The FNAF Franchise NEEDS to Make Up its Mind
Five Nights at Freddy's has risen far beyond any indie game we've seen before, spawning numerous games and even a movie with a fanbase that keeps on growing.
But it has a persistent problem that it can't seem to find a solution for, which might make it difficult to sustain this growth...

    The beauty of this franchise is the ambiguous nature of it all and the occasional use of comedic satire. I think that people are forgetting that FNAF has never really taken itself seriously even during the early days when we have quotes such as, "The animatronics characters here do get a bit QUIRKY at night, but do I blame them, no" or "So not only will you be monitoring the people on the camera as they pass through, you know, to make sure no one STEALS anything or, (makes out?) in the corner, but you'll also be a part of the show!" The way I see it is that the FNAf series has taken on a Resident Evil approach in the sense that it obviously has its serious/dark moments while also injecting some humor here and there. As for the new stuff that started with Help Wanted 1, I think this "mess" is simply Steel Wool trying to figure out what worked to follow up on the events we saw in FNAF 4 to UCN and the games following them would introduce some new questions, while also answering older questions.

    Fnaf's specialty was originally whimsicality and weirdness. Old Fnaf was never afraid to combine the scary, comical and depressing in a single equivalent. Wasn't afraid to throw in a joke about "Don't poop on the floor" before they kill you and show you a picture of your eyeballs falling out in a suit. Wasn't afraid to talk about death inside the suit through a comically talking phone guy while a melancholic plot about old evil and innocent souls was happening in the background. He wasn’t afraid to insert meme inserts about soap operas into stories about a revived corpse. He wasn't even afraid to go into the baby springtrap. Nowadays, you don’t really expect that from him.

    I hope they can keep the horror. I always really enjoyed sister location and even if I’m biased to supernatural, sister location I found still kept a good amount of it even when introducing remnant. I don’t find the new games as interesting as the earlier ones I believe since they are leaning more into sci-fi ai and robot kids? As well as just not being as scary, I still like the franchise but I personally enjoy the horror supernatural aspect of the earlier part of the series. Once again back to sister location I love how the animatronics have character as well as their designs, im glad that new characters have kept unique personalities as opposed to just mascots like the initial games, and while I don’t find the new games designs as intriguing, secret of the mimic I hope goes back to the roots a little bit

    I think it should have kept it's core mechanics. Making kids the protagonist is strange. I think they should have kept you as a worker for the,navigating the dangers of the building. Gregory and Cassie's characters didn't make much sense in the story. The security breach story was a bit mixed up with underwhelming climaxes. It could continue to world and character build while knowing the backstory.

    I wish fnaf got better treatment, i would have preferred it continued on only by fan devs creating games and such, but steel wool has absolutely ruined it with cartoonish goofy personality driven characters and turning what was while a comically complex story broadly, had feeling and an overarching narrative, into a substanceless full on neon bright kids game, not to mention the books "not being in the same continuity" or whatever scott's current answer is is obviously being gone back upon considering none of the rebooted story makes any sense other than with the context of the books, which i feel ultimately killed the franchise. I think the downhill trend started with fazbear frights trying to be different parts of the fnaf universe instead of just an adaptation of the games

    Something people don’t talk enough t about is the art style of the original games Fnaf 1- UCN had a style that stuck to that era of 80s movies or cheap 90s-2000s animation. Even help wanted 1 kind of had this cheap style/ charm to it that the later games don’t have. I remember playing security breach for the first time and felt off and was asking why this didn’t feel like I was playing a fnaf game and I think it was the art style. Later titles in the series have a much more corporate/ safe art style that kind of blends in with the poppy playtimes and the bendys and doesn’t stick out on its own like legacy fnaf did I think what should happen is the fnaf brand should have an artistic supervisor to make sure the franchise looks like fnaf and not something different Example of current games Five laps at Freddy’s should look similar to fnaf world ITP should look like the Atari mini games or the desolate hope/ sister location The movie should have had lighting from fnaf 1 translated into live action and should have remade the old sounds and OST from the original game. I think one franchise that sticks to a consistent style is DOOM From the first game doom has always been arcade like and wasn’t too serious about itself When DOOM 3 came out the series took a more horror approach which it was criticized for. Id software didn’t release another doom game till the soft reboot in 2016 which took the gameplay of the original and mixed it with DOOM 3s art style I’d software took it 1 step further with doom eternal and literally remade the old sprites and guns just like the first/ second game but now as HD models. That’s probably why I like doom so much is because most of the franchise is pretty consistent in tone and style which I think fnaf needs to take a lesson from

    It feels like you don’t understand that a franchise can't be flexible for example the Batman series has media that varies in tones, like the lego batman movie a PG kids movie and The Joker a R rated film, being released only 2 years apart from each other. Another example is the Godzilla franchise, Godzilla has been an allegory for nuclear weapons,the dangers of forgetting one's history and survivor's guilt, but he has also been, a Monster of Justice, a dad, an Action Hero, he has even been a kid learning math. I really don’t see the reason why FNaF can’t also be a flexible franchise if other franchises can also be flexible.

  • @afosandstufflol

    I'm not surprised FNAF went Sci-fi, Scott Cawthon loves sci-fi, and if you knew his past history of his games - Iffermoon, The Desolate Hope, you'd know he can really model some amazing stuff and obviously that stuff just appeals to him. FNAF was always going to go in the sci-fi direction as long as Scott owns it. I just don't like how it's so kiddie now. Scott can tell mature sci-fi themes, again to the Desolate Hope, it's almost a tragic game about childhood and life. Though I think apart of this is also just FNAF having a really bad groundwork to build from - The Desolate Hope is self-contained in one game, not such a big series. Ditto for iffermoon though it's story also is a bit weird.

    In my personal opinion after the travesty that happened with security breach, scott is course correcting the lore and story to be more linear, and that's the reason why the next game, the secrets of the mimic, is set before any fnaf games before, scott is literally starting from the beginning of the timeline and making it more linear and clearer what is or isn't canon.

    I would say that today's FNaF's "horror" isn't it's genre but it's style. The games don't focus on being scary anymore but they use horror as a setting to their more casual gameplay, and personally I think that's ok. While I dislike the modern lore because of how hard it goes into sci-fi compared to previous titles, I still like the gameplay and that's the most important part. (Yes, I'm one of those people who enjoyed SB on release)

    The problems this game has is the same problem a lot of franchises have nowadays. Kids are a big market, I don't care what you say, companies, no matter how nice they may seem, just want your money at the end of the day. They will always shift the whole audience to be more suited to kids at least because... that's where the money is. I loved Security Breach, and I loved Ruin even more, but neither is remotely scary (With the exception of the weeping angel endo skeletons lol they were such a sick concept!) And I think I could forgive the lack of scares if it was at least... gritty! They want to be way too soft and cuddly. I don't mind this as long as they give us a scary thing once in a while. I love that kids are being introduced to the series lol, but I and all my friends and a large quantity of the "old fans" were introduced to the franchise at like fucken 12 years old or even younger!. We didn't have any of that soft crap, Freddy wasn't a father figure.

    The franchise is in a great spot. We've never had so much content to enjoy and while stuff like Security Breach and the movie weren't perfect (Security Breach especially) it's still going stronger than ever. The tone has always been kinda weird since Sister Location but it's not the worst. I'd appreciate if they kept it more consistent with FNaF 1-3's tone of horror but throw in the jokes of corporate negligence but not as hamfisted as more recent titles. Designs and stories are improving, Secrets of the Mimic is looking to be an interesting entry and the designs stick out as properly creepy but still believable. I think if they kept the goofy tone to less serious entries like FNaF World or Five Laps at Freddy's it wouldn't be too bad.

    I could talk so much about modern fnaf games and their flaws. I just want Fnaf to go back to its roots of being angst. Basically, having that good old eerie atmosphere, ambiance, claustrophobia, darkness,... That's a real fnaf for me. Not this new kid-friendly game Steel Wool is making. The biggest mistake you can do is giving your horror game to studios like this. And nowadays people see fnaf as a joke and say it shouldn't and isn't scary.

      The worst part is... They can make it scary. They did it before with the Help wanted games. Sure the first one was based on the first 4-5 games, but the second one was genuinely scary at some points.

    I've been a fan since August 2014 and haven't had too many big problems with the "modern" franchise. I love horror, and I do enjoy the horror part of the franchise, but having the fun, non-horror, cute spin-off titles mixed within the titles tagged as horror is nice. The 10-year anniversary lineup of games is a great example of this. Starting with myPOPGOES, a cute resource management game with the horror themes not being the complete focus of the title, then we went to TJOC, a full psychological horror resource management game with good scares, a good atmosphere, and a good ambiance. Then we got FLaF, a fun, cute, kart racer that still has horror elements but isn't taking itself too seriously to be a full-on horror kart racer (which could change with the release depending on the other levels in the full release), and then we got Into the Pit, a well-made, fun horror title that takes what it has and uses it to the fullest they can. We got 4 titles, adventuring different parts of the FNaF franchise, all of which work in their own ways. Anyway, all this to say, I love the franchise, even if the direction is unknown. I'm still here to see what's next from both Scottgames, Steel Wool, and even Mega Cat (if they return).

    I like to see the more child friendly games like five laps, fnaf world and the fighting game (can't remember the name )as games made by fazbear ent to make light of their history and the more horror orientated games as real events in the fnaf universe. That doesn't excuse the constant flip flop in tone. But thats my head canon

      I think people would be more accepting of them in general if they were actually well made and functional products. Five Laps as it is right now is a Greek tragedy in game design. Afaik the devs are literally contractors with no prior experience, and the game has gone through about 8 different iterations to get to where it is now.

    Amazing video Been a fan of the theory crafting side of the franchise since the beginning and you make really good arguments It is a challenge to make something that not only will attract more people but please those who have been since the start of it all I personally like some of the lore wild turns and developments, like, not something that is set in stone but different faces of an object that is the fnaf universe
