I wish Microsoft the best on the project; although until I see a real success that lasts for longer than the Nintendo VirtualBoy, I remain a little skeptical.
[I’ve been through SO MANY false starts in VR and Augmented Reality through the years that I can’t pin my hopes on any particular one as being ‘the success’].

FNAF innovated a new type of horror and a vision of the future; that of being trapped, immobile, without many choices for your fate.

Anyway, I think too hard about stuff.
