Five Nights at F***boy's: Solo Edition

A warning on spoilers and discussing the game upon release


Hello all, it's your boy, Frod Bury.

I want to touch a little on the topic of this game's content, its story, and the impact a spoiler can have on a game's enjoyability. Not that "enjoyability" is a word, mind you.

Spoilers, for the most part, do not genuinely ruin an experience if you don't let them. In a lot of contexts, spoilers can perhaps rattle your enjoyment temporarily, or in some they may even excite you. You wonder how things could reach that point.

What I'm trying to say is that a spoiler doesn't need to be something derogatory. It can even help a game or story! Wild, right?

And yet... with Solo Edition specifically in mind, I believe that spoilers may genuinely mess with your experience within the game world. This is a game with twists and turns, and some of those turns are quite genuinely 180 degrees in rotation. People are broken, worlds are changed, mistakes are made. This game, despite being FNaFb-centric, does focus a lot on characters. Seeing how characters react to the unique world Solo Edition provides.

I'm not gonna tell you "boohoo please don't spoil my game!" because that obviously won't work. D'uh. I'm not a kid, I know that telling people to not do something incentivises them to do it even more than if I said nothing. But specifically in the game's comments, please try to be more civil with spoilers. If you have specific issues, I'll help still. If they require you spoil something, that's a necessary cost.

But trust me when I say that on this game's page, I'd really appreciate it if you guys kept quiet as best you can on the game's story, especially. This is not an individual story. This is not one chapter. This is a part of something bigger. And the setup is just as important as the payoff.

Thanks,
