HOW EXCITED WOULD YOU BE FOR THIS KILLER? - DAY 6: SPRINGTRAP

Who cares, I just want a fun killer power and decent perks.

I like that this poll option perfectly expresses my thoughts and feelings on the possibility.

Undoubtedly would be one of, if not the worst choice to be added as far as licenses go, I don't buy into the fnaf fad / trend, I think it's a decent story on it's own independent from Dead By Daylight but I'm not a fan of the gameplay it offers nor of the idea of actually having any of those characters implemented into Dead By Daylight's gameplay.

I maintain that Fnaf is just a higher quality Creepypasta. As it stands- easily spread "horror" stories (creepypastas) through the internet like Jeff the Killer, Slenderman, Sonic.EXE, etc. are all a joke and these spawns of Internet Culture do not match or fit the tone of Dead By Daylight in any way. Dead By Daylight being more of a tribute to the original slashers that grew in popularity throughout the 60's up to the late 90's, it's only right about now 20 years later that interest seems to have been revived in this sub-genre and Dead By Daylight is a contributing factor to that.

I understand that Dead By Daylight is looking to eventually branch out beyond these roots, I am more than well aware of the fact. However, considering the distinct lack of immensely popular characters and vastly more appealing alternatives like Jason Voorhees, The Xenomorph, Pennywise, Candyman, Pinhead, The Predator, Chucky, and even lesser considered characters like The Thing, The T-1000 Terminator, or The Miner from My Bloody Valentine, I can't see myself ever accepting the possibility of Fnaf until a decent chunk of these characters have made it in.

People continue to say that "eventually we'll run out of those cool licensed characters" but think about it, Dead By Daylight only releases some 4 chapters a year. The characters I listed alone by themselves would account for more than 2 years worth of content by themselves, and this is not mentioning the fact that BHVR releases their own original characters and concepts as well and they do a hell of a job of it. More often than not they release more original chapters than licensed chapters, so the list I provided could honestly easily be stretched to well over 4 years of content if they released just two original chapters every year. If even that, because we know for a fact that BHVR has no qualms about releasing original chapters back-to-back-to-back-to-back (chapters 8-11 were all original chapters [Curtain Call, Shattered Bloodline, Darkness Among Us, Demise of the Faithful]).

You think that far into the future, are we all still going to be playing Dead By Daylight in four years? I mean maybe, there's a part of me that kind of likes to think so, all kinds of gaming communities have the potential to last for incredible amounts of time and still be going strong- League, TF2, literally Left 4 Dead 2 is getting a brand new major expansion after 10 years. So it's entirely possible. But then again, if that's the case there's no need for a character like Springtrap until well beyond into the future.

At which point in time, maybe I will have changed my mind- until then, no.

I do really like this answer though. I can respect this opinion ^

It's entirely possible that my mind will be changed much sooner than I expect, only time will tell.

One of the most notable horror franchises of the past decade, regardless of the quality of the games (all mediocre except for Pizza Sim, which is actually pretty enjoyable), and a design I personally enjoy. I'd rather see other classic characters first, but seeing Springtrap would make some of my mates buy the game, which would make me happy since I'd now have more people to play with

Yes

I should be more upset at the thought of Michael Myers and FNAF characters shaking hands. I just don't care anymore.

A Springtrap/FNAF chapter is my most wanted chapter, second being a Bioshock chapter with a Big Daddy as the killer.

I personally believe that Springtrap would fit easily into Dead by Daylight and they could do so many interesting things with him.

He is a sick and twisted child murderer turned reanimated corpse within a spring-lock suit. I think it would make sense if the Entity claimed him.
