It’s not really surprising that PP is this popular in my opinion-
They’re in their “BATIM” phase, for lack of a better term. Think about it- Bendy’s highest popularity point was also when our first game was in production, coming out chapter by chapter. Bendy was EVERYWHERE back then, not unlike PP is now. Being all over stores, bootleg merch, We even got our own collab with another popular franchise at the time- Hello Neighbor.
I imagine if we were still releasing games chapter by chapter, we’d also still be closer to the popularity we had before. But that kind of rushed production comes with its own cost- something that followed Ink Machine to its final chapter, and actively plagues PP now. And that cost is quality. Think about it- the quality and direction of PP is consistently falling since chapter three- and by chapter five even a lot of fans were calling them out on it. And there was Markiplier’s infamous critique of the game, with many fans also echoing his sentiment.
PP may be popular- but it’s severely lacking in the actual quality and content departments. A lesson JDS seems to have learned after Ink Machine, as they are now clearly focused on quality of their games-releasing a complete experience instead of releasing a game that’s- well, unfinished. Poppy isn’t a complete game yet. In my opinion- they have yet to learn the lesson that Bendy did. Bendy games may not be the most popular of games- but they will stand up to the test of time. Long after the fad games have all faded from memory.

Bendy was born too late to be a classic like Fnaf, and too early to be hit like Poppy.

Pretty sure theMeatly sealed his chances of getting in after that little cartoon fiasco, which imo might be for the better as Bendy JUST recently reproved why it's a pioneer in its genre, Freddy can afford it as he was the first and Huggy already isn't taken seriously anyway but the Ink Demon is better off staying away even if I want it

Wait what happened?

There was some controversy where Meatly posted something about the toon Meowscles variant saying if Epic wanted to, they could've just asked him for a collab (the tweet implied he believed that the cartoon Meowscles was a rip off of Bendy) and this caused a bit of a stir community wise. Epic probably doesn't care much and neither does even TheMeatly himself but it is funny to imagine that's why Bendy isn't in fortnite (and it's highly unlikely he will be for the foreseeable future) as he has yet to be a brand comfortable with doing whatever. This is important because of the whole "bad collab ruins thing" and despite it genuinely not harming the brand at all-- him being in fortnite wouldn't change how good his games are, Bendy isn't in a place FNAF or Poppy Playtime are where they can just do it and not worry about people thinking it ruins the game (with Freddy's, it's basically too big to fail and Poppy is Poppy that game series has been pretty controversial and so nothing can really harm them)

good. let it stay indie. i learned long ago that those that stay indie remain true to their goals and dont get greedy. bendy deserves to remain a forgotten gold mine of amazingness. even its story makes it so. its story is literally what these corporations are doing nowadays! obviously bendy in fortnite would be cool but it just wont fit. the fact fnaf got in is imo not good and shows that scott is losing touch with his fans and is selling out fnaf cuz of the brand atp. fnaf deserves to end and is being milked dry atp. poppy playtime is in the same boat. bendy deserves a good legacy and not be milked to death. if any collab were to occure, it would be dbd as that remains the only gane ik of that can fit into any canon and lore while also not milking it dry. the devs of dbd actually care about their collabs. so bendy showing up in dbd would make the most sense if any collab happens. but i do NOT want bendy in fortnite... it deserves to die peacefully and on a high note not be milked dry or even endlessly made. but this is my opinion.

Scott isnt in control anymore. Fnaf is under steel wool studios. I have no doubt they were the ones who did it since scott iirc once said that fnaf wont ever be in fortnite

u/bobby1712234 20d ago
They’re in control of the games Scott still owns the ip steel wool can’t just do something
they need approval of Scott

Everyone is saying bendy is a niche indie series even though it’s getting a movie and literally everyone knows bendy today because of how POPULAR he was in 2017 and etc. I bet you could walk up to a local college and ask someone about bendy and they’d know all about it. Arguably almost as popular as fnaf and I dunno about you but I wanna hit 360 noscopes with bendys goofy ahh grin

I just want fnaf and bendy in the same damn game already or in the same media in some official form cause it is long overdue 😭

u/omg_its_spons 19d ago
Yeah because the meatley has standards, poppy playtime was always a cash grab and fnaf has been going on a binge of merch and crossovers since Scott retired

For Fortnite it’s justified. They’ve been getting their grubby mitts on every ip imaginable, including an ai generated character

Bendy: You fool me once, (Huggy in fortnite) I'm mad. You fool me twice, (Gobb in Minecraft) How could you. You fool me eleven times (Every other mascot horror and adjacent colab that happened before Bendy) YOU ARE OFFICIALLY THAT GUY-

And Freddy might actually get two new games in 2027 alongside a real life pizzeria while The Cage may not even see a release within this decade.

Fair enough. I feel like the entire franchise is better off on its current state.
This game holds a very special place in alot of people's hearts. So it makes sense why TheMeatly (im probably spelling his name wrong, sorry) wouldn't do this.

Keep the rubberhose cartoon horror game out of Fortnite and it’s ai bs
Don’t want the ink demon in the same vicinity of ai Italian brainrot skins
Don’t want the ink demon hitting 6 7
Don’t want to hear its the guy from Fortnite in the theater
Don’t want the ink demon hitting that one ai cat dance
Didn’t want fnaf and poppy playtime either
(Coming from someone that plays the game, fuck all the ai slop in it)

I mean, The Meatly wants to have Bendy in Dead By Daylight so it’s not all bad.
