Okay to answer a few questions you had:

First: Why do they need a night guard? Well, you're right. The animatronics would keep people out but, who's going to keep them in? If there was no night guard, the animatronics would most likely leave the building in search of people. The owners of the place obviously know that since the phone guy mentions on the first night "They don't tell you that when you sign on".

2. Why did the guy never leave? You have to remember, you don't know who the main guard is. Michal, for all we know was someone who heard about this place and willingly chose to work here. My best guess is that he's a thrill seeker. And I think we all know how far some of those type of people are willing to go to get them. But again, that's just a theory.

3. You're right, he could probably get back to the office before they caught him, but I think you're forgetting something. All the mascots move the same as foxy. Think about you look at the camera where all three are on stage then it glitches for 2 seconds and suddenly they're outside your door. And we all know that the stage is on the other side of the store. Now, we only assumed that these things walked because they're always standing in place when we look at a camera, but remember if you look at them long enough in each one you'll see how their heads will move faster than you would think. Like it would flicker in place. That's not a glitch in the camera. That's the animatronic. Which hints they're faster than you would think. I mean even when the lights go out, and Freddy is still on stage look how fast it takes for him to suddenly appear at the door playing the music.

4. While I know this wasn't a question, I couldn't help but notice you stated, " And HELL, you even get fired after you beat the game! Now isn't that kind of stupid to you? Yep, I thought so." Well that night may have been more of a joke than anything. Remember the reasons why he was fired? "Tampering, odor" The tampering could be that he messed with the animatronics and increased their hostility level hence the "Custom Night" when setting each character's difficulty. Odor, obviously because who wouldn't be sweating after making it that hard and being that nervous? 

And lastly the overall design of the game. Scott, the game's creator, wasn't expecting to do well when he made this game. The few previous games he created got bad rep since people complained they looked "Too fake" and "Animatronic" which is why he made this game. As for it being horrific, I guess that depends on the player more than anything. Yes, this would scare some, but some others would. The idea that these little animatronics that sing and dance every day are coming to kill you? And that they contained the bodies of dead children? That's spooky? And the scares lie more in the story more than the game. I'm assuming you've heard the story, but just to quickly summarize it if you hadn't: the pizzeria had been opened and shut down twice in the past. The first time it opened was in '87 (FNaF2) and someone (most likely one of the workers and my guess would be the person you play as in the 2nd one) dressed up as Golden Freddy and killed kids and stuffed them into the suits. Which is supposedly why they're haunted.
