Is this game worth Buying?

I bought FNAF 1 for 2.49$ on sale. It was a decent game, but over exaggerated I thought,

FNAF 2 just looked like a reskin of FNAF 1 so I didn't buy it,

(Yes I know about the whole "new animatronics" and "gameplay features" please don't nag me about this!)

FNAF 3 didn't look as good as FNAF 1 so I didn't buy it,

So now FNAF 4 recently got released, and after reading some reviews, watching some gameplay, and mulling about it: It all just looks repetitive.

Why should I buy this game?

What makes this game different and not repetitive from previous installments?

I am not a fan of the series (Even less towards the fandom) and Intresting "Lore" (backstory) does not make a good game alone. (A good story maybe)

So...you just talked yourself out of buying it? Is that what happened here?

I did that before making this discussion if thats your question.

You can always tell me:

Why should I buy this game?

That is the point of the discussion but it will probably go off topic with this community.......

You should buy it because you are talking about it and if you keep talking about it why not just buy it because you are talking about it. Or just do the wheel of fortune and see which choice you have.;)

Well I dont have any particular reason to tell you to buy or not buy. Thats all up to you. I have them because, yeah, Im a fan, but I am not one of THOSE fans, one that will report you for hating FNAF (Which happened to me, even though Im a fan. Some 12 year old was upset at being called a kid or something) Nor would I bash you for not wanting to buy them all. Yeah, it has some great lore and a good story (If you can find all the secrets for it) But that is about it.

It's like FNAF 1, but better and scarier. You have the creepy atmosphere of the first game, but this time you actually got stuff that actually is scary, like the Nightmare Animatronics. Trust me, they look scarier than Springtrap from FNAF 3 (especially Foxy, Fredbear, Chica and Nightmare)

its harder, so get it if you want more of a challenge than fnaf 1.

also theres better graphics and scarier animatronics.

Each game is different in its own way. It's tough to explain.

It's a must have for fans for the series (I did a little review for it^^)

But to make it quick. The Gameplay is really different compared to the other games. You have to be patient and you have to listen very carefully. It's not the rush-from-a -door-to-another- game anymore.
The jumpscares are great. Because of the fact that the game's pace is much slower, you start to think about your situation. Mix that with the sound and the atmosphere and every nightmare that you had as a child and you have one nightmare of a game.

The story itself trys to answer some questions from the series but it also creates some.

To summarize it (My opinion, but I've got allready 7.5 hours of gameplay)

Gameplay: Fantastic
Lore: Just for Fans
Scary Factor: Builds up in your own head; major scares at some points

What's the refrence, I played it, never ffound it.

around room 85ish, the desk from fnaf one, with a phone, you can interact ith the phone to hear a original phone call, with hallways leading left and right to the next room

I forgot how to take a screenshot, but the phone-person wasnt really saying anything important.

Sorry if this is late, but basically the mechanics is still the same. If you don't like it to be the same thing, don't buy it. However, the story behind is a bit interesting and confusing for beginners. Whats bland about it are the jumpscares, which are always the same (like I said) the same mechanics. Coopdevile is right about the fans, just ignore the fans and you'll be fine. I recommended you not to get it but we all have different opinions
