ughhhh game theory.
Oh, and screw Game Theory.
Could you elaborate as to why you don't like Game Theory? I don't see anything wrong with what Mat Pat does. I'm not saying everyone should like it but a specific dislike/hatred for Game Theory seems irrational to me.
cause he just makes crap up and hes irritating to listen to

Anyway, 4th game trailer is released.


My good news: This is actually looking legitimately better and different than the previous entries. Jumpstart or not
My bad news: He (potentially) lied about the Halloween deadline and now releasing this on August 8. I'm ready to see elements of the rushed deadline.

Thoughts?

Smart of him to change it up from the security guard role, though I suspect the gameplay is the same as previous games.

I think the gameplay will be like elements from all of the previous games, like closing doors and spamming lights from the first one, being able to hide from the second one, and meaningless jumpscares from the third one. However, it *seems* like the player will be more mobile in some way for this one.

How could you tell his PC was bad?  I didn't see anything particularly good or bad about it.

I personally think the 4th game will have the best graphics.

Also, Foxy looks like a crack dealer behind that closet.

FNAF4 is a good idea, but, when I played it with some friends a few hours after release, it was fundamentally broken because the breathing that you needed to hear as it was your only way of knowing whether an enemy was at the door was nearly impossible to hear and sometimes just wouldn't play. Scott's said that he fixed it but I've not seen it in action yet.

Just watched Markpilier's LP.  Some faulty gameplay mehanics, and if you're interested in the story resolution, you're completely out of luck, that's being held off for the DLC three months from now.  They act like they're going to reveal
but it's actually a red herring.

It's probably not a red herring, and that's all because of what Scott said the DLC is going to be.

Scott, when discussing the DLC in a now-deleted (he purged the page) Steam announcement said it would not expand upon the game, it wouldn't be a sequel, and it wouldn't be a prequel. I think the story is supposed to conclude here, which makes it all the more incredibly flawed.

Oh boy. I can't wait for the newly announced Six Nights At Freddy's: Episode 1, scheduled for Christmas this year but actually moved forward to November

I've had to totally rewrite this post from scratch to mean something completely different since I first posted it, because some new info has come up that could put this to rest.  Bear with me.

Yeah, that's probably it, though I feel like it's kind of a bait and switch move to announce you're releasing a game early, then release it with all the good stuff in a future DLC.  Also, I miss getting the phone calls; they were a good way to deliver exposition without interfering with gameplay.
