also it actually tells the story which fnaf 2 didnt bother doing
The game isn't better its way worse. The way it tells the story isn't even that good. the original fnaf 2 told the story through phone calls and 8-bit minigames which left tons of space for theorizing. this however spoon-feeds the lore right into your mouth like your a toddler which leads no room for theorizing which ruins the fun. one thing I would like to add is that is game isn't legal it is too similar to the original fnaf 2 to be considered legal and discourages buying the original (better) game. this could have been fixed with a steam verification system to check if the user has bought the original game however this games creator has gone on to say that they hate Scott Cawthon just for his political opinion and will most likely not add a verification system because she doesn't like people buying his games.
the game is better in everyway, youre just having a tantrum because the FREE game this person developed FOR FREE is not up to your very specific standards. OG fnaf 2 has very generic (rng dependant) gameplay where you only have 3 forms of real defense. the story was vague in the original because quite frankly scott is shit at telling complex stories, which can be seen in the books writing and the fnaf 2 movie.
I'm not having a tantrum lol. I don't care if the game is free or not. standards for what a good fnaf fangame is has increased fnaf remakes don't cut it anymore. take the glitched attraction or playtime with Percy or SCP: the endurance those game are amazing yet are completely free and I genuinely you recommend you play at least one of the games I listed. fnaf 2 having RNG is what makes it fun and challenging, it may have rng but its not impossible, it took me many tries to beat 10/20 mode but every time I died I came up with a new strategy to combat the issue I had, I little bit of rng can be good it can even make some games scary. about the storytelling I really like the storytelling because it directly confirms that the animatronics are possessed and also shows William Afton for the first time. the truth is fnaf has always told its story in a very vague way using environmental and fragmented storytelling, which is not a bad way at telling its story Games like Baldis basics plus, Hello Neighbor, Tattletail and Silent Hill use the same method. also you didn't mention my concerns about this game being legal because it doesn't have a steam verification system which could get it taken down by Scott Cawthon. I am sorry if the way I criticised the game wasn't clear enough and I can see why you don't like the original fnaf 2 also I did not like the books or the fnaf movies.
What about those of us who can't afford the original game, or are just kids who want to play a FNAF 2 remake? It's not even that similar to FNAF 2 for Scott to delete it. There are many fangames that are much more similar to FNAF 1/2 than this one, and they weren't deleted. Besides, Scott isn't that involved with FNAF anymore. Sorry if some sentences are unclear; I used a translator.
if you cant afford fnaf 2 then too bad. this game is very similar to fnaf 2 to the point it could be taken down due to it sharing most of the same mechanics besides the power mechanic, most fnaf remakes have a steam verification system nowadays so they arent taken down. an example of fnaf remake that did get taken down due to not having a verification system is AFF:OS by phisnom, scott took this game down due to it being too similar to fnaf 2. also scott is still involved in fnaf nowadays he took down lostpawplays fnaf plus a year ago.
Scott doesn't like the idea of fan games that recreate/polish/remake any official FNaF game being a much better version of the official installments having a steam verification system that checks if you own the original game so it doesn't seem that you "can play a better version of FNaF that someone uploaded for free".
Quote from one of his comments on a FNaF 1 polished up recreation reddit post someone posted on r/fivenightsatfreddys subreddit which he then proceeded to comment on with this response:
"-I know that it apparently checks to see if you have the original game first, but it still doesn’t change the fact that this is basically the original game being uploaded and hosted by someone other than myself (even if done with more polish than my original game!)"
