The only FNaF thing that could truly fit in my opinion is this: https://www.reddit.com/r/deadbydaylight/comments/ek0i0k/finalized_springtrap_the_attraction_concept_kit/ (disregarding some of the perks and whatnot, just in general the theme could). If it's executed like that, I'd for sure buy it and it would make a great fit.
Actual animatronics just walking around? Wouldn't fit. A rotting, sentient, human corpse in a mascot costume who is psychotic and wants to kill you to experiment on your body? Sure.
I think that people just see FNaF and want to stay far away from it, which is perfectly understandable. However, with the uproar on that Reddit post, I think the majority of people would be fine if it was executed like that.
If it's executed similar to that fan concept, I along with a lot of others would love seeing this. It's really just something that people will love if made well and hate if it's not good; that's it. And if someone still continues to hate on the idea when it's out and well made, they would be the minority.

I think that it happened because before, everyone looked at the wrong side of it. Reasonably so, an animatronic walking around would not fit in the game. However, the focus seems to be on a well-modeled and a great fan teaser that is circulating that I posted about here, about Springtrap: he's not an animatronic, he's a rotting corpse in a bloody mascot costume who is sentient and intentionally murderous and sinister.
I think switching the focus within FNaF made people interested and like the idea.

With Springtrap, hell yeah it does.
He isn't a robot, he's a sentient corpse that's rotting inside of a mascot costume. He's a sinister, murderous beast, as seen when he talks:
- "Hide if you want, it did not save the others. It will not save you."
- "Let's see how many times you can be pulled apart and put back together again."
- "You will not be spared, you will not be saved!"
If he was in fact a normal animatronic, I wouldn't support this at all. But he's a murderous psychopath corpse in a rotting suit and a dripping corpse; hell yeah I'd play him!

Here is the original submission to the official Dead by Daylight subreddit, which racked up a positive outburst to this possible killer:
-
I think this sums of the majority of the community's reaction.
There was FNaF hate, simply because there was an influx of just horrible ideas (as I can say as a fan of FNaF and DBD) where people categorized all FNaF as FNaF as a result. Now, it seems to have died down as seen with the reactions to that post.
-
I initially thought that people would hate it, but it's mainly just that many from the FNaF suggested the wrong type of character. I posted this on the official Dead by Daylight subreddit community, and people REALLY like it who aren't even fans of FNaF.
I think it seems like it would never be taken, or there would be an imbalance, but with FNaF taking a more mature path with its games (i.e. the establishment of a violent cult, a huge 2020 game in Unreal Engine 4, etc.) I think that people are starting to accept it more... even in this community.
I think that people were scared that it wouldn't be executed well, but when they see something like this, how it SHOULD be, they really like it!

Thanks, almost forgot to credit!
- I edited the entire teaser itself. The background is actually in-game from FNaF as an ending cutscene. I used mist and various other atmospheric edits that were simply stock images.
- Down to the real credits, the Springtrap render is most likely done by Misterfab1970. I believe he did the model and render, I found it on Deviantart and nowhere else exclusively. This is what I assume because I could not find a concrete answer.
- Essentially, I did the teaser and the only actual crediting thing was the Springtrap model.
