Hey guys. Just wanted to clarify my review for a second. When FNAF World first came out, on the 21st I wrote the first version of this review. The game got a 2 because in my opinion it was barely playable. However since there was a weekend in between the release and when this article would be posted (partially because of the horrible snow storm that hit the east coast) I was asked to redo it. The patch that was released added a lot to the game, addressing several issues like the complete lack of ability descriptions. This was enough to bump the game to a 2.5 which in our rating system is playable but below average. Taking Cawthon at his word that he would eventually fix the rest of the issues I had with the game (and considering how fast the first patch came out I had no reason not to think this was the case), the final review score became a 3.0, average and wholly unremarkable, only appealing to fans of the franchise. There is no score step between 2.5 and 3.0 that The Escapist uses otherwise it would have been a 2.7 or 2.8, for as much as it's difficult to boil a complex opinion down to a number.
And that's a little look behind the scenes at how games are scored. 3.0 is sort of the measuring stick for a game that does nothing entirely offensive but does nothing incredibly right either and post patch with patch support coming up I thought that's where FNAF World was.
... Then the game was pulled from Steam soooooo.... Yeah. Oops.
