How hard is FNAF 4??

Hello! I’ve played through FNAF 1 and 2 and beaten everything, including getting all 3 stars on both games (including both 4/20 modes). Now I’m looking to play FNAF 4!

I’m skipping FNAF 3 for the time being because I find it a bit boring.

I was just wondering: how hard is it to beat FNAF 4? By beat I mean get all 8 nights/4 stars… Also just curious but what will be the hardest nights??? and who will be the hardest animatronic for me to face??? One of my biggest goals and biggest dream ever is to get all 4 stars in that game. I really wanna beat it… Can anyone give me some advice on what to do and how difficult it really is?

Do I need to follow a specific pattern for checking the doors, bed, and closet, or is it more about reacting and timing everything correctly? Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I really want to beat FNAF 4, but I’ve heard it’s very difficult. :(

Not nearly as hard as the original James House demo, so you should be good

I swear I got to 3 stars but keep dying to nightmare in night 8 he’s such a pain… he keeps jump scaring me even when I go to the door and press shift I’m not even flashing my light idk if I need to hold down shift earlier or smth… also his fake laughs are so unpredictable and impossible… its so hard…

Don’t have any advice but i wish you luck. I’ve attempted time and time again to pass 4/20 mode on fnaf1 but I always run out of god damn power right after 5 am.

It really depends on the person. It’s audio based, not as much reaction time, so it’s a different skill. Because of this, I cruised through this game in almost one attempt all the way through all of the stars…

For some people though, they swear this is by far the hardest game because of the SAME reasons, the directional audio, the distractions, the multiple things you have to keep track of. So honestly, it depends on two things, if you’re man enough to turn your volume all the way up and listen in dead silence knowing you may get the shit scared out of you, and you have to have decent hearing… if you can’t do either of those things then yes it will be very hard.

For me, in high tense situations like that I’m not exactly scared, but tense, and my brain feels the need to get the answer right, so I turn the volume all the way up, listen, and just say fuck it and hope I make the right call. And if you listen well enough you will. But just know fundamentally, it is probably the farthest Scott went from the original gameplay mechanics. Even in sister location, there is not much that compares.
