Thank you so much anon for creating this thread! I know a lot of Nonnies will give it side eye due to the things that the fandom puts out and how kids are attracted to it because of the cute mascot horror but it's actually interesting if you give it a chance and ignore that. You can see that it's not really that childish at all and has a lot of dark undertones that will keep your attention.
My favorite game has to be Pizzeria simulator for its dialogue. It's beautiful and was a perfect send off for the story, Its where the canon should have ended. I also like 3, even if it does get a bad reputation I think it's visually amazing and develops it characters well.

As for the new movie…If you go to see it with someone who isn't a fan of the series, you'll be embarrassed out of pure cringe of trying to explain the lore from the games and the new lore. The movie is just a 'Hey look at that, it's an Easter egg!! Haha, laugh!' Type movie itself while also changing it's characters around and throwing out the story it's built over the years. which is expected but the lead up and "surpise twist" is predictable and anticlimactic. Watch it for the visuals and not the story line, Just like Mike in the movie, you'll be asleep for about half of it.

Okay I'll do the autism
>Who's your favorite and least favorite character?
My favorites include William and Michael. William because none of this would be happening if it weren't for him, and Michael because protagonist-wise, he carries like 60% of the story. My least favorite characters would be the Emily family because of how fucking random they are to the games. Back in the 3rd game, you can see that the child locked outside of the diner is clearly a little boy. Come sixth game, "oh look, it was actually a little girl named Charlie all along!"
>What's your favorite and least favorite FNAF game?
My most favorite game (as much as I don't really like the Emily family) has to be the sixth one because of how it's so written to finally be the end of the lore. My least favorite is the fourth because of how little it added to the lore in the grand scheme. Seriously, Fnaf 4 could be erased from existence and nothing would change.
>What's your opinion on the movie?

>When and how did you discover the FNAF franchise?

Sorry for the Sperg but I want to know what your headcanon for William is?
In my headcanon, I think William should have been depicted as a father who spiraled into madness following the tragic loss of his son. William being a character consumed by a mix of jealousy and grief would've made him seem more 'real' and sympathetic instead of just the mad scientist the games portray him as now. Imagine his character being driven by intense rage and grief to the point where it drives him to seek revenge by targeting his son's bullies, using the mascot suit to lore, and then murdering them.
It wouldn't have made sense for him to just go forward with rebranding after what happened to his child, so I'd like to imagine his business partner taking it into his own hands and not wanting the restaurant to be a lost. Then, I can see William later rejoining him as he tries to rebuild who he once was and get his life back together, only to find himself being envious of Henry's family life while his own family life was deteriorating; all the while convincing himself that Henry's creations played a role in killing his son. This could have been the reason why he killed Henry's daughter and the start of him getting his revenge and hiding the bodies.I feel like if he were portrayed as just a dad who spiraled into madness, it would have provided a motive for Williams' actions instead of him just being a random child murderer. Then, leading up to his death as spring trap and going 'missing' it would have given Michael a purpose as an adult, as he would have felt compelled to uncover clues on where his father went and make amends for his father's descent into madness. I'm sorry for the long essay, kek. I'm embarrassed but it's a headcanon I've been holding to myself and I'm trying hard not to write fanfiction and stories about.

Hell yeah finally a thread for this game,
>Who's your favorite and least favorite character?
If you're talking about animatronics it's W. chica, if humans it's William, i hate Mangle and the foxy-type characters.
>What's your favorite and least favorite FNAF game?
Favorites are fnaf 1, fnaf sl and fnaf 3, i don't like fnaf 2 because the gameplay is horrible but it has w.chica so i'm including it, also fuck Security Breach and any of the steel wool era slop.
>What's your opinion on the movie?

>I think William should have been depicted as a father who spiraled into madness following the tragic loss of his son.
I agree with this, i don't know why so many fans get angry when people suggest this to get canonized in the lore, it makes sense, to add on what you said Mrs Afton is never seen in the games, maybe if she died (Maybe by his own hands or someone else?) that's the reason he went insane too, this type of stuff happens irl, but anyways Scott doesn't know what he is doing like 99% of the time so were stuck with boring villain William. Also i hate when people especially men depict him as an ugly balding old hag i prefer when it looks similar to his comic depictions a la silver eyes, like a lanky well groomed old man, it fits his sprites imo kek

No. 330606

>>330604
Right? I don't understand why some fans find it bothersome, yet they're comfortable with him being a Dr. Frankenstein-type character with no motives behind his actions in the future games. It seems like Scott is reluctant to release the full story or at least something simple to go by in order to use it as a cash cow and leave it open for more adaptations. Oooh! I love your headcanon for Mrs. Afton. You're right, it makes sense that the stress of losing his wife and starting a new restaurant while raising three children would be stressful on him and the reason why his kids are constantly around the establishment and why young Michael bullies his siblings.
And if Mrs afton was still in the picture before the bite then I can see their relationship breaking apart because of the stress of losing their child and the way tragedies can drive families apart.

I also hate how he is often portrayed as a repulsive, overweight slob (their old offical artists work) or an unappealing balding old man too, kek. It doesn't help his image when he's just known as the "scary child murderer with no motives" Just like you I imagine him as an attractive tall man who is overly confident, charismatic, charming, and manipulative. I can picture him interacting with customers in his stylish suits as he lavishes money on himself all while grappling with financial challenges for the restaurant.
I also like the idea that Henry is the complete opposite of William, being a total pushover and more reserved and introverted, quietly managing the animatronics while William basks in the limelight and handles the business which is why his name is mostly well known rather than Henry's.

How do you guys feel about characters such as Glitchtrap/Vanessa/Ruins new characters?

I think security breach shouldn't be apart of the canon but I'd like to imagine Vanessa as a sort of scream-ish character where she's obsessive over William and his crimes and becomes a copycat.

Yes! and i always got these feels from Henry too, wouldn't say he's a total pushover but way more reserved than William, i don't know but he seems like the type of guy to have been really nerdy when younger and obsessed with stuff like Godzilla or whatever the hell geeks in the 70s were into. Picrel is how i imagine William looking like, or atleast something close to it like how Billybubone from your pic draws.

Also ugh i wanna watch the movie so bad to see how cringy it is but i don't have money to go watch it right now, im just waiting till i can pirate it, looks horrible from what i've seen but i've given up on expecting anything decent from this franchise at this point tbh.

Samefag. Today I watched the movie in the theatre and it was a lot of fun because there were a lot of fans, some where dressed as the characters. They would gasp, scream and clap at the easter eggs which to me made it a very enjoyable experience. That said the movie was meh, not good but not bad, fairly middle of the road in my opinion. I did however spect it to be more horror oriented (because of the B15 rating) but it was more kid friendly in the second half as it dipped its toes in fanfic territory. All in all is a perfect movie for fans and people who know/enjoy the games or some of the lore, not so much for newcomers, still I had tons of fun!

I work at a cinema and this movie has been a fucking nightmare. Kids are constantly trying to sneak in because it's somehow a 15, and the fact it released during half term doesn't help.

The movie was so fucking good. I got high beforehand and I honestly got emotional seeing the animatronics lmfao.

No. 331188

I have a theory regarding the movie. It didn't make sense how the lore changed in the movie, and the one part that bugged me the most was how Mike wasn't William's son and instead had some other random family. So I have a theory that Mike from the movie is actually William's son and so is Abby and they just didn't know this yet. The reason I think that is because when William, who was pretending to be a job counselor or maybe that was his actual job I didnt understand well, read Mike's first name on the paper and then paused before saying his last name. He changed his mind very quickly and suggested the security guard job out of the blue. Why would he refrain from saying his last name? Why did he change his mind? What did he know? Also the fact that Abby was able to influence the animatronics from one simple drawing may be symbolic, but I don't think she would be able to do that as an average kid. I also don't think that her connection with the animatronics would be so special, unless she was William's daughter. There is a hint there might be a second movie coming soon, because William didn't actually die, and they're huge cash grabs so making another will benefit them. And, this last speculation is kinda unusual, but I genuinely think that if Mike wasn't William's son, there would be a romance scene with Vanessa. I'm certain of it, that's how many movie plots go when there's a male and a female lead, even if it didn't fit the tone of the movie, if they weren't related surely they'd slip something more intimate in. Especially in that scene where Vanessa goes to visit Mike with the pill bottle in hand after Max (the babysitter) and her brother got killed by the animatronics. Maybe Abby would say something like "Is that your girlfriend?" Ignore my last point, the previous ones I'm more certain of. What do you think?

They probably changed it for the movie because the Afton family lore is a mess and underdeveloped. It was his actual job, it seems he recognized Mike and knows that he killed his brother so he found a quick way to get rid of him without Mike finding out he's the man reponsible for the kidnapping. The whole Abby drawing thing has paralels with the silver eyes books with how Charlie defeated Afton and the animatronics behind manipulated by William, besides that no idea.

Michael atleast can take a bath or use perfume, the animatronics are stuck with dead bodies inside them and they're in run down pizzerias or in who knows where using trash to replace their parts.

The movie plot was too focused on Mike's trauma dump and at times strayed away from the original game plot. Also it was a bit boring and many things were left unexplained probably on purpose so the producers can cash in on a sequel.

I can think of two main reasons.
1) Kids flooded the fanbase of FNaF, so it gives everyone else the impression that any FNaF fan is just a dumbass kid
2) Because kids flooded the fanbase, and the games always relying on jumpscares to play as horror, it gives everyone else the impression that FNaF is childish, and only for adults with horrid taste.
To be honest, I'm mainly here because I think the Afton family are an interesting set of characters, and I'm trying to make sense of the lore as best as I can.

A lot of the nonnies that are complaining are childish themselves.

This is probably going to be the biggest sperg of the thread at the moment, but this is the fnafag thread and I felt like get some lore takes off my chest:
I have no reason to believe crying child/bite victim/Evan Afton possesses Golden Freddy or ANY animatronic.
First of all, Evan died in a hospital, and you have audial evidence of this when you play and finish the 4th game. The rule of the FNaF universe and animatronic possession is that a person has to have died in very close proximity to an anthropomorphically shaped inanimate object (the animatronics). The puppet cradling Charlie when she was freshly dead and before her spirit moved on is exactly how the puppet got possessed by her, and the same thing happened with the rest of the animatronics because of that same rule (their bodies making contact with the suits to give life). With that being said, how can Evan possess Golden Freddy or any animatronic if he died in a hospital with no contact with any robot?
Secondly, Golden Freddy is a different animatronic from Fredbear (the one who bit Evan in '83). Fredbear has a purple hat, and a purple tie. Golden Freddy's hat and tie are black. They are designed differently, which supports them being different animatronics. Fredbear is at Fredbear's Family Diner, which is a different building from Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria. The Pizzeria is where the Missing Children's Incident takes place, and we know that Cassidy was the one who got stuffed into Golden Freddy, but why is this important? Because in FNaF4, the pigtailed girl gives us a hint that the animatronics "come to life at night" and even mentions the puppet (IIRC). But hold on, Freddy, Chica, Bonnie, and Foxy along with Golden Freddy are in the Pizzeria, and NOT at the Family Diner. So this means the Pizzeria and the Diner are two separate buildings that were both up and active at the same time for a while. So if we were to believe that Fredbear and Golden Freddy are the SAME animatronic, and we know the Pizzeria and the Diner were two buildings and active at the same time, how could Fredbear be in two different restaurants at once? IIRC, the phoneguy mentions "extra suits", and if we take into account that William used a Spring Bonnie suit at the Pizzeria to lure in the original five missing kids, the answer becomes clear: Golden Freddy is simply one of the extra animatronics that were created during the process of making the Pizzeria instead of being Fredbear himself. So even if Evan DID somehow possess Fredbear, he wouldn't be possessing Golden Freddy and the Pizzeria isn't even where he got bit.
Thirdly, the head count doesn't match up in the Happiest Day minigame of FNaF3. The Happiest Day birthday party table part of FNaF3 is to address the spirits of Charlie and the original missing five kids. But that's it, Charlie and the original missing five kids, which totals up to only SIX child spirits attempting to recollect their happiness and move on from animatronic possession. If we're going off of GoldenDuo being plausible, there should be SEVEN kids to include Evan's spirit, but there's only six which means that Evan can't be possessing Golden Freddy with Cassidy too, or even any.
GoldenDuo has got to be one of the most shilled theories in this fandom, but it just doesn't click for me because there are so many holes in its logic.

Sorry nonna but i can't accept this, CC being golden freddy is way too perfect, especially when you play as Michael and he says "it's me", maybe his soul transferred before he went to the hospital? He got his brain eaten and was basically a couch potato and a shell of himself that was still breathing at that point. The canon points to both CC and Cassidy possessing Golden Freddy i wonder what you think of that, in general if you think too much about the fnaf lore you can find a lot of plotholes and stuff that doesn't make sense like shadow bonnie, it's why i don't get theoryfags, you're gonna go insane trying to make sense of everything i just accept what's said to be canon and go with it.

So GoldenDuo is canon? I didn't see the movie yet, so is that the reason why everyone takes it as canon now? And I thought "it's me" was just the spirits trying to tell the night guards "hey, we're the missing kids of the town, please help us".

Well, the father in Midnight Motorist is clearly not William because he is orange. And don't come at me with the orange having
better visibility in rain and pixels bullshit, bright purple would do the same job, so there is clearly a reason he is orange and not purple. Hence, it's not William. So the kid who ran away was lured by a person in a suit (couldn't be an animatronic or a springlock suit due to the rain) I think the person luring the kid to run away from his abusive home was William in his glitchtrap fursuit which isn't metal and can't be corroded by rain. The kid is one of the victims, maybe Golden Freddy. The Fruity Maze game tells a story about the Chica victim, I don't see why Midnight Motorist couldn't be the same. Both tell a story about how William lured and manipulated the kids: He made a false promise of a safe haven to the boy in an abusive situation and then killed him in MM. And In Fruity Maze he told the girl her dead dog is alive in the safe room and he lured her there with this false promise.

Well, he is pathetic. He can't kill anyone but children, for God's sake! He could be easily overpowered by an adult who could strap him down and have their way with him. He's scrawny, skinny, unhinged and easly broken but also brilliant and smug as fuck. The Old Man Consequences' easter egg where we can hear him finally breaking down after being tortured for eternity is so satisfying to me. He is helpless, he's in agony, but he has no one. The only two people he begs for help are Michael and Henry, who want nothing but to see him suffer. He has no one, and that's so alluring to me. He's so sure of his immortality and that he will always come back, but in that moment he is just a broken pathetic little man, and I can't help but pity and love him.
I'm the kind of husbandofag who can't imagime herself actually in any romantic situation with her husbando, I just want to watch him suffer from the sidelines kek
I can't imagine myself helping him, but I for sure wouldn't mind seeing some other character putting him back together. I'd love to see how the consequences of his actions reflected on his psyche.
Sometimes I also just want to see him happy and safe, in a world where none of his children died by his own creations, but that's only sometimes
Eh, I have so many feelings for this human garbage stinky man

No. 333311

>>333302
The difference between Freddy Krueger and William Afton is that Freddy Krueger's movie was written to imply that he was a pedo. There is nothing in any canonical FNaF piece that implies William Afton sexually got off on killing kids, or even molested them. It's a power thing, it's a "mad scientist" thing, but it's not a pedo thing.

No. 333326

>>333302
Nah, I don't believe it from a logical perspective. FNaF has too big of an audience consisting of mainly children, even the movie is rated 13+. William being a pedo would be absolutely too dark for the kind of audience FNaF has, and it was never implied anywhere.

No. 333714

Some reasons why I think the yellow guy in Midnight Motorist is actually William.
>the beginning narration says "Later That Night". This phrase is used to imply that something of significance must have happened before any current time frame. So right away, it's implied that something "big" must have happened.
>the car is speeding off, almost like it's desperately trying to get away from something serious.
>car goes unnaturally fast for the time period and would require a gift with engineering. What person in Utah could engineer a super car other than Henry or William?
>Charlie's death scene features tire marks at the bottom of the ground which implies the killer showed up with and escaped via car
>the FNaF6 game that even features the Midnight Motorist mini story has Charlie's death and Henry's regret as a large detail, and we KNOW that William was her killer
So there it comes together. William shows up to the Pizzeria in his purple car, kills Charlie, and speeds off before anyone or any animatronic could catch him.

AYRT, I'd love to agree wih you because it's more William lore, but it just doesn't make sense if you consider the footprint. No animatronic would be able to lure anyone out of a house in the rain. Only a person in suit. Michael wouldn't want to get dressed in something resembling the tool that killed his brother, he's known to be the best at avoiding being stuffed in one untill it literally gets forced into his stomach kek
So if not Will, then who? Henry is out of the question by basis of fnaf 6, vanessa didn't even exist then yet, I'm sure… It's tough finding a definitve answer to the MM dillema, but I just choose to believe that the character being yellow is a clear sign of lacking in british genes. Not every bad character in fnaf has to be William, that's why it's so hard to find a replacement for him - everyone is automatically compared to him and inevitably pales.

>No animatronic would be able to lure anyone out of a house in the rain. Only a person in suit.
It can be two possibilities:
The Shadows, specifically Shadow Freddy luring BV out of the house (which would fit with the 'kids mistake what's in the shadows' quote). It may sound ridiculous, but we see Shadow Freddy luring actual animatronics in the "Follow Me" minigame of FNaF3.
Or a decoy animatronic to keep Michael from running away again. It could have been standing outside of Michael's room to make him more afraid of leaving, but its disappearance could've been Michael shoving the animatronic to run off.
>Michael wouldn't want to get dressed in something resembling the tool that killed his brother
But how would we be sure this takes place after '83? IMO, because FNaF6 is heavily about Henry and Charlie's struggles and fates, and we know that William is specifically the one who killed Charlie, the tire marks at the crime scene, and the car driving like a bat out of hell only aligns perfectly. The identity of the yellow man in Midnight Motorist makes so much sense if you consider that the minigame is merely the second half of Henry's montage about Charlie's death.

Because he's not that interesting outside of William. Besides the fnaf6 epic dialogue we don't have anything to work with when it comes to him. He's one of the most mysterious characters in the game (I consider the books a standalome canon and I don't base Henry on them) soo that basically means that he is a blank slate others can use to create a character that fits their idea of canon.

I liked security breach because it's like sister location where you can explore and you're not stuck in one place inspecting the cameras. I enjoy exploring and the jumpscares were plentiful, so it was a good horror game to play. I didn't buy it with my own money, someone got it to me as a gift so I can't say if it's really worth the price. I also loved the character designs, even though it's not one of my favorite FNAF games and it's not as scary as others. I liked Glamrock Freddy's design the most but my favorite was the Daycare attendant and my favorite part of the game. The game only lacks more actual plot, that was my least favorite part. And I don't have an opinion on William's return.

Why don't you initiate a discussion instead of bitching about the thread not heading in the direction you'd like it to? The entire franchise is built off of fan takes and without their theories (some wackier than others) it would just be another click and point.
I don't reply to bait but I get annoyed when someone complains about a thread not going the way they want it to without adding anything to lead it in a different way.

Anyways, nonnies what's your thought on the new VR release? Have you watched gameplay/played it yourself? What are your thoughts?

What are some of your favorite theories from previous games? What are your least favorite theories?

One theory I like at the moment is Jeremy is a friend of Michael Afton, and that Toy Bonnie was that one that bit Jeremy and thus caused the bite of '87. It's late so I can't quite get into it, but I like the theory.
>What are your least favorite theories?
Shit that just plain doesn't make any sense, like when people claim CC was scared of the suits and animatronics because he saw Elizabeth get killed by Baby. That theory feels illogical, because isn't a feature of Circus Baby that she can and does count the number of people in a room so that nobody will see her commit murder? If CC was there and present with Elizabeth at Circus Baby's Pizza World, Elizabeth wouldn't have died in the first place because Baby can't kill any kids unless they're completely alone. CC has issues with the suits and animatronics, but it can't be due to seeing Elizabeth die because Circus Baby only murdered without witnesses.
By the way, Merry Christmas FNAFaggots.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year nonny!

Controversial take in the fandom but I can't stand gametheory videos, I've never watched any of them because I found them too cringe to watch and I feel as though his takes complicated the story and fans.

I Found a new lore explanation video, added it to my watch later and I'd love to hear what other nonnies think of it, haven't watched it fully yet so excuse me if it's silly!

Also, we know that Mike is Williams eldest son but who do you think is the youngest? I saw some say that the Crying child is the youngest while others say he is the middle child and Elizabeth was born after the death of crying child, which do you prefer/believe is right?

Okay, since you're asking me, I'll do my best with piecing together who I think is the middle and youngest child of William's kiddos. Scott likes to hide details like what Mrs. Afton's first name even was, what exactly happened to her, and what was even supposed to be meant by "put you back together" for Crying Child's final coma moments…so this is gonna be a bunch of best guesses.

This is somewhat important for my explanation so let’s just get this out of the way. First of all, what even is remnant? Based on the best information we have, remnant is basically a soul or a piece of a soul. Let’s use Charlie as an example. Charlie dies, but just before her soul can pass on, the Puppet gets close to her body and the soul of Charlie gets binded to the Puppet’s animatronic form. It’s how possession is able to happen in the FNaF world and based on Michael’s fate, it can also grant immortality. So the metal bodies of the animatronics contain remnant (aka the souls). Alright that possessed, remnant-having metal can be converted into a molten-liquid form, which is ANOTHER form of remnant. Now that we got that out of the way, we can take the first step into cracking this case.

Elizabeth’s death is connected to the opening of Circus Baby's Pizza World because IIRC, she dies there and on the first day it opens to the public. But let’s look at details regarding Circus Baby’s Pizza World. It should be noted that Elizabeth only seems to be around five years old at the time of her death. The Funtime animatronics are designed to kidnap and/or kill, coupled with a giant mechanical scooping device that’s explicitly explained to store and inject remnant. So Circus Baby’s Pizza World must take place specifically during the point in time where William had discovered and decided to experiment further with remnant, otherwise why would he manufacture the animatronics and the scooper be so advanced with features for such a specific purpose? So with my best bet, William must have established Circus Baby’s Pizza World AFTER he has already “experimented” with death. Plus, we have to acknowledge that the technological advancement these animatronics have over any of the animatronics we’ve seen with Fredbear’s Family Diner, Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria, and even when the Pizzeria opened with the Toy animatronics. The Funtime animatronics seem a lot stronger, and much more pristine even with Funtime Freddy’s glitching problem. One can speculate that William was able to build the Funtime animatronics with a lot more impressive technological skill due to the better materials he would have most likely obtained after receiving necessary funds. Which would make sense, if Circus Baby’s Pizza World were to take place AFTER William already opened Fazbear’s Family Diner, the Original Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria, and the opening with the Toy Animatronics. HandUnit in Circus Baby’s Pizza World gives us a clue on when the establishment opened up. In HandUnit’s very words: “Due to the massive success and even more-so the unfortunate closing of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, it was clear that the stage was set – no pun intended – for another contender in children’s entertainment”. So my speculation was right, Circus Baby’s Pizza World opens AFTER the first few establishments. But let’s talk about those establishments for the big picture.

The very first establishment that William opened up was FredBear’s Family Diner, featuring only two animatronic characters: Fredbear and Springbonnie. But after that establishment, Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria gets introduced to the public, which features the characters: Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy, and the Puppet. We know that the puppet is here, because Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria is specifically where Charlie died. In the ‘Take Cake to Children’ minigame in FNaF 3, we see a child get murked right outside the restaurant that features the Freddy Fazbear animatronic serving cake to the children inside the building. The car is purple, the man is purple, and we eventually come to learn that the child-murderer is William Afton. But in Pizzeria Simulator, we learn that the child trapped outside the building was actually Charlie. As we learn that it was the Puppet who tried to help Charlie after her death, it was the Puppet that ended up being possessed by her. But why am I talking about this? Because if we look at the ‘Give Life’ minigame, the game is basically telling you that it was the PUPPET/CHARLIE who was stuffing the animatronics with the bodies of other children to give them and the animatronics themselves a new “life”. This is how the other animatronics got possessed across the restaurants, which must mean that the first and second round of missing kids happened AFTER Charlie got killed/starting possessing the Puppet FIRST…otherwise the souls wouldn’t have been possessing the other animatronics in the first place. So Charlie was the first to get killed, then the original missing children died like right after. So with six kids being dead at this point, it’s clear that William keeps coming back to kill more kids but based on the fact that he owns these companies and understood remnant and possession enough to make advanced devices about remnant, we can assume that William has been watching Puppet/Charlie from a distance and taking notes from her, which goes back to my point that he must have opened Circus Baby’s Pizza World after the first several restaurants. But speaking of the first several restaurants, we have to tackle a specific diner that’s the setting of FNaF 4: Fredbear’s.

Samefagging for (Part Two). NOW.
Okay, we all know that CC was in and out of Fredbear’s Family Diner, that Michael threw his brother at the bear, CC got bit and that was the Bite of ‘83. But that’s it right there. The Bite of ‘83, implying that the string of CC’s events took place in 1983. On the TV, we get an easter egg, showing Foxy, Freddy, and basically the animatronics that were present over at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria and NOT at Fredbear’s Family Diner specifically. It also flashes the date “1983”. To me, this implies that during some of 1983 (especially where CC has his story), Fredbear’s Family Diner and Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria are two separate buildings and running at the same time. Then we get to the part where we talk to that NPC, pig-tailed girl. She tells CC to “be careful” as “they come to life at night”. It’s extremely clear that this is the game heavily implying that animatronic possession has already begun by the time 1983 became the year. The girl continues to say “and if you die, they hide your body and never tell anyone”. This also heavily implies (again) that children have gone missing at Freddy’s before, which is such a glaring implication that the Missing Children’s Incident and even rumors about it have already occurred at this point (at least to me), but not that long ago. But the details about how Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria plays into the timeline doesn’t end there. Remember what HandUnit said about Freddy Fazbear’s closing down? Again, in HandUnit’s very words: “Due to the massive success and even more-so the unfortunate closing of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, it was clear that the stage was set – no pun intended – for another contender in children’s entertainment”. Again, Circus Baby’s Pizza World opened AFTER Freddy’s closed down. Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria is supposed to be the improved and more attracting successor to Fredbear’s Family Diner, and yet Freddy’s still closed down during this point of Circus Baby’s creation. It’s very likely at this point that Fredbear’s Family Diner is also closed down by this point in the timeline, and we do know that CC got bit and died at the point when Fredbear’s Family Diner WAS open to the public. However, we also know that Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria reopened with the Toy animatronics at around 1987 (due to the Bite of ‘87 heavily implied to take place there). HandUnit wouldn’t mention that Freddy’s is closed if it was already reopened with new, shiny animatronics based on the company’s toyline, so Circus Baby’s Pizza World MUST take place sometime AFTER 1983 (the year CC died), but BEFORE 1987. Perhaps right smack in 1985. So there, I’m at the point where I believe CC died BEFORE Elizabeth did. But I ain’t done. Let’s take a look at Elizabeth and CC.

Elizabeth and CC look roughly the same age in their own appearances in their respective games. They each look to be around 5 years old. Maybe six or even seven. Either way, both look pretty young and roughly the same age. But if we know that CC at, say five years old in 1983…and Elizabeth died at five years old sometime AFTER 1983…this means that Elizabeth would’ve been something like a TODDLER during the events of 1983. Look at the Toy Foxy (Mangle) toy in the sister’s room of FNaF 4. It doesn’t seem like an interesting detail, but the PhoneGuy in FNaF 2 gives us an implication about which type of children Toy Foxy (Mangle) was meant for: “They tried to remake Foxy, ya know? Uh, they thought the first one was too scary, so they redesigned him to be more kid-friendly and put him in Kid's Cove. To keep the toddlers entertained, you know… But kids these days just can't keep their hands to themselves”. TODDLERS. He mentioned Toy Foxy (Mangle) being designed and meant for TODDLERS. The Toy Foxy (Mangle) doll being in the sister’s room is there because the sister was a toddler, and Toy Foxy (Mangle) was designed for children her age (which makes sense, because toddlers are known for destroying their own toys. What’s a better toy for a toddler than something meant to be taken apart?). Some would say that the bed in the sister’s room would be too big for Elizabeth if she was just three, but that’s wrong. It’s normal for toddlers to sleep in beds for themselves, because age 3 is normally when parents transition their kids from sleeping in a crib, to sleeping in an actual bed…

So in case you didn’t feel like reading all that, basically: I believe that CC is the middle child, and Elizabeth is the youngest.

How do you think the movie should have gone if it didn't take such a child-friendly approach?
As much as I love Michael I don't think he should've been in the first movie or at least not until the end, the movie is visually pleasing and the setting is amazing but the lore doesn't make sense to me and they tried to fit in too much Easter eggs.

I think the main character should have been Henry, I would have loved a movie where Henry is a drunk depressed father searching for closure on what truly happened to his daughter by returning to find clues and the thought of him being in denial of William having a part in it would also be interesting. The movie could have had Henry investigate and discover things aren't what they seem at the Pizzeria and by having henry be the main character it can open up to flashbacks as well as explain the lore.
Then, towards the end, we could see Michael grab a flyer that says Help wanted for a position as a nightguard if they really wanted him to make an appearance.

-or, If they truly wanted Michael to be the main character it could have gone as I wrote before with him searching for clues on what happened to his father; The restaurant could have been closed down due to lawsuits and abandoned, Henry could have been framed for the murders and William could have been 'missing' which leads Michael to search for clues about his father, He could discover that the restaurant is haunted and uncover fathers has been hidden in the restaurant as a decaying corpse for years as springtrap as well as William being behind everything that happened.

Scott could have had a solid villain, both of William's forms and appearances were perfect until they decided to butcher his character and make him into a joke.
The movie made him into an idiot and a creep who kills for no reason.
Why would he kill in his own restaurant without a purpose? His dialogue in the movie was also so cringey and I feel like the game should just retire his character before he gets overused and should have kept Vanessa as an unrelated character who is obsessed with Williams crimes

That would be hilarious because there's the common theory that William didn't believe Michael was his child during Michael's childhood, yet Michael is implied to really be William's son because Michael canonically looks just like him. Yet Elizabeth is his most "different" looking child, and she's the closest thing he has to a favorite. So if it's Elizabeth that ISN'T his kid, that would be hilarious. Would be sad on Elizabeth and Henry's part, because that would mean Elizabeth could have had a much longer and happy life if she was with Henry.

Okay question of the day for fnafags: what is your tier list of intelligence for the "main" protagonists/antagonists?
Game-wise,
>I would obviously put William and Henry for tied at the very top. William was able to engineer his own super car, make animatronics with AI so advanced that they're basically sapient like humans, studied Charlie's death and quickly learned how possession works to the advanced level of discovering and figuring out how to extract REMNANT: the key to immortality. Henry is not to be ignored though, he also made animatronics that were objectively advanced for the time period the diners were supposed to peak in, he was William's partner in business and engineering. He didn't make robots with AI as advanced as the funtimes, but I feel like the obvious reason is because he was just never had a reason to go that hard with his work. He just wanted a simple establishment for families. You gotta give him credit for effectively planning and successfully trapping every single possessed animatronic, including what was basically William, and burning them to finally free their souls.
>Right below William and Henry, I would immidiately place Michael. He is the night guard of Fnaf 1, Fnaf 2 (if you believe he's Fritz Smith), and probably Fnaf 3 (based on your take). He's the main protagonist of Fnaf SL, and Fnaf 6. Aside from getting manipulated by Circus Baby (which tbh is possessed by his little sister so I can understand him getting manipulated), Michael was intelligent enough to survive the animatronics by learning their patterns and taking advantage of the tools he has in any situation, and that's not even mentioning the fact that he has objective knowledge and skill of engineering/mechanics. Think about the gameplay of any Fnaf game before Security Breach, and now imagine trying to actually dodge and use limited resources against IRL robots that are sapient and strong enough to kill you. 90% of people would've died before reaching the final night. But again, apart from getting tricked by Circus Baby, Michael casually survived all those animatronics like it was nothing at point blank. If he was a real person, he would objectively be above average intelligence. I place him above Puppet/Charlie because if he is Fritz Smith, that means he waltzed through her attempts to kill him like it was just a job.
>Next I put Charlie/Puppet right below Michael simply because he had enough intelligence to avoid getting killed by her attempts. Elizabeth/Circus Baby can either be tied with Charlie/Puppet or maybe tied with Michael because of the fact that she DID manipulate him, but also fell for his bait and got trapped in Fnaf 6.
>Cassidy/Golden Freddy would only be slightly above Grabiel/Freddy Fazbear just because she has enough supernatural understanding to create a pocket limbo in which William gets tortured by a giant roster of animatronics. It took Cassidy longer than Charlie to realize that all those random night guards aren't William, so naturally she goes below Charlie.
>Freddy Fazbear is the smartest "normie" animatronic just for the fact that he's the hardest to square up with in Fnaf 1 because of his pattern.

I'm ignoring the Glamrocks by the way.

fnafags, what highly popular theory or widely accepted headcanon do you actually disagree with or don't like?

Crying child's name being Evan, anything involving the mimic tbh.
I also hate fnaf fanbase discouraging "wilder" theorizing despite the fact they believe in dumb bullshit themselves, "Noo the tv guy has to be Mike because of grey and tv!"
Cassidy in general too tbh, I miss the fanbase before SB, it feels like any type of theorizing or "wrong" headcanons get you crucified.

Oh yeah, didn't some dude use the Fnaf Log Book and actually solved the child's name to be David? Honestly, I'm going with David just because Evan just doesn't sound quite right for some crybaby in 1980 Utah, to me. Evan at least worked way better than fucking "Chris" though kek

I like Dave because the idea of Afton using his dead kid's name is very interesting and has potential. Yeah, but Evan theorists can be very obnoxious if you use the "wrong" name, atleast Chris fans know it's just an hc

Theres no reason for Cassidy to get shoehorned into the lore, they use the "the one you shouldnt have killed" dialogue as proof that Cassidy is a thing, when this dialogue could 100% be applied to CC's case with his father tampering with the animatronics. I cope with the fact that Security Breach made Cassidy canon by considering everything from the Steel Wool era non-canon or an alternate universe like the rest of the fans do, their games suck ass anyways.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I genuinely just don't give a fuck about Security Breach. To my mind, Fnaf core story truly ended at Pizzeria Simulator. Gregory, Vanessa/Vanny and all that shit? To me, that's just a random branch in the timeline.

So apparently Steel Wool fucked up the games lore again because of the Secret of the Mimic stuff, fuck this franchise im gonna be a nostalgiafag forever

>>437225
I wish Scott or Steel Wool would just tell us in a social media post or something that the original story is separated from the Steel Wool era one so people don't get dogpilled from believing they should be separate by the rest of fans. Like when Scott said the books were a separate canon etc and everyone heard him(Despite him shoving book lore into his games like the hypocrite he is lol), we need answers and less theory-bait at this point
Also i want a pizzeria exploration game with Michael and Henry a la pizzeria simulator in it cuz a girl can dream, alright?
