Rate the Character Day 33: Jason Vorhees (Friday the 13th)

Board 8

4.5

I just prefer my horrendous murderers in the more wisecracking variety if his prey is going to be so bad about it. Taking quite some time to develop his identity takes a while. Additional point for a solid motivation and for Jason X being legitimately amusing, but sound design can only take you so far out of the apathy zone.

Wrex - 7.5/10. Good when he gets the chance to be, but his questionable status of how alive he is at any given point in a sequel hurts his overall impact on a story. It speaks volumes that he's one of the one reasons I'll replay ME1, but I don't think he's handled all that well mechanically past that. Always interesting when he shows up and fun, just needed a little extra push in, say, ME2 to get to "fantastic".
