movies or videogames until after these two crusty old men settle their fucking lawsuit. But hey, I'm just happy NECA can start making Jason figures again.

You should have posted the rest of his tweets in that thread. Basically, he said that WB has lifted restrictions on merchandise based on the existing films - including figures - since it has been determined that the only things that could be considered in violation of Victor Miller's rights would be completely new creations in the Friday the 13th universe. So no new movies, but merchandise is a go.

Ah, missed that post. But good news like this should be spread around, yes?

Obviously, NECA knows something you don't.

At SDCC at Home today, NECA announced a new Friday the 13th Part 7 Jason figure. I assume this means that the lawsuit is finally coming to an end??

If this is not the right part of the forum to do so, I apologize. But still great news, and the figure looks fucking awesome.

"Bryce" seems like an enormous douche, like all streamers. They don't even come close to having the charisma or creativity to sustain ten seconds, let alone a whole video, so they just adapt annoying and fake "over the top" personas and make complete dildos of themselves. What a retard.

Oh, cool. I could definitely find a few uses for THIS font. Thanks for posting it.

Yet another bold post, sir. I'm impressed.

A bold post. It would be even bolder if you posted your Steam/PSN screen name, however...

Maybe it's just that you're not quite as good as you think you are?

You know you're probably spamming when you have to preface your thread with this comment.

If you're a F13 fan than it's a must-buy. You can tell it was designed from the ground-up by people who have deep love for and great knowledge of the franchise. Sadly, it wasn't programmed by people with deep love and great knowledge of code, but it's still a lot of fun to play.

I still say the biggest thing was Illfonic's gross incompetence when it came to patching the game, with each successive patch breaking it more and more. I'd kill to roll the changes back to the state the game was in before the stupid engine upgrade.

They've already said that a Jason AI is never happening, and for obvious reasons. Counselor AI is much easier to program, and as surprisingly well-done they are (yes, they're buggy, but overall not horrible), they wouldn't have to do even a fraction of what a Jason AI would have to do. There's so many variables they would have to consider that a small dev could never get it working effectively in a million years. We'd end up finding Jason endlessly walking into a rock on the far side of the map every game. I can't even think of a big-budget, AAA game that has a single AI character search for and pursue you in a large and completely open-world setting. Anyone?

I'm sure people will be discovering new and exciting glitches in this game for years to come. I really hope the devs open the game up to mods when it's all over and done with. I'd love to see the community come up with their own fixes, content, etc.
