Jason and Springtrap
After seeing Jasons powers I came to a conclusion that he is just overpowered Springtrap.
I know they work differently, but at the same time they are not that different from each other.
Looking at the ability without addons Springtrap has doors that he has to guess where survivors are, and there is low chance to getting to someone. And people know when you come out looking at the number panel.
For Jason every single 'vaultable' object is his 'door' and he sees if survivors are nearby, so there is no guessing and you instantly are 'in game' after manifesting. (fog does nothing if you still can see where survivors are going)
Springtraps axe is 'heavy' so it has low range and flies slowly.
Jasons projectile is too fast to even react (you have to guess when he throws to be able to dodge)
As Springtrap you have to come close to grab someone with axe inbeded in them.
Jason can impale survivors from really far away and prevent them from moving.
Springtrap can reclaim his axe after some time.
Jason doesn't have to wait, he just has to use the ocasion while chasing to 'grab' another projectile.
If survivors would try to avoid those trash piles and hooks, they would just end the chase themselves running into corners.
Springtrap has a bonus for insta grabbing survivors in the office, but noone uses them, so it really does nothing.
Am I the only one thinking that Springtrap will be just forgotten because of Jason?
Comments
I dont really think most people played springtrap because he was somewhat good ,i think they played him just because he is springtrap and they probably love the character,so i dont think he will be forgotten just because a stronger version of him appeared.
Forgotten no, but he's the most popular licensed killer with the most popular chapter of the game, he's good the axe is nearly perfect but he lacks proper survivors counter gameplay, I even think he should get a new ability for when he's axeless and have himself a little more mechanics and not just having him aim/throw/recal an axe and just use doors for himself.
I made another comment about a concept rework for both springtrap and survivors gameplay
he is just upgraded springtrap but i think springtrap is better than jason by a mile since at least springtrap doesn,'t nerf himself to get his axe his pole cooldowns are way too long and the different don't matter besides the hook spear and he's 110 so if you miss your spike good luxk
They need to give springtrap more of his own flare like how when dracula released and he powercrept lich. Both should be good at their own things. Id like them to lean into more springtraps stealth because he is the jumpscare killer. Make his footsteps and audio a lot quieter because it makes his stealth kinda a meme without glitchtrap. And probably remove the door glitch warning because if Jason can appear right next to you why does springtrap give you 10 business days to gain distance removing the point of the warp? Also just one id love to see. Have the jumpscare animation play on grabs off gens and survivors instead of a normal grab animation. Imagine working on something and you just have your camera forced to the side as he jumpscares you.
