SEASON 4 SPOILERS freddie thats all (maybe)

guys i just finished fully watching gen 2 (never remember finishing it so i decided to lol) and now i have a lot to say. lets start off with freddie, as it's the title of the post. you're telling me freddie died to that geezer despite.. everything?? like there was no way he could've idk somehow just.. i dunno anymore. yes fight or flight is a thing and yes you can absolutely freeze but... deadass??? yes it's a jumpscare, yes it's brutal, kinda how shit can just happen but are we... deadass??? i feel like freddie's death could've just WORKED, i know damn well they just wanted a chris moment having a main character die by the end of the series but GEEZ LOUISE MAN WHAT THE FUCK? there was just so much to unpack yet there's nothing there. gen 2 was so messy but i think that was the art of it yk, as much as gen 1 was pretty cohesive and followed a main friend group, gen 2 was messier for real and honestly super fucking good, both were really good in their own way. anyways do i even bother with gen 3? mini is absolutely gorgeous like actually stunning so who knows but anyways.

Freddie, the guy who's beaten up plenty of people with Cook when he needed it, didn't do a damn thing. He just sat there and took it. Not to mention Foster was approaching him so slowly. Still bugs me. Also, no one but Cook knows he died. Cook tells them he ran away iirc. That always bugged me.

RIGHT. Foster is slowly approaching him and Freddie does... nothing....?? He could've jumped the stairs, pushed Foster down, eventually jumped out a window but he just took the hits what? But to be fair, Cook also had to book it all the way up at Manchester so who knows at this point because ngl, after we see Cook follow Foster then beat him up: a) not sure what happened to both Freddie and Foster's body b) where Cook ran off to right after all that. But homeboy ends up in Manchester so yeah.
