[@Wandervenn]

​@@MonsterPrincessLala I think it's confidence when Fuhnaff is responding to Matt calling him out on something he is equally at fault for doing in his own theories. It's just a good bit of back and forth. He has back down on parts of his theory that are wonky, but if he thinks his theory has merit he needs to he able to defend it long enough to continue to video and not have Matt trying to tear it apart on assumption and making decisions before the evidence is presented. Matt is just as able to be biased as anyone else and it feels good to hear someone call that out. On the videos where they just reacted without Fuhnaff, Matt came across very... dismissive before even getting to the evidence, as if he hasnt had some really out there claims himself.

@@amazinggrace9073 The production of FNAF is essentially no longer in Scott's hands, but Steel Wool Studios. He is still technically a consultant, I think, and is credited for a lot of the work done (it's possible that his name on the books is purely due to his being the creator, rather than actually doing any writing). But after the 2020 elections he stepped away from the public eye, aka, retiring.

He's not actually retired. He just said he did and went quiet for a while to get the crazies off his back.

[@Cooe.]

​@@collectorofmyst2107This is very much a lie. He's still the main writer of all the stories. (At least the main ones that actually matter).

He just said he "retired" and went quiet for a long time to get the cancel culture lunatic POS' of his back.

This really shows how insane this game and its lore are, if you can spend an hour long reaction video mostly debating the shape of feet and number of toes you know you have gone too far down the rabbit hole.

[@darak229]

I love how they're arguing toes and body shape for if the Funtimes could be using illusion disks to be Nightmares, when the books straight up show the illusion disks can make very crappy robots on rails look like a human woman and child to a person. Illusion disks have so much plot power that the original thing doesn't have to look ANYTHING like what it's trying to look like

[@Joe-cc9it]

I think the big issue is its unclear what illusion discs actually do. Yeah it can look totally different but then you get to like, footprints and the like at which point you have to ask 'do they physically shift the fundamental shape of the matter at hand. In my opinion it'd be dumb if they do, but then you get into babies like 3 forms in the book of human, big baby, slender baby. Ultimately they're no desperately clear and in the franchise with faz goo I think getting straight answers on lore without massively cleaning up how these things work is always gonna lead to the issue theyve got right now.

[@1thedanfan949]

True

[@Inurantchan]

I think arguing feet is really the only worthwhile argument for this particular instance simply because: the illusion discs are just an illusion. They don’t change what toes/feet the original animatronic has. If we were talking about the character fitting somewhere, that’s a different conversation for the same reason as above.

[@bryangiron5354]

Because there’s an endo skeleton the toes feet and finger are the only real absolutes of the body. The illusion wraps around the endo so things like the number of limbs can’t be changed only the appearance of them if that makes sense

[@hodgiaparnell3307]

The illusion disk wouldn't change the footprint the animatronic would leave behind but yes I agree the body shape wouldn't matter. Still... how certain are we that scott actually cares about how many toes his animatronics have and keeping that consistant throughout retcons of his own lore (after dream theory and all).

[@nicholasprovencher7360]

38:32 - let’s assume that these discs function the same way as sub-sonic signals. The subsonic signals do not create illusions, but influence the brain to create illusions on its own. If Afton figured out how to tune these to lure children, then fun time Freddy wouldn’t be creating the image of golden Freddy, but encouraging the victim to see him as their favorite character, which just so happens to be golden Freddy. If FTF was seen by Michael as well, he would be seeing foxy instead, since that’s what he wants to see

Like 5 kids follow some dude into a random employees' only room with a camera outside the room seeing everything going down and the 5 kids don't come back out and are said to be dead and they don't think to be like, "Oh yeah you know that dude with the obviously purple skin in the spring bonnie suit that lured a bunch of kids into the backroom and the children never came back out? Yeah, that dude might've just killed them".

@@honestlytrash6654 well the distinction here is they actually DO think it's him. But they neither have proof of what exactly he did nor if he even was the one in the costume, so he just gets to walk away out of technicality

I could sit and watch them debate forever. THIS is what I wanted during the livestream - intense lore conversation.

[@swimmingbabushka3224]

I love the pauses as they (contemplate their life choices) try to process the absurdities each other are saying

[@ZealStarMedia]

I appreciate that John not only asks questions, but reevaluates his own theories and can critique himself.

[@tangyorange_]

i think john is super lucky to be able to have these kind of conversations about the things he's really into. Sure there are plenty of disagreements between them but being able to bounce off these ideas and theories is already so fun and validating.

[@everlyscut9788]

Between Layers of Fear coming back, Sonic’s death not being solved, and Ruin DLC teaser releasing, this came out of left field. Good surprise attack 👌

[@PKMNmastercass]

Layers of fear is coming back!?! The first layers of fear is my favorite psychological horror game!

[@unicornilluminati9019]

Layers of Fear is back?????

[@everlyscut9788]

Yeah! H20Delerious did a video on the new demo of it! I hope Gtlive does a video on it, it’s my favorite steam series that they’ve done

[@purplecat6578]

After listening to the conversation with more interest, it seems this was recorded before the final part of the timeline. I haven’t checked, but when they show the KZbin page it might reveal when this was recorded. Might have been a little late in the editing oven

[@everlyscut9788]

Word

[@a5tr4l]

My interpretation: -William is who we play as -Michael is who was in their room and broke out through the window -he saw Golden Freddy standing outside but then vanish (since we know it can do that) and that’s what that pair of footprints was. -the trail of footprints belonged to Michael walking off to visit his little brother’s grave (the pile of dirt) believing that the Golden Freddy sighting and his brother are connected.

[@AAAAAA-nw1tx]

I've always thought the Funtimes were the very clear parallels to the "Twisted" animatronics, so it's interesting to see Mat arguing that it's actually the nightmares.

Seems like it was recorded before the final timeline part as they mention it not being released yet, unless Mat is remaking the timeline for some reason

[@amandadadesky5192]

​@@purplecat6578 Well, the existence of the Mimic might be enough to make Mat and the team redo the whole kit and caboodle. . .

[@eframps]

I love how much you guys welcome and celebrate other creators taking up room in this space you carved out

[@Magic261]

We see in the books and graphic novel that illusion disc's can make them appear human. This would make sense for the footsteps changing from animatronic to human in the midnight motorist minigame.

[@Wandervenn]

Yes Jon. Keep making him continue the video! We need someone to slap Matt's hand away from the spacebar sometimes

[@Hilo-gk3ix]

37:32 The silence before matpat just cracks and starts dying laughing is taking me out 😂.

[@BrightBlueInk]

I'm surprised that with the debate at the end nobody brought up that the Vengeful Spirit is also known as "The One You Should Not Have Killed." I don't think Crying Child can be the Vengeful Spirit because he's the only dead kid that's appeared up until UCN whose death WASN'T because of Afton. (unless you argue that he indirectly is because of just being a Bad Dad Soccer Dad, but compared to literally every other dead kid who was killed by Afton or Baby, Afton's robot...)

[@jamesknott5255]

I’m only about 30 minutes in at this point, and the only thing killing me is I wish John would be more confident in his own theory. It’s like he’s just “expecting” Matt to pick his theory apart. You literally see it repeatedly. I like where he’s going with Fun Time Freddy luring the “crying child” theory so far.

[@dr_awesome_1010]

Haha, this trio will never get old I swear (plus the voice in Matt's head, can't forget about her)

[@miyumixxx]

Afton saying "I will put you back together" after the bite makes more sense if crying child is already a robot. Who puts a human back together? It makes more sense to put a broken robot back together. While William is out killing Charlie, human crying child is lured out of his room and is killed. This is after Elizabeth died, but since she already inhabited Baby, she cannot be 'put back together" in the same way crying child can. Crying child is a failed experiment during fnaf 4 because his brother gets him "killed". Idk, its a wild theory. This is going entirely off of the video so this is just me assuming based off of their points.

[@abbiphilippe7901]

This trio is absolute chaos and I love it 😂

[@royal9657]

I can imagine Scott laughing hard at every theory that is super remote, then one day he'll go "you know what, that is an interesting idea" and then its in the lore officially

[@matthewc4024]

Like in the twisted ones, who captures Charlie in the main series: Lefty. This also fits with John’s idea of how the story fits in terms of Scott’s story telling, and Lefty is very similar looking to Funtime Freddy. Just a thought.

[@NasirRussell-nb7cj]

Matt, pat could always make me laugh when I’m feeling sad

[@jeaniedw83]

I love how much fun you guys have with this, I love when y'all get together it's absolutely entertaining.

[@tsundasphere]

I could happily watch hours of this xD I really hope they make more behind the scenes theorycrafting videos!

[@jocelynryan5335]

I love seeing John on the couch with MatPat and Tom. I still love this theory and just how well it works with the info. I hope to see more from John in the future and hope he can see past the hate from this theory to everyone that supports the love and effort into his version of the lore.
