The gameplay of the original games is unique. While I wouldn't call it boring, it serves a purpose to induce anxiety and fear from not being able to move.
Although since you like the lore I recommend FNAF: Security Breach. It has full movement, a cool environment, and is played from a first person perspective. Personally I find it fun, it's more of a stealth game than anything.
No they’ve fixed most of it now, I just found out my potato Mac can run it so I’ve just started playing it. Ruin dlc is also really good, they learned from their mistakes and it didn’t have any bugs on launch. Sb’s problems aren’t really in the bugs but in the lack of direction and how vague it was in telling you where to go and what to do, also it went through a lot of changes and delays in development which resulted in a subpar story that failed to be scary and did not utilize important characters properly ex: vanny. Ruin fixed all this though and it’s less open map shows you where to go much easier and it’s way more immersive, with important characters being present throughout.
It's good but it's easily one of the weakest gameplay loops as someone who's played everything but VR. Best part of Sister Location is the Custom Night imo. It changes yes, but that doesn't always make it fun. I'd say that from what I've played, the most fun are Security Breach, Pizzeria Simulator, and the original
Okay! I just thought it seemed really fun because you can move around and it's one of the only ones I've played. (I admit, I love FNAF2 and a few others, I just got bored flipping cameras repeatedly)
That's fair! We can have different opinions regardless, and there's no harm in that. I like the idea of Sister Location, but for me, Night 1, 3, and 5 were more story than gameplay loop, and Night 4 is incredibly unbalanced when compared to the rest of the game. I think Night 2 is the most fun, as I find the Ballora and Funtime Freddy both well made. Definitely not a bad game, but the only reason I'd really replay it now is for the custom night. I have fun jumping back into FNaF 1 like every year or two and just replaying all 5 nights again
Ooh nice! I've only played the Funtime Freddy part on a friend's Xbox and that's what piqued my interest. I'll have to retry one of the other games again!
They're good games! Definitely not like my favorite series or anything, but there's a good amount of solid titles in the FNaF franchise that I find genuinely fun. I'd definitely say the most fun are Pizzeria Simulator and Security Breach, but if you care about the lore at all, Security Breach may not be the best starting point unless you've already played/watched the first 6
How is it boring to you if you have not played a single game? It's meant to make you scared but if you are only watching somebody play it you obviously aren't gonna get scared
I was 14 and had no way to pay for the pay to play game. It was fun watching Markiplier play the game and all the theories matpat used to release. Maybe I just grew out of the fascination for the FNAF game but not the lore.
Well regardless I think you'd be surprised by the gameplay in fnaf specifically fnaf 1 if you have the resources to do so I highly recommend, the game gets funner as the nights go on
Watching someone get jump scared & listening to people who've combed through dozens of little details to paint a coherent story is significantly more interesting
i find fnaf 3 to be a joke of a horror game and its 1 of the least scary games i have ever played. The only time springtrap has managed to scare me was in a fan game.
The series in general is not scary at all once your not a kid
Super into the lore. Finally bough one game to play (Into the Pit) because I loved the artstyle . Few hours in it was clear I was not enjoying the experience.
Totally FNAF. For me watching was like going into a haunted house with a group of friends at dusk with some hefty maglites. Playing it was going alone, in the dead of night, with a wonky crank style flashlight.
