Things I think are bad choices for DBD

Surely you could argue that a lot of lore is silly if you look at it with a bad-faith lens?

A guy wearing a Halloween mask and holding a knife doesn't sound particularly scary. A guy with pins sticking out of his face sounds downright comical. A lady wearing a pig's head like a mask just sounds impractical.

I'd certainly agree there are some licenses that should happen before FNaF, especially if there really is a limited number of slots, but people don't often argue that point. They argue that FNaF wouldn't fit period, and that's just not true.

Everyone else who isn't 12 hates him 😂😂 that's just an exaggeration mate.

I still maintain that the series will become iconic. The movie that is being made will have a massive impact on if it's a horror gaming icon, or a horror icon.

And Left 4 Dead beat Silent Hill to it.

No I'm pretty sure it's still in development

The problem with any "iconic" killer is they are traditional these unstoppable powerful juggernauts.

Unfortunately dbd turns them all into impotent caricatures, prone to being easily stunned by wood and torches.

So killers like Nemesis, PinHead, Michael Myers, Freddy, and Pyramid Head become shadows of their origin, and a joke.

Take this ring chapter? Seems cool until you realise they have to make the killer a poundshop betamax version of the original in the name of "ahem" ""balance"".

I could agree that Jack Torrence himself probably wouldn't make for an incredibly interesting DbD killer (besides adding one who wields a fire axe, which we don't have yet), but the Overlook Hotel would be a pretty cool set piece for a map.

Heck, they could even just add a few extra maps to the Ormond realm inspired by the hotel and its outdoor maze.

Patrick Bateman couldn't work. He doesn't have a "signature style" and is literally an insane person. Especially if he were to be based off his movie adaptation.

I'd honestly ADORE a Bloodborne chaper. Killer could be Father Gascoigne, a human that has his axe, but his power could be the beast transformation, giving him some new abilities (similar to the oni but just not giving it billy's skill set)

Skins are not a full killer, so people citing Mr. Puddles and the Legion mascot skins as examples to justify Springtrap is a big swing and a miss.

And yes, I am busted, I never played much FNAF. But I have seen all of the games played through (except the new one, which is by all accounts a steaming pile), and been subjected to more Markiplier fnaf vids than anyone should ever have to be. So I am familiar.

One common trap people fall into is the inability to wrap their head around the notion that someone could be familiar with a thing that they love, but hate it. Believe it or not, but people can know a ton about fnaf and still not be able to take it seriously.

A what constitutes "deep" is subjective, and I think fnaf is as deep as the kiddie pool. I promise you that what seems deep or profound changes as you age, though that can get clouded by nostalgia (see Star Wars).

But if Springtrap ends up in the game, I'll live. I won't buy him, and will actively cringe when I go against him, but I'll keep on keeping on.

My opposition is mostly based in my belief that there are many, many more deserving options out there.

But trying to set my biases aside, I just don't think it will happen, for reasons outside of those argued about here.

I never said fnaf deserves to be in Dbd more then any other ip I just don't think it's fair to brand fnaf as stuff for kids and to say adults can't like it i think every ip has the same right to get a place in Dbd and none is superior over the other just because one is older or some one thinks the horror is better. For me personally I am existing for ringu and if I had a say in it we would get alien asap and then it

And active antagonism like this will keep them from ever accepting FNAF.

A lot of people here don't like FNAF less because of the games and more because of the fans as when FNAF first came up as a suggestion people were generally accepting of it.

But then when spring trap wasn't the next killer/anniversary killer FNAF fans lost their minds and began to spam both the forums(Not just this one) plus forum users. This caused a lot of people to not want FNAF.

TLDR: FNAF fans have a long history of antagonizing the DbD playerbase that a lot of them just want FNAF gone.
