RE: Oasis_Nadrama

i totally agree. the FNAF thing i brought up as the cause for this thought was super similar- i myself dont dislike or feel slighted by the recent FNAF media whatsoever. i have always enjoyed it, and very likely always will. HOWEVER that sentiment is not shared by the majority of people in the FNAF fandom, and yet... they stick around! there are those who feel as though FNAF hasnt been good or enjoyable since the third entry- and that was a decade ago! a real life decade! and yet those fans stick around in the hopes that maybe one day theyll enjoy it again. they never will, though, because theyll never be ten years old again, right? thats how nostalgia gets you, and how the love for POTENTIAL can warp your love for the real thing. why stick around if you hate it? why stick around if its only bitterness that remains?

i want to echo this sentiment i saw on bluesky about the homestuck animated pilot, and all of the discourse surrounding it, because i feel as though it illustrates my entire idea with this concept and thread very very well:
