Looking at the discourse a year an a half later, I can say that yeah, its not good for a general audience, not even for the "serious fans" and yet it scratches my brain in the best way posible and i know it does for other fans who grew up in the trenches of the fandom when they were like 8 (which, mood)
(same with the sonic movies franchise, like- who gave them the right to be so good and silly)
Maybe for the future the movies will get even more spooky (not scary, but spooky, its still aimed at younger fans) , i'm so exited for the second fnaf movie omg I can ramble for hours about fnaf
