Why Baldi from Baldi's Basics is a better candidate for killer than Springtrap from FNAF

Except you completely overlooked the fact that Silent Hill much like Dead By Daylight, is a completely different kind of horror game from Fnaf. You're right it uses fixed camera angles in order to benefit it's horror atmosphere and heighten the tension in the game in a very similar way that fnaf does. However this is about where the similarities between the two end without making broad general statements like "they're both scary".

In Silent Hill 2 you play an active role as the character of James Sunderland, he can move around evading the various Dangers in the Fog covered town of Silent Hill, he has access to multiple different kinds of weapons in order to fight back like Guns and your classic 4 x 4 plank of wood. Pyramid Head as an antagonist functions the same way, he's a clear threatening presence that you can very obviously see whenever he's coming for you and nonetheless that he still remains a very intimidating and imposing figure as he lumbers toward you with malicious intent.

In this way, Silent Hill 2 (& 3, which plays basically the same as the second game) is far more similar to Dead By Daylight than it ever would be to any individual title in the entire Fnaf franchise. You play as an average everyday character in a supernatural setting posed against supernatural odds, rather than an average everyday character in a grounded setting posed against supernatural odds. You play an active role in both titles, actively running, hiding, and sometimes fighting back against the dangers you're up against to survive, rather than a passive role where you're forced to act defensively in an idle position which you can do nothing about. The antagonists in both DBD and SH are both clear and obvious threats to your life, plain and simple hunting you down approaching you very linearly walking or running towards you, rather than having obscure movement patterns meant to illustrate how unnatural the situation you're placed in is. etc. so on and so forth

I don't want to drone on all day but these are the primary reasons that diverge a game like Silent Hill from Five Night's At Freddy's, Silent Hill much like Dead By Daylight is fundamentally a different experience than Five Night's and for that reason it is fundamentally fitting to include it as another chapter in Dead By Daylight. Much like other similar titles like Outlast, The Evil Within, etc. all horror games and video game licenses that share enough qualities and characteristics with Dead By Daylight to warrant considering their inclusion. Five Night's at Freddy's, plain and simply, does not.

Not to mention, even if that point was true it's still a very small comparison that has no bearing on multiple of the points I brought up in my original post.

It's not taken out of context in the slightest, and I think you misunderstand me. I'm not saying that mark is directly saying any of the points I mentioned, he obviously doesn't talk about Dead By Daylight at all (though I'm fairly certain he did a video on the game a long time ago in the past).

What I am doing however, is taking his quotes, things that he said about the franchise as someone who is so experienced with it, and has played all the games, up to their most difficult potential, and done it for years, I'm taking his words describing the first game and by extension the franchise as a whole, and using those quotes to extrapolate a message from them. That message being, why Fnaf should not be in Dead By Daylight. In short: because they are fundamentally different experiences that don't fit together in multiple aspects - from gameplay, to theme, to the different elements of horror that are employed in either title, etc.

I don't think there's anything wrong with that, and for the matter I don't believe that's taking anything out of context at all. I am simply taking the context of his video, his comments on it, and applying them to the context of our current conversation. It was you who decided to post the video after all to try and use it as some kind of proof for why Fnaf should be in the game, therefore it's just as much fair game for me to swoop in and say "no, this proves the opposite". Whether you agree with that or not is none of my concern.

I won't comment on the entirety of your thread as I still believe my original post stands and speaks for itself, however I will address this:

"Any movie, TV show, or videogame doesn't necessarily have to line up with DBD's style"

as probably your most valid and truthful statement. It's something I can't necessarily refute or deny and yet I still can't quite completely agree with it fully. There's a decently large leap that you make from going to the licenses in Dead By Daylight, vs. Fnaf it's a title that I think stands too far out of the realm within which Dead By Daylight as a horror experience and video game title operates in. But I do recognize the validity of your point.

However even if it wasn't a factor, at the end of the day there is simply a cultural difference between the fanbase of fnaf and the fanbase of Dead By Daylight which is something you'd be hard pressed to prove wrong. So as for things like this:

"People will request it until the day it gets in"

An equal if not greater number of people will request it not get in. I've said this once and I'll say it again, for every person that wants Fnaf in Dead By Daylight there are maybe three that don't. As active and lively as the movement to integrate fnaf into the game is, there is an equally active and lively if not greater presence of people who do not want to see it in the game.

Finally:

"With both, BHVR and Scott Cawthon being aware about the demand, I wouldn't exactly say its unlikely."

BHVR has hardly commented on the notion, but this is because they are notoriously secretive about plans regarding upcoming chapters. BHVR may be aware of a number of loud individuals who have been crying out to see fuzzy animatronics in their game, but they are also aware of the players who have been asking for reputable and recognizable characters like Pennywise, Jason, The Xenomorph, Pinhead, Candyman, etc. requests that have been ongoing for years and all of a sudden a relatively small group of people are going to cut in line on chapters that would be far more profitable? I don't think so.

As for Scott Cawthon he has not commented on the idea at all and for all I know, sure, maybe he's entirely on board and actually pushing for it to happen. But on the flip side for all you know he is more than actively against the idea of anyone that's not him laying their hands on his own creative property, the most successful thing in his career and he doesn't want to corrupt his own vision or the players vision of his games by letting someone else handle them.

Obviously BHVR is a successful and trustworthy company and the devs have more than proven their dedication to abiding as much as possible to the source material, but for all we know Cawthon could still get very antsy at the mere notion.

Thanks, yeah these posts can sometimes take some time I was actually just barely able to squeeze that one out before I had to quickly move on to do other things.

He was always a pedo.... Also the version of our Freddy is the one burned down in the factory
