How They Fixed the WORST FNaF Fangame | Dormitabis Remastered [CHECK DESCRIPTION]

UPDATES IN DESCRIPTION!
-----------------------
FINAL UPDATE: 18/04/2024
I was just made aware that the new dev team behind Dormitabis Remastered has also been terrible.
Ranging from edgy "jokes" and comments, harassment of other fangame communities and even their own voice actors, these are all things I obviously don't support.
Please read Sparky's (Garvey VA) final post on the matter: x.com/TheSparky556/status/178...
I wish I knew that it would turn out like this BEFORE I made the video, but unfortunately these accusations only came out AFTER the video released.
The video does not have monetization (it never had even before this situation), as even before the new information came out I was never comfortable making money off "Dormitabis" as a topic.
The video will remain up because of the effort I've put into it's creation, being my first major project on KZbin and something I'd like to keep.
Every link to the game has been removed and I urge you not to play it.
Thank you and I apologize for any issue caused.

It will never not be funny to me that the way the team fixed dormtiabes's story, gameplay, etc is simply by removing anything blackout had any involvement in. Despite his monstrous ego on just "how much better he was than those OTHER girl- I MEAN, fandevs..." he was the sole reason why the og story fell apart lol.

I’ve said this once and I will say this again. The old Dormatabis should never be forgotten, I am a firm believer that it needs to stay as a monument to what terrible things people can do in a community. It’s a disgusting, foul and sickening mark on this community. But it needs to stay. But I’m glad the remake was able to turn that filth into a legitimately good project. My praise to the developers.

[@thefatbob3710]

For how big of a peice of human shit the dev was, the original dormitabis wasn’t all that bad, everything about it was unsettling and gorey the world was distorted and warped into a hellhole and it did a good job at making the animatronics scary by making them look lifeless.

I’m glad they referenced that nightmare of an Easter egg in that kind of way it’s a neat nod to a really bullshit Easter egg (that still in a sense is really funny that someone would be so mad at you for not listening that they choose to ruin your entire play through) , though story wise it’s quite sad considering the circumstance being that he kills himself as a last resort and last act of resistance towards Garvey .

[@theflyingspaget]

I don't think it was poorly thought out? It was punishing players for skipping out on the lore. I mean it says "quiet, for you to concentrate" and honestly that's kinda funny? And fitting? You're playing as Peter's lifeline and if you hang up he hangs up too. :P

[@parasitophobia]

@@theflyingspaget Imo, I don’t really consider it poorly thought out, I just think it’s stupid and unfair despite the concept being pretty neat lol , it ruins the fucking gameplay experience considering how heavily it relies on noise.

[@suly5836]

Garvey went from the worst fangame purple guy to not only one of the best but also one of the most tragic, his entire motives were completely plausible, a lonely man who finally found happiness, just for some brats to almost taking it away from him, letting his hatred consume him whole and turn him into a monster.

[@sylvan-necromancer]

@@leandrofrancoquintoano9151 Because paedophilia and sexual abuse in general (and ESPECIALLY towards children) is an incredibly delicate topic, because for victims it's something that they never truly mentally recover from and often spirals into various other mental health problems. And having the topic brought up when they least expect it (like when they're playing a videogame), especially when it has some fetishistic undertones can bring those horrible memories to the forefront, which a horrible experience and might even harm their recovery. Even for people who aren't victims of sexual abuse, it's still VERY discomforting in a bad way, as it shatters your immersion as you instinctively step back and think "Woah, why the fuck did they put that in the game? That's just... vile. How did the developer(s) think that was okay?". Player immersion is something you NEVER want to break in a horror game, and this sort of thing is how your game gets an F in terms of maintaining it. TL;DR: Sexual abuse in any form is a very difficult topic to cover, especially for those who aren't victims of it themselves and/or don't have experience in the field of psychology, and as such is best off never being incorporated into any sort of media without a group of people who have are victims of it and people with qualifications in relevant fields to provide insight and advice to make sure your work is not offensive or misleading about the subject, as is the case with traumatic and/or disturbing topics in general.

Hey, Im one of the original victims of Blackout and after watching this I can really say that this is a fantastic remaster of a fangame that had a lot of potential. From the aesthetic and all the way down, it's cool to see it get the recognition it deserves and no longer be associated with Nicchi. I left a comment on the KZbinr HazyGray's video about how I was one of the original victim's that Nicchi Groomed and it has surprised me that my interactions with him are the ones getting the most recognition compared to the others he has groomed. Needless to say, I am very glad this remaster is no longer associated with him and it is being redone in a better way than it has before. Great analysis video, keep up the good work.

[@ItsKynn]

I hope you're doing better, the Blackout situation was absolutely vile... But hey, also glad you enjoyed the video, hopefully the new game can maybe mean Blackout is finally forgotten and you and the other victims can rest assured he doesn't have the audience to do that shit again.

Fun fact there is supposedly a secret ending that I haven't seen, but Expelled has talked about it on their Gamejolt and I am pretty sure it does exist. It involves looking at certain places in the offices at certain times during certain nights but idk. Either way awesome video.

[@dormitarchive]

it does exist, it's called "your ending" and i'm not sure if anyone really knows how to get it yet, or if it's even still in the game. what ended up happening was that someone found out about it and expelled felt pressured to show it off, and then got a ton of negative feedback. he hasn't said anything about it since. it's possible that he even removed it in an update and didn't say anything. because the status of the third ending is contested, i might as well share what i know about it. you're supposed to find 3 specific easter eggs, click on all of the posters on the cams on a specific night, and then type "BITE" at 11 am on night 11. it then takes you to a garvey-esque boss fight where you have to face off against a character called "the bite". you can't use the computer and have to rely completely on sound. it's also very dark. when you beat the boss fight, it shows an alternative cardboard theater cutscene where fritz smith replaces garvey and you watch a carboard theater re-enactment of the bite of 83, followed by a jumpscare from fredbear. my own interpretation of the ending is pretty simple, though i don't actually know the lore that well. it's hinting at the fact that john, who you play as, is crying child. the fredbear jumpscare combined with the name "your ending" is basically john re-living what happened that day. as for fritz, it's possibly hinting at the fact that fritz was the night guard at the time and witnessed it happening without doing anything. the credits roll and the text is green instead of red. i have a VERY low quality recording of this ending uploaded to my channel, and had a better recording of it somewhere but i can't find it. if i find it, i will try to upload it. again, it's very possible that there are more steps to getting the ending than i know. it's also possible that it was removed, or never really existed in the first place.

But just because it can work doesn't mean it will unless the story teller is extremely good at what they do! The writer for the 2018 version of the game...

[@TheDigitizedSignPainter]

IT'S REAL, IT'S FINISHED, AND IT'S GOOD??? I'm glad I exist in the timeline where the original creator gets nothing but flak and then some, while some talented and passionate people banded together and stuffed this game through a rock tumbler; grinding and sanding away all that it was, making it something smoothed and polished. The diamond in the rough, a f@#$ing masterpiece, that can finally leave the original as nothing more than leftover dust and powder in the tumbler, ready to be blown into the wind to eternally drift, forgotten forevermore.

[@DjDeadpig]

The funny thing about the old dormitabis is that if you look past the story, models and creator, I’m sure it would pass off as an alright 2018 fangame I also have a lot of respect for you about how you handled the original fangame in this video. I do think saying the old version is “the WORST FNaF Fangame” is a little extreme (I’d opt for something like controversial) but I like how you described the original and didn’t immediately start shitting all over the original because of Nicchi like most fnaf reviewers do nowadays, who forget that it was put through development hell and that Nicchi wasn’t the sole creator of dormitabis, but was rather the publisher and story writer so you having a more mediocre/middle of the road of opinion on the original to me is a breath of fresh air due to all the drama bait fnaf reviewers who don’t care about what their reviewing but only want to start drama or reignite old drama.

FNAF lore didn't "forget", the FNAF3 ending just isn't that important anymore. Everything we originally thought it accomplished was done by FNAF6 instead, with the possible exception of freeing the MCI souls... and we're not even 100% sure it did that. It's an event that fandom keeps going back to because it's just easier to work with than utilizing FNAF6, which doesn't leave much wiggle room for fan-content.

I am so, so happy that it really did end up being just that. Three cheers to the remaster!

[@TheSparky556]

This. This is what I wanted to do the remaster for. When I was younger and I took the first game as a VA gig I was very young, and really thought I was making something big, and looking back I couldn’t be further from correct on that. Yet everywhere I went I would still see people that liked the original, that enjoyed my ass performance somehow and I could never understand it. I wanted to reprise my role because I wanted to give the people that liked the original something they can be proud to like, give them the great game they thought they already had, and it makes me so unbelievably happy that I managed to do it along with the rest of the team. I want to say that it was my absolute pleasure to come back and do this character right, and it was such a pleasure to record those lines for you :) If you ever need anyone to do silly voices in any other videos, Garvey or not, I would be more than happy to lol Someday I hope to write a completely new Dormitabis and make a whole different game to see what could have been with a version of the character I’ve been imagining for quite a while now (a version of him that I definitely took inspiration from for this new rendition) but until then I’m glad I was able to give everyone a helluva performance. Amazing video Kynn! (And I definitely pronounced it wrong on purpose in the tape hyuck hyuck)

sparky i think i can speak for everyone when i say that your performance really ties everything together. even in the original, in my opinion, you were able to portray garvey as a sick and fucked up character, and the people who think it's too "edgy" are often times the same people who misinterpret garvey's character as a self insert of nicchi. great work, and the voice lines you provided for this video were a pleasant surprise.
