Why are people so obsessed with Bendy and the Ink Machine?

Don't get me wrong, it doesn't look like a bad game, just looks like another generic horror game to me.

Unsuprisingly people can like things you do not

It seems to be the new 'Five Nights at freddy's' and youtubers have been dying for one of those. Especially since the last FNAF game kinda burnt out early. YOu know how it goes. They need stuff to scream girlishly about because that's what gets the views. and that sweet ad revenue.

Heaven help the youtube market if youtube actually figures out a way to tell if ads are actually being seen. Because I know my ad filter's been doing a lovely job of blocking them.

But other than that It looks kinda nifty. Work was put into it.

That makes sense. "A horror game that looks well made? Time to milk it!"

You think it's bad now. Wait til MatPat devotes his next 20 game theories videos to it.

So yeah. a few players like a talk about it. you tubers hear about it and start doing live streams and letsplays and then more people start playing it and then more tubers jump on the bandwagon.

The only problem I have with these sorts of games is that they kinda have the same problem FNAF showed by the third game. Namely, the games seemed to be built less to be actually played and more to watch while someone else plays it.

FNAF:SL fell into that trap hard. It started from part 3 and only got worse from there. This game might actually wind up with the same fate

I don't even know what that is and I'm going to keep it that way. What other people do or like bothers me just as much as grass growing.

I now know it's a first person game, and I have a really hard time playing those. Motion sickness and that stuff. I tend to pass on them no matter the quality.

Besides, it wouldn't be the first time a fanbase that loved a game a little too much drove me away from trying it.

Do you also frequent hipster cafes and wear lens-less glasses? Because that's the kind of person you come across as, saying you don't like things because of how other people like them.

I never said I don't like things because people like them. Or else my library would be full of overwhelmingly negative games.

I meant to say an obsessive fan base, such as Fnaf, Undertale, etc, will drive me away from that game. Not that I have to explain it, it's just how I feel about these things.

And no, I don't even wear glasses.

FPS motion sickness is a well known thing actually. Never found trhe fanbase of FNAF or Undertale to be any worse than that for skyrimn. Then again i almost never really interact with other people or groups unless i can help it.

yeah. It does if nothing else capture a very distinct and at the same time unsettling art style. Much like FNAF. Last time I saw a game with taht deliberate style was Paper Sorceror.
