Personally, I love Bendy & The Ink Machine. The atmospheric horror, the visual style and the characters are so well done. The gameplay lacks in several departments, but its overall a really enjoyable experience.

My favourite is Bendy & The Dark Revival. One of its best aspects is how they reinvented the art style while still staying faithful to the original. The story was quite thrilling as well and effectively tied up the loose ends left by BATIM. There's a noticeable improvement in combat and gameplay as well. Though it's not perfect, I still love it.

Yea, BATDR was really enjoyable as well. I loved using the new Flow ability to get around. I do agree though that the combat was far from perfect, but still an improvement over BATIM. The music and atmosphere was quite cool as well.

Just curious, what's your opinion on the randomly generated worlds of BATDS? Would you like to see it in future games?

Randomly generated worlds are fine, but they have to be done quite well for it to enjoyable, which BATDS couldn't manage to do. Also, the game was was mostly made as filler content to keep the community entertained while BATDR was being developed and as such, not a lot of effort was put into it.
