>franchise you used to hate because it was popular to hate, but then later realized was kinoWe all have one, name it.
>>729834451What's the appeal of this game?
>>729834451toddslop is incredible when you dont listen to video essay making fags
>>729834451I don't have one because I don't hate things for that reason.
>>729834604Porn
>>729834451Care to explain, OP? I can accept the first 2 Fnaf games might be secret kino but no fucking way the ugly glamrock coomerbait modern shit is kino at all For me it's Deltarune I assumed it was gay Undertroon shit and it kinda is but I enjoyed playing it and the /v/ threads are fun
>>729834726You fucking retard
>>729835160The scott games only 1-UCN are all kino.Past that is w/e.
>>729834604you just had to be there
>>729835874I was there. I tried it. It was fucking gay. Chuck cheese animatronics are not scary. Of course, I'm not a zoomer, so I'm not retarded. The queerest and brownest generation of all time even thinks Mario 64 is 'scary'. Go fucking figure.

>>729834604>first game came out at a time when indie horror was even worse than it is today, and was a perfect example of how a skilled designer can make a great game on a low budget with old tech. >it was visually striking, and the gameplay lent itself well to both short clips and full playthroughs, so it spread everywhere once people realized it wasn't just another generic slender/outlast clone.>the rapid release schedule and easter eggs/background mystery kept up interest TLDR Scott made a good game
Why play the gay version?
>>729838324don't forget the amount of fangames, some even creating their own little subcommunities like treasure island and wario's.
>>729834451Halo. I used to hate Halo with a burning passion in middle school because I was a huge Nintendo fanboy and I thought FPS games were evil or some shit.
>>729839662Halo is a funny one. It was hated by both Nintendo fans for being a military FPS, and "hardcore" FPS fags because they automatically despise literally any shooter that's not Duke 3D or Quake.
>>729834451Maybe, maybe just fnaf. Mostly because of the chill /v/ threads
Hated Poppy Playtime for all the controversies at launch, now I'm keeping up with the lore and developments like a mad man
>>729840943>and "hardcore" FPS fags because they automatically despise literally any shooter that's not Duke 3D or Quake.No, they hate any shooter that's made for consoles. But Goldeneye gets a pass for some weird reason.
>>729834653It's never been popular to hate Fallout 3 or Bethesda shit in general, it's always been normalfag garbage that appeals to the dumbest consumers imaginable
>>729834451Unironically Xenoblade. I used to just hate JRPGs outside of the mario ones but ive been playing megaten games for a whole, some final fantasy here and there, and I picked up all the xenoblade games and DLC on sale because ive secretly been morbidly curious about them for yearsAlso>I got into fnaf right before it blew up so I didnt get the chance to hate it because of the shitass fansWish I had listened about undertale, but I just kept putting it off, ive played it and some of deltarune, I guess theyre fine but like I dunno
>>729839064The fangames have produced better stuff than the actual series at this point. FNAC Remastered is better than any of the FNAF games and Treasure Island 2020 might be the best game in this style. It's a shame the fanverse thing has been such a disaster because Scott actually funding some of these projects sounded like a great idea initially.
>>729839064Fan games are unironically kino. Ive taken a break from my commercial indie project to work on a fnaf fan game after being hit with a really fun idea.
>>729841649Radiance's Chuck E Cheese is scarier than any mainline fnaf game could ever be since they focused on accurately capturing the portrait era Pizza time Theater. Also the max mode is really cool, im a custom night Chad so I really enjoy fun max modes.
>>729838779my waifu
>>729841761TI2020 is the only FNAF-style game that's genuinely scared me since I was 12 or something, so that isn't hard to believe. They really nailed the sort of unease and dread that I think drew a lot of people into the first FNAF game which is something that Scott's work kind of lost over time and something most fangames can't quite get right.
>>729834451For me, it's OG Doom / II.I think I only hated it before because I was a console peasant at the time.
>>729842027>12youre making my feel old zoomer-chan. Anyway I still need to play TI2020 and its sequel. Wish rat race would come out, but it seems dead. There was also a really cool Pizzaria Sim fangame that was a tycoon with a tower defense mode for the night segments thats actually kino but its not finished yet.
anyone read the books? i heard silver eyes is good>>729835160nta but i don't think about the games past pizzeria simulator
>>729843053I read the trilogy. Silver eyes was fine, twisted ones was actually pretty great, but fourth closet was dumb as shit with the "Charlie was a robot this whole time!!!!" slop. Ruined theories forever, not that matpat needed any help over analyzing the wrong details.
>>729843053>>729843420Never EVER touch Fazbear's Frights or Tales
>>729843420Scott always liked the idea of robot children.>>729843647Flights is great.
>>729838779Do they still update that thing?
I actually find the gameplay in fnaf games pretty fun. I wish scott would make more
>>729843647I havent. I feel like the books are like biblical parables that aren't Canon to the actual story, some even seem like alt history shit. I played into the pit and that game was pretty neat but other than that I do not give a fuck about faz goo, sea Bonnie's, or matpat impreg
Nah, every series I've shit on has turned out to be absolute crap when I got a copy and gave it an honest shot. CoD was worse than I heard about, Far Cry memes were not memes, and Fortnite is absolute trash.
>>729843994it was just updated
>>729834451Sonic. I grew up when Youtubers like Arin from Game Grumps made it cool to shit on Sonic, but I went back to his older games and they're actually really fun.
>>729834604ipad kids being left unsupervised watching dumbass streamers for hours and hours on end
>>729838779Call me the purple guy cause imma put a child inside that animatronic.
>>729834451Touhou
>>729834451Certainly not this one.
>>729834451It became "kino" because zoomers that grew up with it are now adults posting about how nostalgic for it they are which overtook older discussions making it feel unnatural to push back against it when it was always effortless slop made to get a quick buck. Remember when it had 3 sequels in one fucking year?
>>729842027treasure island in general is just really fascinating as someone who's kind of been around the sphere since the olden times, there are some really good ones outside of TI but i don't think anything will surpass the novel you could make out of this photo negative vomit filled rodent.>all the shit that happened with the OG game like the teaser games, swapping to the purity sinners which replaced PNM with Willie causing even fucking slimebeast himself to get in beef, also the start of oblitus casa>bunch of fangames even while it was still being developed or after it's cancellation, helped by all the assets being dumped by anart himself (nightmare before disney being a big example even if the original version was cancelled)>photo negative mickey/malrat making a whole bunch of both sequel games and finished versions of the original game and nightmare before disney, accidentally causing people to think he was the creator>abandoned discovery island, if you know, you know (and it's still being worked on and even has a couple offshoots of its own so props)games like wario's, TRTF or tubbyland may have more inherent autism in their games, but treasure island's legacy is just so fascinating to dissect even today with radience's games and them being complete shitposters. even still pretty unique, i don't see many fangames go for a point and click section like pirate caverns.
>>7298351601-3 are the only good ones, 4 is ok, its the scariest but mostly because you have to turn your audio all the way up to play it so the jumpscares are extra loud. SL isnt night based and basically just a story game, it has its own custom night mode added after the fact but its mid, pizza sim is half fnaf game, half management sim with a shit ton of lore stuff shoved in there, worth a play i guess, UCN is literally just a big custom night with lore, its pretty much just for streamers and theorists, no reason to play it other than curiousity on how hard it is.
>>729850032>games are just pre-rendered models>scott is a professional animator by trade so he can quickly whip up models and environments>actually has time to come up with gameplay after the original game let him quit his job>he loves his fans so much he basically did not stop working for 4 years making small indie games that sold for at most 7.99 or released completely for freeFuck off kike. Scott Cawthon is a good man and a gigachad. He genuinely loves his fanbase and cant be bought.
>>729851689FNAF generally works best when it's more an arcade-like experience, SL onwards making the story even more of a focus was a pretty big misstep and now with the steel wool games the "same stage but it gradually gets harder" formula is just gone.had this idea in a previous thread but a sidemode that's the five nights (or even the 6th night as well) that has score for things like how much power you have left or being risky and waiting until the last moments before the enemy kills you to fend them off for a score bonus would be fun. maybe even bring back the lives counter that the original game threw out.
>>729841230All I see is a crossover between Coraline and Doom 2016.
>>729852234The original pitch for Security Breach was a lot more like Sir You are Being Hunted set inside a mall but it got cut down to the broken linear game because of massive technical incompetence.
>>729834604It was a game I played in a very tumultuous time in my life and obsessing over minor details and theorizing and consuming hours and hours of videos about it helped to distract me from it all. It's strange to think that the original trilogy all came out within a year of each other, looking back that time felt like five years altogether.
>>729852234moving the games towards generic horror games "run around this warehouse while scary monsters chase you!" was a bad choice. help wanted did it best purely because it forces you to be in one place, like the old fnafs, by virtue of being VR. steelwools insistance on shitty unity 3d models forces their games to forever be 6/10s at best.

>>729834653Just ignore the main story and it's pretty fun
>>729839064>>729842027As a Disney(land) adult, this looks kino. Which version is the one to get?
>>729834653its fun when you turn your brain off but when you look at the cracks aka story & world it really fucking shows
>Father, spring the trap.>Springtrap... I like that.
>>729853529there are so many different versions and games out there that it's kind of hard but a few i've enjoyed are>Treasure Island and Oblitus Casa (Radiance)the most recent official games (not counting shitposts or anniversary edition/abandoned enigma, though those are good too) and TI is getting another update but they're basically THE treasure island games.>Abandoned Discovery Island (Desko)i will say that there are quite a lot of visions for what the original game was gonna be before the cancellation from all earlier builds and this one is one of the better ones, still gets updated every now and then too. however due to being really old the few text cutscenes there are and the true ending are atrocious and i think newer versions will tell you that but aside from that it's a pretty good imagining.>Malrat collection (Malrat)this just kind of gets it's own spot because he did quite a lot of them. Let the Show Begin, his version of Nightmare Before Disney, Original Revamp, The End of Disney, and a couple others. he also did his own versions of the OG game with both how it looked in 1.0 and 2.0 if above is a little out there for you. a lot do have recodes if you don't want to deal with sometimes odd ai (i'd recommend the quadrilogy revision, though it's only done LTSB and OR fully) but it is a lot.>Nightmare Before Disney 2020 (Mr. Manatee)a remake of a 2015 fangame that got cancelled (outside of above that was just a fan revival), technically has two versions but Nightmares Before Disney is basically it's own thing and the 2020 version just shares a page.(Nightmare Before Disney (Stellawisps)what NBD basically ended up becoming, most of the enemies are different but it has generally the same genes.honestly i'm not even scratching the surface, there are so fucking many. thankfully some autist made a video on a bunch of them rather recently.>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3xnE0ww-8Q

>>729834451Among us. I hated it's popularity but years of forceful conditioning made me laugh at the memes. I don't play it though.
>>729834451>but then later realized was kinoSure did. Zoomers showed me the light, god bless them.
>>729834653>toddslop is incredible when you lobotomize yourselfI'm sure it is.
>>729834451FNAF 1 is unironically a good game, the rest of the series is shit and loses sight of what made it good, even 2
>>729834451>franchise you used to hate because it was popular to hate, but then later realized was kinoI honestly believe streamers ruin games the most. I always thought FNAF was lame because crying bitch ass niggas such as Markiplier diluted the experience.Actually, the series was good when I played it myself. It was them that were the problem. I can never tolerate streamers, they need to let these games breathe. 10 years ago, they were annoying. Nowadays, they're all just insufferable.
>>729834653>toddslop is incredible when you dont listen to video essay making fags
>>729855741This honestly.The atmosphere, designs and just the little tidbits of information the game gave you made it a nice little game. Then it went down the tubes by going full theoryslop.
>>729834451Far Cry 3+I will never understand FnaFfags though. If I ever have the unfortunate situation where I accidentally glance at a YouTube comment, it's disturbingly often some Fnafaggot very tangentially linking some random shit together and calling it a FnaF reference. >WOOOW THIS GUY WORE A PURPLE TIE, IS THIS A PURPLEGUY REFERENCE?>WOOOOW THIS VIDEO ON THERMAL COILS IS CRAZY, TOTALLY A SPRINGTRAP REFERENCEAbsolutely fucking deranged fanbase. I don't even try to read YouTube comments and I swear I see one of these freaks in my peripherals at least once a week. I'm convinced the average fan cannot go a day without assuming something entirely unrelated is in some way a FnaF reference. I fucking hate you people and I fucking hate your shitty game.

>>729857913Yes it was. Fallout 3, as an isolated random Bethesda game, was amazing. Fallout 3 as a Fallout game was horrible.
>>729857954No, it wasn't. Everything it does it does badly. Kinda amazing. Spare me your bullshit "erm, it's a good game, just not a good x game"

>>729834653Every Elder Scrolls and Fallout game has been dated as fuck even on release. And it's getting worse and worse. Elder Scrolls VI is going to kill the company.
>>729834451Unless you're underage or mentally ill, there's no reason you should like FNAF.
>>729834451SonicMy first sonic game as a Nintendo kid was secret rings, which immediately disillusioned me to the franchises problems. Nowadays, I like sonic games, despite their glaring flaws. I even sometimes admire the flaws now. Sonic 06 was such a hilarious and fun experience, for example.
