Wow, i cant believe im saying something negative about a fnaf game… :0 but this game isn’t really good. Ignore the “very positive” rating, if you scroll through the reviews you’ll see most of them are nonesense and just spam, probably kids trying to make the game look good or something. But in any case: Very disappointed, especially since we waited 2 freaking years for this game. Now mind you, i DID NOT, finish the game, but with the state the game is in, idk if i want to continue for now. There are so many bugs, i cant even describe them all :/ The gameplay is slow and boring, and repetitive (I freaking hate backtracking), and so far, the story kinda sucks. Im only on the part where you have to get the Fazer blaster, but a lot of the lore doesn’t mix well with the previous game (Help Wanted ). I wanted to see Vanny as a threat (WHERE IS HER KNIFE???), and yet here she is skipping along a set path and a jumpscare that doesn’t even have a unique scream (like it did in trailer one). Speaking of story, a lot has changed since 2020. In the second trailer, Vanessa is talking to us as if she’s trying to help, implying that it’s possible to accept her as an ally some time in the game. But nope, she functions exactly like an animatronic and even has her own dumb jumpscare. Look, i could go on and on, but the point of this is…Steel wool should have kept the game small, with a more coherent story. I think it was too big for the small studio to handle. I think they should pull SB from steam, refund everyone, and fix the game and tweak it. I don’t mind waiting again if it means we get an actual good game. This is the first fnaf game where I actually cannot recommend it. If the game is fixed and the plot is revised, i may change my opinion , but for now, just watch a playthrough with no commentary :)

EDIT: Ive played this game for a little longer, and honestly the bugs have mostly been fixed by now, but the story still sucks and makes no sense. Where's Vanny, where did the Blob come from, WHY IS THERE SO MANY DAMN STAFF BOTS??? So no, i still don't recommend this game, unless you really really want to play it. i'll change my opinion if Steel Wool adds a free roam mode that you can use to explore without risk. And with Ruin in the works...maaaayyybe the game can be redeemed..? (not without a lot of recons tbh tho..)

Vanny: "Ah, hello, I am an unarmed woman in a fursuit. Let me prance slowly towards you."
Also Vanny: [Never seen again until the final cutscene]

You're very right. I watched a couple of playthroughs and the gameplay was so bland it really turned me off. And that's without the game-breaking glitches people have experienced. The "story" is barely there and just doesn't bother to explain itself.
