    I love how this game didn't go for the route of making afton/springtrap the final boss/ main villain, but instead used mangle and Cassidy. Kinda of a interesting route to go with.

    I like how the animatronic designs look and feel closer to what animatronics actually look like. Most animatronic suits don't have many segmented parts to the costume. The withering also feels more realistic than the ones in the official games.
    These designs specifically seem to be based on those at Showbiz Pizza, the arcade pizzeria with animatronic designs that fell further into the uncanny valley than Chuck E. Cheese ever did.

    What I always find funny is that after the investigation is over and Jeremy finishes the 6th night, as far as we know the Mangle is just kinda… left there. Unlike the Ghost, the Mangle is a physical object. So when Jr’s eventually gets refurbished and reopened, you KNOW some poor construction worker had to have gone down into the basement and seen that giant metal multi-legged monstrosity just sitting there. Imagine you’re clearing a building to be reopened and you just find a nine-foot-tall metal deathtrap made from the parts of old animatronic characters staring back at you.

      However in the oficial games, mangle was named as “Funtime foxy”, not to be confused with the sister location “Funtime foxy”, and eventually got nicknamed as “the mangle” due to it being torn apart by toddlers, so officially, mangle wasn’t built out of the other animatronics. Tbh I like the concept of mangle being made up of other animatronics, just like Ennard, rather than it being torn by toddlers- but it’s not the official lore

    I like the idea of Jeremy being a paranormal investigator. It gives him a better motivation for having to keep going back night after night. Michael Smidt (Who is also Michael Afton), I understood why he kept returning each night. Because he tried to stop the curse but to no avail. But it also makes it tragic that Jeremy would become the Bite of '87 victim.

    I think it's extremely interesting that this take on The Mangle winds up having some very fascinating parallels to Ennard from Sister Location. Both are horrific mashups of multiple animatronics with the one controlling it being the spirit of a deceased female child, and both were created with the intention of attacking one of the Aftons children. But Ennard was piloted by Aftons daughter and was attacking a living Afton physically, but bore no ill will towards him and only wished to steal his body. The Mangle, meanwhile, was piloted by one of Aftons victims and was also targeting an Afton, but this time it was the spirit of a deceased Afton rather than the living Afton. And unlike Ennard, Mangle very much bore ill will towards the Afton she was after.

    Personally, I felt like that ending was too abruptly cut short. I feel like there was a bit more to be shown off there but the creator was at a deadline of sorts before they could implement it in fully.
    As for that arcade cabinet, I don’t think that’s meant to be operational at this time. I think that’s just meant to be for decoration and that’s it. Though I could be wrong and the creator may have something else planned for the game in terms of providing more content. Heck if true, it would be nice to have some interactions with the other spirits implemented. Many have ignored them so much that I don’t know if they have a presence of their own in the game’s main hub.

    I really like how the creator decides to fill in the gaps of the story that have been unexplained, like who is Mangle? How did Fnaf 2 come into play? Expanding on unexplained mysteries is so good if done right and if they aren't even true.
    But I think it might be the whole point of Fnaf, it started off as a horror game that raises so many mysterious questions that have either been answered or not and I think that's why people loved it when it started, a mysterious horror game with so much unexplained questions that people can develop their own theories and stories.
    And Jr.'s, not only did it decide to expand on unexplained mysteries, but just the design of the animatronics is just so creepy and realistic.

    It's fascinating how many years later, a series like FNAF still goes on and fans help expand on the universe. As someone who lived near the first and best CEC in San Jose CA, I've always loved the FNAF series purely by the setup and design alone. Same with JR's here with it's Rockafire-inspired design. I can't really comment on Security Breach because it's all sort of confusing to me that even MatPat's videos can't really clear it up for me, but outside of that I just find it amazing how a game about haunted animatronics continues to impress almost 10 years after it's release, both impress and evolve I should say.
    I don't play these games not because I don't like horror games, but I've seen Markiplier beat these games on the hardest difficulties and I don't really have the speed/strength for that sort of thing as I used to. These days I kinda prefer to watch and just uncover it all with them. It just feels a lot more fun to join others and piece it together than actually play these games, imo.

    I'm gonna go against everyone and say that the ghost is Charlie, NOT Cassidy. My reasoning is that Charlie and Evan both were well before the five missing kids, of which Cassidy was a part of. I honestly believe that Charlie probably changed over the course of the years between her death and FN@F 2. It was surprising to me that she wasn't angry in UCN.
    It only makes sense in my mind that she realized during the events of this game that she was doing more harm by being irrationally angry.

      Of course, ALL of this is thrown into question when taking into consideration the newest theory: Many of the first games are more than likely fabricated due to Fazbear Entertainment.

    @wen_and_only Год назад +4

    I think the Crying Child Paulbear theory holds up but its kinda a jump to assume Paulbear was a child immediately (probably bc of his size). Cassidy wouldn't have motive to chase after him all those years and his size in a bear "costume" may have just been due to trying to seem unthreatening to the protag while he is hiding in his mind. I think there is evidence enough to not quite rule out William Afton from the pool of characters, esp since the note left makes it seem that he is much craftier than meets the eye.

    My only criticism would be, if the spirit is Cassidy and Paul Bear is The Crying Child (not calling him Evan because that's up for heavy debate) then how do they both come to reside in Golden Freddy? The game implies that Paul Bear escapes the barren and the spirit gets locked inside. So, under the assumption that they ate Cassidy and CC, how are they both later inside Golden Freddy? Other than that, every thing else was a great deduction.

    For every jumpscare with a character portrait. Most are just kinda generally horrific but foxy, the character most reminiscent of mangle, is the only one where you pgywically see the ghost hands coming out of the suit.

    So a couple of thingies I wanted to bring up. Assuming the date on the check we receive is accurate to the date fnaf2 takes place, fnaf2 takes place in 1987 so five years ago would be 1982. 1 year before the events of fnaf4’s assumed date of 1983. Another detail someone in Astral Spiff’s discord brought up was that the mangle you can find in CC’s house actually looks like it has the little tail nearby. Of course this isn’t that solid as Im pretty sure these are different canons but I thought it would be interesting to share. Another detail that I noticed was that in the “foxy was haunted” image you can see a bunch of human like fingers clasped around his head. When I looked at the other hauntings I didn’t see anything like that. And I could be blanking on something massive but I don’t remember seeing foxy get haunted in the vhs tapes. All those details make me think that the ghost’s original host was foxy especially since the foxy parts are most obvious on Mangle.
