Hate towards a FNaF Chapter
With all the FNaF Chapter ideas/requests popping up, there, of course, comes hate with it.
But why?
The community? You meant he community that grew up now? And even if there are these people you consider 'cringe children', where would you see them? You won't even play with them in matches if you're good enough. The forums have mods, same with the discord.
Springtrap wouldn't fit? He fits aesthetically just fine, just little tweaks here and there to make him fit the style of DbD even more. 'But he's dead'... Spirit is also. There are the games and there are the novels both in different universes to say it simple. A FNaF Chapter based on the novels could give us Springtrap, 1/more survivors and a map. And with the new FNaF game coming up we would even have another solid killer option next to Springtrap. Vanny as the killer, a female (night-)guard if she is going to important and a 80s styled mall as the map.
All in all, that'd just mean more content, more players and more money for BHVR. You wouldn't even notice the children you talk about. Same could have been said for Stranger Things.
I feel like the most just go with the mass without even doing research and copy whatever the mass says.

There are many discussions on here about this topic and it comes down to personal preference

I find it funny everyone just links FnaF to kids just because it was pretty popular with them. I guarantee there are far more adults that enjoyed the game than just kids, the same with the usual Minecraft and Fortnite arguments. I won't deny that FnaF does attract more younger audiences but I don't see the issue. FnaF being in DbD would bring a new playerbase, thus increasing numbers and more profit for the devs. But, these days, it's more fun to jump on the wagon of hate than actually form an original opinion

I think the hate comes from overexposition, I didnt care about FNAF but all these threads non stop are starting to tire me.
Its like the My Little Pony craze years ago, I didnt care about it either, didnt interest me but didnt have any qualms for people enjoying it, suddenly internet forums were swarmed with images, threads, fanarts, fanfics etc, all that forced spam started to wear me down and slowly evolved into open hate for the series.

Well the thing is for Stranger things it became more for adult audiences later on as the seasons got darker but I get what your saying and honestly I wouldn't mind seeing Fnaf come to DBD I just don't want to see a full blown chapter though, as cool as it sounds I just don't see how it could work with a survivor, and yes CHarlie would fit the role but I'm not sure if the novels are in fact canon. Plus you'll need a map and I don't think the resturant will fit because its way too small. But its an interesting idea nonetheless, I just want to see a paragraph and that's it.

FNAF its a game series where you literally press some buttons to avoid some jumpscare gifs to pop up with an super loud noise
The character designs are kind of original I give that to the creator but other then that is a bad franchise and it shouldn't have a place in dbd

Like I said on other threads, maps could be similar to haddonfield/springwood (styled not gameplay) or a unique mall map. Charlie wouldn't fit as she is a robot. Her friends make sense to be survivors though. Springtrap could be the killer of this chapter aswell, they'd also have more freedom as novel Springtrap doesn't have a set design. Just make it based on the novel trilogy.
And like said above with the new coming up we have a new killer option, Vanny, a potential survivor and a 80s styled mall map. That FNaF Chapter would be based on the games then.
1 -
Probably because they didn't like the game or the audience that was attracted to it. It was a cheaply made jumpscare game that went viral, there are TONS of them out there on steam. It would make more sense to import the monster from Amnesia, rather than this or something like a Minecraft Creeper. DBD is just more mature/dark/edgy
4 -
FNaF isn't mature/dark/edgy? I mean yeah, the gameplay isn't but look beyond that. Look beyond the games even.
2 -
Yeah I get that Fnaf does feel like it is for younger audiences but at times it can get so dark to the point its for adults, so there's that.
3 -
I have no words... most delusional thing i've ever heard.
11 -
I wouldn't mind, to me it's another Killer i can try out.
But i definitely wouldn't be excited, there's bigger names i just know i'd like more than a robot wearing a fur suit.
8 -
I have no idea what it is. From what I can piece together from what people are saying it sounds like crap.
4 -
I think the "hate" would slow down a bit, if people would discuss in already existing topics instead of creating a new FNAF post every day. I mean, there is a search function for this forum. (This goes for other frequent topics, too)
We already have enough licensed stuff and I prefer the original stuff from behaviour. But if a FNAF chapter is well done, I'm not against it.
8 -
Okay. Yeah, that sounds like crap.
4 -
the games already been pretty censored by the devs themselves, this game coule be WAY more brutal. also, its already been tried and failed:
1 -
Why ? It's a lame kids game.
I'm 38 and grew up on horror. I'm allowed to not be interested in things as you are also.
Did this bs even need yet another thread?
I get it you little kids who grew up with that lazy game want it kewl kewl. Me I do not and would rather it never came and if it does I can't just ignore it and I be forced to play the content even if I do not buy said dlc.
So yeah I guess I would just stop supporting and playing the game. Please don't add that cheese garbage fan base here. It's bad enough i have to seen these plebs make threads about that dumpster fire game.
8 -
Yeah... 38 sure. Insulting a fan base isn't that mature, and here news for you: Not everyone in the fanbase is a child.
6 -
I'd say multiple posts being made about it are increasing the hate. Be nice if the mods could just merge them all.

try and fail again

It seen as a kids game because FNAF became popular on the back on a massive league of loud mouth, "hey fellow children" attempting, stale and massively oversaturated and frankly pewdiepie fame chasing wannabe youtubers who generally as a rule tend to have a massive amount of children of following them. Not because they are instrinctly for children but because the current generation for some reason buy their kids tablets and phones and shuffle them off to the corner to be distracted with absolutely no parental supervision or even app blocks. They go on youtube and they almost always come across FNAF where they are FAR below the age range they should be exposed to it-like I've seen toddlers with understanding and consistent knowledge of fnaf. No joke-via these guys because playthroughs are the new thing.
It's a stale series that made use of limited mechanics and art style to get effective jump scares and people rightly praised it at the time for that and the original FNAF still deserve praise for basically turning nothing into a relatively good game. The game wasn't just a jumpscare fest...it was an entire game about WAITING for that jumpscare which is waaaaay more thought and design that any jumpscare in movie and games normally get. But between markiplier clone 5503 or whatever bot screaming at me "HEY FELLOW FEARFANS HERES FNAF episode 20!" it got tired.
Combine this with a considerable fan surge and the creator going absolutely raving mad and releasing a new game within months of each other because they were so easy to create and having no concept that some things should have pacing. Which is ironic because his entire game best part is the waiting part. You get an audience that might of enjoyed it...even loved it...basically have every factor of the franchise push it around them to the point it became unbearable.
It was like MLP on steroid but MLP was CONSTANTLY making new content that diverged in different ways and it was ONLY their fans. The show itself didn't rush episodes out like lunatics and basically have loud video game evangelist spamming youtube with playthroughs.
that's why FNAF is seen for kids and why it's seen as annoying and dead. Even the creator got crap for rush releasing FNAF too quickly when he tried to release that awful fnaf rpg or whatever it was called and he literally admitted he was ashamed he charged money for it. The youtubers are loud and use catch phrases and eventually attract kids...the creator powers it through even more with spam releases...then finally sell dolls and bears of these characters to kids.
If FNAF fans are upset about their image as for children and dried out then they should all turns heads to the mastermind behind fnaf to begin with.
also this board is getting overlumbered with FNAF calls.

I honestly don't understand all this interest in FnaF (both love and hate). From what I've seen it's just a game to play one night with friends for jumpscares and laughs, kinda like Slenderman. It's nowhere near important/iconic as L4D or Silent Hill. Also the design is kinda meh.
5 -
Who would the killer even be? A slightly menacing teddy bear?
Who would the survivor be? A security camera?
4 -
Oh my lord , seriosly answer me this, WHO THE (BAD WORD) WOULD A CHILD PLAY THIS GAME?
2 -
The argument that stranger things doesnt fit its stupid. Stranger things like dbd its a love letter to old slasher movies that a bunch of the playerbase loves. Fnaf is a jumpscare game with "deepest lore" on par with slenderman/jeff the killer.
Idc if they add freddy or whoever u want in the game but you have to understand, there is people that wont find cute animatronics screaming their thing.
Also when people say fnaf is cringy is not about the children that loves the series its the tone/design of the games
4 -
What really annoys me is it seem like a small group of FNAF fans got together and decided to coordinate a bunch of pro FNAF posts on the forum. There was one post about it every so often and then in the past few days it's all over the damn front page. It should be in OFF TOPIC.
But, as others have said, they are not good games. There are so many better games and movies and hell even books or TV shows that I would rather see the devs spend money on than FNAF.

Man, I'd be fine with Springtrap being added into DBD, but I don't get why there are so many of these threads. It's a popular subject so I responded to a decent amount of them, but there's so many of these and it's sort of odd. I'm all for if you want or don't want him, but please just give actual content to show and talk about while doing so and make this less of an endless cycle of:
They should add Springtrap.
No, that's cringe.
People should really only be talking about this now whenever they might want to share a concept or objectively give a sort of essay on why or why not they should be added. I'm sick of seeing these threads of the same exact things. I think BHVR gets the memo that some people want FNaF and some people don't, can we stop with these threads?
3 -
Yes, books. I want the dark tower books instead of the flaming pile of garbage, that is five nights at Freddy's.
3 -
My general opinion is that while yes the comunity itself may have grown up but the franchise is still being marketed towards kids by youtubers and like others said we really dont need more toxicity in this comunity and i would just want more original chapters because this comunity has some amazing concepts.
1 -
Don't like the answer don't ask the question.
Cherry picking your replies is a bad look.
5 -
K ? Really do not care for them or for you or the op. They asked why the hate and I responded.
1 -
THANK YOU! They act like adding something offensively stupid to the game doesn't demean the game in the slightest. Sorry, we don't want Siren head, nor Slender man, nor Jeff the killer.
It's not rocket science and the idea behind the argument won't change, even it it doesn't jibe with everyone who wants to keep some peace and be nice about it. I'm just saying, as this guy is, the game WOULD lose player base over that decision, but again BHVR could do what they want.

At this point, it's becoming increasingly apparent who dislikes FNaF after giving it a fair experience, and who is just bandwagoning hate. I've already presented all of my evidence based reasoning, only to be met with comments full of ignorance. That's not saying the idea doesn't have it's fair share of supporters too, but I guess it's a lot easier to say "No" and move on then to actually give FNaF a fair chance (god forbid).
That being said, my stance on the situation should already be clear: I would like to see a FNaF chapter in DbD some day, whether its the next chapter, or 5 chapters down the road.
1 -
Well obviously. When you explain things in a negative light they sound #########.
Like.
"Halloween is a movie where a guy with a knife kills people, there's several parts of the movie where the killer just stands there and doesn't do anything."
Now, assuming you watched halloween, this description is not wrong. But it is dishonest. I'm trying to make it sound bad.
So, let me give you another description of fnaf.
It is a resource management game. You have limited power and must survive 5 nights while killer animatronics make their way towards you. They all behave differently and you must learn the best method to deal with each of them. If yoy run out of power or can't deal with 1 of them, you die.
Now... doesn't that sound much better than "you press m1 in a room"?
This is the very first game, more stuff is added in later games.
The games are basically 1 dollar each on steam right now if you wanna check them for yourself. (And you should, before deciding on what you think of them)

The real children here are the self centered brats who think something they don't like but CLEARLY has a mass appeal shouldn't be added.
1 -
Mass appeal ? Hahaha no. Prove it ?
Spamming the forum with these kiddy threads is not mass appeal, if you and your entitled kid brigade want to turn dbd into a fluffy bubblegum clown shoe style game by all means convince the devs to add it.
I personally would not stick around if they ever do.
You are allowed to have an opinion and so am I.

If I may ask, (I’m new here. Just signed up yesterday) where did these sudden FNaF speculations come from? Was something teased by the FNaF creator?

This doesn't make you look clever. On the contrary, it makes you look ignorant. It makes it seem like you have absolutely no clue what FNAF is about to figure this out on your own, and even after having Springtrap suggested time and time again by others, you still can't figure out who the wanted killer would be.
Stranger Things is nothing like old slasher movies. It's almost pure action/sci fi. It barely even qualifies as horror. That being said, I have absolutely no problem with Stranger Things being added to DbD because I'm not so self centered that I think my personal judgement of horror should be reason to stop characters being added to DbD so that other people can enjoy them.
Also, the lore in FNAF is a lot more complex than the lore in Stranger Things. The problem is that genius of FNAF's lore is that you have to do deductive work and research in order to figure it out so people that like puzzle solving love the lore's complexity. Meanwhile people who lack the intellect required to put effort in to understand something also tend to be lacking the intellect to realize that they don't understand what they clearly don't understand. Then they proceed to go make ignorant comments in their arrogance.
There's a petition with over 8000 added saying they want FNAF added to the game and you know it. But you're so blatantly biased and close minded that you can look straight at that and say "No, not possible. Must be fake." If you want proof, stop shoving your fingers in your ear and screaming "no no no no no" at everything that proves it.

im not trying to be rude here just because there is a petiton it dosent me the devs will add it. personally i want more original characters rather than more licensed characters (unless its clem cause shes the best)
3 -
Yep.. Not reading all that dribble nor do I care to keep going.
I said what I had to say and that's it.
Padded numbers on a petition that means nothing and will do nothing ever is laughable.
If that is your proof you should Google the outcome of past video game petitions and see how those ended up.
3 -
This is a petition for Springtrap as a New killer in DbD, almost 8,500 people signed it. U know why?
Beacouse if u dont want fnaf chapter (paragraph) it wont Change the game for u, but for someone who wants it will make the game better and more interesting. So that's why we really want him in game.
0 -
I don't have hate against it but the game looks like crap. Including Springtrap. He could be fun to play, depending on his powers.

This post is kinda sad tbh.
I pray u get what u want, in the meantime try to tone down the spam and copypasta threads/comments

Boring "killer" and design. I'd rather a killer who is actually scary not only on design but function.
