Five Nights at Freddy's Megathread [FNAF4 released early as usual.]

[Macgyverthehero]

I found some unusually cute fan art for this game:

Spoiler below!

Makes me want to hug foxy now.

The first night was eez but the second one made me smash my keyboard. I checked all cameras and was like "no animatronics in sight... that's good. Oh wait that's NOT good!" and the fucker was right in front of me, screaming. fuck that game

[MrBehemoth]

Having not played the game, it might be hasty of me to offer an opinion, but due to all the hype it has recieved, I can't help but have one. Call me contrary, but the more I see/hear of it, the less I want to play it.

Aside from the fact that, having watched a vid of the first night and then the fox, I doubt it's got any mote tricks up its sleeve, it just doesn't grab me. There's no room for story-telling or emergent narrative and I have no vested interest in the protagonist or setting and no sense of horror when the animatronics inevitably come to life. Robots aren't scary, furry ones less so. Sorry to be harsh but it's basically PowerPoint with screamers.

I'm not saying this to criticise the game, it is what it is and it does what it does well, I just honestly don't see why everyone with an interest in indie horror is so excited about it.

I can understand why some people might not like this game, but I don't believe this game actually has "screamers."

Screamers are supposed to be unexpected in places where it is not supposed to be scary (e.g Maze Game.) In Five Night's at Freddy's the game is meant to be scary, so instead of screamer status, it's just meant to be a jumpscare for failing.

Not sure if this is fake or not but apparently there's a dog robot which appears if you stare at the workshop on Night 2 without stopping

I haven't tried myself yet, but if you read from the bottom to top of the above page it explains a lot

The first two sentences to me look like a poorly written creepypasta.

Yeah, this looks like a BEN Drowned wanna-be.

Yup. Though it seems like it could be real, honestly, because it's such a small thing, but it reads like a creepypasta.

I heard somebody on Facepunch managed to get into the files of the game but there's nothing containing a dog enemy and image is said to be fake or something like that also "my blog has been taken over by this dog and im done with it. "

[Newsman Waterpaper]

At least the Ben Drowned story had some believability unless you know difference of a game running on actual N64 or a N64 Emulator.

I hear that the creator of FNAF is making sequel,I wonder if going to take place in the same place or a Freddy Fazbear theme park(to me it's logical step for a sequel to this game).

Could you link to the Facepunch thing? I was searching for stuff about it all night and couldn't find anything
