My biggest problems with SB (Spoilers)

So I've been playing SB since it came out. I haven't finished it, and I can't play it anymore. The patch that came out is too big, and since it isn't finished downloading, I can't start the game up.

I have heard and seen a lot from people about this game, and while I can't agree with everything people say, I do have my issues with the game.

I won't be talking about the glitches or bugs. Those are obv problems, but they're going to be patched out, and while we can criticize them for being there in the first place, I don't think it's fair to continue to rag on Steel Wool for them.

The problem I have is that the game is totally different from what we expected, and not in a good way. Just look back at trailer one, and then at the game. Lots of that stuff isn't in there. Vanessa doesn't try to help you, there's no one screaming "YOU WILL DO AS I SAY!". Vanny's voice is completely different as well. It's more robotic and deep rather than the soft voice with an occasional robotic twang to it. It's not a choice I like, but if you like it, that's fine.

And speaking of Vanny... ooooh boy, she got the short end of the stick, even worse than Baby. At least Sister Location was ABOUT Baby! We got an entire game about the return of Afton, and then both DLC and a game about Vanny being under his influence.. and yet she rarely shows up. It's clear from the endings that she was supposed to be more important than she actually ended up being.

An easy way to have her make more of an impact.. have her show up more, randomly. If you stand out in the open for too long, or do certain things, she shows up and the other 3 disappear (and maybe the staff bots). She knows you hide in Freddy, so that won't work. She's the slowest though, and you have to use the environment to your advantage. Hide, make distractions, anything you can to get to a safe place.

As for Vanessa... make her someone else you can take advice from. Freddy says "go here", but Vanessa says "go there". Both offer different challenges, and you can choose who you follow. Hell, maybe in the "True" ending, you have to do what both of them say.

And of course... Afton. Boy, I love your model but they did not do you well. You're basically just a Dark Deception boss. You don't get the time you need. And the Blob... retcon city up in here! I like the concept but... not the execution.

And now onto the voice actors. Now the voice actors we got were amazing and did their best, but aside from Freddy and Vanessa.. the others don't get their time to shine. A way to put in personality without even adding much more is to have them interact. Chica and Roxy both patrolling an area? Chica says "Oh, I love your tail, Roxy!" "Thanks, I know". Or maybe if you're hiding in Freddy and pass by them, they say something to him, blissfully unaware

The problem I have with the VAs... there's barely any of them! I mean, look back at this list Kane made of all of these characters that Scott was hiring VAs for. Barely any of them show up at all. Imagine there being other kids, other adults, other robots, etc.

I know we'll be getting DLC and updates, but I highly doubt they can or will change the game to be in a state more like it was back then. Maybe we'll get a DLC about Vanny, and Gregory coming back? I hope. Give Vanny SOMETHING.

I still like this game, but it's... a lot different than I expected, and I'm not sure if some of these were bad choices...

What do you guys think?
