I would personally be fine with Slenderman being in the game, but KingIsaacLinker has a good point. It's not worth the hate that would ensue from rabid internet nonsense-talkers.
I can already tell this is going to be a roller coaster ride of disappointment.

Hell, if you put in-game nods to the SCP source material for the character and some of the other media that's used the character a lot of the fans of him would probably get a kick out of it.

Also, Slender != Slenderman and by forging unique lore and behavior for the character in game the differences would speak for themselves.

Outside of that, yeah, haters gonna hate.

Yeah, the more I think about it less annoyed I am about Slender as a boss.

It's less that I thought it was sacred belonging to the Slender game, and more an annoyance at the fanboyism there ;)

Whoever it was that said people will either love that he's there, or hate that it was "stolen" probably has it about right. Which will it be? I couldn't say.

It will vary from person to person... :p

Glad to see Giant Enemy Crab is in there as well.  :)

I can't wait to see its critical weak point!
Life is short. Have fun.

To be fair though, those haters would just find something ELSE to hate on, because that's about all they're good at.

Even Slenderman himself, as I heard, is apparently not quite that original either;  appears to be greatly inspired by Cabadath, of the Chzo Mythos games (specifically, the third and fourth games).  Take one look at that character, and you'll instantly see what I mean.


Having "Slender" in the game here seems fine by me.  I think he might fit pretty well, particularly if he can do stuff like vanish and teleport around or something.



Also, that owl there..... he REALLY just doesnt give a crap, does he?

We're really gonna have to do something special with the owl now I'm thinking. Make him an apathetic hint system?

Apathetic ice cream koan hint system?
If he's going to bother helping us, he might as well be as unhelpful as possible about it. He's technically an enemy after all ;)
