  I like villains. Especially if done right.<br>Sun/Moon is basically Two-Face as an animatronic daycare attendant, ready to pass judgement on you at the slightest provocation.<br>Mimic is a villain I tried to like, but since his lore is all over the place and somewhat inconsistent (on top of confusing motivations in the present day), I can just say I’m indifferent about him. That can change if he’s logically expanded on.<br>It’s so weird how Vanny was basically a mashup of both Baby and William himself, but (thanks to the censors) hasn’t made much impact on the overall story beyond just BEING THERE. Honestly all the story team needs to do to make me CONSIDER liking her is to just have her DO SOMETHING!<br><br>Er, I can has pin? 😅

  If you can look menacing while wearing pajamas, you’re a villain

  The unnecessary censorship of Gregory mentioning his blood leading the big theorists to promptly conclude he must be a robot is so freaking funny

  I find it insane that the scholastic fnaf books, literally aimed at a younger audience, has so much horrific described imagery....but then security breach, a mainline game, is heavily censored??

  Not gonna lie, the Mimic looks like a sad, scrawny emo kid who just realized he ran out of eye shadow and has to make the perilous trek into the real world to go shopping at Hot Topic in 2004.

  I think the issue is that FNAF creatives, whether it is Scott or Steel Wool, want their main villain to be this unimaginable threat too smart for anyone to capture. Too charismatic or unassuming for anyone to be suspicious of. Too powerful to be front and center. That, on top of wanting to keep the formula of fending off against actual animatronics that match the setting regulates them to background until the climax. <br><br>Pointing out Sun and Moon’s overall presence as to why they are beloved makes total sense.

  The fact that Moon, a jester in pajamas scares me more in the game than all versions of Afton says a lot. Especially when he is crawling towards you like he possessed and I love it.

  Okay, but Moon&apos;s jumpscare still looks like he&apos;s about to aggressively tickle the player.😂 Still doesn&apos;t stop me from liking the Daycare Attendant as a villain with a nervous sassy side.

  I’m so mad at how they handled Mimic. Mimic could have been great. It could have been legitimately terrifying. Instead it just… happens to be in the Pizzaplex for seemingly no reason and was VERY obvious that it was not Gregory.<br><br>And it baffles me that the games were censored. <b>They’re horror games.</b><br><br>Also shoutout to Kellen Goff for doing a PHENOMENAL job with the Daycare Attendant (and literally every character he voices).

  Long story short: FNAF needs more villains that aren’t William Afton coded (or tied to Afton, or just straight up Afton), and we want those villains to ACTUALLY BE PRESENT AND POSE A THREAT!!!
