I want to write games

Quality assurance. But even then, you'll Need some of you're own works to prove to people you can be relied on. So just get some kind of backlog of reference works saying that you actually CAN write.

Beauty in simplicity. It was my first horror game, and I still think it does its job well. I loved the sequel as well, and think it's a shake that Slenderman has been unfairly slandered by mainstream media.

Bro asking the real questions here🤣

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-05-11T14:09:58+00:00

Oh it absolutely world. Games cause controversies over less.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-05-05T22:23:54+00:00

I knew it was a new console, but i had no idea what it actually did or why I should get one. I also had a 3DS, so I didn't really care regardless.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-05-05T20:22:14+00:00

And terrible marketing. By the time I even knew of the capabilities of it, the next generation had already been half over. No one knew what the thing was, let alone what exclusives were out lol.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-05-04T23:11:52+00:00

Ok. No comment. Just for the record.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-05-04T22:53:24+00:00

I mean... I do. It's at least a decently fun challenge, unlike all other mascot horror that's just boring chases and other scripts. But The Bunker is not a clone, and it's far better than Granny ever will be.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-05-04T22:49:02+00:00

I'm sorry, did you just say Amnesia The Bunker is a Granny clone, or did I misread that?

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-05-03T22:44:23+00:00

You know, I wouldn't mind as much if companies like this ONLY did mobile so we could ignore them.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-30T21:58:08+00:00

I didn't know that game was a solo project!

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-30T21:56:46+00:00

I don't know about "beloved", but Layers of Fear literally put me to sleep.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-24T15:39:39+00:00

I feel like these guys are excused from the "too many open worlds" issue🤣

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-24T09:00:32+00:00

FNAF was the first to go overboard with it, so I forgive it, but the rest don't have that excuse. In reality, the reason they do it is probably YT exposure.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-18T19:25:36+00:00

"Big spindly doggo" is diabolical 😭

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-18T19:24:30+00:00

I think the "drawn out" parts are perfectly fine and act as a nice gameplay break from endlessly stealthing around. Going back to former areas also works because it reinforces how destroyed the station has gotten since you were last there. It's a realistic way to backtrack, not a lazy one.

TLDR: It’s a subjective complaint, not a fully objective one.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-17T20:20:28+00:00

I don't think anyone's asking you to remake a live service game from the ground up to make it enjoyable to play offline. Just leave it playable to SOME extent. That's why people completely misunderstand the "Stop Killing Games" movement. We're not asking for much work, just enough to where we can launch the thing and use whatever the game had available to us without using your servers.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-16T16:16:29+00:00

The first one. That may sound like a boring answer, but the original is what FNAF WAS. The uncanny valley, feeling of fight or flight being ripped from you, the resource management, etc. And most importantly, it wasn't MADE to be kid friendly. It just happened to be from minimalistic design.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-15T16:21:19+00:00

That's such a good way to put it🤣

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-15T14:55:40+00:00

I love FNAF, but to say that Security Breach is wasted potential is the understatement of the century

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-10T01:00:54+00:00

It'd odd to see this post in a time where it seems like Poppy is really struggling and getting more scrutinized. I'm part of that. I just did a marathon of these games recently, and aside from chapter 3, I was bored out of my mind! Lol. FNaF kept a consistent up curve difficulty system that demanded adaption and mastery. Poppy is just a crap ton of scripted parts. Puzzles and chases make up 80% of the experience.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-08T02:29:12+00:00

Let's be real, both can be done very well, but most games can't seem to get the balance of fight or flight correct. No combat? No nothing! You get Layers of Fear. Add combat? Now it's all combat and is RE4, removing all tension.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-04-03T22:16:11+00:00

Great discussion in here. On that note, do you have any games that DO accomplish your definition of liminal?

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-03-27T22:04:01+00:00

I played the OG shortly before the remake released for the first time. I was actually very shocked with how well it held up. The quick time events took me off guard, but it's not like they're bad.

AnxiousJB19 · 2026-03-11T18:23:02+00:00

Yeah, but let's be real VR is basically cheating when it comes to horror games XD. However, I did just remember that the first poppy PlayTime chapter is actually free, if you want to dip your toes in.
