I actually disagree. I think the sci-fi elements, and especially Remnant, are awesome (and had been pseudo-foreshadowed since the first game). I think the problem is that the series didn’t end after FFPS and UCN, with maybe Help Wanted being allowed if it actually had a conclusive ending. Afton went from a serial killer to a serial killer with mysterious sci-fi motivations to a ridiculous slasher villain returning from literally everything.
