As opposed to what, mascot horror of the good old days? When Mr Blobby used to terrorize millennial children back in the 90s? What?

Dedicated horror gaming is a sham, all good horror games are good games of another genre first, then enhanced by their horror aspects.

Why don't any mascot horror games have monsters that look bug-eyed clowns like this? This is actually creepy, and it doesn't need rows upon rows of sharp teeth or claws to do it.

Because all of them are made to be profitable rather than good. It's the modern equivalent of the toy cartoons of the 80s, but without the charm because they're too sanitized and don't give a shit in the wrong way.
>>715841861
Because the mascots still need to be marketable and that's more important than actually being scary.

I'm kind of surprised no one's done a horror game based on Crinkley Bottom, a failed theme park based on Mr. Blobby seems the perfect idea for mascot horror.

Actually FNAF only had jumpscares when you lose. If you play the game correctly there are no jumpscares in the middle of the game. Unless you count the stinger sound they play when you shine light on an animatronic when it's at your door.

Because instead of trying to improve the formula FNAF set up, they're rehashing it.
>Scott makes FNAF and it's a basic mechanics-heavy jumpscare simulator meant to both be a practice game to improve development skills and a small knock against those who called his previous games scary
>It's received like the second coming of Christ
>Scott refines these mechanics and adds new ones to continue supplying the demand in future entries
>Adoration for the series reaches a fever pitch and begins inspiring copycats
>These copycats see the demand and push out identical works without the FNAF label
>Some become successful (Poppy's Playtime) while others become infamous (Garten of Banban)
>Everything else dies in an obscure ditch because "mascot horror" isn't a real genre but just a nicer way of saying "FNAF-like".

Genuine question, what is the connection between Fnaf and Poppy? It seems superficial, gameplay and atmosphere are totally different, their marketing and release structures are different, it really seems like mascot horror is just a smear for kid friendly horror.

Idk. I assume when most people think about a jumpscare, they specifically think about the loud screamers. Not something more broad like turning the corner and silently bumping into a stranger kind of jumpscare.

FNAF was over 10 years ago. It's gay idiot shit that only children like but now it's got an entire decade's worth of slop and its own conventions as a genre.

Yes, and it was stupid jumpscare slop with no level design back then, too, so acting like it was so different in the good old days is disengenuous. Also 10 years ago being the "good old days" is also kind of laughable.

Noel Edmunds would be a great William Afton analog if they ever made a Blobby horror because there's so fucking much they could draw from real life.
Has any Britbong TV ever been successfully reinterpreted in vidya? Closest I can think of is the Chucklevision/Hitman cross promo.
