Looking back on Dead by Daylight vs. Friday the 13th: The Game

 Hello everyone I'm Jack Red, originally this look back was going to happen on this past Halloween. I wanted to wait until the new killer for DbD was revealed. Earlier today, we will be getting The Twins. Which is interesting in a sense, most fans aren't even aware of. Soul at Stake, which is a Chinese knock off of DbD already has a devil called The Twins.

Anyway, I'm not here to add salt to that. A few years ago, I did a full on comparison between Dead by Day and Friday the 13th: The Game. Very soon, the servers for most online players will be shut down for good. I knew this was coming but it is kinda sad this game over a lawsuit got it's potential cut short.

My opinion on which is better isn't going to change. Dead by Daylight has something for everyone. A lot of changes has came to Dead by Daylight greatly increasing replay value. A simple comparison now possibly a one sided argument. Friday the 13th: The Game did have some amazing kill animations.

It still the best license game on that franchise without question. It still has a strong fan base that supports the game. Dead by Daylight is one of those games you must play on Halloween. Honestly, I was happy to attempt what became one of the biggest recent horror game debates ever. I mostly chosen DbD over F13 because it was balanced better with multiple killers.

The fact, they had the balls to do Pyramid Head from Silent Hill series. Now that alone is a great reason I wouldn't pick F13 over it. Now, they done two siblings that you can switch between to hunt survivors is insane. A lot more interesting outfits in the long run as well. The point is F13 may done a few things better.

At the same time, I can't deny it had problems that hunt me wanting to play it. Especially during online play is not a rememberable experience. Dead by Daylight has a lot of complexity within it's design, I love that. Honestly, Dead by Daylight is a game that forever changed the genre of horror games.

Not only that, if you already owned it on PS4 or Xbox One. You automatically own it with everything you have on PS5 or Xbox Series X or Series S models. There's more ways to earn blood points to help leveling your characters. The achievements kept getting competitive but also helps you get better at the game after getting crossplay feature.
