  • The main issue was IT the team never said no on phobias and clowns, and Behavior studios decided to do it despite in streams and questions they said no.

  • After this I decided to look into phobias.

    Here’s what I found.

    In the Vox poll - which involved 1,999 Americans and was conducted from 15-17 October this year - 42 percent of people surveyed said they were, in some way, afraid of clowns.Oct 25, 2016


    According to the American Psychiatric Association, phobias affect more than one in ten people in the US, and of those individuals, up to 40% of phobias are related to bugs (including spiders), mice, snake and bats. There are clearly a lot of arachnophobes. But do they know why they fear spiders?May 20, 2015


    while fear of doctors 
    David Yusko, clinical director at the University of Pennsylvania's Center for the Treatment and Study of Anxiety, treats patients with iatrophobia – the medical name for fear of doctors. He says the phobia probably affects about 3 percent of the population.


    Therefore research would point they didn’t cater for doctor fears because 3% and honestly most are more afraid of doctors because of needles rather than the doctor themselves. (In some websites I found it was 3 up to 10%)


    So to cater to 40%  isn’t catering it’s more respecting in my opinion.


    If over 40% of a population has an issue it’s best to respect it and move on from it, do it makes more sense to honor it because it’s not a tiny percentage like a doctor  at 3, it’s actually a really large percentage.

  • I personally hate the fact that they said never, and they respectfully said due to phobias they wouldnt, instead they went back on their word and did it, my issue is some people cant handle these things, if they added a spider killer I’d be scared fully, deathly afraid of them, but OP has a valid opinion they did lie, it is their game but if everyone quits due to their irrational fears they dont have a game.

    I understand the frustration, and I agree at least on the Clown and potentially other killers whom might have a phobia associated with them.
