[@StarkMaximum]

I cannot BELIEVE the original build had jumpscares in the item boxes! I spent this WHOLE GAME assuming at LEAST one of those was coming, just because of the way they open so slowly with a rapidly increasing music jingle. It is so satisfying to know that it WAS planned, and just never happened. Also, I kind of prefer the idea that if Freddy runs out of power, he just kicks you out and becomes inert. I never understood, in-universe, why he pulls you out and kills you if he RUNS OUT of power. I think it makes more sense if running out of power just makes him unusable, which would LIKELY lead to your demise because you need him for so many things and he's a safety feature, but allows you to continue running around and trying to finesse on the bots.

[@XJ-0641]

The problem with freddy becoming inert is like. if he cant move, how does he get to the recharge station. Like I know game mechanics wise you can just go in as gregory, but from a flavor standpoint that would be a huge plot hole.

[@thehuman20020]

i think he kills gregory when he runs out of power because of what happens at 2 am when Moon "kidnaps" freddy. he had undergone a power upgrade and his battery depleted faster, maybe the upgrade activated some kind of protocol that made freddy aggressive when out of power

[@wolfgamer5983]

First part is a special survivor mode and the second part I agree with

[@myaltaccount4438]

That's actually a brilliant idea. When playing the game I personally found the security bots way more scary than the murder robots hunting me down in this 80s themed mall, and I think a large part of that was every time I got caught by them there was a panic that followed. Roxy Kills Me: Ughhh I'm gonna have to approach this situation a different way. Security Bot Makes a Noise: *SHHHHHHHHH STAHP THEY'RE GONNA FIND ME AHHH* (ensuing panic and chaos as I try to escape the newly spawned and agro'd animatronics/ relief if the animatronics don't spawn because security breach) I think having consequences that aren't just RAH GAME OVER (which feels kinda cheap) for Freddy would've made this game so much better.

I remember looking at the early trailers and screenshots of Security Breach while comparing them to the final game, and I could almost immediatly tell something wasn't right with the final version of SB. There could have been a lot of factors into why SB was clearly altered as drastically as it was, it could have been related to Scott's controversy, it could have been related to Scott lending the directorial duties to someone else, it could have been thank to COVID, or all of the above. But one thing is for sure, this game is not what we were supposed to get at one point.

[@DrMonty-ng5fo]

I think a lot of it (especially the lighting) was just due to bad programming.

[@ratbastard7224]

It was because they were pressured to finish the game as well

[@DoctorTheo]

I also think Sony might have had a big hand in it too.

[@creaperreaper6676]

Pretty sure the main factor was Sony pressuring them into releasing the game. We the players were so excited for it to come out but then release dates got changed and Sony wasn’t having it. They wanted the game to come out to “please us” when in reality Sony wanted to get as much money as possible and knew we were all eager to buy the game. This inevitably led them to chopping the game up and serving some mess of a dish

[@SecuR0M]

@@DoctorTheo No. Publishers just give deadlines. Developers do work, ergo it's always the developer's fault if the development is flawed in some way. This isn't flawed though, it's just an early build that had some stuff removed from it. Who cares? That happens all the time because developers are historically and industrially predisposed to think more of themselves than they actually are, which is why they to assume they can do more than they actually can within a timeline. The game itself is okay. So the developers weren't incompetent in the slightest, but it is never the publisher's fault that the developers didn't meet the deadline, because there's no such thing as an impossible deadline.

[@star-nomad]

believe it or not, the ending cutscenes are accurate to what storyboarding is like for pretty much everything. as long as your drawing sequences successfully convey what you want, they shouldn't have to be anything fancy since they're not final and no one really gets to see them. which can lead to some really funny drawings, lmao

[@brb.8962]

This reminds me. The animation "In Search Of The Yello Dello" has a different art style compared to every other toon in its website because it was actually animated around the storyboards, so there are a lot of moments where the characters look completely off model and weird and a bit goofy.

[@Leet-iz2fz]

I'm actually surprised, I expected this version to crash more. honestly? I think the final version of SB is worse when it comes to breaking. And personally, this build is more of a realistic experience if you think about it. They shut down the lights, just like in every single mall in real life. No mall goes with full lighting set up after closing. The fog added a bit more of a darker feeling to it. it did remind one to some kind of horror game. also, purple eyed Freddy. THE experience.

The sphere in the light test room with the Pizzaplex texture is likely a reflection map of sorts.

Now I'm beginning to suspect that they were originally supposed to be possessing the conspicuous plushies found in hiding spots throughout the game. Perhaps there was a plan for a sidequest where you hunt for plushies and you have to keep your eyes peeled for the ones that were shaking or had lighted eyes. Ooooh, the lighted eyes thing would totally mesh with that cardboard cutout side-quest. And then in Ruin they reused the idea with the Cautionbots.

[@JMotion]

Things like this remind me how fucked up this industry can be sometimes. They were likely coerced to drop that first teaser trailer way sooner than they should have, and from that moment on the game they wanted to make was doomed. As soon as that trailer got released, they had not only the fans, but the executives with dollar signs in their eyes, breathing down their necks with two very tough expectations to meet; fans want the game to be this amazing perfect product, and higher-ups want the game out as soon as possible so it can start turning a profit. Those clashing forces effectively force the studio to cut content to ensure the ship doesn't sink on it's way to shore. There's a timeline out there where Steel Wool didn't begin marketing for this game until they'd finished primary development, and were merely spending the last few months patching bugs while marketing took place. Oh to live in that timeline... Frankly though, I'm still miffed that Vanny turned out to be such a shit character.

Really since it is a unreal engine game the community might be able to remake this game from scratch. Reusing the assets and just make a better game then the people wanting what $60 for a broken mess. No really being serious. It it very likely if laws where ignored and people cared to work on it. It just is possible to remake SB with effort and such but reasonable considering full out fan games are made for FNAF. There really is nothing special game design wise with this game. Just the mall and assets being anything that sticks out as decent. No real magic sauce like say Kerbal Space Program etc. Just very basic 3d Unreal stuff. Redoing the code and accepting changes that might bring had made SB probably not a broken mess. Ditch the raytracing etc etc. Or what do I know maybe one can do it right in the first place and still have a working game at the end.

Fun thing I learned today is that if you play the most recent update on PS4 and play the PQ2 minigame before the DJMM chase sequence it'll skip it and cause some odd things to happen. One of these is that occasionally when getting spotted by a staff bot the busted AI Chica will spawn in place of a properly functioning animatronic. Glad to see that no matter how many bandaids Steel Wool slaps on this game it'll continue to be a flawless broken mess.

The interesting take away from this game... is none of the issues were actually Steel Wool's fault. It was whoever decided to push out an unfinished game and not give them time. Even the "invisible walls" they added were likely not given time. Whoever wanted the game out wanted as much money with at little cost as possible. Greed was the flaw with this game.

[@gee266]

idk, spiff even mentions that the endings are STILL storyboards - this implies they were always meant to be. A lot of the issues with this game were plot related (which seems unchanged), and the forking path where one path is wayy more helpful still seems to exist i think (?) Greed/crunch/rushing was defo a huge aspect and I'm glad thats been proved, but even with more time to finesse this game still would've have had issues.
